Luthier made Bass On Hold Pending - *SOLD* £975 N Ireland

[briansbrew]

Here we have a bass that I got made by a brilliant Luthier who lives not too far from me, he has set up his workshop

as Tot Guitars and has many years experience building electric and acoustic guitars

I supplied all the hardware and he made and finished the bass

The pickups are genuine ones I bought off a fellow basschatter

Schaller NOS machine heads , strap locks fitted

Love the inlays

All the rest from I bought from a reputable seller of these type of hardware

Brass nut @ 42mm, action is set at a comfortable 2mm for this type of instrument

Weight is 3.8 Kg's

Scale length 33 1/4

Single input, 2 way single truss rod

Finished in a Candy apple red

Sounds and plays like this instrument should if you follow my drift

Was made about 8 months ago and only used at home so never out or gigged, still in lovely condition

I have owned 2 HW ones and this is definately on a par build and finish wise

Selling as he is now building me a short scale version of thsi one

Some pics showing the bass in progress

Will be send in a generic hard case, postage included in price

The new owner will not be dissapoints in this bass, I will even take it back if not satisified

New pics of the headstock will be added tomorrow
