FS/FT: Pedulla Pentabuzz, 5AAAAA Flame maple.

Sign in to disble this ad
I am somewhat bored at the moment with fretless and not playing it at the moment, so decided to put this up and see what trade offers i get

References

My ebay ID is Asomodai, and my basschat.co.uk username is Shockwave (I am a moderator there)

Description

Here we have a fantastic example of a Pedulla Pentabuzz 5 String. I have had the bass for nearly 2 years now and its been a joy to play. I have never had a problem with it, smooth to play. Made in the USA around the year 2000.

Specification

This example is a Dark Cherry red burst with minimal yellow. Premium 5AAAAA Solid Flame maple body, with maple neck, bare ebony fingerboard, Premium bartolini pickups and NMTB 2 band bart pre-amp. Pedulla/ABM branded hardware. Hardware is all Gold. 19MM String spacing, 34" scale.

The bass also includes a Pedulla hardcase.

Functionality

The electronics, Jack socket and truss rod has no issues whatsoever and are fully functional. The neck is straight as an arrow.

Playability

This bass is setup for me personally, this is a very personal unique setup which some people may not like, this includes an incredibly low action, ultra light stainless steel strings (110-30) which are tuned B to G. However the bass has plenty of leeway in truss rod adjustment and Bridge saddle adjustment so the new owner can personalise the bass with their own setup with NO problems. I will also include a set of brand new heavy nickel wounds.

This is THE best fretless i have ever played and probably the best fretless made currently.

Sounds

The soapbar bartolinis are a good mix of burpy Ken Smith sound, to a upright woody neck pickup sounds. Its a quality setup, much preferable IMO to the P-J version.

Condition

The bass is near perfect in all particulars. Not much to note. Very very VERY minor fingerboardwear.

Price/Trades

£1350

Straight trades: Roscoe/Zon/Ken Smith/2X Musicmans/76'/77'/78' Musicman/Wal/Fretted Pedulla 5/Or other 5/6 Strings preffered. Neck Thru Preferred. Gorgeous looking preffered! Must have a LOW action. Lightness preffered! 34" Scale a MUST.

Part Exchange (With cash my way) Fender USA Deluxe 5's in Montego black Plus cash/1X Musicman plus cash/Gibson Grabber plus cash/

Part Exchange (With cash YOUR way) God knows, better be good!

Delivery

I can offer a hand delivered service to your nearest major train station for the same price as postage would have cost, however this offer is only available to people willing to meet within 200 miles of Bristol UK

You can also pick up the bass locally in Bristol UK. Where you can try it out through my Ampeg/Trace/Barefaced rig.

Shipping within the UK and abroad will be estimated on a case by case basis. Please PM with details.

Other information

The Pedulla requires a special truss rod tool, which can be bought from mansons in Exeter online and any other Pedulla dealer. I only have one and require it for my fretted Pedulla. However if needed i can demonstrate that the truss rod works 100% in this bass using my tool before purchase.


If you require any other information or specific photos of the bass, please let me know either by PM or my E-mail address Anubispearl@hotmail.com, My number is also available for serious buyers.
