Incredible playing comfort, terrific sound and dynamics and superbly manufactured, a bass I heartily recommend if you are looking for a high end 5 strings (not my business anymore so I'm back to the classic 4 strings). European craftmanship at its best.
Truly well balanced and extremely comfortable to carry, it is very light as well. It has a beautiful punchy, fat, round and sustaining sound that can be tweaked quite a lot. Specially the bridge pickup is to die for.






I really can't think of anything this bass couldn't do. It's beautiful, extremely comfortable, and has a range of great sounds.

The bass is used but in good condition, has a few common hairlines in the nitro finish and some marks hard to photograph but is in overall good shape.
Frets are inmaculate and the setup is perfect with a nice comfortable low action, absolutely no issues of any kind.
Comes with fresh Ken Smith Compressor strings, adjusting tools and a brand new deluxe harcase made specifically for this bass.

Thank you Richard, it's a superbly manufactured and sounding bass but I will not longer play fivers so open to trades or a straight sale.

[Doddy]

Ooohhhh. You don't see many of these on the second hand market.

I remember seeing Paul Jackson playing a Neuser Cloudburst (I think)

[jsixties]

Exactly Doddy, Paul Jackson plays a Cloudburst and two Courage.
These basses are absolutely perfect, hope any 5 strings player take advantage of this piece.
Is for sale/trade in talkbass too but my aim is complete the transaction in Europe:
