FS: ALLEVA~COPPOLO LG5 SOLD

Sign in to disble this ad
SOLD!

Alleva~Coppolo LG5... This Spectacular bass is an early 2005 (serial# B5 0025) This is one of the first few LG's produced, that helped put Jimmy on the map here in the NYC music scene and for good reason, these LG5's are just wonderfully crafted instruments period, and it plays and sounds just spectacular.

CAR, LG5, Aged-European Alder body, African rosewood fingerboard. A nice weight of 9.2 lbs, with a matching headstock,and all nitro body and neck, vintage tint on back of neck. The instrument is in great overall condition for its age, However there are a couple of very tiny bumps on the bottom edge of the bass, which keeps this beauty from being perfect, but still in very clean condition as shown in the photos below, click on link below for macro shots and other shots. Email mail or PM with any further questions, as I don't visit the FS forum much, so if you leave a post on the thread, I may not see it for a while...

LG5 CAR pictures by gn16 - Photobucket

If you really dig that fat, warm and funky Paul Turner tone, Then look no further man,,, this bass nails that Paul Turner tone FOR REAL!!!!

I am willing to let go of this spectacularly wonderful instrument for $ $3800.00 shipped.

Sorry no trades, and shipped in US only.

I reckon this bass would cost in the region of 5k now and a waiting period of 18 months! Also comes with the slightly smaller older bod which I love!!

I don't know the seller but I reckon this a good deal!

This one is pretty enough I'd love to grab it. I think 3 LG's is a bit excessive though (even for me!)
