Arnoldoc Posted September 22, 2022 Share Posted September 22, 2022 (edited) Offering my Moollon P-Classic bass as thinning out my P bass collection (I mainly play jazz basses). These are usually going for over $4k in the US and have a 3-4 year waiting list for new orders. Considered by many to be the best substitutes for pre-CBS basses (together with Olinto) at a fraction of the price; used by players such as Tim Lefebvre, Michael League, Scott Divine, Richard Bona, and Jonathan Maron. Everything is hand made and in-house including the pickups, nitro finishing, hardware using the same 1960s alloy, etc. 3.8kg / 8.3lbs Full specs here http://www.moollon.com/front/product/product_list.php?code=003 Have had it since new. It's in very good condition and has not been played much. The ultra thin nitro finish is starting to check/crack in some places as expected, no scratches - same as in vintage nitro painted Fenders. I'm looking for a straight sale only / no trades. My feedback post below: Edited October 25, 2022 by Arnoldoc 17 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Munurmunuh Posted September 22, 2022 Share Posted September 22, 2022 This 80 second video — which I've been thoroughly obsessed with for months — is making me want to spend 3 grand Fortunately, vintage radius is a no go for me, I'm safe 🥵 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's supply and demand, basic economics, determining current prices. How much will it cost you to have one in 3 years is irrelevant if you want one today. It's not too different from buying a vintage Fender (how do you determine "value") and I presume it's going to be the same for Stenback basses - most people will be unable to get accepted on the current 4-5 year waiting list. Think it's a very fair price compared to the ones on offer in the US. Less than what it would take to ship and import one into Europe in 3 years time. I did have a Jazz 5 from them which was very nice, although I do think their P basses are their top product.

edpirie Posted September 25, 2022 Share Posted September 25, 2022 As a fellow Moollon P owner I have to agree. I wouldn’t swap it for any ‘70s P which is the same ballpark £ for vintage. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And how do you accept payment? I've now checked and it's around $200 for 3-4 day shipping with insurance on top. Payment via bank transfer or Paypal Friends & Family. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
