FS: Rob Allen MB-2, US Masters EP-42, Nordy vP4, Mike Lull P4

Sign in to disble this ad
All prices include shipping in the 48 states only. I'll ship elsewhere but you pay the extra.

The ONLY trades I'm interested in are:
-Mike Lull P4 with P width neck, brazilian rosewood fingerboard only
-17th Street 5 string or 4 string
-LowEnd LEP4 with P width neck, rosewood board
-G&L L-2000, with 6 bolt neck and mahogany body only, 9.5 lbs or less


First is a super nice fretted MB-2 from Rob Allen. This was built last year, the body is alder, the top is a very nice piece of walnut with tort binding. The fretted neck is walnut with a beautiful Indian Rosewood fingerboard. This bass is pretty much new and plays beautifully. Weight is light at 5.5 lbs, balances perfectly and sounds very full. Comes in the Rob Allen gigbag. The alder body has a small knot on the side, came from Rob that way. The pic at the bottom shows the knot, you can’t feel it. Currently wearing TI Acousticores which sound amazing, I'll also include the original Labella nylon tapewounds.

Price is $1650 SOLD




Second is an older USA-made US Masters EP-42. The body is solid Australian Lacewood with an oil/wax finish. There's some finish wear on the front of the body near the pickups, it could easily be sanded out and refinished if you cared. The neck is figured birdseye maple with a rosewood fingerboard, Jazz width (1.5" wide). Pickups are the original custom Bill Lawrence humbuckers, great sounding pickups. Controls are original, vol/pan/tone with two tone filter switches, all passive with no battery. Controls could use some contact cleaner due some scratchiness when you turn the knobs. Comes in the nice original cream tolex hardcase, it has some wear but it's really solid and very nice. Weight is super nice at 8.6 lbs. The unique truss rod adjusting tool is included. The tuners are really great Sperzel locking, very easy to string up and never any chance of strings slipping.

Price is $400 shipped SOLD

What kind of bridge is on the EP-42? Is it original?

Also, do you have the hex socket truss rod wrench for the bass? (I'm assuming it has the truss rod nut with the outer hex profile, not the more typical truss rod nut that requires an allen wrench).
