VIEW FULL LIVE VERSION : Crazy, I know... F BASS BN6 .. GORGEOUS!
adrian garcia 07-18-2007, 02:55 PM Man, this is going to suck. I just got this beautiful F Bass BN6 from AJ Brown and it is just smokin' - just beautiful to look at and plays better than ANY other 6 I have encountered. Just a work of art and sounds amazing.
I just had a set of Nordstrand Big Splits installed which were expensive but fantastic sounding pups. They take care of any lo gain output problems you may have heard about F basses. The bass is wired to Master Vol / Pan now. I spent a few hundreds on these mods. I still have the original F Bass pickups. Bass is in very good condition and includes a like new gig bag. Reason for selling is I still feel better on a five and to be frank, I need the funds, so let the wise comments commence but this one is as of right now up for sale for $2900. I am losing $ from what I bought it for couple of weeks ago AND put a few hundred in as well.
So, unfortunately, $2900 plus shipping makes it yours. No Paypal , please.

... before I change my mind....
T-MOST 07-18-2007, 03:45 PM What a beauty!! Too bad you have to sell.
jacochops 07-18-2007, 03:45 PM Hey Adrian,
Bummer that bass didn't work out...just a GORGEOUS bass!
Hope you're well, brother, and I hope you sell it quickly!
emjazz 07-18-2007, 04:46 PM I imagine the addition of the Big Singles to this bass to be a wonderful improvement. This'll make someone VERY happy indeed.
XavidmanX 07-18-2007, 05:18 PM You torture me!!
BSR6P-Bob 07-18-2007, 05:31 PM No criticism.......Just WOW!!
Freddy-G. 07-18-2007, 06:45 PM If I was a die-hard 6 stringer, this'd be THE ONE!
adrian garcia 07-18-2007, 10:58 PM correction - the Nordstrand pickups on this bass are Big Splits, not Big Singles- i cannot keep up with Carey's pickup names. All I know is they sound good!
west*coast*bass 07-18-2007, 11:45 PM Man alive, this is one gorgeous bass...easily one of the nicest 6's around.
Good luck with the sale brother!!
AJ Brown 07-19-2007, 01:30 AM I'm deeply saddened that you have to let this go Adrian, yet I understand entirely. I wish I had the funds to buy it back, especially with the Nordy's in it now. Someone will get a phenomenal bass here.
Alistair R 07-19-2007, 03:29 AM One of my favourite basses on here...Sucks you had to sell AJ and sucks you have to move it on as well, Adrian! Simply amazing bass.
vAns-826- 07-19-2007, 06:06 AM WOW...Fbass with nordies big splits??!!:bassist: :bassist:
any soundclips before you sell it?? plizzzz....
lamarjones 07-19-2007, 09:14 AM honestly, a clip would be great as well, I am EXTREMELEY curious!
not to mention I dig your playing....
adrian garcia 07-19-2007, 09:18 AM come on, guys! i don't have time for a clip! i need to sell this guy ...
sounds real good, though ... ;)
i just need a good, fat, punchy, inexpensive 5 to go with my Nordy. Leo, I should have never let that white Fender go... you shouldn't have either! :D er, i mean...:scowl:
adrian garcia 07-21-2007, 12:35 AM Bump for a wonderful bass. I wish I could afford to just keep this around, it is an amazing bass.
adrian garcia 07-21-2007, 08:49 PM Taking her on a couple of gigs tonight- if I manage to handle the 6 strings without killing myself, I will pull this off the market and keep it- it is that killer...
adrian garcia 07-22-2007, 03:20 PM ahh, the bass kills! it's the bassist getting lost on 6 strings that is the problem.
Anyways...
I have gotten a number of pm's offering partial trades. There are a couple of things I am willing to entertain since I will have to buy another bass anyways- so trades I would consider are
1. F Bass bn5 plus $1400
2. Fender American Dlx 5 plus $2000
3. Lakland 55-02 plus $2000
4. Mike Lull MV5 plus $1400
Basses I am interested in would be Ash bodied and Maple board five strings. Thanks for looking again!
