lownote Posted June 5, 2020 Share Posted June 5, 2020 (edited) Vintage V940 FL active unlined fretless bass. Great condition - although not new obviously so some small imprefections. Slight roundwound marks on fingerboard. Recently serviced by pro tech, nut slot depth dropped to .5mm. Machines work well and pots are good. Active bass, PJ Wilkinson pups. Currently strung with roundwounds but it comes with flat wounds too. £155 posted. Collection preferred for £140. I can send but lack box so you'll have to wait a while if you want it posted.

Nigel Sleaford Posted June 5, 2020 Share Posted June 5, 2020 Can I hijack your advert just to ask you about the Revelation fretless? They look so good for hardly any money. But how do they sound? Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lownote Posted June 5, 2020 Author Share Posted June 5, 2020 (edited) The Revelation IMHO is a, well, a Revelation. Costing less than £200 new, it's well made and plays great. It's not a small bass and it's an old fashioned baseball bat of a P neck. Alan Enwhistle pups thru a KiOgon loom are very powerful and 'peppery', plenty of presence and articulation in the note, even with flatwound strings. Or you could have a nice Vintage!

Nigel Sleaford Posted June 5, 2020 Share Posted June 5, 2020 Thanks for this. I’ve got a jazz bits a with JBXN pickups. Very hot, but very usable. A Kiogon loom as well. And I play an upright a bit, but it’s such a pain trying tohome record with a Double bass, hence the interest in fretless. I like the sound of the big neck as well. Time to take a chance I think. Thanks again, and GLWTS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
