For sale: Benavente '51 5er.

[NickyBass]

Pre-eBay price drop......$1300 shippped until this weekend.


This is about 2 years old. It is still in fantastic shape. I really love this bass, but it isn't ideal for my current projects, so I am letting it go. It is about 10 lbs. Maple/ash. Benavente pickups and preamp. Sunburst/tort guard. 5 string.

Here is a pic that was sent to me during the construction:

There is plastic over the guard in this pic, it is actually brighter and shinier....



I would like to get $1500 shipped for it. I'm not really looking for trades at the moment.

[NickyBass]

I will try to take some more pics tonight.

Wow!

I've got a neck from one of these on my FrankenBass P/J 5. One of the easiest-playing basses I've ever owned.

Good luck with the sale!

trades?

[NickyBass]

At this point, I'm not sure if I would want to trade this one. I'm still torn about listing it. I would trade the Nordy though.

[NickyBass]

Bump.

[LowBSix]

Trade for a Nordy?
LOL!!!!!

It's like my pair of 51P's had a baby

If I at all had the cash to spare, I would so add that to my collection... it's be nice to have one with flats and the other with rounds.

[NickyBass]

Haha. Good stuff.

I want to keep this one---but it is on the heavy side. (about 10 lbs) otherwise, I would hang onto it.

[LowBSix]

Great Guy and TBer!!!
I'd love to have this one too!!!

[NickyBass]

Thanks LowB. This is still available.......

[NickyBass]

Snowy day bump.

[NickyBass]
