lagartixas Posted November 27, 2015 Posted November 27, 2015 Hi, I am selling this unique bass, based on a 2012 Gibson SG Faded Bass (made in USA), modified by the french luthier Roger Daguet. I have made him change the original pickups by his own "Dagstar" pickups, a faithful handmade reproduction of the originals Hagstrom Bisonic pickups that Fred Hammon had already reproduced for the Darkstar pickups. More informations and sound about these pickups on this page : [url="http://www.daguetguitars.com/index.php?gratte=62&lang=en&PHPSESSID=b0ca74906ffd8139dd4424fb45646761"]http://www.daguetgui...d4424fb45646761[/url] The structure of the magnets in these pickups are truly unique, resulting in a very dynamic sound, natural and warm and with lots of clarity. The neck pickup is an humbucker and the bridge one is a single coil, resulting in differents sounds, that you can mix with the controls (two volume and a tone). The electronic has also been changed, with quality pots and wire. Finally, I asked Roger to make a bone nut instead of the original plastic one. I still have the original pickups, pots, wire and nut. Then the bass has been entirely set-up with new strings (D'addario nickel roundwound). The final result is outstanding, this is definitely not the same bass ! The sound of these pickups is incredible. I sell this one only because I have ordered a bass from Roger Daguet with the exact same pickups ! The bass is in Paris, France, it comes with the original Gibson hard case, and I can ship it in Europe with tracking and insurance. Here is my feedback : [url="http://basschat.co.uk/topic/180620-feedback-for-lagartixas/page__p__1718299__hl__lagartixas__fromsearch__1#entry1718299"]http://basschat.co.u..._1#entry1718299[/url] Cheers !

lagartixas Posted November 27, 2015 Author Posted November 27, 2015 Sorry, I am not interested in trades, I sell this bass to fund another photographic project.
The-Ox Posted November 27, 2015 Posted November 27, 2015 sweet Gibson!! Way too many nice basses on here haha
lagartixas Posted February 10, 2016 Author Posted February 10, 2016 This unique sounding Gibson SG, custom made is still on sale ! If you want that Darkstar pickup sound, this is the one !
lagartixas Posted March 8, 2016 Author Posted March 8, 2016 The bass is still available. @Cosmo Valdemar : Darkstars were a reproduction of the originals Hagstrom Bisonic pickups, as are the Dagstars of Roger Daguet. He began making these pickups because Darkstars were not available anymore.
RaNoFuNkY Posted March 9, 2016 Posted March 9, 2016 Looks great - good luck with the sale. Is this short scale?

It has Dagstars which have no connection to Fred Hammon's Darkstars. I just think you should alter the title as it's misleading as it is.
