Confirmed - I bought it to first owner (Michael), a really good guy based in Toronto. He is mostly on Talkbass. He really didn’t play it much, and had quite a few NS2. Michael got it from Dave at Ultimate basses. I bought it from Canada and I can say that I wrote off the shipping and import fees, so does three, so it’s a pretty exceptional offer!
Hi all
I am selling this bassmods MF5 in absolutely MINT condition, just strung with a fresh set of Elixir 45-130 (nickel).
I am the first owner and ordered it in the US, but found a Fbass VF5 70 in the meantime meaning I have no use of a second 70's JB.
- Pickups: Nordstrands humcancelling
- 2 pickguards (white & gold)
- Preamp: Bassmods 3 bands
- Alder body / Maple fingerboard (PLEK’d)
- 4.6kg
- 70's pickup spacing

Price: 860 GBP
Everything:
This one just arrived yesterday from Singapore
Body: Ash with Alder wings
FB: Indian Rosewood AAA
PU: PB Aguilar and the JB has been swapped with a Nordstrand NJ5 (but I still have the original one)
Feels and sounds really good - just have to get used to 5 strings as I haven’t played more than 4 strings the past 5 years 🙂
I put some sound... not very clean (just started working on that today) but at least you can have an idea of how it sounds:
