Josh Posted June 24, 2009 Share Posted June 24, 2009 (edited) This really is a great bass and the craftsmanship is fantastic, honestly in the flesh it could be passed off as a Sadowsky M24 with ease. The bass can easily nail the 3 main classic tones with ease whilst retaining it's own character, both recorded and live this bass delivers. [u]Pics:[/u] And here's one prior to being modified: [u]Specs:[/u] Alder body with a 1/4 inch figured maple cap. Maple neck 35" scale 24 fret maple fingerboard Figured maple Headstock. Bartolini usa CB soapbars. Abm bridge, 19mm spacing. Hipshot Ultralight tuners. Abs case included. The modification carried out by the previous owner Garbev was to have the active circuit removed and installed a new passive circuit which has helped to bring out the true character in this basses tone. Details can be provided on the exact mod if needed. Even though the bass has been gigged quite alot it still is in great condition besides the odd ding here and there, and it is exceedingly light for a 5 string Jazz. Further details on this bass and additional photos can be found at the Siggery website [url="http://www.siggeryguitars.co.uk/roadbass%205.htm"]here[/url]. Also to have one these built new now would cost between £1200-£1400. [u]Trade Bait:[/u] Lakland 44/55-02, JO 4/5, DJ 4/5. Warwick Thumb BO 4/5. Musicman Stingray 4/5, Sterling 4. Spector Euro 5, Rebop 4/5. Or try me with what you've got. I just fancy trying something different for a change. Cash would be added by me for all of the listed basses besides for a Rebop. [u]Sale Price:[/u] [b]£600 includes Hardcase and postage.[/b] Thanks guys, Josh. Edited August 1, 2009 by Josh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
