Trade Feeler - Rob Allen Deep 5 for Sadowsky NYC PJ5

Sign in to disble this ad
I'm the proud owner of the very first Rob Allen Deep 5 made. 34in scale, single volume control, one piece maple neck, koa top.

Some play wear show on the fretboard.

Love the bass, fretless may just not be my thing. I bought it in TB a few months ago and I ordered a case from Rob for it but the soft case is included as well. I also have 2 spare sets of strings that I ordered for it (La Bella 5 string long scale, same as stock strings).

Looking for an NYC PJ5, open to most finishes.

Here are some pics:

Not sure about cash - possibly $2600 shipped to lower 48 with case and the 2 extra string sets ($110 value), about an extra $30 if you want the gig bag as well since that will have to go in a separate box.

I'll wait for a trade offer for a bit, I will post here if/when I'm ready to take cash.

Thanks!

Open to cash offers.

Lets start with $2600 to lower 48 with HSC + 2 new sets of strings. $30 more to add the gig bag. Also open to other quality PJ5 style basses OR EBMM Big Al + Cash for trade.

Payment via PayPal eCheck (longer wait time, lower fees).

These are nice. I had a Mouse for awhile (sold it here). That's a good price too.

Very nice. Might have to put my Roscoe fretless 6 er on the block to pick this up. Really regret selling my RA 5. A Deep 5 would be amazing to have.

Here's some pics on the fretboard/dings. Asking price for now is still $2600.

Fretboard:



This one I'm not sure if it's a little ding or a wood mark, but you can see a small dot right by the fret line.

Body dings:





A lot of folks are asking me to come down on price because they know I paid less than the asking price a few months ago here in TB. I did get quite the deal from Rodney on this one. I believe it was $2200. I did add the case that costs $250 and an extra $120 for the 2 sets of strings that are included.

That's why the asking is $2600 shipped, after paypal fees and shipping, I'll actually loose 50-80 bucks. Not trying to make a profit on this bass, just trying to sell it for what it's worth to me.

Really? You paid $100 over his asking price?

Rob Allen Deep 5 34" scale, limited edition

Edit: Good luck with the sale. It really is a beautiful instrument, and probably worth your asking price.

I stand corrected, I paid $2100 so the asking is reduced by $100 to $2500.

I can't tell from the pics. Does this bass have the stacked tone controls on the bridge?

Nope - It's a single volume control. This is the very first Deep 5 Rob made so I don't think the stacked knob pre-amp existed when this one was born.
