Davi Posted October 10, 2024 Posted October 10, 2024 (edited) Made in the legendary Matsumoku factory of Japan in 1984 this amazing bass features a stunning thru neck in maple with walnut stripes, rosewood fingerboard with snowflake inlays, Canadian ash body, brass nut and fully adjustable brass bridge, a plethora of tone options thanks to active/passive, dual sound, in phase/ out phase, series/parallel switches, 3 way pickup selector, and active and passive tone knobs. In excellent condition, especially for a 40 year old vintage bass, very minor wear to body, the neck is in beautiful condition and the electrics all work. One of the best examples ive come across in recent years. Comes with the original fitted Westone hardcase. No offers please its worth every penny. Can post for an additional £20 Edited October 27, 2024 by Davi 16
MJJS Posted October 10, 2024 Posted October 10, 2024 I had a trans black one of these from the 80s until quite recently. A very nice bass indeed. £675 is a bargain imho. 1
Bass Of Spades Posted October 11, 2024 Posted October 11, 2024 The build quality on these early Matsumoku basses is generally top notch - and for this price, in this condition, feels like it would be a great purchase. Good luck with the sale 1
Bass Of Spades Posted October 11, 2024 Posted October 11, 2024 Think I bought one from Stu at Curly music in around 86… beautiful things 1

Davi Posted October 24, 2024 Author Posted October 24, 2024 Not excessively heavy about the weight of an average jazz bass 1
