Thank you, but i think i wanted to know how it sounds;)

Is it more like alder, or swamp ash, etc.

But i already have an answer from the owner.

Hi. 
first thanks to @Elgueddfor thr post.

I found it to be similar to ash soundwise. 
typical 70s sound, rich, powerful, cuts through.

yet it has the positive side not to break your neck since being very light.

you can listen to the sounclips on my soundcloud channel posted above 😀👍🏻

Price: 4200 eur
Empress body
Maple neck/fretboard
3.5kg
2021 year of construction

No trades, price is firm.

Shipping (only within EU union) on buyer’s cost.

A quick test between 3 great jazz basses, for your hearing pleasure. Which one do you like the most ? Thanks for listening!

1. Xotic XJ-1T : alder body, rosewood fingerboard, maple neck
2. Fender Marcus Miller 5 string: ash body, maple fingerboard, maple neck
3. Alleva Coppolo LM5 deluxe: empress body, maple fingerboard, maple neck

Hello,

After give it a try for quite some time I've decided to put on sale my fantastic Fbass (Furlanetto) VF PJ 5 sting.

There's absolutely nothing wrong with the bass, it's a fantastic instrument yet as much as I love it I'm always leaning towards a J J pickup configuration. The bass has some marks on the body otherwise it's perfect. Massive sound.

Specs are:

- made in 2017
- East Indian Rosewood fingerboard,
- Ash & Alder body,
- Koa pickguard with reinforcement plate,
- Fbass Preamp,
- Aguilar P/J-HC pickups,
- around 4,3 kg
- original Fbass bag

Tradewise: I'm looking EXCLUSIVELY for an Alleva Coppolo 5 sting jazz bass + cash from my side. I might be tepted with other 5 string boutique jazz basses (i.e. Mike Lull or such...). Feel free to write me a message, the worst it could happen is that I say "no, thanks".

Thanks for looking

A quick test

Fbass. It sounds alive.

Yes.

i was a sadowsky player for 15+ years and I’ll always say that are amazing basses yet I do tend go hear that their preamp has a very agressive imprint on the sound (which can be liked or not)… afrer all this years, and afrer trying the Fbass one I would also say that it sounds more “organic” or alive..

Both are good basses but for me Fbass wins hands down soundwise, confort, feel..

Does it get warm? I suspect as you say I have been unlucky. I did like the sound when it was working.

It gets but nothing more or less then the others I did own in the same "range" (aguilar tonehammer 500, markbass, gk mb500, ...)

Hello,

mine 800 works flowlessly. I guess you had bad luck  

As promised some short audio samples of the bass
