FS - Tune 4 string

Sign in to disble this ad
Here is one of the original, and rare, Tune basses - with whammy bar!!! Maple body with 34" scale maple/walnut 5 piece neck. Bubinga top and back. Has the Convertible Action Tremolo System - basically, a bass tremolo. Tune pickups and pre (the bass will need a bit of work on the electronics, cleaned, pots tightened, etc...everything works though). Sperzel locking tuners, and comes with a funky leather strap with straplocks, quite a bit of player wear but overall a great bass. About 8.5lbs., ships in HSC.

$1500 shipped - Postal Money Order only. NO TRADES!!

Does this have the cover over the bridge? And is that tape on the bar? Was the bar broken? Are there any major flaws- large/deep dents or chips? Does this have the 18V preamp?

Lastly, have you ever owned a Kahler-equipped bass? How's the Tune trem compare to Kahler's?

Thanks

Dan

Hey Dan, there is no cover for the bridge and I have the original paperwork that came with the bass including pictures of the 4, 5 and 6 string and none of them have bridge covers in the pics.

The tape on the bar was just a little piece, forgot to take it off - the bar is fine and yes to the 18v original pre.

Never owned a Kahler equipped bass before so I cannot comment on the difference between the two tremolo's...

As for the mojo - there is some buckle rash on the back and a couple of decent scratches on the front. This can be brought back to showroom condition with a little tlc...

Bump for a kicka$$ bass (always wanted one of the Jap Tunes w/whammy) and an awesome TB'er.

WoW ... you've been pulling out some sweet basses!
It's nice to see some original TUNE basses hitting the boards.

(You wouldn't happen to have a Garz 5 fretless hiding somewhere? )

Good luck with the sale!

BUMP for Whammy!

Dang, look at that upper horn! THAT'll keep those pesky guitards and singers out of your personal space!

It's a cool look, though. Proof that you can get "outside" the traditional Fender look without getting all stoopid about it.
