kristo Posted October 13, 2019 Posted October 13, 2019 (edited) I love these basses, and this is my third....... However I've been lured out of electric guitar retirement and need some money to buy an amp. Plus my wife has made it quite clear to me that having three of the same bass is pretty ridiculous. Epiphone Masterbilt DeLuxe Century archtop bass in mint condition. Fitted with the stock strings D'addario strings, and original piezo pickup. I'm not a fan of piezo pickups so never used them, however I know some people can make them work for what they want. These basses play well and look super cool, so I had some dialog with Aaron at Kent Armstrong pickups about other options. He has wound custom floating pickups for my other two basses, which give the lovely warm, thuddy tone that I requested. I will include the original black prototype he made with this bass, along with a little wooden wedge that helps when fitting it. I am looking for £350 for this, and would much rather it be collected from Beccles, Suffolk. However I have a box if that is not an option. I will also include another set of the stock D'addario Black Nylon strings. Edited October 1, 2020 by kristo 7
oldslapper Posted October 16, 2019 Posted October 16, 2019 What scale are these? Love the look, so cool.

AndyTravis Posted October 16, 2019 Posted October 16, 2019 I want this. She’d snip my Jacobs off if I buy another bass this year 😂 4
