I tell you what, you're dead right! I'm in no epic rish to sell as this bass is simply stunning, looks and sounds outstanding. I'm not a 4 string player, but I am tempted to keep it... Currently still seeking cash plus trade or just cash offers... fresh strings, fresh batteries, fitted hiscocks case, strap locks, D-tuners, mint condition... What's not to like!

Hi Guys, Up for sale (possibly trade) here is my ACG Finn SC Classic 4 strings. Its the 37th Bass made by Alan and the 1st of this particular kind. It's simply an amazingly well crafted and beautiful bass with bags of tonal possibilities and looks to die for. The bass is in perfect mint condition, I did go over it very carefully and I cannot see a single blemish anywhere on it anywhere, not even a hint of buckle rash... there are no marking at all on this! It may as well be new. It is a Custom spec level ACG bass, it's a 4 string 34" scale bass with a 5 piece body made from stripy ebony/sycamore/wenge/sycamore/stripy ebony. The neck is a 7 piece made from mac ebony/sycamore/wenge/sycamore/wenge/sycamore/mac ebony. The fret board is perfect and plays beautifully, its an acryilic impregnated flame sycamore board with mac ebony binding. The pickups are 2 ACG RFB pickups with an ACG EQ01 pre-amp, this combination gives you amazing tonal possibilities, the ACG pre-amps are known for their tonal range, with the ability to tweak and expand certain frequencies to basically give you what ever sound and vibe you want. The tuners are Hipshot ultralite with a hipshot D-tuner fitted on the E string, though I will be including the original tuner so you can remove it if you want. The bridge is a Hipshot A type bridge, high mass and very solid. The bass is finished with an oil rub giving it a beautiful sheen. The bass comes with a custom fitted Hiscocks hardcase, again in mint condition and made specifically for this bass. There are the 2 locking keys in the case as well as the original tuner and also a set of Jim Dunlop strap locks. All in all this is a mint condition ACG custom bass with all the trimmings for sale at a fraction of the cost of a new one, with no wait and an amazing combination of beautiful woods. I'm selling this purely because I took it in trade, and as much as I love ACG's, I play 7 string bass and a 4 string just isn't enough for me! So it's on offer here to you guys. I'm on [u][b]07912222127[/b][/u]so call if you have any questions at all, and I'm based in Wickford in Essex, viewing is welcome and collection is preferred though I can post if needed. [u][b]TRADE DETAILS:[/b][/u] [b]The sale is set a £900 cash for the bass, the case, the strap locks and the additional tuner. I want to get at least £400 cash from this bass, so if you want to trade I'd want cash, plus a bass worth £500 at least. I'm open to options, so let me know what you got! [/b] The photos below are a combination of ACG stock photos, and ones I took this morning. The ones with the black background are stock, the rest are my photos from today! Russ.

Hey man, well the total price including a hardcasecand shipping from the states was £575. So I guess you'd just need to minus the difference between the cost of a K7 and a K5. I'd guess it would be £480 or so including shipping and a hardcase.

Well a lot of our stuff require a B string, our guitarist play a John Petrucci Custom 7 string guitar, so it makes sense to have a B on bass. I play a fair bit of tappy type stuff as well, hence the 10 string etc. so with a 7 string, most if not all songs I tap on can be bounced down to a 7. So with a 7 string, I find myself not needing to change basses over and over again. I have one 7 tuned standard, and one tuned D and with that we're all good!
