WoodyRATM Posted August 3, 2011 Report Share Posted August 3, 2011 From my ad on basschat. Note - I've owned this bass for about 1 month or so - Just not loving the 5stringness now! So these pictures are the previous owner - can be viewed and tested etc.Features the more favored 4/1 headstock, Montego Black/Gold Scratchplate combination with a lovely Maple neck. 34" ScaleThis bass has had the some what anemic original active electronics taken out and replaced with a John East J-retro Deluxe which gives you ultimate control over your bass. Features Active/passive switch, Bass, Treble, Extra bright push pull switch, Mid volume and Mid contour control, as well as a passive tone control! Maximum knobbage!http://east-uk.com/jretrodeluxe01.pdfComplementing the pre-amp is a set of Seymour Duncan Quarterpounders, lovely hot pickups with loads of grind that can be toned down to a nice full funk sound. All electronics have been FULLY shielded with copper tape. There is little to no background noise when the bass is plugged in. The bass has a lovely Low action which is happy to be adjusted. The Truss rod is working well 100%. There are playing marks on the body which are quite hard to show up under lights. You would have to look at it in the right light to see!"I would be looking for what I paid for this bass - 900. I'm based in Aberdeen.Not sure what i'd be looking for in a trade. http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=...l=Fender+deluxe is the original thread.

Spoonie Posted August 3, 2011 Report Share Posted August 3, 2011 Good job guys - bin those fives Nice looking bass tho and excellent spec! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WoodyRATM Posted August 3, 2011 Author Report Share Posted August 3, 2011 I should add that this does have a really nice low B - I just cant get my head and hands to do 5 strings again! It has a brilliant sound and is also really light (even more so since it is 5 strings.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
