Oh, and the weight is around 4kgs. Feels really light. I am away from home until tomorrow, then I will let you know the exact weight. Thanks

[quote name='dhammers' timestamp='1483269817' post='3205715'] weight? how would you describe the neck (for instance, against the Fender Precision or Jazz)? and is this different from a standard Votan? [/quote] Hello, the differences between the standard Votàn can be found above in the comments - type of wood on the body and neck plate. The neck to me is very comfortable. A lot smaller than precision and very similar/little thicker than standard jazz. To me the bass is very easy to play and the neck is really fast. It's probably the most comfortable bass I've played - but then again - I haven't been playing bass for that long. I guess it's best to try it yourself :-)

Bump

PM Please

Bump.

No longer for sale.

As confirmed by Mr Gerald Marleaux - this is indeed the Votan X-Tra. Price adjusted now. ''HI Pawel, its a Votan X-tra..a special model for session musik here in Germany. Different to regular Votan XS is Alder body, worn black finish, special battery and EQ cover. Plate for neck screws This bass was build in June 2014 best''

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EJXAvbRHwDM I guess it would sound similar to this. Probably a little warmer? Fantastic bass, good luck with the sale.

[quote name='KingChrome' timestamp='1482479993' post='3200854'] Hey Pawel, the normal XS has no plate on the back, the neck is fixed only with screws. The wood is also different, it´s alder. This makes the bass a bit "cheaper", but electronics etc. are the same. I have a Votan x-tra too and love it, but without the picguard and no dots. So I guess yours is a little special... Cheers, Sascha [/quote] Thank you for that, isn't the neck a little bit slimmer on the XS too? I love this bass a lot and I wouldn't let it go if I didn't have to. Anyway, I will wait for Mr Gerald Marleaux to reply with the details and then adjust the listing and the price. Kind Regards Pawel

[quote name='KingChrome' timestamp='1482468044' post='3200808'] It´s an Marleaux Votan X-tra in WBK [url="https://www.session.de/MARLEAUX-Votan-X-Tra-WBK.html?gclid=Cj0KEQiAkO7CBRDeqJ_ahuiPrtEBEiQAbYupJQvFrztGVTsEX7hSU16lYWjAwIes-sNCuYy0zJR5zaAaAvoy8P8HAQ"]https://www.session....5zaAaAvoy8P8HAQ[/url] Cheers, Sascha [/quote] Hello Sasha, You are right - the bass in your link looks the same so might as well be this one. However, when you go online and check Marleaux Votan XS #5 in the gallery here: [url="http://www.marleaux-bass.com/bass_votan_xs0.html"]http://www.marleaux-..._votan_xs0.html[/url] it looks the same too. Do you know what the differences are? I can notice that mine has fret markers too, when the ones on the photos do not. Apart from that - they look the same. I have messaged Gerald himself with some detailed photos of the bass to confirm the model and year. BASS ON HOLD until it is clear what I am selling. Thank you for your information Sasha.

PM sent.

[quote name='therealting' timestamp='1482188117' post='3198392'] Phone - Photobucket has become completely unusable for me as a result. I don't bother looking at ads with photos on them any more. A Gumtree link is a great idea (: [/quote] Well, enjoy - I hope the looks won't disappoint :-)

[quote name='therealting' timestamp='1482187503' post='3198379'] Bet this is beautiful - shame Photobucket directs me into an endless stream of ads [/quote] I have this same problem.

After the model update - NEW PRICE - 1200GBP Hello everyone, So... I got the bass of a very nice gentleman from Germany (got it through BC) and fell in love with it. Did not put it down for over a month. Now looking for a change. It is a beautifully made instrument. Handmade in Germany. Great, powerful, modern sound - that's the reason for sale. Condition is really good. I would say 8.5/10 with only few minor dings. The finish is custom - road worn kind of thing - it's hard to capture on the photos, so I had to use the flash. - one piece maple neck with rosewood fingerboard - alder body - Delano JSBC pickups - Marleaux 2Bd-EQ + passive tone control - ETS tuning fork - Schaller tuners - Scale: 864 mm / 34" - Nut: 38 mm Sound samples: [url="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PrSInADdrWk"]https://www.youtube....h?v=PrSInADdrWk[/url] Comes with original Marleaux Canto case (Usually about 165 Euros on top) I would consider trades for a vintage precision/MM or partial trades for a MIJ Fender Precision with Rosewood fingerboard. Anyway, if you're interested and have an interesting offer - let me know and we'll go from there. Here's the link for the photos - more available on request.
