I've played this particular bass..... Measured at 32.5" scale, easy playing action, it recorded really well, the lights work. nice condition and lightweight on the shoulder.

Don't suppose it's the medium scale / 32" neck?

[quote name='scoobystig' timestamp='1412061009' post='2565172'] I had a piece of wood just like that Turned in to this, quite enjoyable to play, more so because I think because I constructed it [/quote] Nice bit of wood and looks like it sounds good!

[size=5]I found this in my stores of old wood and parts. It has obviously had some different hardware. I'll leave the neck screw/bolt 'collars' on in case damage occurs as they are tightly fitted.[/size] [size=5]The wood is 'rippled ash', costs about £80+ these days for the raw block of wood, it has a 'Tru oil' finish.[/size] [size=5]Weighs in at about 4.10 lbs and the neck slot is close on 66.35mm at its widest (17mm deepest). It could possibly take a five string neck though I think this was originally made for a wider four string neck.[/size] [size=5]Postage to be added if not collected.[/size]

NOW ON EBAY........ I've had this cabinet about 4 years and used it only 3-4 times to add to an existing PA in larger than normal venues for the band(s). Works well as it has an onboard crossover, simply plug in to the amp output or chain off another speaker and it gives out low end volume to add to the 'top' speaker cabs. [size=5]In very good condition with original packing box. Collect and test is always better but it works fine.

[quote name='mybass' timestamp='1382630729' post='2254720'] PRICE DROP TO £600 Only one gig under its belt and has since sat in its Warwick headless bass case for a few years. Excellent action on maccasar ebony fingerboard and 5 piece maple/wenge neck, lovely sound off the walnut and mahogany body. Seymour Duncan hum buckler pups. The tuning system uses normal strings, the ball end anchors at the top end of the neck and it stays in tune for ever. I kept thinking I could get into headless bass but its not to be so even though I designed and built it, I'm just not using it at all so it has to go or else I will be dismantling it. I design and build basses, have done for over 15 years both for myself and private orders than are generally more expensive than priced here for this bass. This bass plays really well, feels solid and has a great look to it. The top bout follows the contours of the fender bass outline and the two end strap buttons allow different playing positions. Can be posted but always nice to try before you buy. There is a sound clip lurking on my computer somewhere if anyone needs, email address please. [/quote] Bump
