Up for sale is my  ACG Dao which I've owned from new. 

 

Black Limba body

Quilt Maple Top

34" Scale

5 piece Maple/Wenge neck

Acrylic Impregnated Maple finger board

16" Radius

Asymmetric neck carve

42mm at the nut

22 Fret

Between 4Kg and 4.1 Kg (Bathroom scales)

Pickups - ACG PB Neck, ACG BZ1 Bridge

Preamp - ACG Passive plus (Battery compartment present if you wanted to add)

 

Pick up wise think of it as a P/MM, controls are Volume - Tone - 4 way Rotary - 3 way Toggle. The ACG BZ1 contains ceramic and alnico single coils, with the rotary knob giving options of Ceramic, both parallel, both series or Alnico. The toggle switch then gives PB, Both or BZ1. So it's a really flexible package but most importantly it sounds great with an amazing clarity to the tones.

 

Ergonomics work really well, I find it comfortable to play seated or standing. The combination of bridge position (set far back P bass style) with a generous top horn gives it a really compact/easy access feeling.

 

It's in excellent condition, on close inspection I have spotted one 4mm lacquer crack at the neck pocket, pic attached. My reason for sale is I have an ACG 5 string with the same PUP config and I'm forcing myself to choose between them. Collection or meet for handover within reasonable distance. I have a hiscox and packaging if shipping is required (at buyers cost).

Without sounding like an @rse - that’s only the second ACG I’ve looked at and thought “Ooft…that’s nice”

 

GLWTS - lovely looking thing.

Heartbreaking how underappreciated these beauties are 😱🤨🙄😭

Alan's basses, in my humble opinion, of having played bass for forty years!! Are as good as it gets in custom hand built basses..This is another example of an out an out bargain, at a give away price..Somebody will be very happy👍

That looks so good and has everything going for it that I scrolled up to the description hoping it would be 3.5kg (it looks like it should weigh that).  It is still light but sadly for my dodgy shoulder just over my limit!  

 

GLWTS though I imagine at £750 it'll be gone soon enough.

Why not just give it away? 🥺💜

 

Anyone who plays this bass will instantly understand how vastly underpriced it is 😱
