Hi there its a Takamine TB10. An archtop acoustic/electric bass that can also be played on a stick. See this thread below

 

 

Very cool sounds great on the recording! 👍

What sort of bass is that? I used to play the ‘banjo bass’ in a folk band. It was a bass drum attached to a fender style neck and played upright.

So my reference pickup is on sale...! Genuinely my most favourite vintage but present/punchy tone.

 

I'll probably regret this but here we go. These are new for £140 so I reckon decent price for a hand wound pickup!

 

Postage on top.

 

 

Is the spanner included ? 😁 

Nice P 👍👂👂👍👍👍

Any audio available? For my ears 👂 

Now sold

Definitely Cherry Sunburst and not Honeyburst this one.

 

Not often you see a single-piece body on these. Lovely bass. I’d have been on this had it been a different fingerboard and finish. 

I’d be on it if I had a spare 1’er lying around 😂

I’ve not actually checked the spacing I believe it is 18mm???

Here’s me checking string spacing 😀 not sure if I need to measure from centre of string or offset? Anyway by my method here I’d say yes 18mm 🧐😬

Very comfy for me with small- medium man hands 👋

Lovely bass guessing this is 18mm string spacing version I  had one of these a while ago( should have kept it) wish I could take this off your hands just could not justify adding to the oversized family though.Glwts

Love these pickups, almost makes me want to buy another P just to buy them back and put them in…

 

Lozz is a top man, and these pickups do smooth vintage better than Swiss Toni down the bingo. 
 

Ha ha I was just thinking the same thing ! ‘I could buy these and then buy a P to put them in’ backwards 😂

Indeed ! Why not buy a lovely 2nd hand one for sale in the basschat classifieds 😁
