[quote name='owen' post='843482' date='May 20 2010, 09:00 PM']19mm string spacing (4 string) and 18mm (5 string). 16.5mm is a custom option on either 4 or 5 strings[/quote]

And what is yours ?

Any custom options, color, etc ... ?

Sorry you didn't find a place in your heart for this one, Owen. Someone's going to get a bargain here. These are really special basses with a truly massive sound.

Ahhhhhh, it was worth a try. I really wanted to try one and desperately wanted to like it, but we were not destined to be together. I keep going back to my £180 MTD Kingston. It fits for now, so I figured "why fight it?"

[Bigwan]

Not interested in trades by any chance?

[BarnacleBob]

Is it a Mark I or Mark II?

I would so love this to go with my 4 stringer.

Superb basses - can't praise them enough. £1100 is a cracking price too.

You've got a deal

[Owen]

I am in Bangor, North Wales.

Mark I or II? I'm afraid that I have no idea. How would I tell?

No trades I'm afraid.

Need it you know you do.

Could be wrong but I think all of the 5 stringers are the mark 1.

...and I thought they were all Mark II! Not THAT much difference really!

The mark II is relatively recent and has more angular edges - OTPJ is the man who knows all.

To be fair to everyone, there are quite a few people sniffing around this. It will go the the first one to stump up the cash. I am not trying to put on a hard sell (hopefully my feedback will testify to this) but in this climate a sale is a sale. I hope everyone is cool with this.

[Owen]

Sold, thanks for all the interest. It was exciting.

[OutToPlayJazz]

Congrats, Owen! I didn't even need to put Davide's pics on, either!

In answer to the query, all the 5's are the mk II angular model with the extra controls.
