Fernandes Gravity 5x $350 Shipped

brattbugg@sbcgl · #1 07-02-2010, 09:13 PM

This is a Fernandes Gravity 5x. Ive updated the pickups to Duncan Basslines and added a 3 band active EQ. The controls are master volume, blend, mid, and a concentric pot for bass and treble. Condition is near mint. One little nick by the truss rod adjustment. The neck is straight, but its never been professionaly set-up. I have lightly sanded the back of the neck to remove some of the gloss. Frets are in exellent condition. Comes with a standard gigbag. $350 shipped in the continental USA. Paypal please.

One more. By the way, the reason I am selling this is because I have bought a Musicman Stingray.

To answer your question, I bought it new in 2007.

Do you still have the original pick-ups and pre-amp?

The bass was passive to begin with. I made it active. As far as the pickups go, I do not have them anymore, the Basslines are much better.

Sorry, but I have a 4 banger that never gets played. Im really all about the 5. However, did you ever consider stringing it with the bottom 4 of a 5 string set, BEAD. Works great.

I did it to a Squire Jazz. With a really skinny neck. I had to slightly open the slots on the nut a bit and adjust the truss rod, there is actually less tension than when strung normal. You cant really mess it up, give it a try...
