martin lee Posted June 4, 2011 Share Posted June 4, 2011 (edited) Thinking i would like a 4 string in the near future so ive decided to hopefully find this a good home. ive had this bass for over a year now and its been a treat, a great all round bass. Even though im little and its big ive found it comfortable around the neck, the weight will be 10lbs + but ill weigh properly when im near some scales. offers around £1250, not looking for a part exchange at the moment. spec as follows: Overwater J5 35" scale length Swamp ash body Maple neck Flame maple fingerboard Hipshot ultralight tuners Single bridge pieces with through body stringing Dimazio ultrajazz pickups John East buffer pre amp, (volume, pan, tone) [attachment=81699:DSC00560.JPG] [attachment=81700:DSC00561.jpg] [attachment=81703:DSC00566.jpg] [attachment=81704:DSC00557.jpg] [attachment=81702:DSC00564.jpg] Edited September 21, 2011 by martin lee Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
STU-SBL Posted June 5, 2011 Share Posted June 5, 2011 Just to add. I've played this bass numerous times and it's great 'simple is, as simple does'... and this bass does it well! Nice weight (although I'm big and make everything look little) lovely sound and a pleasure to play - if I didn't already have a few and my eye on a new build I'd be taking this off Mr Lee, as its a great all round bass.

NJE Posted July 27, 2011 Share Posted July 27, 2011 That looks lovely, can you tell me what the string spacing is? I had an old Overwater Jazz and the string spacing was quite narrow like a Stingray 5 but I am looking out for something with a nice broad neck and 19mm spacing. Cheers, Nathan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheers, Nathan[/quote] Hi Nathan, The bass is 19mm string spacing, and if this is of interest to you the board is 47mm at the nut and 76mm at the 21st fret. cheers martin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
