[LZD56]

**SOLD** Reducing my collection, so no trades thanks. This is a gorgeous instrument and deserves to be played regularly.

Rob Allen Mouse 30 fretless short-scale (30") 4-string, built in 2014 and in absolutely immaculate, like-new condition.

Swamp Ash two-piece body with Eastern Walnut top.

Birdseye Maple neck with Goncalo Alves fingerboard and bridge.

Supplied with reinforced Rob Allen soft-case from new. Fitted with Labella 760N black nylon wrap flats.

From the Rob Allen website: -

The Mouse 30 packs all the fun of a short scale bass into a full professional quality instrument.  The lower string tension provided by the short scale has several benefits - easy playability, sweet upper register tones and fat blooming low end, not to mention the added nuance that comes naturally when playing this type of bass. The piezo pickup (mounted under the saddle in the bridge) is a vibration sensor that lets the wood speak, creating a cross between an upright and an electric bass.

Yep, looks good, feels good, sooo lightweight and sounds great with a delicate touch.

I shouldn't even ask this, but where are you located?

[LZD56]

Leamington Spa UK - I'm about a mile from the Bass Direct store in Warwick. Post code area begins CV31 2

I have a tecamp puma 1000 amp & a tks 1x12 cab if anyone wants to trial this bass or either of the other two for sale (Maruszczyk 32" scale Jake or the Overwater 33" scale Scott Devine Jazz).
