Thanks @ead 😎 I've not got a fretless with MC pups, but I have a headless 6 string with the DFM 4K preamp. I do also have a fretted 5er with the MC pups and a DFM 5K however. I've got a decent range of Alan's designs too, albeit in 31.5" scale, so the OP could see what shape fits well too. I've reached out on the Facebook post, South Croydon isn't too far so hopefully we can figure out something. Eude

Very nice, care to share the specs, or will there be a new thread for all that stuff?

I'm selling one of my ACGs, it's an AC Guitars TKO Modern 4. It's a short scale, 30.5" and passive, so a bit more old school than a regular ACG, but with the super high end build quality and modern conveniences you'd expect. This bass is very much a one off, the only TKO Modern bass that Alan has ever made, as the shape was originally designed as a guitar, but it works very nicely for a short scale bass. It's very lightweight, I would guess not much more than 8 lbs, and is in absolutely mint condition, it's barely left the house and never been gigged. The proceeds from the sale will go straight into a new ACG. Specs as follows >> Body Figured Maple Top Wood with Washed Out Black Stain White Limba Body Neck Rosewood Fingerboard with 0º radius 3 Piece Ash Neck with Washed Out Black Stain Medium asymmetrical profile Alloy Side Dots Reverse Standard Series Headstock Details Bolt-on Construction 30.5″ Scale Length 4 String 40mm Nut Width Satin Lacquer Finish Electronics ACG PB Split Coil Pickup, reverse wound with Alnico magnets ACG Passive – Volume/Tone Hardware Hipshot Type B Bridge, 19mm spacing Gotoh GB7 Tuners Black Hardware Dunlop Dual Design Straplocks ACG/Newtone Strings Here some of Alan's photos on the ACG site >> https://acguitars.co.uk/project/0321tkomodern4/ The bass is currently strung up with TI Flats, but I'm happy to pop on some Newtone Nickel Roundwounds if the buyer would prefer. Looking for £999 o.n.o. + shipping in the UK I'm based in South London should anyone prefer to collect. Happy to discuss shipping outside of the UK, message me. Wee clip playing some slap on the TI Flats >> https://www.instagram.com/p/B4kKmFcH7_K/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link&igshid=MzRlODBiNWFlZA== Thank you for looking! Eude

Nice one, it's a gorgeous looking thing, really glad it's doing what you want too, always a gamble with a custom, delighted it's spot on.
-
What's the spec on the bass?
-
I think you chose the right name on balance... 😉
-
Congratulations, that is lovely! Why are you calling it a "Jazznik" rather than Sputnik by the way? Eude

I get custom wound Newtones, but I have tried regular strings too with good results, easier on the headlesses as you just lop the extra off, I have to wind the excess round the tuners on the headed basses, hence the custom strings. There's nothing custom about them bar the length.

That Salace was Si's and it's a 33" scale 😉 The low B on my 31.5" ACGs are brilliant, perfectly musical and comparable to any decent 34" bass in my opinion. Here's some noodles on the 31.5" headless ACG Salace 6er >> https://on.soundcloud.com/pzt83 There's some low B being used on a couple of them. The low B on another bass I'm lucky to own, my ACG Finn SC Classic 6 string, also 31.5" scale is absolutely phenomenal, in part thanks to a super rigid Wenge neck and a really solid and extended connection between the neck and body with it being a bolt on single cut. Design and wood selection plays a big role here, and I think with Alan making all his ACGs by hand it's possible for him to get so much more from a bass. Chere's, Eude

Well that turned out nice!

I just sold an MXR M282 Compressor to Jim. Brilliant communications, super quick payment and an all round great guy to deal with. Thank you buddy! Eude
-
Absolutely stunning work!

MXR M292 Dyna Comp Bass Compressor. In good condition, a couple of tiny scuffs. Velcro on the underside. No box or instructions, but everything you need these days is on the internet anyway More info here >> https://www.jimdunlop.com/mxr-dyna-comp-bass-compressor/ Really lovely demo here >> Quick note, this plays nicer with more vintage, passive sounds, an extremely hot active bass tends to push it's limits a bit, pardon the pun. Moving on as I've realised lately that the caveman in me much prefers my bass tone without any compression. £80 posted in the UK. Thank you for looking! Eude

I bought a GK Legacy 500, which I adore, but I tried and ELF a few weeks after I got it, and I honestly would've gone with the ELF had I tried it first. It really does sound that good, but I appreciate it's a pricey compared to the others.
-
There are other options too. There's a little Harley Benton >> https://harleybenton.com/product/block-300b/ Might be a smidge bigger, buy it's louder, in paper and has much more going on eq wise. And, the BAM-200, as noted above by @JohnDaBass >> https://www.tcelectronic.com/product.html?modelCode=P0DI5 As far as I've seen, the Gnome and the BAM are nearly identical internally.
-
This might be helpful? To my ear, in the above video at least, the Gnome sounds a little dull compared to the others? Very little character or colouring, but of course that could be a brilliant thing to others. I've only tried the ELF myself and heard in a band context too, and it really does sound good, very very good in fact. In a not overly loud ensemble, it would be fine I'm sure. Hope that helps! Eude
-
That certainly does not help!
-
Stunning! How long till it's in your grubby mitts?
