This used to be mine and can say that it’s a wonderful bass. 

Thanks for your kind words. It is indeed a wonderful bass. If I did not have the Warrior it would be staying. It plays and sounds so close to the Warrior it really shows what good value the Milan is. The Warrior retails at £6000.

Bump for a splendid Bass...

Thanks for the kind words. 

It is indeed a splendid bass. I'm really surprised it has not been sold at this crazy price. I now use a Warrior that cost around £5000 if ordered today and this Milan plays and sounds about 90% as good. If I didn't have the Warrior I would keep it. 

I'm not going to drop the price but would like to trade against any music or hifi gear.

Hi Spyder, 

What's the string spacing at the bridge and the nut width on this? 

Cheers, 

Tobie

String spacing is 18mm and I will have to check on the nut later today. 

Regards.

Sorry measured again and the spacing is around 17 18mm with a plastic ruler and the nut width is 49mm.

Also comes with a set of pre cut strings worth £25.00.

Cracking price. The market is super tough unless you happen to be selling the exact bass someone is looking for. Surely at under £600 this will sell... if it were a 6er I'd have bought it already. 

It is indeed a cracking bass. The bass cost me nearly £1000 because I put a new kent Armstrong active eq in and added coil tap switches along with many other smaller upgrades and hardware replacement changes. 

The market is very tough at the moment.
