[font=Arial, sans-serif][color=#333333][size=3]Nexus shinning 5. Stunning bass. Great tone, feel, fast neck & generous string spacing for slapping. Real head turner, guaranteed to stand out from the crowd. Recent set up by Gerry Haze(top Irish luthier) Pics don't do the bass justice. I'll get better ones up soon. This bass is built to the absolute highest possible standards. [/size][/color][/font]

[color=#333333][font=Arial, sans-serif][size=3]Bass is in Ireland. Upon shipping, bass will be shipped in its own hardcase with further packaging, boxing etc. Details to be confirmed with buyer, [/size][/font][/color]

I can add any picture upon request. Trade wise, Id be interested in high end 5 strings J's, sadowsky, lakland, xotic etc

Thanks for looking guys,

wow, that's crazy... and you're only up the road from me.
I'm curious to know how you came to own it. Was it made for you?
Being in Ireland makes it hard to find anything slightly out of the ordinary, and buying something without holding it first just makes me nervous, even though I've done it twice :D

Hi LBR

Im a newb on these forums but I wish I had signed up earlier, great resource for all things bass. Yeah the nexus is a stunner, a really special piece. Its not getting the playing it deserves so I cant justify holding onto it or afford to for that matter. I'm its 2nd owner, bass is approx 3/4 years old. I bought it off a Polish guy living here who had it built for him.The luthier is also Polish, Check out the website, some weird and wonderful builds there. I can honestly tell you I have never seen craftmanship like this before and its got the tone and feel to match. If your interested, your more than welcome to try it out anytime.

aha, the Polish connection. That's excellent. The website is fun. Some nice stuff. Some MAD stuff... granite fretboards!
We could really do with more importing of exotic instruments so adverts.ie starts looking more like your post and less like an army of Stellahs and Tanglewood Rebel 4ks :D
Thanks for the offer, but I'm looking for a 6 string and my budget is much much less than what you're asking anyway :)
