DavidMcKay Posted February 24, 2016 Share Posted February 24, 2016 (edited) SOLD Just bought from koval123 but my car MOT forces a sale. To be honest I'd rather flog the car than this bass but I think the current Mrs McKay would have something to say about that! [color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif]The bass is in good condition. It's been well looked after and properly maintained. [/font][/color][color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif]The neck is made of some dark exotic wood (most likely padauk) with rosewood fretboard, body is of maple with beautiful curly maple top on mahogany veneer. All this in satin wax finish[/font][/color][color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif]. [/font][/color] [color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif]Hardware-wise it sports Warwick 3D bridge, Warwick tuners, brass saddle and Schaller straplock pins. [/font][/color][color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif]Pickups are active MECs, three knobs controling vol-vol-tone[/font][/color][color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif]. [/font][/color] [color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif]Neck is nice and smooth with truss rod working as it should, jumbo frets have plenty of life left (minor signs of use). There are some small scratches and marks on the wood surface.[/font][/color] [color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif]The sound is warm and punchy, with lots of mids. [/font][/color][color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif]The weight of the guitar is about 4,5 kg (9,8 lb). [/font][/color][color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif]It comes with a nice padded gig-bag in very good condition.[/font][/color] [color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif]I had sent the guitar to Jon Shuker (at Shuker Bass) to change the fingerboard to fretless but I have had to cancel that work and the bass is on its way back to me.[/font][/color] [color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif]Jon had taken it apart in re[/font][/color][color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif]adiness for the work, but put it all back together so I guess you could say it has had a good setup![/font][/color] [attachment=213243:GMR01.jpg] [attachment=213242:GMR02.jpg] [attachment=213241:GMR03.jpg] [attachment=213240:GMR04.jpg] [attachment=213239:GMR05.jpg] Edited March 5, 2016 by DavidMcKay Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Twincam Posted February 24, 2016 Share Posted February 24, 2016 I don't normally comment on for sale posts but I will say that this looks a nice bit of quality for the price. Nice aesthetics I think too. Glwts Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
