So I couldn't pass up a Dargie Big Al 4SSS that came available last week and my other Big Al is my baby, so this is the one that has to go. Its a beautiful White Pearl finish. One of the more flexible single humbucker instruments around. It has the 4 band preamp from the Bongo and switches for active/passive and series/parallel. Its a great sounding bass and is just over 8.5lbs, so its a pleasure to play. Bass is in perfect condition and comes with a clear pickguard and a black pickguard. Will ship in the original case.
Can be yours shipped for $1100.
Might consider a trade+cash deal for an iPad2, Hollowbody of some sort...like a Jack Casady or Eastwood or Asian Hofner Club (no violin bass) or a P or J in a funky finish (love Burgundy Mist) would be cool too. Interested in Bergantino AE Series cabs as well.

I just purchased a Bongo from a fellow TBer. A Big Al is going to be next!
Good luck with your sale!

Good luck with your sale! | I like both configurations...Good chance I'll pick up a 5 string Sinlge H eventually. |

IMO, the most impressive standard preamp available today--4 band EQ, passive tone knob, series/parallel and the passive volume is the same level as the active flat volume. When you combine the options with your picking technique, you can get many different usable sounds.
They're good. They're really, really good.
