Rayman Posted September 27, 2009 Share Posted September 27, 2009 (edited) I said I'd never sell it for sentimental reasons, and for the fact that with all the upgrades I'd never get my money back, but because I'm keeping the Kinal, I still need some cash. Close up of the upgrades and the brass nut. You know what the rest looks like. Standard OLP Tony Levin in the more desirable quilt top. Upgrades; Nordstrand 5.2 pickup, John East 3 band EQ, beautiful brass nut (handmade), and a musicman battery box on the back. Mint condition except for two tiny holes on the back where the new battery box was fitted. This bass is now a truly amazing bass. I've spent over £400 on upgrades, the East EQ was £175 and the pup was £120, no expense spared. So the electrics are now the best of the best IMO, the bass plays and sounds stunning. What can I ask for it?? I'll never get the cash back on it, but it has to be worth £300 of anyone's money for the parts alone. Comes in a Ritter bag. If someone has a Japanese Fender Precision or Jazz to offer in a trade I'm interested. NOW SOLD. Edited October 5, 2009 by Rayman Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rayman Posted September 28, 2009 Author Share Posted September 28, 2009 PM replied to. Price dropped to £300, it has to be worth every penny of that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wotnwhy Posted September 28, 2009 Share Posted September 28, 2009 i have no precision of jazz.. or £300... gutted the tone from the passive, non signature models is fan-bloomin-tastis. i go weak at the knees thinking how good this must sound!

Rayman Posted September 28, 2009 Author Share Posted September 28, 2009 Thanks for that, yeah, it's as good a Stingray tone as you could want really, for a fraction of the price of a Musicman. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GreeneKing Posted September 29, 2009 Share Posted September 29, 2009 I've not met this one but from hearing Russ talk about it in glowing terms I know that this is a lot of bass for not a lot of money. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TRadford Posted September 30, 2009 Share Posted September 30, 2009 Dont suppose you can get any sound samples uploaded somewhere?? For some reason my mouse keeps falling on this thread and I find myself starring at the pictures..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rayman Posted September 30, 2009 Author Share Posted September 30, 2009 Sound samples.....god, I'm clueless about stuff like that, I'll consult my brother who might know what to do. Thanks for all the offers folks, but they're not quite what I need at the moment, although the EDB looks very interesting. I'm hoping for a simple Jazz or Precision, but cash is king right now I must admit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
