FS: St. Blues King Bass

Sign in to disble this ad
This is my last bass to sell, and it's a great bass for the money. The passive P/J pup setup delivers a true old school P bass sound plus the added benefit of adding a J pup into the mix. The neck profile (1-5/8" at the nut) feels like a Fender Classic 50's P bass. Weighs 9.0 lbs. on a digital bathroom scale, accurate within 0.5 lbs. This bass has been played and shows normal signs of wear. These sell new for around $900 I believe, and I'm looking for $375 shipped to CONUS, including a tolex hard case that's a little worn but good on the inside.

The link is to a Youtube video (not this particular bass) that gives an idea of how these basses sound. I think mine sounds even more like a vintage Fender P. St. Blues King Blues Bass - YouTube

No trades please.

I just found one for sale on ebay - new and discounted at $689 shipped. I'll drop my price on this used one, including hard case and shipping, to $375.

Thanks rojo412. When I saw this in a shop, I had heard of St. Blues and knew a little about them but had never seen or played one. I was really impressed - to the point it followed me home.

These are some of the best MIK instruments since the old Squier ProTones, but with higher-quality electronics and hardware.

Bump for a killer bass at a great price,
