****I failed to make it to Bass Direct, so it’s back up for sale on here, for now***

 

I’ve gone a bit Geddy and passive too, and need to balance the books, so this beauty is up for sale. I bought it new from PMT about 18 months ago, and just after I bought it the price went up to about £2,400. It’s still there or thereabouts, if you can find one.
 

They found it had some minor lacquer cracks on the back, near the battery cavity and lower horn, so knocked £200 off, and I’m happy to pass that on. They’re barely noticeable to the eye, are hard to photograph, but can be felt, and didn’t bother me in the slightest. Anyways, that’s the full disclosure bit done, so here’s the (cribbed) details:

Amber stain gloss, quilt maple top with slice of walnut, rosewood board, 1.5” nut, MoP inlays, 3 piece maple neck, EMG active pickups, Tonepump preamp, gold hardware.

It weighs in at just under 4kilos, has an uber skinny neck as per Mr Wimbish’s spec, and is a joy to play.....and look at. Too nice for the places I gig for sure, hence no gigs, even before Boris said “No gigs”.

I can ship at your risk and expense, in a Hiscox hard case, but a socially distanced meet up and try out is feasible, when we’re permitted, or a half-way meet within reason too, again when permitted.

****May partial trade for a Mesa Subway head and/or Subway cabs****

Oh, my feedback is pretty darn good if you want to check.Time for the pretty pictures:

I've got one of these and have never regretted buying it. I'm a 5-string player but always find myself coming back to my DW Spector. They're great basses, the neck is superb and if you're a fan of Jazz Bass necks then this is even more ergonomic. Can't recommend these enough.
