  1. here im selling the lovelly cort elrick five string bass. ive had this bass for 6 months and i absolutly love it ( i actually preffer playing it to my spector).
    when i first bought it i was really impressed with just how good the finish and playabillity is for a cheap bass! the build quility is easly as good as more expensive basses ive played and thanks to the bartolini pickups the sound is right up there with the big boys too.
    im selling the cort because i need to raise funds for the 36 scale shuker im having made which can be found in the build diary section ( so the purchase money wont be spunked on beer! :) )
    this really is a reluctant sale as i really get on with this bass.
    i currently have the bass strung up with ddarrio semi flat strings that give a nice mellow warm sound but still have some of the highs. when i first got the bass it was strung with normal strings and had a more zingy tone that was great for slappin.
    i cant seem to find a spec as the bass is no longer in production so ill list my own. if anyone finds one please add it to the thread thanks!

    Over all a really nicely put together light weight bass with a great sound for not alot of dollar. NEVER GIGGED AND IN VERY GOOD CONDITION. i would prefer collection but can ship inside the uk but must be paid for and arranged by the buyer.

  2. hey all. just fitted these string to my spector five and i dont like the gauge. great strings tho.
    they are cleartone emp micro treated bass strings.

    they have been fitted to my spector five but there is plenty of length left to fit other basses (spectors a 35 scale anyway)
    ideal for a spector five owner. they are fresh as a daisy and were barley used, i basically fitted them and went oh i prefer litghter gauge. lol

    make me and offer??????? or ill just bin them.

    i paid £25

  3. I had a Dingwall abz five and it was a good bass but I didn't really get on with the angled pickups. Just put my hand in a weird angle. I've only ever had 35" basses and they feel normal to me! I've heard alot about Jon, I'm sure it will be a hog. I believe he's made 36"ers before :-)
