Up for sale or trade is my stunning Shuker Single Cut built in Jan 2014. I traded my Conklin Custom for this bass in 2016 with LukeCapon off here. Jon Shuker makes some very high quality basses and this is no exception on the design, fit and finish. A new one of these would set you back around £3k. It is in excellent condition with only minor marks / swirls from playing and comes with a hard case.

I'm open to partial / full trades. Let’s see what ya' got.

  • Alder body with buckeye facings and black veneer between top and body
  • 34" scale currently tuned B to G
  • Angled headstock with buckeye veneer - front and rear
  • Gotoh tuners
  • 7 piece maple / black veneer laminated set neck. 20.5mm deep at 1st fret, 22.5 at 12th, shallow 'C' section
  • Two way truss rod with carbon fibre reinforcement
  • Rosewood fretboard with 26 medium frets and 45mm brass nut
  • Mother of pearl face and side dots
  • Nordstrand Big Split pickups
  • Shuker 3 band preamp: treble, mid cut / boost and mid freq stack, bass, pan, vol (pull passive)
  • Schaller 2000 bridge, set at 18mm string spacing (can adjust from 17 to 19mm)
  • Weight 8.6lbs / 3.9kg

I really love the Single cut "melting down" into the neck at the back of the isntrument. Love to do that too. Very fine work. But the more I see from J Shuker, the more I it's stunning...

Very nice! 

What are you particularly keen on trade wise? 

Good question 👍  I'm not really after 4 strings, mainly 5's but might be persuaded for the right 6. Preference for 24 fret, active eq, 2 pickup. I'd like to try a Sadowsky Modern out at some point, maybe another Smith, Sei, Status or Mike Lull. Not really interested in Fender, Musicman or Warwick. I'm ok for amps and cabs but Vanderkley as px might be nice 🙂

Vanderkley cabs are indeed a treat! :)
