SOLD: Warmoth/Alpher Instruments Jazz Bass with East Mid Sweep £780 Manchester

[Dolando]

Hello, 

Here is a rare chance to get a bit of an Alpher feeling bass for a fraction of the price! This was put together and finished by me with top quality parts and finished with Tru-Oil. It's in great condition apart from a couple of dings (pictured) and is a great sounding bass! I'm only selling this as I don't play 4 string much, so this doesn't get played as much as it should. 

It's an Pau Ferro/Ebony Alpher Instruments neck (£450) which i had made, and if you don't know the name it is built i UK to a very high standard! The body is a Warmoth Alder Jazz bass body with flame maple laminate top (cost around £320). It has Tonerider Jazz Pickups which I intended to put in to get it going, but sound great so I left them in. The electronics are Volume, Volume, East Mid Sweep, Passive Tone and is a bit of a hybrid active/passive setup which really works. 

The rest of the hardware is Hipshot so all in all some top quality parts all round. Any questions feel free to send me a message. 

£780 Collection from Manchester (£25 Delivery Cost)

Not normally a fancy woods type person, but that is stunning! Do you know the weight?

Thank you. Not off the top of my head, but I don’t feel it’s overally heavy. I can weigh it tonight if you like?

Warmoth parts are top notch, so is the hardware, so is the neck. This must sound just awesome.

It does! Just don’t use it as much as I should. I’m a 5 string man!

Excellent pics - do it justice. I note the string pull on the head, nice - all looking rather tasty to me.
