Vigier Excess 4 - *WITHDRAWN* £2000 Bingley

[sifi2112]

Withdrawn - Vigier Excess 4 Custom matte black finish in excellent condition with hiscox Vigier hard case, think I only gigged this beautiful bass just the once. Got one tiny indentation on back lower horn & scuff scratch forearm cutaway (see pics) & few other minor scratches.
Some paint chipped off by both strap pins when I re-drilled them to fit Schaller strap locks. I re-sprayed the areas but you can still see it if you look closely.

Mxed chrome / black Schaller hardware. New nut fitted (easy fit) as older nut had string slots slightly widened to accommodate thicker strings (B-D tuning) will include along with a spare (new) zero fret should original wear out. Thought I’d get this as Vigier are closing shop next year .. be sad to see this go as it’s probably the best bass I’ve ever owned (from new) but band collapse & probably end of my gigging days means this bass will just sit idle.

 

I’d like you to come test to make sure  .. weigh = 4.12kg

A very desirable bass but sadly beyond my finanical reach. Not to derail but are those all your photos? The first half-dozen look really pro.

Correct .. I had it up fs on commission at Bass Direct a couple of years ago but decided to keep it, alas I think my gigging days are now over

[wright/watt]

Bargain for this, as new Vigier Excess!

Someone will be well happy with this..

Sorry to hear about you likely giving up gigging Simon! Sending you best wishes from down the road! Rick

[sifi2112]

Cheers Rick .. time to face the music lol .. you never know tho but stuff I wanna play is not what most people want. I’ll stick to a bit of home recording for now. Probably gonna list my fab Warmoth jazz too  .. too nice just to hang on my wall !

[tobiewharton]

Want!

Still might consider trades for 4 string jazz bass with maple neck black block inlay & binding … with cash my way

[sifi2112]

Still looking for a jazz bass .. ideally 70’s pickup spacing & definitely maple neck with black binding & block inlays

Jazz bass trade no longer an option but might consider some boutique pedals &/or (pre) amp &/or combo with cash my way
