Great price for a great bass! 😎

Bump

I am wondering the same thing! As far as bang-for-buck goes, this has to be one of the best deals on BC at the moment. But the marketplace is rammed with Fenders and Fender-alikes. People want what they see, and what they see is Fenders with maybe the odd Rickenbacker, Musicman or Gibson depending on the music genre. They see what they like and they like what they see, so it all becomes a bit cyclical. As far as build and sound quality go, ACG instruments are right up there with the likes of Status, Wal, Sadowsky, Lakland, Alembic, Roscoe, Spector and their ilk (and I've played most of them) - but because few bassists have seen, heard or tried them, they are regarded as a bit "out there" and so not worth the financial risk. Possibly a bit like Shuker basses, there is a bit of a mentality that "they are British, how good can they be?". And yet, apply that logic to Wal or Status and, er... 🤔 I dunno. What I do know is that it's a lovely bass and I will be happy to keep it and continue using it. It just doesn't quite fit what I am currently doing, or plan to do in the near future. If I was in a wedding/function band, and had to cover a wide variety of sound and playing styles, this bass would be perfect. But I'm not, so it isn't. I don't have a huge (or even modest) budget for music equipment, so can't afford to keep this beauty purely for home use. Even though my daughter loves it and wants it to be hers.... 😆 😉

PM incoming 🙂

In case anyone is wondering what these basses sound like (not my actual bass, but a very similar one)... https://youtu.be/Jg9x8MIGv50

Some lovely basses on here at the moment, and this is one of them! 😆 If cash is in short supply, hit me with some trade offers! Basses only, but my tastes are quite wide. Particularly keen on Fenders (especially J basses), Musicman and G&L (ideally M2500). Four string or five string...

Lovely bass and a great price!

£1100 for cash. Trade value still £1250.

Wow! Never seen one of these before. Lovely 💜

On hold for a few days for a local Basschatter 🙂
