Morning/Afternoon,

 

This is strictly a feeler at the moment, and is only on the chopping block as I need to raise some funds. 

 

This is an absolutely magic little Bass, it's a mere 23.5" scale but it plays and sounds like a full sized Bass, I've used this at practice and at a gig and it sounds absolutely massive, everyone was just astounded by what this little thing can do! 

 

If you don't know about Bee Basses, then let me tell you they are ridiculously good. Binky, my infamous 10 string bass, is a Bee Bass and I commissioned that 16 or so years ago after having talked with some very well know bassists about who can build the bass I had in my head, and Fred Bolton of Bee Basses delivered in spades and Binky was born!

 

This little dude is built by the same man that built Binky, and albeit much MUCH smaller than Binky, it still has the same outstanding build quality and playability that Binky has. 

 

I believe the body is Ash with a flamed walnut top with matching headstock cap, a lightly flamed maple fretboard and maple neck. It's a single passive pickup with tone and volume. 

 

The neck attachment is a 6 bolt design with metal ferrules and metal threads in the neck and was built to be designed for the neck to be removed regularly for backpack travel. The action is very low and the strings are custom Newtone strings. 

 

It's a marvellous Bass, a truly huge sound in a tiny package. A full custom build in micro form that delivers everything a bass should while being super light and very portable.

 

Ideally collection from Wickford, Essex, but I can probably post if needed!
