From Nevers ?

Didn't you buy it from a guy named Ivan C. in Uccle (Ukkel) ?

Thanks for the advice, but as a 6 strings bass player and mostly fretless, it's missing a string. That said a trade for a JP BASSES 6 (fretless) would be the perfect solution, or one of yours, Alan, of course.

Hi Alan, Thanks for your kind reply, but there was no offence at all in what I wrote, I just wanted to get the time line right. Thanks for your words as they do it better then mine. That said, I've owned one of your bass and really liked it especially the EQ01 (when properly understood). And I still love your 0157Ü, which is a true masterpiece : http://archive.acguitars.co.uk/portfolio/0157u-uber-art-recurve-4/ Keep on making great instruments in your beautiful landscapes place. 👍

But they were crafted before ACG went into business, in fact Alan CRINGEAN started in 2006 just after Jean-Philippe FERREIRA stopped in 2005. Strange coincidence, no... 😉

Et le ramage se rapporte au plumage, c'est donc bien le phénix des hôtes de ces bois.

Nice Warrior DM5 on the right. Consider this a free bump on me.

Thinning down the herd, so selling the basses I don't use, especially non 6 strings basses. FOR SALE OR (PARTIAL) TRADE BASED ON THE NEW RETAIL PRICE ($9000 USD) : Superb looking, playing and sounding 33" JP BASSES Plume Redwood 5 with high grade woods. A bass in the league of Fodera and the likes. A real high end rare and collectable bass as Jean-Philippe FERREIRA (owner of JP BASSES) sold the rights to Pete SKJOLD who named these the Denoncourt series (see link below). The specifications : Body : chambered 2 pieces high grade highly flamed maple Top and back : 2 pieces exhibition grade holographic curly redwood with 2 veneers of ebony Neck : 3 pieces bolt-on high grade padauk and ebony center with 2 veneers of maple with patented high grade Macassar ebony tone transmission heel plate and matched top heel exhibition grade holographic curly redwood Fretboard : thick flat radius high grade Macassar ebony with side dots only Headstock : angled with matched exhibition grade holographic curly redwood and JP inlay Tuners : 2 + 3 Gotoh Res-O-Lite 350 Frets : 25 in stainless steel (24 + zero fret) Truss rod : 1 fully working Bridge : ETS Transmission Bridge Pickups : 2 JP BASSES/Kent Armstrong fitted in epoxy adjustable ramp Preamp : Audere 3ZB1 2 bands with volume, Dingwall rotary switch for the pickups selection (bridge, series, parallel, neck), bass, treble with the 3 ways Z switch plus internal gain and capacitance trimmers (left row only working because of the Dingwall rotary switch) without forgetting the LED battery status. This preamp can be converted into a 4 bands by simply soldering 2 more 100 K Ohms pots. So as it is right now, you have 12 totally different sounds from deep bass to crystal clear tone !!! Strings spacing at bridge : 18,5 mm (adjustable) Strings spacing at the zero fret (high grade Macassar ebony nut) : 9,5 mm Action at 12th fret : from 1,5 mm under the G to 2 mm under the B Scale : 33 inches Finish : oiled Hardware : black (comes with new Harley Benton Strap Security Locks) Weight : 4,6 kilos (perfectly balanced) Case : non original unbranded hard case Year : 2005 (one of the last ever made by JP BASSES) Strings : D'Addario Nickel EXL 170-5 (45-130) Todays price for a similar bass with all the options by SKJOLD (download the price list and you'll be amazed) : at least $9000 USD or around £7000 GBP ! The bass has been fully set up and everything checked. Non smoking environment, as usual. Asking price is £2250 GBP (around one third of a newly made by SKJOLD and half the price in 2005 when it was made by JP BASSES), which is a steal for such a rare bass, but I want it to find a good home as I only play 6 strings basses and mainly fretless.

I've pictured everything as usual, but if you want more pictures, just ask.

Mine is not blind nor deaf and she helps me packing and unpacking all the basses or amps I sell, buy or trade. Lucky me. 😊

You'll see it only hurts the first time. 🤣

Yes, it does matter as I really can't stand fans noise whoever they are. 😂

Does it have a f*cking fan ?

You know some people here can pay in Euros. Now, I'll stop derailing this thread.

I clearly understand your point of view. Why don't you put the Tune BEB 6 36" for sale here on BassChat ? I'm sure it would sell quite quickly.
