Lots of praise, a bit of interest, but still-for-sale-type-bump...

[size=4]£1,000 + p+p - No trades[/size] [size=4]I have to free up some dosh for a new project - so my Finn is very reluctantly up for sale. Very good condition.[/size] [size=4]I bought it from bobpalt, who had the bass built as a custom order. [/size] [size=4]Since then it has been over to John East who fitted a U-Retro (from John: "a variation on a U-Retro 4 Knob Deluxe in order to take care of the piezo. A piezo circuit would be required, which includes a piezo/mag mixer circuit.") The U-Retro was £217.50 and the Piezo/Mab Circuit and mods an further £37.50.[/size] [size=4]This has certainly brought a fantastic dimension to the bass, but, being a simpleton, still way too much technology for this bass-numpty, who loves a simple life (well a J and P-bass with East pre-amps)... it's just a lovely piece of furniture these days :-([/size] [size=4]From Bob's sale thread: "It's an unbelievably good bass, one of Alan's best I think (and it was much praised at a Moffat bass bash a while back), having the benefit of a powerful RFB pickup and a Hipshot piezo bridge, so you can get a phenomenal range of tones and blended sounds. In addition, there are [b]SIMs amber leds[/b] fitted to the neck, which were then wired up by Alan ([u]not[/u] after market additions). The body is light Swamp Ash, with a 4mm Wenge accent, and an Okoume top, and the neck (which is asymmetrical) is 3 laminates of flamed maple, with a fabulous acrylic impregnated flamed lava Bubinga fingerboard. Strap locks, gloss finish and all black hardware complete the picture."[/size] [size=4]An awesome bass... which comes with a Hiscox hard case.

...and a bumpety-bump

Harump-a-bump...

4 stings, jazz type thingies... but need to free up some dosh.

*kabump*

Pre-Xmas "happy ho-hos" stylie bump type thang...

SOLD.

Weekend deal time :-)

Let's go round again... One more time...

...tell them that one of the good bits is that it has a stereo line out into the desk...

SOLD.

Thanks for the endorsement - but, sadly, no takers as yet...

Needs must, so... any takers/offers (sensible considered). Go on you know you deserve an early Chrissie pressie...

Bump for a December price drop... no interest? (may consider 4 strings of interest...)

Thanks for the advice, but, sadly, it has to go...

Indeed it is… served me well, but times change.

[font=Verdana][size=3]Price drop: [s]£1,550[/s]... > £1,400.00! One week only![/size][/font] [font=Verdana][size=3]Up for grabs is my Lakland 4-94. Tobacco sunburst with a beautiful bird's eye maple neck. Serial Number 298 which dates it to 1998 - way before Dan Lakin sold to Hanson. The bass has been updated to the Hanson LH3 pick-ups and pre-amp. I still have the Barts and Bartolini preamp which will go with the bass.[/size][/font] [font=Verdana][size=3]The neck is one of the best I have ever played and, with a regular degrease with an orange oil concentrate, is smooth as a smooth thing (as recommended by Dan Lakin hisself, for it was he). I'll throw in a new set of Lalkand Formula-G 45-105 Stainless Roundwounds on and courier her for around an extra £20-25 Insured (at cost).[/size][/font] [font=Verdana][size=3]Any questions, ask away...[/size][/font]
