I haven't has this lovely bass long. I decided that I needed a 5 string to deal with the band's regular need to drop key. It was bought locally and this bass is like new as hopefully the photos show.

Weight measured with accurate digital fishing scales is 9.48lb and the bass balances well on a strap and seated.

Strung with a set of D'Addario nickel wound strings that are very fresh.

In a way it's better than new. The action was as good as you'd expect. As is my way I ran a fret rocker over the fretboard and found one fret, 20 of 21 slightly high. A light dress and polish to this one fret has resulted in a gloriously low clean action for those who like their bass set up this way.

Why am I selling? A GAS attack pure and simple. I saw the CLF G&L L2500 for sale on here and got led astray

The price is firm as it's exactly what I paid and a very good price for this excellent example of a highly rated 5 string bass.

Viewing and trying out welcomed in Kendal. I don't have a spare gig bag or case at the moment so collection preferred but otherwise I can probably sort packaging and courier at cost.
