smaz Posted September 30, 2013 Share Posted September 30, 2013 (edited) Price: [s]£350[/s] [s]£300[/s] [b]£290[/b]- I've just bought another bass so this needs to go! I'm selling my Farida AB10-N acoustic bass (complete with original hard case), as I have never played it that much & after my collection has grown to 10 basses, I need to make some room! It's a lovely bass, plays beautifully & sounds fantastic. If I had a need for it I'd keep it, but it doesn't quite fit into any bands I'm in. It has spent most of its time protected in its case, is in great condition - there is one scratch on the top side of the bass(as pictured), which is usually where my arm is. The hard case comes complete with keys for the locks, still in the original bag! If you have any questions, or would like more photos please let me know. I'm based in Basingstoke, you're welcome to come & try the bass. I'd prefer collection/meetup, but will post at buyers expense.

The solid Spruce soundboard moves freely, instantly responsive to the breadth and depth of tone generated by the AB-10. All the details of this guitar, from the bone nut to the rosewood neck, are of the highest quality, making this guitar a stand-out professional instrument at a reachable price-point. The solid plugged-in tone provided by the Fishman Prefix pre-amp has proved popular with a broad spectrum of players, including Bass day UK founder Stevie Williams, Tord Averland-Knudsen of The Wombats, and Chris Brown of the Leona Lewis band.

AndyTravis Posted September 30, 2013 Share Posted September 30, 2013 Great basses these, a mate has one which he had defretted; I ask him to sell it me every time I see him. They're loud for an aeb too. Alas, lack of funds says no. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smaz Posted October 3, 2013 Author Share Posted October 3, 2013 I can imagine it would be great fretless, I'd not thought of that. Maybe I should keep it & try it... ! Bump Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bassdude BE Posted April 28, 2014 Share Posted April 28, 2014 Nice bass! I've owned some Farida's before and they were definitely bang for the buck, if my 5 string sells i might just snap this up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smaz Posted May 1, 2014 Author Share Posted May 1, 2014 It is a lovely bass indeed, but I have no need for it & am trying to free up some space! Bump, plus two possible trade interests: * Lakland Duck Dunn precision * Genz Benz Streamliner 600 or 900 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
