FS/FT Wood & Tronics Chronos 5 / 33"

Sign in to disble this ad
Hi
I´m selling my W&T Custom Single Cut 5-string 33". I bought it from Margus Alviste about 3 years ago. This bass was played by Matthew Garrison during a European tour with Herbie Hancock (if Margus told me the truth). My English is too bad for write down how good instrument it is. I´m selling it because I have realized that I´m not solo bass player.
TOP - Figured Poplar - with adjustable finger ramp (£120 option)
BODY - American Walnut with Alder Heal Block
NECK: 7-piece Zebrawood-Padouk-Maple-Ash-Maple-Padouk-Zebrawood
SCALE: 33" with banjo frets
FINGERBOARD: Ebony, 26 frets
PICKUPS:Nordstrand Single Cut
ELECTRONICS:John East
BRIDGE: ETS
Battery low LED indicator (£45 option)
All Wood&Tronics basses include a professional gig bag.
Right now this bass is tuned EADGC.
The new price in BassDirect is 2350 £ + options 165£ = 2515£ http://www.bassdirect.co.uk/bass_gui...dT_Prices.html
My price is 2000 EUR + shipping cost. Shipping to EU countries is about 150 EUR
You can see pictures at http://fotoalbum.ee/photos/jazzpunkrock/sets/809217
Trades: Alleva Coppolo KBP 4 or Fender Pino Balladino P-bass

bump for a super bass! Wood & Tronics makes fantastic instruments, I've played 2 of them and were incredible basses. And now they are launching the new bolt-on models... good luck with the sale!

Hey, this really is a great bass. I've played it personally against tens of high end basses including a few Foderas and this little beast won them all. And yes, Matt played the same bass during his Italian tour with Herbie.
Who ever buys this bass gets a wonderful tool.

I've played a Wood & Tronics bass and it was simply one of the best basses I've ever held in my hands. Don't hesitate

well i was checking too but thread is bit old and no answers or "ups" since a while ,
it either got sold or the guy gave up ,good basses i did try some of them including that model and gonna try others next week.
At least a "now is sold" should have been mentioned though ,since someone asked for that.
l sniff "fishy stuff even for less and dont risk/bother ,expecially when we speak about grands ;as others would (i believe) .
