(SOLD) MTD USA 535-24 - Dark Cherry Burst £3000 Barcelona

[charlie_groove]

Due to an unprecedented GAS attack, I put on sale what has long been my most precious bassic weapon. A marvelous MTD USA 535-24. This basses achieve an unquestionable quality and they have a wonderful sound. Everyone, absolutely all the sound tech guys I have worked with since I got it has praised the sound, the punch, the depth and the definition of this bass. And on top it is versatile as few. Please do not offer me changes since I want the money to catch another MTD. I reserve the right to withdraw it from the sale if the bass I am following is sold before. Price doesn't include shipping or insurance.

Features:
Model: 535
Year 2009

Woods:
Body: Ash
Neck: Maple
Fingerboard: Maple
Finish: Dark Cherry Burst

Dimensions / Specifications
Strings: 5
Scale: 35
String spacing: 19 mm
Number of frets: 24
Tuning: Buzz Feiten System
Hardware: Hipshot USA
Pickups and preamp: Bartolini (manufactured exclusively for MTD)

Weight: 4,6 kg

The bass is in very good condition, has the logical wear on the pickups because of the use, and between the pickups on the wood, a mark of thumb rest. Otherwise it is perfect, including the frets that allow a very low action without fret buzz, and I deliver it with the following extras:
-Custom knobs: precious, such as those on the highest ranges of MTD, purchased directly from Q-Parts in the USA.
-Original MTD gig bag
-Jim Dunlop safety locks
-RightOn! strap, high quality, matching the instrument
-Fret Warp by Gruv Gear

And some videos so you can hear how this machine sounds:

 

 

 

Well, this is your chance to have a bass guitar build by one of the most legendary luthiers, Michael Tobias, and one of the most exclusive brands in the market. Do not let it go!!!

Hey my friend! Yes, it's a killer instrument, thanks for the video. It is an unbelievable instrument and plays like heaven, hope not to regret about selling it. I just sell it because I'm after another MTD that I'm in love with, and I already have another 535, it make no sense to have three of 535 basses, I'm not rich

Oh you are very kind my friend. I'm blushed! Thank you. I don't think I deserve those extremely nice words but I hope that the new owner of this bass can enjoy it as much as I've been enjoying it.
