WHUFC BASS Posted September 2, 2023 Share Posted September 2, 2023 (edited) Came across this one today and really not sure what to make of it ... I'm guessing it's some kind of custom bass. The fingerboard is intriguing, not sure what wood that is. The hardware looks like decent 80s Schaller hardware and the pickups appear to be Kent Armstrong single coils. The neck is bowed so this would be a real gamble as to whether it'd ever function properly though. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/126064635622?hash=item1d5a09aee6:g:1MIAAOSwWmdk52VA&amdata=enc%3AAQAIAAAAwDvpu0mfxv%2BaHtmMQu%2BRhoMKDaj%2FKUqMX04JNZEywFj%2BoNTbCZQsC7mO%2FWBo%2BYSq0gNPTD397lmONoy5gXF5PtrI%2BxPuj9TMkGzxNX4m1iXcQDAgsw%2Bk263OstpjxBR%2BU9PXr9hMbWOqlpB4%2BYUcOw%2Fm1ngeERgl2t5l3Azn3xk6LjkmLmID%2FS771E5pWOC6n6h5oUiYVoyLVkisDkLPZ%2FBXZISgLcF86y30J0Qo0PmCc%2BXd8AQ89pZ%2BvF%2FtRuctew%3D%3D|tkp%3ABk9SR8jhwM7KYg Edited September 2, 2023 by WHUFC BASS Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jean-Luc Pickguard Posted September 2, 2023 Share Posted September 2, 2023 The headstock shape reminds me of the Sei basses Martin Peterson makes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tauzero Posted September 2, 2023 Share Posted September 2, 2023 Is the truss rod thinking of coming out of the back of the neck? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lemmywinks Posted September 3, 2023 Share Posted September 3, 2023 Saw that one, assumed it was a home build due to the janky headstock design. Some nice parts on it like. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not to mention the seller says the neck is bowed and "they aren't sure if the truss rod works"... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
