*TRADED* FT/FS Overwater Perception Pro Deluxe Custom 5 String £1200 London

[Arnoldas]

*It has gone to a new home*

EDIT - Now for sale as well!

Hi all, I'm looking to have a trade with this beautiful Overwater Perception 5, give me some shouts if you fancy! I may sell this later on if no trades come my way, but atm I'm in no rush to do so.

I'm mainly looking to trade for Musicman 5 string basses, but anything that you think fits the trade, send it over!

 

I don't drive unfortunately, therefore its hard for me to meet outside of London very far. Although we can chat.

 

The Custom in it's name means the bass having a non-standart bridge to what was offered at the time. In 2015 the bass was sent to Chris May at Overwater for some TLC who gave the bass a full service, upgraded preamp and fitted the wooden ramp between pups.

 

I have not changed anything in its set-up since I purchased it, simply do to it being set up perfectly. I have only changed strings which are La Bella's stainless steel 45-128 series. And put dot sticker markers on the fretboard because I was just used to them. They can be taken off easily if needed!

That is amazing. A really, really great price too.

 

I’ve been on the lookout for a 6-string version like this but the ones I’ve been offered are either way, way overpriced or bright red …or something else too gnarly for my tastes.

 

GLWTS.

Really fabulous instruments... The preamp is one of my favourites. Personally, I'd never trade down from one of these to a Musicman (great but factory produced) but, hey, we like what we like!
