Pentode Posted September 30, 2009 Posted September 30, 2009 (edited) As a result of, shall we say, a frank exchange of views with HM Inland Revenue (actually, it was pretty one sided), I have been advised in no uncertain terms that I need to liquefy some of my assets...... So, it is with a tear in my eye that I have to announce that my ACG Finn fretless is up for grabs. Purchased only a month ago from Bobpalt. I won't drivel on unnecessarily about this lovely bass so here's a link to Bobs original posting - [url="http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=58862&hl"]http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=58862&hl[/url] Also more photos here - [url="http://www.acguitars.co.uk/Gallery/161/"]http://www.acguitars.co.uk/Gallery/161/[/url] I'm asking, if I may, for £850 including mainland courier delivery. Ok Boys and Girls, over to you.. Cheers Grahame Edited October 9, 2009 by Pentode
bythesea Posted September 30, 2009 Posted September 30, 2009 If this had 5 strings I might have been able to make Owen a happy man...
7string Posted October 1, 2009 Posted October 1, 2009 I've played that bass and it's just wonderful. The magnetic and piezo work so well together and the neck is superb. Whoever buys this will be one happy bassist
Pentode Posted October 1, 2009 Author Posted October 1, 2009 (edited) Many thanks for your kind comments people! It amazes me that a bass so light can feel so solid and well built. Kudos to Alan! Edited October 1, 2009 by Pentode
tischbein Posted October 1, 2009 Posted October 1, 2009 Stunning... too bad I suck at playing fretless without lines to help me along !!

What a fantastic bass....have a bump.
GreeneKing Posted October 1, 2009 Posted October 1, 2009 This is one very sweet bass indeed. Quality wood doesn't need to be heavy and this one proves that point no end. Peter
MoonBassAlpha Posted October 1, 2009 Posted October 1, 2009 I've said it before, but BobP (0riginal owner) has exquisite taste in basses, and this is no exception. I'm pretty sure I had a brief dabble on this when I picked up my Sei from him. Nice. Good luck with the sale. Jules

Pop by anytime you want, to see the latest additions to the collection ( 2 x Roscoes, new ACG, Fender, Shuker, Sandberg etc). I dont want to sidetrack the thread though. This is an absolutely gorgeous bass, feather light and fabulous to play and admire. The only problem I had was that I am not a fretless player, otherwise no way would I have sold her. In fact, I closely modelled my new ACG (fretted!) on her. All the best to you both, Cheers, Bob
