Sign in to disble this ad
This is a Victor Broden custom tele. Made by:Cal Custom guitars. It has the line 6 neck hum-bucker, the nordstrad pbass pickups in the middle and the fat bridge hum-bucker.
Its an all passive bass with single coil/ double coil switches for the hum-buckers and an on and off switch for all three. Also has a tone and volume control for each pickup.
You can make this bass sound deep and fat or make it sound like a rockin pbass. The most versatile bass I have ever owned!!! Not to mention the sick paint job!
For those of you who have been on talk bass for awhile, you have seen this bass before only this time there is no naked lady spray painted on the back. I had it painted over and done right. You can't even tell. And I'm throwing in the gator hardshell case and strap locks!
This bass starts at $799 shipped!!!
According to trades, something vintage, fender custom shop or sadowsky.

|  | Registered User | | Join Date: Jun 2008 Location: Durant, Oklahoma | | | Yes they really do work. Which makes this bass extremely versatile. I will say there is a slight hum when either of the humbuckers are switched to single coil, but unnoticable while actually playing the bass.
