FS/FT: Carvin XB76 WPF fretless, piezos, 35"

jim777 · #1 07-05-2011, 10:09 AM

I just bought this thinking it was a 34" LB76 bass, but it's the longer 35.25" XB76. It's a great bass, piezos and everything, but I'm not having much luck with the longer scale and the lack of fretlines (I generally stick to lined fretlesses but this was so pretty I went for it). Walnut body, alder accent and claro top. 5 piece maple /walnut neck, ebony board with very little wear. Carvin hard case that isn't perfect but definitely doesa the job.

Looking for $750 shipped in the US, or trades for 5 strings, lined fretless basses, etc. Would take a lesser bass and cash as well. I can take as many more pics as you might like to see, so feel free to ask. I'm only interested in 34" basses if fretless, thanks!

thanks

Man, that's a beautiful instrument. I loved looking at the pics on your other posts when you first bought it. Too bad it didn't work out.

It would be mine if it was a 5'er.

Good luck bump . . .

Thanks for the kind words

Any offers out there? I'd be open to a ton of stuff

Simply gorgeous. Are the dots on the note or between?

The dots are on the notes, where the fretlines would be if it had them

Found something I'd like to grab so I am dropping this to $800

End of month bump

Again to recap, this is a USA made 6 string unlined fretless, with 18v pre, piezos, claro walnut top and walnut body, 5 piece neck through for $800 bucks

I'll consider synths and other stuff as well if there's someone out there who'd like to have this

You have a PM...

jim777 · #12 08-03-2011, 01:24 PM

I'll put this at $750 for a few days before shipping it off to auction.

I know times are tough and all...but $750 for THIS bass?? THAT is an awesome deal. Fantastic ebony fingerboards on these guys too. I know lots of people who pay several hundred bucks just for an ebony upgrade fingerboard on their current basses! I must also say, having had a fretless Carvin lb76 six string at one point.. these really are amazing basses and mine was NOWHERE near as good as THIS one. I am jealous of whoever gets this. Seriously

Is this beauty still here??

jim777 · #17 08-11-2011, 03:21 PM

Yep, it's available and can ship tomorrow. Shipping to Romania though isn't included in the price, we'd need to discuss that.

PMs replied, still available. Would definitely consider a BB76 with soaps or singles
