Sign in to disble this ad
After spending a couple of weeks with a new bass build, I have decided to sell my 1994 Modulus Q5. I will not be able to complete any transactions until after 8/16, but wanted to post to see if there was any interest.
figured walnut top
Honduran mahogany back with a purpleheart / maple / purpleheart center strip
modifications include:
EMG40CS pickups, EMG BTS system, 18v (originally 40P's)
ABM bridge (originally Schaller)
Hipshot ultralite tuners
ebony knobs
This bass, originally a custom order, is in excellent condition and I have been its sole owner. Over the years, I made a few changes to suit my tastes/needs . It is a versatile bass that speaks with a slightly darker character than other moduli- It sits nicely in the mix, but with a little less top-end sizzle. Currently strung with a fresh set of EXL170-5SL's.
$1400 shipped to the lower 48
no trades, tomato plants not included
paypal preferred
Thanks for looking!

Wow, that's nice. No truss rod correct? How is the neck? Beautiful bass, they are great players. Good luck with the sale.

The original bridge and tuners are not available, but I consider the Hipshot Ultralites and ABM bridge to be upgrades, IMO. The weight of a set of 5 ultralights= 4 of the Modulus /Gotohs. |

I just received my Q5 TBX back from the shop for a little fret/FB work. I have a few really nice basses, but nothing plays like a Modulus. You can dig in with very low action, super fast. Someone will get a great deal here........

It is priced to move 'cuz I want me some new Bergantinos!!!
+1 on the B string. The pitch is so clear, you can hear the "swing of the string".
peace,
