Two Reverend basses

Sign in to disble this ad
Two Reverend basses for sale - one USA and one Import.
Brad Houser is SOLD. Prototype Dub King is still available!

I wrote an homage to them, here.

One is the PROTOTYPE Dub King bass, the 30" short scale, super low action, insanely awesome playing and sounding bass that brought Reverend back into the bass game. The other is a rather rare Brad Houser signature model 5 string, with stacked jazz pickups (tapped), in a 35" scale. The BH5 is in Space Race Silver brushed aluminum front, and black back.

Both are in great shape, play and sound like you read about.

Both come with cases, although the Dub King Proto is in a slightly too small import Reverend CK guitar case (prob from NAMM, pre-bass cases being released), while the BH5 is in USA Reverend tuxedo teardrop bass case.

The DK Proto is $850, paypalled/shipped.

No trades at this time. Unless you have a mandocello.
I'm in Los Angeles - $50 off for cash/pickup.

And a special Reverend prize to anyone who can identify the "footmen" named in the poem, whom I have named the basses after.

And here they are, Borange and Chilver:




I'll take more pics in the next few days, but they are a nice as they look.
Here is your chance to snag a great pair that spans some cool Reverend history!

New Pics of the Dub King Proto:

A couple of interested PMs, but nobody has pulled the trigger. If you want this sent out before Xmas, let me know soon!
I'm leaving early Monday morning for a week, so you have a couple days to decide if you must have it





Full Album Here with More Pics!
The DK Proto is a nice deep rich rock orange color. I took some pics with and without flash to show how it can look different.

proto-bump!

the Dub King really needs to go to someone who will use it - it's got the lowest action and easiest playing feel of any bass i've ever touched.

bump for the Dub King prototype - this is a seriously kickin' bass ...

and to clarify, it's a nice "rock orange" (solid bright orange) color - the "lighter" area in the pics are just flash or sunlight interacting with the gloss finish
