Thank's for Your reply, MrWalker. I also think this might be a custom shop Product, or perhaps a custom rebuild With quality parts here in Scandinavia. The latter is based mainly on the Warwick electronics route cover. The tuners does actually have a kind of Warwicky angle to them as well...

Hi! I am thinking about wandering into the world of five strings, and the following has appeared on a sales page here in Norway. It is supposedly one of two basses specialordered by a now deceased Norwegian bassplayer who was quite well known in his day. He kept the other one, and this was sold. The story is not confirmed... Anyway, this is what I can tell from the picturesand the sellers description: The headstock doesn’t look like any otherFernandez I have seen online or anywhere else. I can’t say if the body is correct. It has two strap studs on the bottom end. The pickups are basstec. I think the tuners might be Gotoh. Possibly a Kahler bridge. I have no idea about the electronics, but they sit behind a Warwick cover on the back. The pots are, according to the seller hi, mid, bass, volume. The 5th one is said to be tone, but I think it might be panning between PUs or a second vol. pot. There are some pictures in the ad in theattached link, and I will add som more in a comment. The asking price is about 650$, but I think I might be able to haggle it down a bit. Any comments, thoughts and answers are welcome Bass gitar

Hi, folks. I thougt it was time for me to write a short presentation of my self and what I do (or try to...) I am currently in the mid- fourties, and just recently picked up bass playing again after about 20 years of thinking to my self: "why dont i play that stick standing in the corner any more...?" Back in the days i learned to play on a Cort Space G2, headless travelbass with licensed by Steinberger hardware. I still have this little Axe, and am thinkin about using it mainly to teach the bas(s)ics to my youngest, who at the age of 13 is beginning to become interested. About a year ago I got myself a loaner from a bass- playing friend. It's a Squier JV- series Jazz bass from 1983, and he's not getting it back anytime soon! The bass is played through a Gallein Kruger MB200 amp with a GK MB 210 cab (400w) on the recieving end. I recently startet playing With a band, doing Country/ Americana type Music (which I never thought I'd be playing, but playing is fun regardeless og musikal style and genre). So: That's the short of it, and i want to thank you all for the informative and meaningful reading- experience i have on this forum. Best Hal
