What is the weight of this beauty?

We should do a poll. 🙂 You're right. In real the block looks more red than on the pics. Plus I found the original add from this bass (pre-previous owner) and there was written that it's alder...

Ok. You are second to say so. But it has this red-ish colour that I know from alder. But maybe you're right. I'm no expert on woods. Thank's anyway!

I found the old add. It's Fodera/Duncan Dual coils and it's definitely alder tone block.

Ok, I was told it was alder. I don't know who made the pick ups. But the bass was custom ordered with these.

I just can't sell this bass... (at least for the moment...) Specs: Flamed redwood top Walnut body Alder tone block Three piece ash neck Neck through Ebony fretboard 26 frets 33" scale Currently E-C tuning (19.0 mm spacing) Fodera/Mike Pope 18v preamp Fodera/Duncan Dual coils (wood cover /custom) Weight 4.7 kg Serial #MG52247N Including orig. Fodera case and tools The bass is located in Germany. Open to Trades. You can hear it here:

Sorry, I just saw the title...

Beautiful!

Wow, beautiful. Does it have an ash body?

I had the string only for one week on my bass. Max. playing time 3-4 hours. For my french bass they are (for my taste) a bit too mid-frequency emphasized. I think they would work great for dark basses to feature the mid frequencies and the high frequencies to get a nice pizz tone. They do supply a nice bassy tone. Imho not suited well for arco. I ordered them from Gollihur Music für 148,- USD plus customs/VAT and shipping https://gollihurmusic.com/7710t-white-nylon-tape-wound-upright-bass-strings/ I shot a short video (iphone) so you can get an impression. I'll send you the link upon request.

I had the chance to play that bass a while ago and I can assure that it is the absolute bomb.
