Boodang Posted September 22, 2021 Posted September 22, 2021 (edited) This is a modern Tobias Toby made by Epiphone. I acquired this bass in 2019 when working away from home and just needed something for practice and the odd gig. Considering the price was most surprised by how well it performed. It has a decent neck with good upper fret access (certainly better than a standard Fender) and due to the use of radiata wood for the body (a type of pine!), is very light, so good for long gigs. Despite the light wood it has a very solid sound and performed well live. Currently strung with D'addario nylon strings. Comes with a standard TGI abs hard case. The bass is in very good condition with no discernable scratches or dings. Free collection or £15 postage in UK. Edited November 16, 2021 by Boodang 2
Newfoundfreedom Posted September 22, 2021 Posted September 22, 2021 Great price. The case alone is probably worth half the asking price. 1
Boodang Posted September 22, 2021 Author Posted September 22, 2021 Came across this bass by accident, it was the only one available at the time, but it's actually really nice. If I wasn't overloaded with basses already I'd keep it. Also, I'm moving over to 5 string fretted and only keeping my 4 string fretless basses. It plays really well, so much so that an upgrade in pickups would take it from good to great. Given the price Tobias are doing these for I think they're quite the bargain. 1
