Sean.Robinson Posted July 9, 2008 Share Posted July 9, 2008 (edited) Hi, reposting this as I've moved from feeler to for sale. The bass is in great condition and is a great bass to play however i am pursuing a Shuker custom build and i must get the money from somewhere. As i say this is a very reluctant sale as the bass is perfect for me, great sound, great feel, however i do want to add MIDI as an option and a tremolo and doing this to this bass would only deface it and so im going to pursue a custom build, which if you read the spec in the build diaries you will see is very much influenced by this bass, in particular the neck profile. The bass was made in 2005 and i paid £2400 for it, so I'm looking to sell for around £1500. [b]PRICE DROP; £1200 o.n.o. [/b] For some aditional information on the bass, here is the spec from it; Neck-Through Design Available as 4, and 5-string Left-handed and fretless version available at no additional charge Hollow Ovangkol body with either a AAA-Flamed Maple or AAA-Birdseye Maple top F-Holes carved into top Flamed Maple or Birdseye Maple neck Rosewood fingerboard Scale length: 34" (long scale) 24 frets Active MEC J/TJ pickups Actvie MEC 3-band electronics Finishes: Natural Oil Finish Warwick tuners 2-piece Warwick bridge Warwick security locks Black hardware Just-A-Nut III Weight: 8.38 lbs.(4-string), 9.5 lbs. (5-string) Here are some pictures of the bass and i will post more if requested: Any Questions, please feel free to ask.

steve-soar Posted July 13, 2008 Share Posted July 13, 2008 That's a very pretty bass, I bet it sounds sublime. Do you really what to loose more than a grand on a bass, because you will have to drop the price a bit more before you get any interest. I couldn't loose that much, it would break my heart to let a bass that exquisite go. I can't understand why Warwick prices have been hit so badly, this bass is worth every penny of what you are asking, very best of luck, type bump.

ziggydolphinboy Posted July 17, 2008 Share Posted July 17, 2008 hi there just wondered what these are like for tone / slapping etc regards ziggy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sean.Robinson Posted July 18, 2008 Author Share Posted July 18, 2008 (edited) Hi, the Infinity gets a great slapping tone in my opinion, howerver it isnt a style i play often and i dont know really how best to describe it. This said if you goto [url="http://www.bassplayer.tv/"]http://www.bassplayer.tv/[/url] click 'artist features' and look for 'Norwood Fisher' he plays an Infinity, so that should give you a great demonstration of the sound. Hope this helps Sean [quote name='ziggydolphinboy' post='242231' date='Jul 17 2008, 10:26 PM']hi there just wondered what these are like for tone / slapping etc regards ziggy.[/quote] Edited July 19, 2008 by Sean.Robinson Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
