Brusen Posted March 14, 2019 Posted March 14, 2019 (edited) Hello basschatters, Selling my truly unique Celinder J Classic 4 - "DownScaled". It is the only one of its kind, build and delivered to me by Chris Celinder in Copenhagen. Specs for the bass: Birth date - April 2017 Olympic White alder body (aged 12 years +) Maple Neck with Rio board 32,25" Scale length Celinder handwound pickups Hipshot Drop-D on E-string (regular tuning head is incl.) Passive circuit What's special about this baby is its slightly smaller body (US Sadowsky-style), and medium scale length. The bass weighs 4kg according to my scale, has that great 60s Jazz bass sound, and it plays effortlessly! Price as new was GBP3981 (invoice present), and it's still in a beautiful near mint condition. I’d like to keep it only I’m not using it enough to justify keeping it. I don't have a hardcase for it, but will pack it carefully, or may ship in a Mooradian gigbag. Please contact me for a shipping quote - bass is located in Copenhagen. - Price drop to GBP2300 // 2680Euro Reasonable offers welcomed, but not interested in trades, happy viewing!

johnbiffa Posted March 14, 2019 Posted March 14, 2019 Beautiful example of a true luthier's art. I have had 3 and regret selling them !!!!! GLWTS
funkle Posted March 17, 2019 Posted March 17, 2019 My goodness. How can you sell this? Just gorgeous.
molan Posted March 17, 2019 Posted March 17, 2019 Wow, a passive medium scale Celinder. How cool! I think I still have an original Celinder pre-amp kicking around somewhere as well!
Brusen Posted March 24, 2019 Author Posted March 24, 2019 Cheers! - Price drop to GBP2500 // 3000Euro
AndyTravis Posted March 24, 2019 Posted March 24, 2019 Aww no way I could’ve sworn @three would’ve bought this by now!?
three Posted March 25, 2019 Posted March 25, 2019 (edited) It was a new boiler or this. I’d have put a coat on but there was an alternative perpective. A strongly held view. Beautiful - breed apart Edited March 31, 2019 by three
fingerz Posted April 3, 2019 Posted April 3, 2019 Beautiful and unique bass. I love way Celinder builds and designs. By the way, a 2017 bass - I am encouraged to see he is still producing instruments to some capacity. Good luck with the sale. 1
Misdee Posted April 3, 2019 Posted April 3, 2019 Stunning bass! The medium scale makes it even more special. GLWTS.
molan Posted April 4, 2019 Posted April 4, 2019 (edited) When you say it’s a Rio fingerboard is that Madagascar rosewood? Also - are the tuners the larger style ones or the little Hipshot lite versions? I think I’ve had both on previous Celinders. Amazing the difference the lites can make to overall weight and balance! Edited April 4, 2019 by molan Added question.
Brusen Posted April 5, 2019 Author Posted April 5, 2019 Thanks for the kind words! molan - it was setup with HB3s, vintage tuners. Amazing playability! Cheers!
