**SOLD** - 2013 Gibson Midtown Standard Semi-Acoustic - Cherry Red £1400

[jonpain]

Just really testing the waters here, I'm not desperate to sell but I could do with releasing some of the value from this as it just doesn't get the play it deserves.  I'm not interested in Trades but would discuss sensible offers..

I've had this bass since July 2014, but I'm pretty sure it's a 2013 model.  The Standard model didn't sell from very long, and neither did the Signature that replaced it (and messed with my OCD).

You just don't see the basses around.  Searching on this forum, there's been no mention of them at all for a couple of years.

It's in an "As New" state and has been played only a handful of times since I bought it from new in 2014.  The only changes to it are fitting a set of Dunlop Strap Locks.  It comes with the original Gibson fitted hard case, and I will probably even throw in the Gibson branded strap I bought to go along with it.

It's a flat top (not arched) and the body is Mahogany, and routed rather than separate laminated pieces.  The top is maple and the neck is glued in, which is pretty typical for Gibson I believe.

2 completely unique sounding Pickups, one full fat humbucker at the neck, and then a mini humbucker at the bridge for that 'classic' sound.  This bass has a really wide range of tone.

I'll take and upload some more pictures later in the week.

Pickup, and any trials from Ashford, Surrey (TW15) or happy to meet someone half way if required.

What is the weight of this bass please

 

[jonpain]

I haven't weight it myself yet, but I've found a post elsewhere that lists it at 8lb 13oz (4kg) which sounds about right.
