SOLD: Wood and Tronics Zoid Custom - now only 1050£ £1600

[juliusmonk]

Hi

I recently got two 5-string basses with the intention to keep just one - tough call but one has to go...

So for sale only, this totally awesome W&T Zoid Custom. Jawdropping in the flesh, and I don't say this lightly - truly a work of art! It was custom made for BCer basscell, I am its second owner.

Specs:

ZOID shape / Bolt-on /
Scale length: 34"
Strings interspace at the bridge: 17.5mm
Neck wood options: 3-piece Wenge / Maple / Wenge
Fretboard: Maple
Frets: 24, Medium-small size
Position dots on fretboard: Abalone 6mm
Body: Mahogany
Top: Maple with transparent colour stain
Pickups: Dual Sonic configuration Haeussel/Wood&Tronics custom Alnico 5
Toggle switch selects bridge pickup coils (either or both)
Pickup covers: Maple
Tuners: Hipshot Ultralites
Bridge: Wood&Tronics
Preamp: East/W&T 3-band preamp with internal frequency presets.
Finish: Fine-satin

A variety of tones are available from the East preamp with coil switch - the bridge pickup seems to have an Alembic- inspired design. The tone could perhaps be described as an 'alembicized' jazz, but these things are subjective anyway. Very comfortable neck.

The bass is essentially mint, with only a few very very light use marks. The frets are a bit sharp on the treble side of the fingerboard, but that's about it.

Straight sale price with a soft/hard (rigid) Rockbag and shipping included is [s]1300[/s]£ - now only 1150.

Any questions, please drop me a pm.

Thanks!

Hey Andy, surely you have enough zoid loveliness in your life already!
Best you buy it for me, and I'll let you buy it for me! Lol.

[juliusmonk]

So now only 1050£ - absolutely last price

Please do not offer trades for this value, this is a cash only offer, or trade + minimum cash 400£ - thanks

Oh, good grief, this is almost beyond temptation, but with two NBD's next week I really must resist!

[juliusmonk]

Almost gone... But still here at the mo

[juliusmonk]

Unbelievably, bump

[pantherairsoft]

Incredible bass. The zoid is such a cool shape too... And at this crazy price!? Wow.

What's going on? This bass should have been sold many times over at this price. Sadly it's a one in one out situation for me so it will have to go to some lucky person.
Buy, buy, buy.............. That is all!

[juliusmonk]

Thanks guys - bass is on hold now
