South East Bass Bash No.9, Surrey, Saturday 26th September 2015
Oldman replied to silverfoxnik's topic in Events
I will also be bringing an EarCandy Ethan 1x10 B -
As mentioned in the Fretted post, I have decided to cut down my flock of basses and offer up for sale this Fretless version of the RUACH Fulcrum 5 string Bass. I commissioned both basses January 2013, they have been gigged 2 or 3 times each and hang on the Man Cave wall. The neck profile was copied from my Warwick Thumb and is fairly accurate considering its a 5iver, easy to play. As you can see it is an impressive looking bass, sleek lines with a Scorpio motif at the 12th fret ! Identical in construction to the Fretted version also posted here on this forum. 35" scale, 18mm bridge spacing, 10mm at the Nut, La Bella Flats Black hardware, Headway Piezzo acoustic bridge pickup and passive Volume and tone controls, this Bass sings. Body and Neck are Flame Maple with a Black Pin Stripe and the top is a Maple Quilt, neck is top quality Ebony which was hard to source due to the thumb rest extension length required. Natural Wax finish. Not looking for trades at this stage but you can try me. Some snaps; This is the front of the twins [attachment=201159:Ruach Twins Front.JPG] This is the Back [attachment=201162:Back RUACH Twins.JPG] Thumb rest extension [attachment=201160:Thumb Rest RUACH.JPG] Hanging around [attachment=201161:20150106_202356.jpg] Together [attachment=201164:RUACH Rear.jpg] This bass is the most 'Organic' bass I have ever played and would suit an acoustic type setup. It has a chambered body making it possibly the lightest fretless in Christendom ! The Twins will on view at the Bass Bash this Saturday. Thanks for looking

I have decided to cut down my flock of basses and offer up for sale (firstly) the fretted version of the RUACH Fulcrum 5 string Bass. I commissioned both basses January 2013, they have been gigged 2 or 3 times each and hang on the Man Cave wall. The neck profile was copied from my Warwick Thumb and is fairly accurate considering its a 5iver, easy to play. 35" Scale, 18mm spacing at Bridge, 10mm at Nut, LA Bella Rounds. Black Hardware, Gotoh 'M' machines and two piece Bridge. Two Twin Coil Aaron Armstrong pickups active two knob electrics. High Grade Ebony fretboard, 24 frets, dot markers are abalone and MOP, front 3mm side 2mm. Body wood is figured Maple as is the neck wood with a quilt Maple top wood on the front and black pin stripes in a natural wax finish. Sorry to move it along but I'm gigging (when we get some) my Overwater Contemporary Jazz and as much as I love the aesthetics of this bass I have decided to sell at a massive discount to New. I'd consider a partial trade but would really like to sell for Cash. Some snaps: Front body and controls [attachment=201144:RUACH Body and Controls.jpg] Headstock [attachment=201145:RUACH Headstock.jpg] Headstock [attachment=201143:Rear of Headstock.JPG] Rear of Bass [attachment=201142:Rear of Bass.JPG] And the twins [attachment=201148:Ruach Twins Front.JPG] Thanks for looking Truss rod cover and the rear cavity have a neat magnetic system so no pesky screws and resultant screwdriver damage. This bass can be tried out at this Saturday's Bass Bass

I bought a Godin 4 String Fretless from Emanuel way back, about 2 and a Half years. It was in Black (obvious for me) and had the Baggs Pre, in perfect condition for its year. Despite the distance between us the transaction went perfect and I received the Bass on Christmas Eve 2012. Lovely bass, great transaction, would certainly deal with Emmanuel again.
