jay-syncro Posted May 9, 2022 Share Posted May 9, 2022 (edited) Maruszczyk Elwood TCS in great condition up for grabs. I understand that TCS stands for Tone Chamber System. The body is made of three pieces of Ash, the middle one being hollow. This results in a lovely resonant body with reduced weight. It also looks cool with the dark veneers between the ash layers! The neck is a lovely looking piece of quarter sawn maple (check out that fretboard figuring), and it features a zero fret. It has a Glockenklang preamp (with active/passive switch) and Delano pickups. It sounds excellent with a lively jazz character in active mode and it also has a great punchy passive tone. The pickup pan pot has been replaced and the frets have been polished. The volume pot is slightly scratchy when first moved but that clears after a couple of turns. It weighs around 3.8kg/8.4lb and comes with the Maruszczyk gig bag. Here's a clip of a similar bass in action - Collection from Margate or I can box it up if you'd like to arrange a courier. Better photos to come! Edited May 24, 2022 by jay-syncro 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MungoBass Posted May 11, 2022 Share Posted May 11, 2022 I keep looking at this! Does it have a 40mm nut and 14” radius? Carbon rods? Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've just checked and it's 38mm at the nut. I'm unsure of the radius but it's certainly flatter than a vintage style Fender. No idea if it has carbon rods I'm afraid.
