Sign in to disble this ad
This bass is my number 2 bass and it thumps and grinds like no other. Made by a British Luthier (Alan Knight) and comprised of Fender parts.
Reliced sunburst body and reliced jazz width maple maple neck. I think this has the 62RI Pickups in it. Really light weight and I don't want to get rid of it but I need cash pronto!
Bass has a bogus late 50s neck plate and a fake pencil stamp in the neck pocket as well as a fake Fender decal. These were on it when I got the bass.
Pictures soon!
$750+shipping

I've owned a few relic'd basses before including Nash. This is one of the most realistic I've seen. My only quibble, is that from up close the bass side horn looks kinda fake to me.

He really focuses on the playability of his basses, much like Bill Nash (I own 3 Nashes). Alan has made basses for Slade and Florence & The Machine, among others. Here's a link to his Myspace page .... http://www.myspace.com/bigal024

| | Registered User | | Join Date: Dec 2007 Location: NY, NY | | | Thanks Mark. I like this bass more than I did my Nash and while it does sound really awesome (and it sorta matches the real wear and tear on my main Pbass) I have a crapload of P-basses and could rather use the money. I have a 67 P that sounds almost identical and I should be getting it back from repair soon.

Bump for Big Al!

This one just doesn't have sentimental value to me like some of my others. If this doesn't sell I won't be disappointed at all. I played it on Friday and had a blast.
