Hi. Truss rod? Also, what's the weight?

lshapebass · #3 02-26-2010, 08:41 AM

No truss rod. Neck is straight. 9.4 lbs. Thanks.

Bump for a wicked bass. Great playability, and I love the sound of these basses. Good luck with the sale, and lucky is the cat who lands this one.

Looks very nice.

I just bought a zon sonus 4, these basses are amazing. I played an Fbass before this, and now the zon is my full time bass. Why? The action is perfect, the bartolini's sound perfect. It was the tone I've been looking for. I wish I could sell my fbass and get this bass.

"Hard to believe this one is still here" bump. Very fair price on a remarkable instrument. I'm on the continual lookout for a bass just like this, but with the 'Special' pickup placement. At that, there's no doubting how good this one must sound.

I guess I should probably make some sort of effort to keep selling this bass... Reluctant bump.

TolerancEJ · #16 11-01-2010, 10:56 AM

Seriously? This instrument has been for sale on TB since February and no takers?

lshapebass · #17 11-01-2010, 02:41 PM

I put it down to a combination of recession and very little actual sales effort on my part. Still, it surprises me, too.

olegsulimov · #18 11-02-2010, 12:57 PM

Gr8 one! Any audio examples?

lshapebass · #19 11-02-2010, 06:55 PM

Couple years ago this would have been gone quickly but people just aren't buying right now. Most of the basses on here aren't moving in the "mid-priced" boutique range.

I'm sure it is well worth the price. These are great basses.
