Flanker Posted March 27, 2010 Posted March 27, 2010 (edited) For Sale my year old Alleva Coppolo Precision. If you are interested in quality basses and need a Precision 5 string this is it. Weight around 9lbs. Some Piccies! TRADED Milton Keynes area. Bass has a gig bag so would prefer to meet up but with high price items I will consider shipping options as required. Thanks.

lozbass Posted March 27, 2010 Posted March 27, 2010 Wow! Beautiful and a very good price indeed - these are fabulous instruments
birdy Posted March 28, 2010 Posted March 28, 2010 I have played this and its an absolutely beautiful sounding, looking and playing bass. Steve
molan Posted March 29, 2010 Posted March 29, 2010 Another big recommendation on AC basses from me. Seriously well put together & everything about them just 'works' somehow
JTUK Posted April 4, 2010 Posted April 4, 2010 Looks great, shame it is a P-bass as that will save my credit rating
Flanker Posted April 7, 2010 Author Posted April 7, 2010 It's 34" scale. Doesn't give the nut width on the website but measuring looks like 2" (50mm) I don't have big hands but have no problems with it.
Flanker Posted April 8, 2010 Author Posted April 8, 2010 The weight is exactly 9lbs on my digital bathroom scales and that feels about right too. It's a nice weight.
loudandclear Posted April 11, 2010 Posted April 11, 2010 Amazed this is still here and although its a big cliche - if it were a four I would take it - brilliant bass
Legion Posted April 11, 2010 Posted April 11, 2010 Gorgeous bass - I remember seeing it on the wall at BassMerchant for a little while before it sold. Was always tempted to have a closer look at it but never did, then it was gone! Luckily for me, I can't play 4 strings - no idea what I would do with 5 Best of luck with the sale.
Flanker Posted April 13, 2010 Author Posted April 13, 2010 Thanks for the comments guys - I'm surprised that there hasn't been more interest too.
molan Posted April 13, 2010 Posted April 13, 2010 [quote name='Flanker' post='798354' date='Apr 7 2010, 09:15 AM']It's 34" scale.[/quote] In case anyone is concerned about the scale then you really shouldn't be - the B sounds fantastic on these & the 34" makes it an easier stretch for those that find 35" more of a problem.
NJE Posted April 14, 2010 Posted April 14, 2010 This is a real stunner, and like everyone else I am suprised it is still here. I would give anything for it but unfortunately all I have is a Overwater and about 70p Good luck.
Flanker Posted April 23, 2010 Author Posted April 23, 2010 Unmarked Alleva Coppolo for around £2k!!!!
lozbass Posted April 23, 2010 Posted April 23, 2010 An absolute steal - under normal circumstances, £2k wouldn't get anybody into the Alleva game. Current prices for AC are around $5k in the US (plus around 25% to get one into the UK) - and this one appears to be entirely as new. If I could play fives, this would be long gone.
fretmeister Posted May 3, 2010 Posted May 3, 2010 I can't believe no one has gone for this. I've played it, and it is lovely!
lozbass Posted May 7, 2010 Posted May 7, 2010 Failure of this bass to move rapidly has me flabbergasted - some of the best instruments on the planet IMO. A clear sign of very difficult times.
