Hello all.

 

This is wonderful - feels and looks fantastic. I picked it up from Steff last year, great bass but simply not using it. Most of my gigs these days are either DB or P bass with flats, I've used this on a few function style gigs and it truly kicks like a mule

 

Specs:


Top - Claro Walnut 

Body - Ash with Bubinga tone block

Neck - Flamed Maple and Purpleheart

Fretboard - Curly Bubinga 

Pickups - Kent Armstrong 

Preamp - Noll 3 band with semi-parametric mid sweep. 
24 Fret 

34” Scale 

18mm string spacing 

Weight is around 4.1-4.2kg 

Dadarrio nickel XLs

 

Condition is excellent - a few very minor dings as you might expect

Hope you don't mind Steff but I've included a few of your photos as they are much better than mine! Also, no pen and paper to hand this morning so I have enlisted the help of a lego robot to evidence ownership.

 

I will most likely take the bass down to the gallery fairly soon, back to it's spiritual home. Posting here to see if there is any interest before I do so.

 

Open to trades - yes, and happy to consider anything of comparable quality. The price is the price though.

 

Shipping is an option in which case I'll include a Sadowsky gig bag.

 

Cheers,

 

Abd

In answer to the questions:

 

1 Kind of. I think the pickups are now wired in parallel but were originally series, so this gives a slightly different flavour. Also both pickups are slightly further back than a regular jazz spacing (perhaps the rear is closer to 70s) so not quite the jazz sound but close overall.

2 I don't know, but I think it might be New Jazz Hybrid. I've got a feeling I tried a white one of these in the gallery and Martin may have mentioned it then.... Or I could just be imagining that.... It would make sense as most of the bass is a kind of evolution of a regular jazz

 

Hope that's helpful
