Patrick Eggle Milan V - back up for sale! £450 Cardiff

[chaypup]

Really nice Patrick Eggle Milan V in a unique colour with upgraded pre amp. 

 

Only getting rid as I'm thinning the herd and my Maruszczyk gets all the attention now.

 

Good condition with just one dink on the top of the body and a smaller dent on the lower horn. Great hardware on this, is a lovely player and has been a useful back up bass for a while. 

 

Welcome to come try out in Cardiff.

Thats my old bass (The Bass Gallery sold it for me) which I had professionally sprayed with Vauxhall metallic lime green. If I hadn't just bought a new bass I'd have had it back

Out of interest; what was the original finish, and is it a full neck thru?  (the couple of these I’ve seen before I think were natural finish ash body / maple top).

and is it a full neck thru? The five retaining Bolts/screws are the clue.

It was a very boring natural finish, just ash I think. No maple top. 
It’s a bolt on neck

A local guitar shop/pa rental company had, back in the day, PRS and Mesa Boogie along with more affordable gear and then they got Eggle guitars in which they described and the UK’s PRS. 

Always been a fan and this is a delight. The colour would fit perfectly in my ‘Irish bar covers band’ even if it has two too many switches and control knobs for my usual plodding style.

I’ve used a Patrick Eggle Berlin guitar for years, which is excellent. This is a heck of a lot of bass for the money. Very tempted myself to get the pair. Bargain!

That green is all sorts of wrong. But, yet, all sorts of right!
