  1. Jon put an ebony fretless board on a bass for me recently, outstanding craftsmanship and lovely guy to deal with. He had some tasty basses on show too... I'd certainly recommend exploring his creations!
  2. I have one like this in white, my main bass since '96. The sound drops jaws live and in studios. It's a steal at this price!! Somebody's going to be very happy...
  3. Hello Joe Thanks for your note, nice to hear from you. It's great that these unique vintage instruments have a personal history like this, I love it! Never tried a Pedulla, they look gorgeous but only ever seem to have lined fboards, right? Cheers Tom
  4. Hi folks Up for grabs is this lovely early 80s (I believe) creature which I've had for about the last five years and used for quite a few recordings - sample attached.[list] [*]Sound is sweet, singing and punchy, currently strung with Ken Smith half-rounds for great combination of smooth mwah and singing harmonics. [*]It's a set neck design so the heel is very rounded and smooth for easy access all the way up the neck. [*]Unlined fingerboard, I believe ebony, with side dots, length is up to equivalent of 21 frets. [*]The neck is very straight allowing a low action with no buzz. [*]Pickup has been replaced before my time with an EMG, but still has the pretty wooden pickup cover. The original pickup will be supplied with the bass in case you wish to change back. [*]Condition is excellent with the exception of a few small chips to the headstock and a small indentation to the fingerboard which does not affect the playability or sound (it was there when I bought it and has never been a problem). See pics for a closer look. [*]Genuine potential buyers are welcome to come and give it a try before committing. [/list] I love this bass and am only selling to fund a new fretless project, involving 5 strings and a 2-octave fingerboard!
  5. C'mon guys! I had an almost identical one for a decade as my main bass, tight punchy lows and gorgeous singing midrange. Snap up a bargain handmade boutique British bass :-)
