Moses Graphite Neck P Bass W/ Villex Pickup

Sign in to disble this ad
$500.00 plus shipping (does come with a gig bag...the bag is road worn FWIW)

This is a MIM P bass (the only original parts are the body and bridge) that I modded with a Moses Graphite Neck, Stewart Mac Tuners and a Villex P Bass Pickup. The neck feels more like a Jazz neck and is very fast. No dead spots, great sustain and harmonics really ring out. You don't have to ever worry about truss rod adjustments again with this bass. The fingerboard goes a little beyond (has two more frets) what the original board did, so reaching the last 2 frets is not so easy, but can be done. The Villex pickup is really amazing. It has very high output for a passive pickup and it has a sweepable mid range, so you can get that great p bass sound and also an array of others...very flexible. This bass has some dings and scratches (nothing major at all), but sounds great and feels great. It is neck heavy, so use a strap that doesn't slide on your shoulder.

I have a few Moses-necked basses and this truly is a deal!

I figure, since it has a few (and really just a few) cosmetic flaws that I will take quite a bit off what it is probably worth. This bass is definitely worth a few hundred more than I am selling it for. It's a chance for someone to get a truly great sounding bass at a great price. I just hope whoever gets it uses it a lot and really appreciates what a great bass it is.
