A great summary. I’ve heard rumours but I’ve never seen a five string series II bass in over twenty years of being a Vigier fan. I don’t think they made them.

I'm afraid it's easier to find a grain of gold at a sandy beach. If at all possible! And that's a shame, because this bass as a 5-string would leave my other basses unemployed.

Beep beep! Ped the Vigier expert here! 

Next to the strap pin in the bottom of the bass.

What is the serial (and the build time)?

Does the semi-parametric go upwards or downwards, when turning the frequency pot clockwise?

I have not found the serial yet. Any idea where they put it?
Clockwise raises the frequency.

Thank you! This is really with mixed feelings. This bass sounds perfect for me. But I do need that fifth string in most of my bands. If I sell this I will haunt down a five string Passion. But hope to trade. And yes, I do realise that the other series don't have a graphite neck and will not sound the same.

I might be certifiable insane, considering to let this go. But I've been playing 5-strings since the dawn of times, and this is missing one string. 😂  I just can't get my head around it!

This is the highly coveted second series with a graphite neck through. And what a neck it is! Every note rings out perfectly, and no dead spots. The electronics are volume, pickup selector switch, passive tone and an active sweep that works in conjunction with a 3-way switch that gives you 15db boost, neutral and 15db cut. Everything works as it should.

The range of sounds in this bass is mindblowing! Soundwise, this is the perfect bass. I have Alembic, Pedulla, several Marleaux, F Bass....but this is quite something special! So if you have a 5-string Passion , drop me a line! 

Condition....the neck is perfect. Not a single crack, chip or anything. The only things worth mentioning is a few marks on the body. I've tried to take pictures of it.
Comes in original case, and shipping is included.

SOLD!

Hi there, my fellow low-enders!

Sad to see this go, but I need to update my PA system. 
She's almost mint. No fret wear, and only one small ding. Neck is straight as possible. Plays like butter and sounds even better!

Uses regular strings and double ball.  Bacchus pickups and Aguilar OBP-3 preamp. Controls are Master Vol(Pull up=Preamp ON/OFF),Balance, Master Tone (passive),Treble, Middle, Bass, Mid Freq SW, Series/Parallel SW

It's the same bass as this one: https://reverb.com/item/21796598-bacchus-woodline-headless-5-2018-spring-collection-limited

Price include shipping to Europe, in original bag and well packed. Can be delivered in London the 18.-19. of January

Traded basses with Theo and it was smooth as silk. Will do it again any day.

Recommended!

REDUCED!! £1000 takes this puppy home!

I'm not able to make friends with the mighty 6, so I'm offering her to someone who might tame her.

US made, and close to mint condition. The truss rod cover is missing, and that is the only fault I can find.
The previous owner swapped the bridge for a Hipshot unit for some reason. Nothing wrong with the original, that you'll get as well. Will even send with it a new set of strings.

Shipping to western Europe included.

Been getting some PM's about the damage. 
The crack was very small and vas fixed by a pro with a few drops of glue. Check out his work here: https://bit.ly/2RJlS1m

Will accept returns if buyer is not satisfied. Also taking offers.

Hi
Have decided to sell my beloved Pedulla. The bass comes with original case and all the candy that belongs there.
Specs are:

- Neck thru, 34" scale
 -24 frets
- 19mm spacing
- 5 piece maple neck w/ bubinga stringers
- Ebony board w/ some sapwood figuring
- Cocobolo top wood
- Soft Maple body wings
- Bartolini/Pedulla Pickups
- Bartolini/Pedulla 9V Preamp w/Thunderguts mid switch.
- Dunlop recessed flush mount straplocks
- Gold Hardware

The reason for the low price is that the bass received a knock on the back of the neck. I didn't noticed it until I changed strings. I took it to a pro builder/repair guy, and he fixed it. It is as good as new, and more stable than a very stable genius. I have tried to take a picture of it, but it's hard to spot. 
Shipping to Europe included.

Sold!

TOR WHY!!!!!

Well, what can I say? I doesn't see much action here. I know that I most likely is going to regret selling this. Especially in a few years, when I see what the sell for then...

£1500 and she is yours. And she will never leave you. Unlike that other one...

Hi

You have a PM, Ziggy.

Will now ship in a flightcase for £1850!
 

Up and about!

Hi
Up for grabs is my Warwick Infinity 5. The bass is from 2000, and is in good condition. I'm not 100% sure that the active/passive switch work, but other than that the bass is a peach. Everything works in active mode, which is where I like to be. The original plastic just-a-nut has been replaced with a brass just-a-nut. MEC pickups and preamp. The internet is full of reviews, test and whatyoumightneed about this extraordinary bass, so I'm not gonna bore you with it. 

Comes in a gig bag flight case, and price include shipping with tracking to western Europe. Other than that, give me a holler and we'll figure it out. Will be packed up real good.

Bass is located in Norway.

The bass has been sold.
