MALLIA CUSTOM 6 STRING BASS GUITAR
Mallia bass, which would normally retail at around $6000+ US dollars new (in the USA)
is now up for sale for AUD$4200 http://www.colorwiz.com.au/bass/1.jpg
Sadly, I have decided to sell my beloved custom 6 string bass guitar! Yep that's right, an original custom Mallia 6-string bass.
Its been sitting around here doing nothing for many years and it's time to sell.
This bass has many fond memories, gigging around the Sydney club circuit. But for many years now, its been sitting alone and in desperate need of some tender loving playing!
I have recently stringed up a new set of Ernie Ball strings, so for those seriously interested, bring your amp and test it out!
There are some marks on the top of the body and on the back - just natural wear and tear from playing! But other than that, its an incredible working instrument.
This piece of craftsmanship was custom built for me by Jeff Mallia over 18 years ago.
Jeff Mallia is an amazing bass guitar builder and well know around the industry for repairs and technical support. Based in Sydney Australia, as I am, Im sure Jeff would be more than happy to answer any questions relating to this bass that I am selling, he built it.
Jeff produces bass guitars for many pros around the world and his basses are his love and his attention to minute detail is remarkable.
