Hellzero Posted May 22, 2020 Share Posted May 22, 2020 (edited) Due to severe back problems (66% officially disabled because of it) and right shoulder injury (non-operable capsulitis from which, after more than 3 years, I will never fully recover), I'm selling all my basses over 4.5 kilos. I've also considerably lowered the price for a quick sale due the "modification". LAURUS Quasar SL 190 Grafite 6 Fretless with modified "headstock" thanks to some delicate courier. See below the link with the explanations. Price is set accordingly and even for Pierluigi CAZZOLA (LAURUS owner), it's a nice work that suits the bass. Straight sale only, no trades at all ! Asking price including shipping fully insured with tracking number to your place in these European countries (ask for other countries) : Austria, Belgium, Bulgaria, Croatia, Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France (excluding French overseas departments and territories), Germany, Hungary, Italy, Latvia, Lithuania, Luxemburg, Monaco, Netherlands, Poland, Portugal, Romania, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain, Sweden and United Kingdom : £1150 GBP !!! (new price at the time with the original "headstock" was around £4500 GBP...) In fully working condition and very good overall condition. Here are the specifications : Body : mahogany body with tonal chambers (the most expensive model) Neck : 5 pieces neck through maple and purple heart Fingerboard : real graphite (carbon, if you prefer) Fretless : 24 positions Headstock : headless with massive brass ABM headpiece Pickup : Bartolini radiused made to measure for Laurus Preamp : Bartolini TCT Controls : volume with push-pull for active/passive, bas, mids and treble Tuners : at the bridge as it's headless Bridge : 2 pieces Laurus Strings spacing at bridge : 19 mm Nut : brass Strings spacing at nut : 9.5 mm Knobs : original Laurus Scale : 34" Hardware colour : black with gold headpiece Truss rod : 1 (fully working) Finish : transparent gloss Land of craftsmanship : Italy Serial number : QSL0400516 Year : 2004 Weight : 4.6 kilos Action : from 1.5 mm under the C string to 2.5 mm under the B string at the octave (can go lower, but was perfect for me) Will come with the original normally used Laurus gigbag. Non-smoking environment as usual. I'm only selling this Laurus SL 190 Grafite 6 fretless because of my health issues, the modified "headstock" having turned it into a perfectly balanced bass. And it sings wonderfully with loads of mwah and that typical Bartolini fretless sound. The bass has been fully set up professionally by Christophe LEDUC. It has a new battery and is fitted with a (now) used set of Elixir nickel plated Nanoweb coating strings (32 - 45 - 65 - 80 - 100 - 130), which fit the bass to perfection. Link to the explanations about the modified "headstock" : For those interested, it will come with the remains of the headstock without the headpieces, but wit the Laurus logo. What you see is what you get ! Look at the pictures taken under different angles to see the real very good condition and the usual marks. Don't hesitate to ask for more.

Chris2112 Posted May 22, 2020 Share Posted May 22, 2020 What are those little stud things on the bass side of the body? I've seen them on other Laurus basses. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hellzero Posted May 22, 2020 Author Share Posted May 22, 2020 It's a chambered body, so these are the "f-holes". There are also 2 under the truss rod cover. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
