scrumpymike Posted December 1, 2016 Share Posted December 1, 2016 (edited) This is a mint/unmarked example of a really nice s-s bass. I had it set up by my local luthier with my preferred D'Addario EXL220S strings and the price is delivered UK and includes the excellent gig-bag that came with my Maruszczyk Cazpar (that now has a hard case and the bag's a perfect fit for the Talman). Here's the spec: Construction: Mahogany with rosewood fretboard (radius = 9.5") Scale length: 30" with 20 medium frets Weight: 3.3kg / 7.3lbs Neck width at nut: 41mm / 1.6" Pups: Dynamix P (neck), Dynamix J (bridge) Reason for sale? Too much stuff coming in!! Edited December 9, 2016 by scrumpymike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
solo4652 Posted December 1, 2016 Share Posted December 1, 2016 Free bump on me Mike! I have one of these and it's now my No. 1 bass. Unbelievable value for money, and so easy on the neck and shoulders. This bass has enabled me to continue playing when it looked for a while that I might have to stop. The P/J arrangement gives a wide tone range. In my opinion, the P pickup is particularly impressive with lots of mid-range clarity if you want it, that means you're not stuck with muddy-thuddiness. Mix-in the bridge pickup for bark and bite. Stock bridge, tuners, pickups are all sound and secure. Lightweight mahogany body balances nicely if you have a wide strap with a rough underside, and that meant I could discard my waist belt that supports my other basses via a lower-bout strap pin. I'll shut up now. Sorry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scrumpymike Posted December 1, 2016 Author Share Posted December 1, 2016 Don't apologise solo - you're absolutely right! My body's suffered from 5 decades of bass-playing wear and tear too. Over the past couple of years I've tried pretty much every s-s bass I could get my hands on - and seem to have ended up buying most of them! So now it's time to get back down to the 3 or 4 basses that best suit my needs (I've already sold a Gibson SG, a Les Paul DC, a Hofner Club and a fretles Scott Whitley SWB-1). This one plays/sounds virtually as good as the more expensive stuff I'm keeping! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
