FS/FT: Maruszczyk Elwood 5a – Charcoal Metallic Sparkle – Aguilar/Delano – £1000 – Glasgow / UK Shipping £1000 Glasgow

[steviedee]

I've realised other than a bit of dabbling I'm not really a man for the fivers! So I can't have this hanging about doing nothing. Really superb condition with a couple of marks I've highlighted. I'm looking for a sale or a trade with a Precision style bass with a thinnish or normal neck. I have the custom/Vintera and love it but not sure if I'm getting on with the thick neck,

 

Here is a bit of blurb

 

Built in 2020, lovely custom Maruszczyk Elwood 5a is a fantastic player with a huge range of tones from the Aguilar AG5J-HC hum-cancelling pickups and Delano Sonar 2-band preamp.
If you know Maruszczyk, you’ll know these are exceptional instruments — German-designed, handmade in Poland.

Prefer collection from Glasgow, but can ship within the UK at the buyer’s expense (securely packed and fully insured).

Would also consider trades or part-exchanges for a Precision-style bass — ideally with a thinner neck than my current P!
Particularly interested in:

USA or MIJ Fender Precision

MIM Nate Mendel Precision

Maruszczyk or Limelight P-basses
Open to other quality P-style options too — so what have you got!
