Paul S Posted December 10, 2022 Share Posted December 10, 2022 (edited) Retrovibe P-30. Bought October 2021 and barely used. This is a short scale 50's style tele-necked, bound slab-bodied P bass with a reduced size body. One of a limited run of 8, but a special for me at the time as I didn't want the scratch plate - no holes! retrovibes own single coil pickup, which is fabulous. Wilkinson hardware. Recessed output jack socket. I'd say this is 9.5/10 condition only because if I said it was 10/10 someone with an electron microscope might find a small surface blemish. Strung with TI Flats. 7.5lbs/3.4kg 38mm at the nut 19mm spacing at the bridge Priced to sell at £300 collection only from Benfleet in Essex or maybe meet half way.

Paul S Posted December 10, 2022 Author Share Posted December 10, 2022 Someone's coming to have a look tomorrow, so kind of on hold until then Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
itsmedunc Posted December 10, 2022 Share Posted December 10, 2022 Really like the look of that. Lashed myself earlier for looking at it 😂 I’m on a mission to complete my rig and so, must resist basses 😞 I’m really glad that somebody is going to see it tomorrow. Will save me getting the cat of nine tails out again! 😂 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paul S Posted December 11, 2022 Author Share Posted December 11, 2022 (edited) Still available. Just to say - it is small, strat-sized! Here is a pic next to it's big brother, my latest addition Edited December 11, 2022 by Paul S 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HK. Posted December 12, 2022 Share Posted December 12, 2022 Oh wow! Gorgeous! Looking at the size, it's a 3/4? Did they make them for the younglings, or are they marketed more as a traveler/compact/shorty? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul S Posted December 12, 2022 Author Share Posted December 12, 2022 30" scale. Not sure that, at 65, I qualify as a youngling. It is just short scale, some folks prefer them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tazza1 Posted December 12, 2022 Share Posted December 12, 2022 I have the exact same bass (also without scratch plate holes) - they are really punchy, mine is now my main gigging bass. Good luck with your sale! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cosmo Valdemar Posted December 12, 2022 Share Posted December 12, 2022 Wish it was long scale! That new one looks wonderful though. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
