Price Drop £1400 Picked this up recently on here from Mr Travis, original advert attached. Trying to thin the herd but really struggling to choose, so this is simply last in first out. Please see Andys pic and original advert. Lightweight 3.6Kg (Bathroom scales), plays really well and sounds great. Player wear, bit of buckle rub and little marks in the finish but nothing that effects playing. Most obvious pic's attached. Collection or meet within reasonable distance. Shipping possible at buyers cost and risk.- 11 replies

Up for sale is my ACG Dao which I've owned from new. Black Limba body Quilt Maple Top 34" Scale 5 piece Maple/Wenge neck Acrylic Impregnated Maple finger board 16" Radius Asymmetric neck carve 42mm at the nut 22 Fret Between 4Kg and 4.1 Kg (Bathroom scales) Pickups - ACG PB Neck, ACG BZ1 Bridge Preamp - ACG Passive plus (Battery compartment present if you wanted to add) Pick up wise think of it as a P/MM, controls are Volume - Tone - 4 way Rotary - 3 way Toggle. The ACG BZ1 contains ceramic and alnico single coils, with the rotary knob giving options of Ceramic, both parallel, both series or Alnico. The toggle switch then gives PB, Both or BZ1. So it's a really flexible package but most importantly it sounds great with an amazing clarity to the tones. Ergonomics work really well, I find it comfortable to play seated or standing. The combination of bridge position (set far back P bass style) with a generous top horn gives it a really compact/easy access feeling. It's in excellent condition, on close inspection I have spotted one 4mm lacquer crack at the neck pocket, pic attached. My reason for sale is I have an ACG 5 string with the same PUP config and I'm forcing myself to choose between them. Collection or meet for handover within reasonable distance. I have a hiscox and packaging if shipping is required (at buyers cost).

Double bass - Listening Recomendations
Gardenerben replied to Gardenerben's topic in EUB and Double Bass
Thanks for your links, some great variety there. Just wondering what others get the biggest kicks from. Starting point was I really dig the sound of the double bass but am not sure I could ever get to the stage of getting off on my own playing. So a better option was to dive into the great players..... cheaper too! Open on genre, style has me drawn to Pizz playing but not so much the slap and overly percussive stuff. (Great to listen to for 3 minutes but I'm quite quickly sated and moving on). Big gap in my listening experience with arco so that would be something I'd like to explore. -
Care to share your double bass listening recommendations? Those that leave you thinking what an incredible instrument/musician. The solo works from Dave Holland - Emerald Tears & Ones All, have left me eager to explore more.

Couple of pic's added to show a couple of minor marks on the back of the neck. Spoke to a Luthier who said they would most likely 'flat out' but it would be £60 to sort them individually otherwise. Another quote to refinish the back of the neck fully was £125 + VAT. Sure some people wouldn't even notice them, but I do so knocking a bit off. £2350

Had the pleasure of buying a bass from James. Perfect straightforward transaction, wouldn't hesitate to deal again. Top chap.
