Hi,

Up for sale here is my rather stunning Shuker custom built 6 string bass, as some of you may have seen, this was on eBay last week and 'sold' for £675 with the bidder then cancelling the sale, as such I'm going to list it here for the non-negotiable price of £695 which includes free postage with the UK or a £25 contribution to any other postage (EU, USA etc.)

In my opinion, £695 with free postage is silly money for this bass... Only listing it at this price as it'd be unfair to ask for more as I would have let it go on eBay as per the final sale price.

This things is an amazing bass, it has dual EMG soapbar pickups which provide a vast array of tones from hi-fi clarity to deep bassy lows. I believe the pre-amp is a Seymour Duncan 3 band, it has Volume, blend, bass, mid, treble controls and works beautifully with the EMG pickups.

The tuners are Gotoh reso-lite tuners and the bridge pieces are individual hipshot mono-rail bridges. Scale length: 34" String spacing: 18mm Weight: 4.5kg Both the top wood and back wood are AAAA quilt maple, it has a beautiful 3D effect and is about as good as you can get from quilt maple!

The body core is mahogany and with 5 laminate neck (maple, wenge, flame maple, wenge, maple). The fretboard is a beautiful piece of birdseye maple and plays as good as it looks. The overall construction is absolutely impeccable, the bass has very few marks on it anywhere, there is one light scratch on the upper bout, but besides that it's almost mint. To custom order a bass like this now would set you back over £3000, so I'm sure someone will get an incredible deal here.

I'm only selling to fund another custom 6 string bass. The bass with come with the original Shuker/Hiscocks hard case and it has been freshly re-strung so it's ready to rock! I'm happy to ship the bass, however this will be uninsured as I cant find any couriers that insure instruments, but as it has the hard case it should be safe enough! Please do note if I ship this, this is on the understanding that the buyer assumes all responsibility once I've dropped it at the post office, unless you can tell me a courier I can insure with! (May ask for a small postage contribution if it's a particularly expensive courier)

Collection is more than welcome (I'll knock £25 off the price for collection). I'm based in Basildon, in Essex and you're welcome to come view it before hand. If you have any questions, please do ask!

Can post more pictures if needed, just let me know!
