Tune Technology 6 for Sale/Trade Price Drop SOLD £825 East Anglia

[Gaucho 5]

  Sold to DEEPBASS, very nice chap, will love it I'm certain! Tune Technology: these were originally built in a well-known factory in Japan and quite sought after. The company split and one group started manufacturing these elsewhere Korea or Indonesia not sure? These were not as highly revered due to the lower rent hardware used in this change-over period. This has a Japanese body and neck rescued from the factory with superior fittings most added by the original owner:  Mk2 Bart pickups, Glock 3 band Pre, Gotoh tuners, Schaller bridge, brass nut! 19 mm spacing, extremely slim neck,  24 frets, Flamed Maple top. Couple of small marks in the back of the body, but in excellent nick, neck is ultra-slim! Unfortunately I've not found the time to progress with 6 strings , as nine years after changing exclusively to 5'vers I'm still learning! Cash is King, but I could find room for a another Lakland or Jazzy , maybe PBass 5'ver? will trade up or down, Collection or nearby meet only.

Ah, if I didn't already have one of these....

I'll just say that, for anyone looking for a 6-er, this is one helluva bass! Glwts.

Hi Stingray,

                    Couldn't agree more and thanks buddy! Took me a long time to find something with the 19mm string spacing and a slim. playable neck to dip my toe in with a 6'er!

Amazingly low price for such a good bass! Have another bump.

[Gaucho 5]

I think so, and thanks for the bump

[Bassbandit]

These tunes are stunning to look at and play aswell as any high end bass out there. And that price is criminal for the jpn models.its a shame that necks scares me more than the mrs running at me with a strap on 🤣

[Gaucho 5]

Thanks Bassbandit…… How fast can you run???

The neck incidentally albeit wide is extremely slim, if you prefer 19mm spacing it is easy to get on with.

TBH I was gobsmacked as my shoulder made it the second lightest bass I've owned in years, only a Jabba Custom I had felt lighter! Must be the balance of the instrument?

Gaucho

[Oldman]

Yo, maybe I’m missing it, what scale length amigo?

Thanks

[Gaucho 5]

Hi Oldham,

                      It's 34in buddy, Also I think its a tad lighter than I said.....duff scales???

Gaucho

[Oldman]

Thanks, it’s 35” I’m looking for. GLWTS

[Gaucho 5]

Having a bit of a mare with weights & measures!

From inside the top nut to the front of the bridge saddles I make it 34.25 as with a Jabba for example, take it to the string appearing up to the lower section of the saddle (just above the speaking length) it is 35?

So I would say 34.25?

Gaucho

I’d be over it in a heartbeat if I could just manage to sell the ones I have for sale. Japanese Tunes are incredible.

[visog]

So if your Tune is out of tune is a quantum dissonance created? (Asking for a friend.)

[Gaucho 5]

Will give it a play as it's been in its case for a while now and unlikely to be in tune, that and randomly wiggle those peg things at the end of the neck, then see what happens...…..stand by??????
