    Modulus Quantum 6 Q6 Buckeye Burl - SOLD

    in Basses For Sale

    Posted · Edited by mrbassman_de
    SOLD

    Selling my wonderful and MINT Modulus Quantum 6 with Buckeye Burl Top. It‘s a cracking bass but 17mm string spacing is too small for my fingers.

    Specs:

    Alder Body,

    Graphite neck bolt-on,

    Bartolini pickups

    Aguilar OBP-3 preamp

    Dunlop Straplocks

    35 scale, 17 mm spacing at bridge

    Low action, neck straight, sound has lots of attack, deep lows and crisp highs, sounds definitely ‚modern‘. Technically perfect. 

    SOLD

    Ken Smith BT circuit 1991

    Yes indeed ! Congratulations ! That one was the very beginning of my life long Smith love. Sold it due to financial trouble and regretted that sale immediately.  Tried to get it back years later and now it popped up here at TB...

    A very good BT5 ! I love that fine Koa grain.

    Thanks for the pictures. That helps a lot.

    Ken Smith BT circuit 1991

    in General Discussion

    Posted

    Hi all,

     

    Anyone out there who owns an old Ken Smith BT bass with a 3-knob preamp - preferably 1991 or older ? I would be very happy if I could get a picture from the preamp with solderings and wirngs intact. I just received a BT6 from that era where the previous owner swapped out the original pre and unsoldered some wires. Now I need the correct connections ... Anyone who can help me...?

     

    Regards

    Rainer

    Fodera Matt Garrison MG4 Maple Burl top & Back

    in Basses For Sale

    Fodera Matt Garrison 4 Maple Burl Top & Back

    This is a breathtaking MG4 with super rare Presentation Grade Maple Burl Top AND Back and numerous other upgrades !

    Although a very unique and fantastic bass I would be happy to trade it against a Fodera 5 or 6 with similar value. I would highy prefer Emperor, Emperor 2, MG or Imperials, perhaps Monarch, no AJ model, Presentations or Bolt-Ons, no 36". Let me know what you have.

    Spec:

    Presentation Grade Maple Burl full top and back
    Maple Burl electronics cover plate, cut out from the Back wood piece
    Walnut body,
    Chestnut tone block (now distinct)
    5-pc Ash neck
    Ebony board with Abalone blocks, 22 frets
    33 scale, 19mm +/-0.5mm at bridge
    Year: around 2005
    Pickups: Seymour Duncan Dual Coils with Ebony cover (non-eyposed)
    Pope preamp
    Ebony ramp
    Weight: 4,44 kg
    Original case and tools

    Action is very low and playability is unbeatable. Even if this is one of the smaller Foderas the sound is as dominant and responsive like on the bigger models.

    Foderas with exhibition grade top and back wood are extremely rare finds. This bass retails new for more than 15.000 USD plus shipping/VAT. Two after-market Ebony ramps will come with the bass.

    The bass is top condition, only 2 very small dings on the body sides which are not visible without a close inspection. Frets, Truss Rod, Action, Tuners, Electronics - everything works perfect. The bass features a SHORTER fretted area (22 frets) to improve the slap capabilities. I personally prefer slapping on 21/22 fret basses because it sounds fuller and more organic than slapping on 24 fret boards.

    Shipping from Duesseldorf / Germany.

    Asking 7.000 GBP or 7.700 Euro plus shipping from Duesseldorf.

    Tradewise I am looking ONLY (!) for the following:

    Other Foderas (see above), pre-CBS Fenders, Alleva Coppolo 5ers, Ken Smith Elite 5ers. Nothing else please ! 2 for 1 or 1 plus cash for one is fine with me.

    Fender Precision Bass 1964 - SOLD

    in Basses For Sale

    Posted · Edited by mrbassman_de

    Selling or trading my original 1964 Fender Precision Bass. Nicely worn. Professional refret. Everything else original including case which is worn as well. Ready to gig.
     
    It is an early 64 PB with the clay dots. Checked everything like nail holes, pickup wires, matching patterns under the serial plate and in the neck pocket etc etc. Previous owner has damaged the logo and scratched the patent numbers. Remaining part is still there and original.
     
    Nice strong output. Truss rod screw still flush with the neck end. Everything works as expected.

    F Bass BN5 Ambrosia Maple - SOLD

    in Basses For Sale

    Posted · Edited by mrbassman_de

    Selling my F Bass BN5 with breathtaking Ambrosia Maple Top and lots of unique features. Pure elegance.

     

    Specs

    Ash Body
    One piece Maple Neck with highly figured Birdseye Maple Board
    34.5 scale
    Black Hardware
    Oil Finish
    Dunlop Straplocks
    Tara Labs Wiring from pickups to pre and from pre to output jack

    Very nice sounding, playing and looking BN5. Some lighter wear on the body as the oil finish is not as reliable like the regular poly finish. But visible only at a closer look and nothing which I could show in pics.
