Might be possible. I did speak to a couple of respected UK luthiers and they were concerned re. the coin, the holly wood (difficult apparenly) and not knowing what epoxy/resin(s) might have been used to both fix and surround the coin.

Thanks Jon ... sorry, I thought I'd included that. It's reading 9.1lbs on our digi-scales. You're right about the weight Q. Maybe it should be included with the required info (location, price etc.) ... just tried it on the alternative hand-held luggage digi-scales = 8.88 lbs (could be right as it matches the price?!). So probably somewhere in the 8.8 - 9.1 range..................

ditto: rare colour & great condition

Thanks for the update / link BCH - some really interesting options. Aesthetically (+personally) I prefer the original (?) front grille(s); not ure if they remain an option?

Ashdown Spyder 330 Dual Tube Pre Amp Bass Head. Condition is Used / refurbished. Driven by 2 pre amp tubes, sounds really good, mid and bass shift switches to provide a variety of tones. Overall controls: L + H imputs; FX send-return; [ROTARY] Middle, Bass, Treble, Gain, Master; [SWITCHES] Mid, Bass, Bright, Mute, Pre/Post; Ashdown VU Meter. (Rear : DI + 2x speakers.This was in a bit of a state (aesthetically only), so have simply refurbished the chassis using hardwearing 'plastidip' (black, plastic paint) and fitted new corner protectors. Will be packaged very well/carefully for Courier (24/48h).

sorry. I had quite a few Q's re, weight but only just managed to borrow a digital luggage scale - reading 9.7lbs.

15 inch bass speaker. Excellent used condition. Make unknown. c. 14cm (5.5") overall depth. Large magnet construction of c.7.5" (19cm) diameter. 8ohms power unknown but would estimate 300 watts (used previously with 330w head w/out issues). Includes a FANE J.73 (made in Japan) Horn (c. 18.5 x 7.5 cm and c. 16cm deep). Plus 2x interconnected jack sockets and original wiring (split for removal but could be re-joined) Ideal for bass unit - this is where it was removed from previously. Local pick up preferred but I can get a Courier quote if required or meet-up relatively locally.

Ashdown AAA After-8 Bass Combo.Excellent condition (see photos), although I've had to add some black tape to one end of the rubber strap which was wearing against the fitting + the inner metal strip; probably a common issue - very little used (home only). Great little unit for practice+. Happy to arrange Courier if required.

Thanks Ruarl - instrument is with me, in the north-east of England - ramp is flat (but the f/board is only slighly radiused & string heights quite level over the ramp) - bridge & 'nut/headstock' will take both DBE and standard strings. If you look closely at the last photo you can see the channels and small hex-(clamp)-bolts above the current dbe strings.

ACG (UK) Salace Headless 5: Custom (Specification Level). Top/Back Wood: Holly top with Bloodwood accent; Body Wood: Black Walnut; Body Finish: Satin Lacquer; Neck Wood: 5 piece Wenge/Bloodwood; Finger Board: AI Birdseye Maple; Scale: 34″; Neck Finish: Satin Lacquer; Pickups: ACG RFB ACG PB in Bloodwood ramp; Hardware: ETS Bridge/Tuning unit, ACG Headpiece Dunlop Straplocks; Pre-amp: ACG EQ03 5K filter pre. Exceptional instrument in really excellent condition (see photos). c/w Blake-Apex semi-solid case (designed for guitar/s but works well for this headless bass with an overall length of c. 100cm or 39"). Narrow(er) string spacing of 16.5, although the saddles are adjustable. @ nut/zero-fret: c 9mm). Initial photos show bass as-is, with a small dark cover (25mm) over the gold-sovereign designated by the original owner (this is recessed/flush with body top). Also a photo(s) with coin w/out cover. The coin itself has a value of £340-550 (conditional) but is pretty much impossible to remove w/out damage to bass, coin or both. Exceptional bass acquired via BC trade but I can't adjust to the narrow string spacing & frustrated in being unable to unmodify the personalised modification. https://www.acguitars.co.uk/project/093salaceheadless5/ £1234
