My Hohner B2A 5-string, also known as the Cricket Bat by some. These basses defy science, particularly if you're primarily a reggae player like me as these basses provide thunderous dub tones. That said, crank up the treble and you have a perfect 80s slap monster with all the tone spectrums in between, I even did a Motown gig with this - they truly are rather versatile basses. It's not getting much use due to using ultralight basses so this could do with finding a new home. It has been modified with a homemade hook, kindly donated by a fellow bass chat member, which helps the bass sit better for me - much like the newer Steinberger Synapses had. It is easily removable, though, if it’s not to your liking.
Overall this is a very well-built solid bass, lightweight at just 7.54lbs, with great action; the preamp works well and it has a passive option, EMG select pickups are great too. Comes with a functional but tatty Steinberger bag.
 

A bargain £375 collected from Plymouth or can be posted at the buyer’s cost.
