harryo Posted May 12, 2009 Share Posted May 12, 2009 I've got a lovely italia mondial sportster bass in baby blue thats been sitting around not doing much for the past year. Cost £500 new, great vintage sounding bass in excellent condition. No longer made by Italia so this is the only place you'll pick one up! Read the harmonycentral reviews to find out about the quality of this bass! Only one small ding to the back of the neck. Has piezo pickup on bridge (the bridge is an active pickup) and a nice big humbucker at the neck. There are jack sockets to each of these pickups, with the option to use them separately or together. Two tone controls and a volume for the humbucker, and a tone and volume control for the piezo. I fitted it with flat wounds for the best sound in my opinion, but you can get a great variety of tones out of it. I've owned it for 3 years and it has rarely left my bedroom. Played live a handful of times. £275ono. Would prefer local pickup (in Birmingham), but will post if necessary. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
