patpatel Posted April 7, 2015 Share Posted April 7, 2015 (edited) I'm selling my [b]ESP Navigator Espionage Precision Bass[/b] Navigators are high-end basses made by ESP Custom Shop Infos about Navigators here: [url="http://www.guitarsjapan.com/ESPinfopage.html"]http://www.guitarsja...SPinfopage.html[/url] This particular model is probably from the 80s (hard to tell, there's no serial number) and is very rare in Europe (I imported it from Japan) Great quality, hand-crafted bass, very light (3,9kg) and resonant. Just received a fret job by a professional luthier and plays really great with low action. Everything original except: I replaced all the potentiometers with new CTS ones, new input socket too. (I still have the original parts) At the moment it comes with Gotoh Res-o-lite tuners, very light. Upon request I could put the original tuners back on (which would be reflected in a lower price). Not sure whether the pickguard is original. Good condition except a for few nicks. The holes for a (potential) bridge cover were made by the previous owner, not very nicely though in my opinion. Little crack in the pickguard (see pictures).

PS: It comes with the standard silver knobs, not the black ones pictured in some of the photos [url="http://s760.photobucket.com/user/paddypatel/media/Navigator%20P/af46d.jpeg.html"][/url] [url="http://s760.photobucket.com/user/paddypatel/media/Navigator%20P/af46e.jpeg.html"][/url] [url="http://s760.photobucket.com/user/paddypatel/media/Navigator%20P/af46f.jpeg.html"][/url] [url="http://s760.photobucket.com/user/paddypatel/media/Navigator%20P/IMG_8416.jpg.html"][/url] [url="http://s760.photobucket.com/user/paddypatel/media/Navigator%20P/IMG_8385.jpg.html"][/url] Edited May 1, 2015 by patpatel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
