leprechaun Posted September 23, 2010 Share Posted September 23, 2010 (edited) Since I've been reacquainted with my old Overwater I'm going to have to let this one go. Purchased from the fantastic richardd in January this year, I have enjoyed playing this bass immensely but when my old Overwater came up for sale I jumped at the chance... This particular Valenti is a Roscoe Beck alike with the following spec: Alder P style Body Pau Ferro Fretboard Sherwood Green Finish w/Matching H/S Nordstrand Dual Coil pickups 24 Frets, 19mm string spacing Black Hardware HipShot B style bridge UltraLite tuning gears Humbucker/Single coil mode for each pickup Tortoise P/G Aguilar OBP-1 (bass/treble boost only) Passive mode - volume pull pot Contoured heel for easier access to the upper frets A wide range of fender-esque tones are available and it is supremely easy to play. Build quality is second to none, the fit and finish being perfect. There is some very minor buckle rash and a tiny nick in the headstock, other than that it's in great condition. I'd be looking at £775 cash or a trade for a mex/jap Tele (plus cash) or a trade for a decent acoustic guitar.... In some of the photos the bass looks slightly blue for some reason, the ones where it looks green are more like how it actually looks. The photos in [url="http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=55013&hl=valenti"]this[/url] thread are probably a truer representation of the colour. Cheers, Sean.
