Zon Sonus 8 string - super rare - crazy light!

[IanAllison]

I know it's a cliche to say this, but . . . it pains me.

This is a completely original 1999 Zon Sonus 8 string in transparent red (called 'Sienna Red' at the time). I am the original owner. Joe Zon and I had several conversations about this bass back in 98. I wanted something super light and resonant. He delivered. This bass is crazy light - 7.9 pounds on my digital scale! It is also, as promised, incredibly resonant and alive. If you've been looking for an 8 string to play the rock and roll music I hear the kids are into these days, look no further!

Always love 8's and 10's... Why does gas strike every day.

Wonderful instrument, who ever gets it is one lucky dude

Ever since I saw the bassplayer from MIRV play one I've wanted one. Must think about this.

Gurgle gurgle gurgle - that's me doing my best Homer Simpson drool. That is just amazing.

I've only ever played an eight string once -- it was a used Hamer, a bit of a chore to play, but almost unbelievably fun. This one looks like it would be a good time. Really pretty, too.

Hard to tell from the pics, but are those independently adjustable saddles for the octave and bass strings?

[superjesus]

Gorgeous.

Yes indeed - each saddle is fully adjustable for intonation and height.
