jaccjazz Posted May 12, 2019 Share Posted May 12, 2019 (edited) £1750.00 collected. Insured shipping would add another £70.00. Mouse 30 Walnut Fretted Short Scale Bass. I purchased this gorgeous hand-made instrument from Basschatter Grantd, a few months ago. It was pretty much in mint condition then and still is, having not been gigged or taken out at all. However, in spite of how much I love this bass, I need to rationalise the collection and this isn’t getting the use it should. This Mouse features an alder body/eastern walnut top with faux tortoiseshell binding, an eastern walnut neck/Indian rosewood fingerboard with integrated thumb-rest, and matching Indian rosewood bridge. The Mouse 30 Fretted produces the same full rich tone as the Mouse 30 fretless but for players that prefer a fretted instrument. It comes with a nicely fitting semi-rigid Protec gig bag. 30" scale Neck woods- black walnut, mahogany Mandolin sized frets 1 5/8" nut 23/32" string spacing at bridge Semi-hollow body design with solid centre block Fully shielded body cavity Body finish: polyurethane modified oil Neck finish: nitrocellulose lacquer Single volume control integrated in bridge Fishman preamp & piezo pickup La Bella 760n black nylon wrap strings Hipshot Ultralight tuners Weight 5.5 lbs. Celluloid nitrate binding on body Overall instrument length 38" Integrated thumbrest Edited May 30, 2019 by jaccjazz 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheGreek Posted May 18, 2019 Share Posted May 18, 2019 Like many others who attended last years SE Bash I played @Frank Blank's - amazing little bass. Now if I had a spare £1750 lying around.. GLWTS 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
