1986 Vigier Passion II £1500 London

[Nim]

Hello,

 

I bought this beauty a around 3 years ago from 'Bass Bros' https://bassbros.co.uk/sold-basses/1986-vigier-passion/

I loved it so much I had to buy an old  Vigier Arpege, It's been two years I haven't played it, hence the sale.

It does needs a new set of strings and a setup. 

 

I'm asking the same price I paid for.

The description and the professional photos are from 'Bass Bros'

 

A beautiful, very early Vigier Passion bass. This is serial number 036, with the rare full graphite neck appose to the 10/90 necks they used after this. Truly this bass needs to be played to be appreciated, it plays itself and has that punchy, bright tone you’d expect from a Vigier. There are some dings and cracks in the lacquer, as photographed, throughout the body. These are not structural and are just in the finish. Nothing major or that affects the working of the bass.
