JensWest Posted October 27, 2009 Posted October 27, 2009 (edited) Hi! Selling my Sabre due to another purchase. Realized that there was a reason for selling my SR5. It's not my sound, I miss a couple of strings and I look ridiculous with one way up under my chin. Made in -87. Great cond. Sounds and plays great. Low action is no problem as you can see at the pics. Weighs under 4 kilos. VERY versatile instrument. Can sound like a p-bass (neck pickup) and a stingray (bridge pu) and a couple of other great sounds too. 2-band eq. Comes with a hardcase so posting it is not a problem. Here's how it works: And a couple of pics: Forgot to take a pic of the backside but no buckle rash and there's a "skunk stripe" on the neck. More pics can be fixed if asked for. Would like about 1200€ for it obo. Greetings/ Jens Westerinen Edited January 16, 2010 by JensWest

JensWest Posted December 3, 2009 Author Posted December 3, 2009 Thanks for all nice comments guys! It's indeed a great bass.
