FS: Big Al by Musicman

Sign in to disble this ad
My other thread wasn't generating much interest, so I decided to shuffle a few things around in hopes of moving something out of here.

This is a Musicman Big Al in excellent condition. 4-string SSS configuration. Very cool bass and it's comfortable to boot!

The one issue that it does have is that the active/passive switch sticks a bit on the pickguard. It doesn't seem to be a problem with the switch itself, I think that the pickguard just needs adjusted a bit or the hole needs routed out a little. It hasn't been that big of a deal for me, so I just haven't done anything about it.

Currently set up with relatively new 40-100 DR Sunbeams.

Weight = 9 lbs. 10 oz.

If you need more pics, I can get some with my cell phone, but the camera is out of town at the moment.

Will ship in the OHSC which is also in excellent condition.

$1150 Price drop! $1050 shipped in the US. Paypal only.

Bump

Also a quick note to let you know that I will not be able to ship anything from 07/15/10 - 07/25/2010. If you don't move quickly, you'll have to wait a little longer to play your new bass!

Thanks to another TB member, I have discovered that this bass was born on 4/29/09 and it has an alder body. Thought this might be useful to someone!

Actually, this is exclusive to TB at the moment. Thanks for the head's up, I didn't think about it.

As for the Bongo, I've just never been able to get comfortable on a 5. Thanks for the offer though!

Yeah, this thing is the shiznit. I assume you can turn off middle p.u. and get a Jazz with its butt on fire tone.

I own two SUBs, one with a custom sparkle finish. Two for one trade?

Yep, each pickup has its own button so you can use any combo of pickups you want.

Very, very tempting...but I'm really trying to reduce my number instead of increasing. Thanks for the offer and I'll keep it in mind!

Bump for an awesome bass. I'm falling deeper and deeper in love with mine every gig. Has a super comfortable Sterling neck, can be sweet and laid back, or aggressive as a mofo. One of our forum members caught me at a show this past weekend and said, "Damn! That bass sounds like, and I'll quote, "a 70's Fender Jazz with a blow torch up its arse". Looks wicked cool too.

The Big Al is one of the funkiest basses I have ever played. And versatility is it's middle name.

It really is a great bass. I just picked up a Sterling (same awesome neck) and something has to go. The only reason this one is up here is because I need to clear one out and I figured this one would generate the most interest. This will definitely make someone happy!
