andybassdoyle Posted September 4, 2012 Share Posted September 4, 2012 If I'm honest I'm not quite sure what this is. I picked the bass up a few years ago as part of a deal having no knowledge of it's pedigree, at the time I thought it might be good due to a set-up and fingerboard shoot in the bass gallery plus the kent armstrong pickups and electronics. It is a great bass although I have to confess that I'm not really a fretless player so it's never go a lot of use with me. The action is low and it plays well, tonally it sounds like a bass from the 80s which, to look at it, is what I guess it might be. The circuit is passive but quite flexible. I don't have a spec to confirm exactly how it works but I think there are two volumes, two tones and a coil tap for each pickup, finally a 3 way pickup selector. Although I find it a bit unconventional to use it does actually work quite well on the odd gig when I've had chance to explore it. Currently strung E-C but I'll throw in a B string if required. The bass is quite heavy but balances well. It's also quite big due to the shape and fairly large headstock. I didn't pay much for this so I'm passing it on cheap. If you know more than me and recognise that this is worth significantly more then feel free to let me know or make me a better offer!!! If you want it shipped then no problem but that's extra however I will throw in a gig bag to the listed price. Hardcase is extra.
