warwickhunt Posted July 7, 2012 Share Posted July 7, 2012 (edited) Recently bought this from a fellow BCer but despite my best efforts I am not, nor ever will be, a 5 string player! Original thread. [url="http://basschat.co.uk/topic/134276-fsft-hamer-cruise-5-2-tek-model-sold-pending/page__hl__hamer"]http://basschat.co.u...page__hl__hamer[/url] £350 +postage (no case but will pack very well or could possibly sell a case for it to go in). The 2-Tek bridge certainly helps the sustain but luckily this is the Mk II bridge and as such the bass is lighter than were it the Mk I (9lb 12oz). The neck is nice and shallow and the action is pretty low and light. All round a really nice bass, just a shame it isn't a 4 string... coincidentally I would swap for the 4 string version! No major dings, dinks or worming, with a light bit of player wear to the back of the neck behind the first position/3rd fret.

GazzBass Posted July 10, 2012 Share Posted July 10, 2012 Hi Dude, Apart from hard cash, would your desire for another 4 stringer possibly stretch to something other than the same again - the B string Just asking???? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/quote] Hmmm. I'm being a bit dim tonight; have you got a 4 string Cruise to trade? I would consider other trades but it'd have to be something interesting.

GazzBass Posted July 10, 2012 Share Posted July 10, 2012 Apologies for the duff message! Yes I have something interesting, however it is unfortunately not a Cruise..........pm'd Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
warwickhunt Posted July 17, 2012 Author Share Posted July 17, 2012 It's been said before on the other thread but I'll say it again; you'd be stunned at how good this bass really is for the money... no in fact, regardless of the money! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/quote] Hmmm not trying to rub it in but... this really was/is a stonking bass and the buyer (not paid but good for the promise I'm sure) is getting a pro quality USA bass for the money that you'd pay for a cheapie!
