[woolf]

Time to shift another bass that’s not getting enough use. The build quality of this is phenomenal. Great neck with Ebony fingerboard that is soooo dark!

It’s in superb condition, a small paint chip (circled) is the worst of it. A thumb rest has been added which can be removed but will leave two screw holes.

It’s been modded with a John East preamp that contains vol, pickup pan, bass, treble, mid, mid freq and separate piezo blend, piezo tone, Active / passive switch.

33.75” scale

19mm string spacing

EDIT - Now includes Hiscox Liteflite hard case (not the one pictured).

£975 > Now £950 delivered in the UK.

This looks in truly great shape for a bass of its vintage and they don't come up that often!

Could you let us know the weight and year of manufacture please?

[woolf]

The serial number is H31035 which I believe dates this to 1991.

The weight is 4.65 kg.

Feel free to try me via PM but I’m really after a sale on this.

Too heavy for me these days but this exact model was top 3 on my teens / early 20s wish list. Beautiful. GLTWS

Someone asked about the preamp - not installed during my stewardship but I believe it’s a Uni-pre model. If anyone knows what the numbers mean then please share 👍.
