Oh, I love this bass. It feels like home, but my band is moving into the mod circuit (when things open up!) and I've had the good fortune to acquire a stonkin' Ric so sadly, Betsy and I must part ways.

It was my gigging bass until lock down, so it shows some wear and tear (see photos) but not too bad. It comes strung with Fender flats. Also includes the fantastic bass centre gig bag, which is one of the best standard gig bags I've used. Tools and hang tags too. Also included is a signed copy of Guy Pratt's book as well!

Really like the look of these basses. Great colour!
I already have enough Jazz basses, or I'd be sorely tempted by this.

If you haven't read Guy Pratt's book BTW (as pictured above) - I would highly recommend it, in fact, It's my fave book by a bass player, and lots of fun :)

Would have prized this from you if I hadn't just bought exactly same bass from Bass Centre. Excellent price and excellent bass, some one is going to get a lot of bass!

Sorry to derail your for sale thread, but what are you using for the spacers on the E & A strings?

Ezbass....round head lock nuts. I always use them with strings that have long silks....to keep them off the saddles.

I purchased mine directly from the Bass Centre....since they're close. Barry was great to deal with. They have remnants of Who and Kinks flight cases everywhere. Cool stuff.

I’m using drilled out, ball ends for the same reason.
