A feeler is what it is: I've received this bass, yet a lot has changed since it's order, and I'm not sure I should keep it.

everything is fine with the bass, the construction quality of the bass is AMAZING, jerzy does a fine instrument. For those insterested in venturing into the world of ERB, but afraid of the weight and size, he is YOUR man. this bass is light, small, and the neck is smooth and *fast*


Unfortunately I'm not feeling this type of sound, I went for Ebony scale, sounds very hi-fi with great headroom, But I'm more of a slapper, I miss the feel and more sweet high end of maple, so I want to go in that direction.

I'm open to trades for maple necked basses, must be 5 strings minimum, something like a Sadowsky would be sweet. I'm very curious about them.
But I'm open to offers, if you got a slap monster rotting inside a hardcase, let it come my way.

all cash sale would be 3300 Euros

the bass:


Etimoe body with slight curly figure (not noticeable with that lighting)
maple 3 piece neck with black accent stripes
Ebony macassar scale
Aguilar 3 band electronics with boost and cut + pup blend
tuned BEADGCF
jerzy JDX pickups with ebony covers.
stainless steel frets!!
hipshot ultralite tuners

How about a trade with an Alembic Essence 5?
The ultimate slap-bass with a maple neck and it's in new condition.

I'm doing only fingerstyle lately and I could do with some extra strings too.

thx for the interest! but doesn't make an itch, I'm not a fan of the Alembic looks. right now I'd go either with something "jazz on steroids" like, as in Sadowsky, Sandberg... or maybe a modern Roscoe, Skjold, or Dingwall.

the person around in the world that owns the infamous Elrick new jazz in orange maple top with maple board would probably win this deal :bassist:
