Sire D5 with Curtis Novak Gold Foil pickup now £500 £550 Kendal UK

[GreeneKing]

Due to moving in a new direction bass wise I'm selling my much modified Sire D5.

 

It has a Curtis Novak Gold Foil pickup fitted. Not to be confused with Fender's own allegedly poor attempt at gold foil pickups.

To hear what a Curtis Novak pickup sound like on bass I refer you to LowEndLobster:

 

 

The bass is in excellent condition as per the photos. It has USA Hipshot Ultralite tuners fitted and a Bloodstone passive loom.

 

The original tuners and pickup will be supplied with the bass. Presently fitted with Dunlop strap locks that I will replace with originals on sale unless the buyer prefers them. It has nickel knobs that look just right and a fresh set of DR Victor Wooten strings (light gauge).

 

The neck has a mark near the nut. A scratch that has been covered by a Tru Oil and Gunstock Wax neck finish but is still visible under the finish. Hopefully the photos show it.

 

This is a seriously impressive bass with £100's of tasteful modifications. It includes a custom Tiny Tone Tort pick guard.

 

Any questions ask away. Bass can be tried locally. I don't have a spare case or gig bag so would prefer local collection or meet half way.

 

Open to offers of course.

 

Peter
