I was the one who ordered the painting job.

Here is the guy's website : http://www.turquet.net/
He is not a luthier. He's really specialised only in lacquer finish on wood (exceptional furnitures and instruments).
Really a good job.

It's a custom color : light sonic blue
I thnik it's a PU. The goal was to match Musicman specs.

Originaly, the bass was red and then a crazy canadian made it... green (and a ugly one). Painting job was absolutely necessary.

Regarding the bass itself, it's REALLY a good one. Great sound IMHO.

Beautiful bass. A bargain at this price.

But it probably isn't a 1982 model as its Tokai indicates it is more likely a post 83-84 model.

Before 84


After 83-84 :

We French love Bravewood because He makes excellent guitars actually! ;-)

I could say the same to you !

OK. I've never had any serious fretless bass. You never know.

She will be loved. I've already another Jazz Bass Bravewood in my armory. Love it. This guy is a genius !

I'm the luckiest guy in the world tonight ! Thanks Eddie !

Cool, the bass weighs 10.8 lbs

Thx ! A bit too heavy for my broken back. But she's a beauty !

Still here ? Weird...
The bass is beautiful. The seller is very nice. This Stingray should have been sold long time ago.

Nice !
Do you have any idea of the weight ?

Will actually weigh this tomorrow but from memory it's a little under 10 lbs but never felt this heavy and I was surprised when it was weighed.

The bass has a good balance, that's why.
And under 10 lbs, it's still pretty light for an ash body !

10 lbs would be a bit too heavy for my back (a slipped disc in the neck).
But still...

Beautiful bass !
Any idea of the weight ?

Are you interested in a trade ? I've send you a PM.
