I bought this earlier in the year, and I hope Steve doesn't mind me nicking his pictures and some of the bio! It has been a wonderful bass, used in the studio on lots of sessions. I am moving abroad and so it must go.

[color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif]I think it is an ash body, maple on maple neck with abalone dots. Weight is 4.7 kg[/font][/color]
[color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif]The bridge is a lump, all original and I cannot find one like this on any other [/font][/color][color=red][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif]hohner[/font][/color][color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif] anywhere on the net. Tuners are Schaller with one Hipshot Dtuner. The electrics are all new and shielded, very high quality as they were taken from a top of the range Lakland and then re-wired. Mahogony thumb rest and Tort pickguard and truss rod cover.[/font][/color]

[color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif]The pickups are Wizard Eighty-Fours, Wizard says;[/font][/color]

[color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif]Darker, bassier and generally dirtier than the Sixty-Fours, these pickups are overwound to lower the overall tone. Loud and proud these pickups will drive any group.[/font][/color]

[color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif]Overall condition is good. A bit of paint chipped here and there but that just adds to the look and feel.[/font][/color]

[font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif][color=#282828]Looking for £260 posted with a beaten up old hard case. If you want to come and collect from West London, even better (make me an offer!)[/color][/font]
