voxpop Posted August 31, 2011 Share Posted August 31, 2011 (edited) Jon is about to finish my 6 string fretless P Bass within the next 3-4 weeks so I will need to sell this .......... Its a [b]1998[/b] custom built 6 string fretless that has a new EMG P style pickup fitted and the latest Shuker preamp running at 18 volts. 34" scale 7 piece Wenge / Maple neck Santos Rosewood fretless board Abalone dots Brass nut Ebony headstock Gotoh tuners Zebrano body EMG pickups, 45J and 45P Latest Shuker 3 band preamp @ 18 volts Locking Jack ABM bridge Strap locks [attachment=88320:_DSC0435_4.jpg] [attachment=88318:_DSC0438_9.jpg] [attachment=88317:_DSC0439_12.jpg] [attachment=88323:_DSC0431_2.jpg] [attachment=88322:_DSC0432_3.jpg] [attachment=88321:_DSC0433_6.jpg] [attachment=88324:_DSC0430_1.jpg] [attachment=88315:_DSC0441_10.jpg] [attachment=88316:_DSC0440_11.jpg] [attachment=88319:_DSC0437_8.jpg] String spacing is adjustable from 16.5 - 19mm. I have it set at 18mm. Width at nut is a very easy to play 57mm Finger board is almost flat Strung with Ti Powerbass strings Comes with two new batteries and a Yamaha case I paid around £1200 for this bass with the upgrades over the last 9 months I have owned it. New build price would be £1700 - £2000.I gig it twice a month and it really is a fantastic bass. This is a rare opportunity to own an early Shuker. Price is a very reasonable £775 collected. I can meet up half way. Edited September 8, 2011 by voxpop Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It now has an updated Shuker preamp ( so much better than the old MK1 ) and a new 45P pickup which Gives a very real P Bass sound.
