SICbass Posted 5 hours ago Posted 5 hours ago (edited) This looks interesting. A C.G. Winner from the 80s. Anyone familiar with these? I’m not about to buy it, but I am intrigued. A wonderful longscale bass, made in the 80s in the legendary Japanese Matsumoku factory. The walnut body has the classic precision shape, but a continuous maple neck. In addition, string-through for even more sustain. The rare Firepower Blade pickups provide powerful sound. Side rider and groove are made of brass. Everything is original and works flawlessly, the neck is straight, the string position is low, the strings have hardly been used. The bass weighs 4.3 kg and was discontinued some time ago at Berlin Guitars. I had glued the cracks of the attached body parts with a special glue. However, this glue was very thin, so there are a few traces. In addition, small things and dongs. From a distance, however, a very impressive bass. Complete with lightly padded vintage carrying case. Glad to test and pick up in Berlin-Mitte. The goods are sold under exclusion of any warranty. https://www.kleinanzeigen.de/s-anzeige/c-g-winner-bass-vintage-precision-syle-80er-matsumoku-japan/3084532179-74-9668?utm_source=copylink&utm_campaign=socialbuttons&utm_content=app_ios&utm_medium=social Edited 5 hours ago by SICbass Quote
Pea Turgh Posted 5 hours ago Posted 5 hours ago Saw something very similar about a year ago. Some kid leaving the local rehearsal studio was carrying one. Had a chat, picked it up (heavy). Action was too high to play and someone had cut in to the back of the neck - assuming to do with the truss rod nut. That example you linked looks in much better condition! 1 Quote
