MTD Kingston Artist 5 *PENDING* £275 Glasgow

[BassApprentice]

Doing that thing you do where you get bored of looking at a bass you're not really playing so the only option is to sell it 😂

 

An MTD Kingston Artist 5, think it's the mort basic Kingston they did, but has all the design features of the rest of the range. Fantastic asymmetric neck, really shallow and wide if that's your bag. Single big humbucker does a good job and the Zoot preamp (added by previous owner @GBH) gives a bit more range than stock I iamgine. Also has the Buzz Feiten tuning system which is cool to have. The pickguard is actually white, just has black vinyl tape on it, but it's been there for years and hasn't shifted.

 

Bass is generally good condition with a couple of scrapes, nothing major though!

 

Specs as best as I can relay below:

Scale: 35"

String Spacing: 19mm

Electronics: Zoot 2 band (Vol Bass Treble)

Weight:4kg

 

 

Not got a box (yet) but working on it so happy to post. Any questions, fire away!

Gah, lovely these.

 

I've been looking for a blue one for years…

Looks like the pickup is in the right spot. I assume it does that growly Stingray sound and these necks are superb! I tried a Kingston Z5 and it had one of the tightest low B.
