*SOLD* Overwater Perception 5 string with fretted and fretless necks £750

[timo]

I bought this on ebay a while ago but after receiving my custom fretless I can't justify keeping this too. It was made for the legend that is Scott Devine (who sold it on here a few years ago) and has both fretted and fretless necks.

The fretless neck has a lined ebony board and is extended to get stupidly high, the fretted neck is rosewood and hits 26 frets on the G-A strings. Both necks are incredibly comfortable to play, I've particularly bonded with the fretless (best neck I've had my hands around) especially with the single bridge pickup and flatwound strings. The electronics are passive with volume, tone and a mute switch and the bass has a locking jack and Schaller dual design straplocks - I can include a set of the bits for the strap if you want.

Not sure of the main body wood (can't find the original sale post on here to check) but it has a beautiful macassar ebony top which I'll definitely miss. It's also the lightest bass I own by a long way. My back will miss that. It comes with a Hiscox case and sets of both roundwound and flatwound strings, not sure of the brand but they have red windings.

I'd like £750 posted, feel free to come and try it in Sheffield, any questions give me a shout. Cheers for looking.

What a nice bass...

[wrinkleygit]

with redundancy about to rear it's ugly head I'm not sure I should be asking question's about this, what's the scale length & string spacing at bridge, mike b.

[timo]

Sorry, forgot to mention that. It's 34" scale, 17mm spacing at the bridge according to my trusty ruler.
