Rumple Posted April 27, 2015 Share Posted April 27, 2015 (edited) I picked this up recently as part of a trade but in truth I'm not much of a fan of sunburst basses and prefer passive basses, I might use it as the basis for some modding as I like the idea of the rear routing and the neck looks and plays great but being sunburst I'd always feel the need to refinish it and I'm discovering I'm not so good at that It's in excellent condition, it's had a scratchplate added which I think help a lot with the aesthetics of the instrument, if I keep it I'd change it to a black one but that's just my personal preference. It's got a set of cheap and cheerful round wound strings on there at the mo' as the original owner kept the flats he uses. No case or gig bag included. £[s]160.00[/s] £150.00 Collected from SE London, if you REALLY wanted it posted I do have a standard coffin shaped (bass size) cardboard box I could pack the bass in but I'm not sure that's enough to protected it from the abuse couriers seem to give parcels, so you'd be responsible for organising a courier to collect it and the level of insurance you wanted. Possible Trades: Telecaster guitar. SR5 neck, block and bound Jazz neck, Zoom B1on, 5 string Jazz body, SD P or J Antiquity pickups or Hipshot Ultralite Clover tuners.

HowieBass Posted April 30, 2015 Share Posted April 30, 2015 These are great basses and despite being active, still have that essence of the classic Jazz sound (but on steroids). GLWTS! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

discreet Posted May 4, 2015 Share Posted May 4, 2015 (edited) I've owned this bass and at this price it's a total no-brainer. The Ebonol board is a joy and the neck is dead straight, plays beautifully. It's possible to get the action very low, if you like that kind of thing. The 3-band circuit is very useful too, sounds great. Could easily be your go-to bass, no problem. Edited May 4, 2015 by discreet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
