ACG SLG 5 - 32" Scale £895 Margate

[jay-syncro]

 

ACG SLG 5 32" Scale up for grabs. This is a really interesting bass with a fantastic spec, John East preamp with passive tone control, ACG single coil pickups, acrylic impregnated maple fretboard, 3 piece maple neck, quilted maple top, black limba body, reverse headstock, Gotoh tuners, hipshot bridge. It plays and sounds great, I'm just not comfortable gigging a 5 string. Comes with a TGI Flightcase. 

 

Collection from Margate or I can box it up if you'd like to arrange your own courier. 

 

Here's a video of it in action 

 

 

Note the control cover still has the plastic on it.

Thank you.

[BassApprentice]

For under £2k you can pick up 2 ACG five strings on here right now.

 

Absolutely bonkers.

I don't really need a 3rd ACG... Doesn't mean I don't want one though!

I'll confirm the nut width this evening. 

String spacing is 18mm at the bridge. 

Weight is 4.3kg. 

 

👍

[Merton]

Nut width almost certainly 45mm I think

45mm it is 👍

[fretmeister]

Alas the weight is too much for me.

 

Ah well, at least I haven't risked divorce.

Wow! Not in the market now unfortunately but I'd snap this up if funds were available. Super interesting bass and great specs.

Thanks, it is a special bass. I'm surprised it's still here at this price. 

[jay-syncro]

A mad price for a bass of this calibre.

Alright! Lets keep in touch, might even have some stuff to trade for you if you want.

[jay-syncro]

Any offers on this before it goes on ebay? 

[Merton]

Cannot believe this is still here; such a good price for an incredible bass

[BassApprentice]

Agree - considering a MIM Fender P with some slight relicing now costs £1,400 this is wild. 

If hadn't just had a new addition to my family (not a bass) then I'd be buying this!

Yes that's quite mad! 

 

Congrats on the new addition to the family!

Alas being sensible and slimming the heard (for once!)

Need to get a few quid together for a car for my son soon, I forget he’s not a kid anymore 😱
