FS - Valenti #6 Precision bass

FS (no trades)

This is an incredible bass (ask anyone that has ever played it). It was very popular at the 2008 Int'l GTG in NY. There are a few finish scratches but nothing major. I tried to get them to show in the photos but they didn't.

Alder Body
Birdseye Maple Neck/Fretboard
Aguilar OBP-1 preamp w/VTC
Nordstrand NP4
Tort. pickguard
Chrome Hardware
Gotoh Quick Release Bridge
HipShot HB-1 Tuning Gears
Contoured heel for easier access to the upper frets

There is a ding in the neck that was there when I purchased it (it was never explained how it got there) and I have photographed it to show. You cannot feel it when you're playing the bass and it doesn't affect the playability of the bass at all. There is a little ding in the headstock (probably from the same incident that causes the neck ding)
I will ship it in the case that came with the bass. I will try to get a photo of the case to add to this.

$1025 shipped via UPS to the lower 48. Paypal preferred.

Not even a Pbass player, but if it was a fiver; it'd be mine.

Nice axe. Next best thing to a real 65 P. Even more than a modern Fender imho.

Neck dimensions? And of course the ubiquitous weight question.

Thanks,

It has a jazz neck and the weight is a little over 9 1/2 on my trusty bathroom scale.

That birdseye on the head is incredible

The whole neck and fretboard are like that.

This was mine way back when and it is one heck of a P-Bass. Just a tone monster!

Here is my original "For Sale" thread: SOLD: Valenti P #6 (Go get some toast because the BUTTA is right here!)

It is an amazing bass.

I cannot believe this bass is still here?!? If I still played fours, I'd be all over it.

If you are looking for a great P bass, look no further -- this is a really great instrument!
