  1. Hello everyone, I am selling my Roscoe Century Standard Plus 5 strings that I traded with Big Jim.
    This is an awesome instrument, very versatile and precise. I am selling it because I am now searching for a more vintage passive sound.

    Here are its characteristics :
    - Century Standard Plus - five strings
    - One piece lightweight swamp ash body
    - Koa top with oil finish - £300 option
    - Three piece Select Maple Neck
    - Exclusive graphite and steel reinforced precision adjustable neck
    - Bird's eye maple fingerboard - £175 option
    - 35" Scale - 24 fret - 16" fingerboard radius, 18.3mm string spacing at the bride
    - Hand carved Graphtec Nut
    - Bartolini J Pickups - £150 option
    - Bartolini 3-band pre amp with push/pull mid freq shift
    - Satin Chrome finish Hipshot B style bridge with 18.3mm string spacing and Ultralight tuners
    - Roscoe DeluxeGig Bag
    - Weight - 8lb 5oz/3.75kg

    The bass is in excellent condition.
    I live in the south of France (Toulouse) but of course the bass can be sent elsewhere.

    Price : was 2000€ now 1800€ (not including shipping fees)

    Trades : only for 4 strings fretless or vintage Fender.

  2. Hello,

    I am selling my Alembic Orion 5 fretless (which I traded with basschat' pbat). Owning and playing an Alembic had always been something I dreamed of. But eventually, now that I had this chance, I realized that the "Alembic feeling" wasn't for me. I tried to get used to this instrument, but like a relationship, when you don't have the crush, it's better to let it go... and find a new love ! It's not about the instrument in itself, which is flawless (lutherie or electronics are top notch).

    So here are the characteristics :[list]
    [*]Alembic Orion model, built in 2000
    [*][color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif]Balance point body[/font][/color]
    [*][color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif]Zebrawood top, mahogany body, with purpleheart veneer setting the top off from the body.[/font][/color]
    [*][color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif]5 piece Maple set neck with walnut veneer[/font][/color]
    [*][color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif]Ebony fingerboard with side dot position markers[/font][/color]
    [*][color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif]34" scale[/font][/color]
    [*][color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif]Europa electronics (2xmini dip sw Hi/Lo-Filter, 1xmini dip sw filter Q, 3xpot LP roll off freq / volume / PU blend) with side mount jack.[/font][/color]
    [*][color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif]Original hard shell case[/font][/color]
    [/list]

    In the end we have a custom instrument which doesn't look like a regular Orion, but like a perfectly unique Alembic.

    Price : 2400€ + shipping fees (I live in France)

    Trade : preferably 4 strings, fretted or fretless. A vintage Jazz Bass for instance...

  3. [color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif]I have just traded a bass with Pedro (pbat). Everything went silky smooth : from the email exchanges to the shipment of the bass which was very well packed and protected. He is a very nice guy and I highly recommend him ! [/font][/color]
