SOLD    
This is a well crafted North American- Canadian built bass. Like new. In excellent condition. I would characterize the tone as aggressive, although there’s plenty of thump available through the different pickup configurations. The neck has a vintage Fender “C” shape with a 1.5" nut width and is satin finished in a mild gun oil tint. The body is finished in a well done transparent blonde which lets the wood grain bleed through. String loading is through the body or the bridge. The oversized single coil pickups are growly and produce a pretty hot output for a passive bass. The controls are volume, tone (push/pull pot), 5 position pickup selector switch.
Pickup selector switch configuration:
position 1 (with tone pot pulled) = neck alone
position 1 (with tone pot in) = neck & middle
position 2 = neck & bridge
position 3 = middle alone
position 4 = middle & bridge
position 5 = bridge alone
She ships in a high quality,heavy duty Godin gigbag. $650 shipped in the lower 48 states.

| | | | Is it 34" scale? The body looks Mustang-ish... |

| | Registered User | | Join Date: Feb 2000 Location: Newport News, Virginia | | | Yes. It's a full 34' scale neck. I'd describe the body as a basic P shape with a slightly shorter upper horn.
