mybass Posted July 4, 2012 Share Posted July 4, 2012 (edited) Asking price £800 but will consider very close offers..... I need to move this bass on a.s.a.p. Hopefully the mp3 sound sample has attached okay..it is a very straight forward recording into a desk and copied across, no effects or compression. 4 string fretless bass. Bass weighs in at around 6lb 12oz. SINGLE piece Swamp Ash body with 'Tru Oil' finish... 3 piece maple neck wood (some very nice figure/flame) Ebony fingerboard Walnut piece on back of headstock. Schaller 3D bridge black Schaller machine tuners black Seymour Duncan Active Jazz pups with vol/tone/vol/tone The bass was one of two (the other sold) made by me for a shop which has unfortunately been having hard times so this bass has been sitting at home. It is ungigged. The Nut width is almost 40mm The f/board is about 6mm thick and is a compound radius from approx 10" to 16". Side dot 3mm markers on the note ie. on the 'F' 'G' 'A' etc to 24 'note/fret' length. The neck thickness has been left thicker on this bass than normal as I felt the lightness of the Swamp Ash body could do with a little more meatier a neck.....at least it is there to thin down if wanted. No dedicated case for this bass. Please note....I have played mainly fretless bass for many years, designed and built for myself but also for custom orders and I have always used the best parts available as noted here, no cheapo copied parts.....

[/quote] The pickups on the bass for sale are Seymour Duncan Active Jazz ( JJ's I think is their defined model name). I used Seymour's for many years. The pickups on the video are "Delano" humbuckers, very nice and I would definitely try Delano jazz pups too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
