maprie Posted September 4, 2019 Share Posted September 4, 2019 (edited) SOLD Selling a Bass Collection 5-string, made in Japan 1988. I believe it is an SB505. There is no indication of the model number anywhere on the bass, but I found some catalogue pages on Talkbass and here on Basschat that match it. Sen (Japanese Ash) body, 3-piece neck, brass nut, ebony fingerboard, Gotoh hardware (3D adjustable bridge), 2-band active electronics. Condition is pretty good, some buckle rash and small dents, but no large gouges (see pics). The nut is loose and is held in place by the strings, needs to be fixed eventually. The bass is located in Bielefeld, Germany. Collection preferred, but I'm willing to post within the EU, at buyer's expense. I'll put it into a padded gigbag for shipping.

pete.young Posted September 6, 2019 Share Posted September 6, 2019 Very nice. The P/J configuration on the 5 string is pretty rare. Have a free bump on me. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maprie Posted September 16, 2019 Author Share Posted September 16, 2019 (edited) Still available. I'd also trade this for a Yamaha TRB 5 II (with some extra money from my side). [edit: No longer interested in trades - found a TRB ] Edited September 29, 2019 by maprie no longer trading Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ead Posted September 22, 2019 Share Posted September 22, 2019 Please can you tell me what the string spacing at the bridge is and how heavy is the bass? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maprie Posted September 23, 2019 Author Share Posted September 23, 2019 The string spacing is 19-20mm at the bridge, the spacing can be adjusted on the bridge (see pics). The bass weighs ca. 3.8kg. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
