FS only: Washburn Taurus T-25: neck-thru 5er

SOLD

FS is my prior main gigging bass, a Washburn Taurus T-25. Five strings, neck-through, passive jazz pickups, nice growl to it. 24-fret neck with easy access to the high frets. Natural mahogany satin finish, feels really nice. All stock except I put a set of Loxx straplocks on it, which I can include or put the regular strap buttons back on if you prefer. Heck, I'll even throw in the strap. Comes with a gig bag, will ship well-boxed.

The body of this bass has a nice compact feel to it, very comfy and playable. BP gave it an Editor's Choice award back when it came out.

The only thing I ever had doubts about with this bass was purely a personal preference thing; I decided I was a little more comfortable with a more tightly-radiused fretboard (I believe this one is 14"). That's just me. It plays great and looks great on stage. There is a small ding on the headstock and a light 1" finish scratch near the jack, neither shows on stage.

No trades please: I'm only selling it because I bought a custom bass from John Toon and need to replenish funds.

$350 shipped.

I have a friend who had the 4-string version of this. Great little bass, with a nice growl to it.

It would make a nice project bass with an electronics upgrade, I suspect.

Could you measure both pickups? Overall length, and distance between the screw holes, both pickups.

Also, the string spacing at the bridge, centre to centre...

Happy to -

The pickups are each 4" x 3/4" (102 mm x 18 mm). Screw holes are standard jazz arrangement, two each front and back of each pickup (not at the ends). They are spaced 1 3/4" from each other side-to-side (46 mm) and 1" front to back (25 mm). That's with a household ruler, don't own a pair of calipers. Basically, I'm pretty sure they're standard five-string jazz dimensions.

String spacing at the bridge is pretty tight - I measured it at 5/8" (16 mm) center-to-center.

Let me know if you have any more questions. Thanks!

EDIT: by the way, in case people are curious, bathroom scale is giving a weight of 9 lbs.

hmmm ... interesting. I'd been aiming for a straight sale, though. Let me think about it a bit.
