Oncancio Posted May 7, 2023 Share Posted May 7, 2023 (edited) Hi all, I am selling my Mensinger Cazpar 5 string, 32" scale, with the 5th string being a high C instead of a low B (EADGC). I am the second owner of this bass guitar. I bought it in June 2020 (after arriving in the UK) from Basschat user Embra, who got it directly from Adrian Kuban-Maruszczyk in September 2019. I always dreamed of a bass with this configuration, but I don't have time to play anymore, and I'll have to leave the UK in some time - so the bass has to go. The bass has never left my home and is in excellent condition, except for 3 tiny spots in the bridge (A string slot) where the chrome has peeled. I have highlighted those spots in the bridge picture. The bass guitar could also use a new set of strings. I am including the original Mensinger strap, Mensinger gig bag, and paperwork. Also, a couple of freebies which are the bass items I have left: A VOX Amplug 2, a small stand, and a tuning fork (last picture). The price is £1100 £1000 £900. I strongly prefer collection: I am located in Camden Town, London, but I am willing to meet halfway or to take a short train to meet if you want to try out the bass guitar. Please note that I do not own an amp (only kept the amplug, which is not great), so please consider this if you want to meet. I can arrange fully insured UPS shipping if collection is impossible (buyer pays postage). The specs are: Solid-body alder body with an eye poplar top wood. Body Finish: Matte Neck Construction: Bolt on Neck Wood: Hard Rock Maple (1-piece) Neck Finish: Matte Nut Width: 45mm Fingerboard Wood: Katalox Fingerboard Inlays: White Acrylic Dots Fingerboard Radius: Without Radius Headstock Type: Matching Headstock (Natural) Headstock Logo Mensinger 'White' Pickup Combination Split Coil/Single Coil Set; neck pup Haeussel PB 5 SPC, bridge pup Bridge Pickup Haeussel JB 5 HB Onboard preamp: Aguilar OBP-2 TK, active 2-band Hardware Color Chrome Bridge Spacing: 19mm Bridge Type: Standard Big Knobs Type: Dome-Style Tuner Type: Standard Y-Style String Type: Nickel (EADGC) Nylon Gigbag Medium Size tee-shirt (unworn!) Weight: 8lbs. Thanks! Edited July 3, 2023 by Oncancio Lowering Price 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bassdude BE Posted May 8, 2023 Share Posted May 8, 2023 (edited) Ooh, I'd love this! 😍 I used to own the 30" version of this and it was superb (although it was too short of a scale for me, so this would be perfect..) VAT would probably ruin it for me tho as I'm not in the UK, but someone should snap this up asap, these cazpar's are superb quality instruments and the neck profile is to die for!

TheGreek Posted May 26, 2023 Share Posted May 26, 2023 I looked through 10 pages of ads and couldn't find it. I had to go through my history to find it. Lovely bass. Wish I had some money to play with. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robiredale Posted June 19, 2023 Share Posted June 19, 2023 Hi - been watching this. Have you ever tried this guitar in standard BEADG tuning? See any reason why it wouldn't work? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, I never tried it nor did any research into it, so don’t take my word for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
