Reality bites (Overwater 6 string content) £1300

[Owen]

This is going back to Overwater for a new nut and a setup. I am trying again! The reason I was giving up was that it was not setup properly. I live in a setup WASTELAND. I had paid someone to do it locally but it was not a happy bunny. I cannot give up so easily. I dissapoint myself on occasion with my lameness. 

 

This is my second try with the bottom F#. The 6th string just throws me off balance. I want to make it happen but reality bites. I am not going to manage it. It is strung with a new set of Newtone strings. F# up to G. If you want to go up to C I will discount the cost of a new C string from Mr Newtone.

I have no idea when this was built but it must be on the older side. It is 36" scale and very red. The full instrument pictures look a bit Donald Trump, but do not be fooled. It is proper red.  The original preamp has been replaced with an East. No idea when or why, but it does that East thing very nicely thank you.

This is a substantial piece of wood and does what substantial pieces of wood do. It sounds substantial. It also weighs quite a bit more than a chambered Super Jazz. Be under no false impression that it is filled with helium. 

Do I wish I could make it work? Yes. Can I? No. As I said, reality bites. 

Before anyone asks it would be GREAT for metal. 

Price includes fully insured shipping in a mature Yamaha HSC. I do not need to sell it. The price is firm. I am not interested in trades, but thanks for thinking about it.

Don't do it Owen... you know you'll regret it ... if it's anything near as good as your previous one that you sold me it's a GREAT instrument. Still lovin' it. Yep, heavy, but just a sublime sound top to bottom. GLWTS!

Thanks, it is a great instrument but I have met my match :(
