I've had this a while, and had forgotten about it. I used it sometime back, during a period when I wasn't playing much upright (plantar fasciitis - ouch). Anyhow, it worked well for me, I could hear the difference it made to the Tone of my bass. In excellent / mint condition, boxed, with instruction leaflet. These are rather pricey now... ranging from £269 - £315 plus import duty. This one has the UK mains connector too. # Edit: someone informed me they recently paid £340 to import one of these recently - So I'm not going to sell this for peanuts. P&P not included - I would prefer to send this insured - willing to negotiate this.

PRICE DROP: £3,000 for the bass and stand - and I'll take an offer on the K&K pickup & preamp, if sold with the bass. EDIT: I am now considering selling via a 3rd party. It is with heavy heart and a degree of reluctance that I'm listing this fab upright - but I've been dithering, and in that time I am no longer using this fine instrument. These days, I reach straight for my BSX Allegro upright instead - so this is sitting there unused, and in need of someone who'll appreciate it and play it. These are rather special instruments, as they are essentially a reduced size body, and more "luggage friendly" - easier to travel with, yet they still sound and feel like an acoustic upright (because they are). Even travelling in a medium sized hatchback is easier. These basses are now discontinued - so they're becoming increasingly scarce. It comes fitted with a Gage Realist pickup and adjustable bridge. It also comes with the well padded gigbag it was supplied with, plus Hard Case, for protection on flights & in backs of vans. The bass is in great condition, with just a few minor knocks & bumps here & there. Strung with D'Addario Zyex strings in great condition (not much use) these are fine for bowing BTW, and seem medium tension to me. No trades thanks. And I WILL NOT POST so please don't ask. Happy to let you try the bass here in Cardiff - cup of tea and a Welsh cake for prospective buyers. I think this is a fair price for one of these, especially as they're uncommon and now discontinued, and given that they have come up on here for £3.5k (sometimes without the bonus of the hard case).

That is a lightweight bass. I'd also heard these can vary quite a bit in weight. Looks great. GLWTS

I honestly don't know why this is still here. These are absolutely top notch, and now they're discontinued - so will be increasingly sought after.

I have a Fiesta Red Classic 50's P bass, and it's my favourite ever Precision. Absolute killer sound, and lovely to play. This sunburst model looks awesome too. GLWTS

Yes, I've always thought that. They're rated at 2.5w + 2 5w but are much louder than you would think. I tried a few other small battery amps- but nothing came near the volume, or sound quality of this neat little unit. I'm only selling, as I now have a Bose battery PA (rather more expensive than this).

Wish I was a bit closer.... just so I could try this one out. Scratch that - I mustn't buy another bass.... So why am I looking at the "Basses for sale" thread? lol

I had one of these a while back, and sold it on here. There are times when I think I should've kept it, as it was so small and lightweight, and easy to carry around. As others have said, they don't sound it though - they sound amazing! They also don't come up very often.

I didn't realise either, until I saw someone else selling one, who mentioned it. IMO, it leaves a bit of a gap in the market, especially as these have so many built in features, incl a drum machine too.

Just adding a possible trade option. I'm looking for a Fretless Jazz neck (preferably lined). Willing to add cash, if necessary.

Just adding some possible trade options - I'm looking for a Fender / Squier fit fretless Jazz neck (preferably lined). Or I may opt for the right fretless bass. Willing to add cash for the right deal.
