[quote name='jassibi' post='365534' date='Dec 29 2008, 03:36 PM']I bought a 5 string double bass last September but have found I don't have enough time to practice. I am thinking of selling and am just gauging if anyone would be interested in buying it. It's a German plywood bass made around 1980. It has a very good pizz tone - I think arco is OK but I don't use the bow much so wouldn't like to say. It's set up for pizz - reasonable action and a good tone with new Thomastik spirocores. I have put a K&K bass max pickup on it which works very well. It's a nice looking bass - a kind of mid brown colour and looks fairly aged. A few scuffs but all cosmetic. The B string works very well - strong and full with loads of sustain. When I bought it I was worried that the B string would be hard to master but it's not a problem at all and is great for funk tunes or the last note on a ballad. It has a bow - not high quality but adequate. Also a good padded case with lots of pockets and a carry strap. Contact me via this forum if interested. Sensible offers only. Could provide pics if interested. I am based in Worthing, West Sussex.[/quote] PM'd

Can you build a 5 string version?! I'd have one of them for sure! (altho lined with fret dots where they live on a fretted bass for me)

Hi, can you post any shots of the actual basses? I'm v interested in the fretless specifically Would you consider posting as Essex is too far from me to collect realistically Hope to hear from you and have a bump whilst I'm at it! TTFN Ieuan

A cracking looking bass - this may prompt some disgust elsewhere but how do you reckon it would be with it's frets pulled out? I'd get it done properly! Ieuan

Ooooh! You should have posted these shots first Rob, shows her off much better Very tempted again, need discipline tho!! HELP!

Seems pretty pricey to me, Shockwave is flogging a modded SR5 for £630 here

bump! would love to see some shots

Nightmare, sorry to hear you've had to sell a lush bass like this in such circumstances - have a bump on me
