nenor Posted August 9, 2009 Share Posted August 9, 2009 (edited) Here is a wonderful and rare custom made 4 string Rbass. Lots of woods and top-end electronics: horse chesnut top + middle tone block, alder back, purpleheart/maple 5 piece neck, purpleheart fingerboard & pickup covers. Walnut between top & back. Schaller bridge, ultra light hipshot tuners. Nordstrand NJ4SE pickups. Audere 3ZB preamp 18V. Custom fitted clear pickguard. Weight is under 9 lbs. The bass is not new. It has a thumb wear near the bridge pickup and some light marks on the body. No dents, just honest mojo from being played. You can hardly notice anything in the pictures because of the wild texture of the wood and... because it's really nothing serious. Neck is in great shape back and front. Frets show almost no wear! Neck is the fastest I've ever played. Reminds me of an old jazz neck but with 24 frets. Action is very low with no buzz. Balance is perfect sitting or with a strap. Sound is warm and fat but can be tweaked anywhere with the Audere preamp. Great finger style sound! Will come with a soft case.
