Hi all,
I am selling my Mensinger Cazpar 5 string, 32" scale, with the 5th string being a high C instead of a low B (EADGC).
I am the second owner of this bass guitar. I bought it in June 2020 (after arriving in the UK) from Basschat user Embra, who got it directly from Adrian Kuban-Maruszczyk in September 2019. I always dreamed of a bass with this configuration, but I don't have time to play anymore, and I'll have to leave the UK in some time - so the bass has to go.
The bass has never left my home and is in excellent condition, except for 3 tiny spots in the bridge (A string slot) where the chrome has peeled. I have highlighted those spots in the bridge picture. The bass guitar could also use a new set of strings.
I am including the original Mensinger strap, Mensinger gig bag, and paperwork. Also, a couple of freebies which are the bass items I have left: A VOX Amplug 2, a small stand, and a tuning fork (last picture).
The price is £1100 £1000 £900. I strongly prefer collection: I am located in Camden Town, London, but I am willing to meet halfway or to take a short train to meet if you want to try out the bass guitar. Please note that I do not own an amp (only kept the amplug, which is not great), so please consider this if you want to meet.
I can arrange fully insured UPS shipping if collection is impossible (buyer pays postage).
