DROP: Ashbury U-Bass with Flatwound steel strings. With padded gigbag £125 Cardiff

[Marc S]

NOW £110 collected.

This U-bass is different to the more common models, as it has flatwound (steel?) Strings. They have a nice amount of tension in them, unlike the usual rubbery, floppy strings. Players used to "normal" bass guitar strings will feel more at home with the tension, feel and response of these strings.

 

The neck also features a truss rod (not all U-basses do) and it works well, because I have adjusted it.

 

In great condition, though there is a small hairline crack / scratch near the bottom edge on the front of the instrument. It doesn't affect anything though, and is solid / secure. I've had this from new, and I didn't notice it when I bought it.

 

Ideal for noodling on the sofa, camping trips, or even as an emergency backup bass. Features a powered preamp, which uses a 9v PP3 battery. Comes with a nice, well padded gigbag.

 

No trades. I'd prefer collection / meet-up. Based in North Cardiff. I don't have a suitable box for it.
