  1. Adamovic Jupiter Custom Bass

     

    Nikola Adamovic is IMO one of the very best luthiers anywhere. I have owned everything from Alembic to Zon and this is the best fretted 6-string bass I have every played.

    However, I am going to switch to playing fretless bass exclusively and I am having built a wonderful Adamovic 6 fretless, so this one is for sale.

    The bass is very responsive and plays great. The most special feature about Adamovic basses is the building of the neck, it takes two years and this makes the neck very stable and improves the sound drastically.

    Specs:


    - White limba body
    - Olive wood top
    - Ash/maple/guariuba neck with a 34" scale, 24 frets
    - Jazz bass neck design, super comfortable, very low action
    - Greenheart fingerboard
    - Passive toneblend
    - Häussel single coil pickups
    - Weight: 3,8kg

    Very good condition, built in 2017.

  2. The Duncans have a bit more midrange, especially upper midrange which most players would associate with a more "Fender-like" tone but you can easily dial that in with a good EQ, the tone overall is not that different. I would rather go for the Aeros and turn down the passive tone bled a bit if needed. As I stated before, the Aguilar Super Double makes much more of a difference in comparison. It also depends on what rig you play and the tone you want to achieve.

  3. I have received a PM from a potential buyer and I want to answer it here in the forum as well. There was never an issued with Windmill Instruments, they were well made and the price is very good in this ad here. The only problem is the owner Marco Schoots who scammed people, you can read about this on talkbass.com.

  4. Windmill was a brand by Marco Schoots, the basses were made by a manufacturer in Poland. Quality basses but Marco ran the buisness into the ground unfortunately. I ordered a bass and never got it, fortunately I was able to get the money back via PayPal.
