- Fretless
- Y
I am somewhat reluctantly putting this incredible instrument up for sale. $2400 Shipped. For Sale only.
I received this bass from Cliff in April 2009.
Specs
Spanish Cedar Body
Figured Purpleheart and Ebony top. Purpleheart back.
Modern Neck (Flame Maple/Wenge/Flame Maple)
Fretless Ebony fingerboard. Purpleheart side stripes (binding) and lines.
Purpleheart and Ebony front headstock cap. Purpleheart rear headstock cap. "A" shape headstock
Purpleheart and Ebony playing ramp (Flat, height set screw adjustable)
Black Hipshot A bridge (19mm), Ultralite tuners, Dunlop Dual Design straplocks
Audere 3 band Z mode preamp. 3 way mid freq. selection switch. Z mode switch. Active/Passive switch. 18 volts
Nordstrand Dual Coil Pickups. Series/Single Coil/Parallel switching.
Purpleheart and Ebony control cavity cover and battery cavity cover. Threaded inserts.
Weighs right around 10 lbs.
This bass is in excellent condition with the exception of a few minor cosmetic issues and buckle rash (see pics). This bass has been gigged/toured with so it is not flawless. With that being said, this is the best fretless bass I have ever played. The neck is extremely stable! I have had to adjust the truss rod maybe 5 times since I got it (and that's living in Chicago). The fingerboard is in great shape and I have always had this strung with nickel rounds.
The ebony top near the truss rod access had cracked recently so I flooded it with CA and sanded it down. Put a couple coats of oil on it to match the finish. I also went over the fingerboard with some superfine sand paper and put a coat of oil over it. The whole instrument has been hand buffed with wax and strung with a new set of DAddario EXL nickels and setup with nice low action. Will ship in the Protec gig bag I got with it. I will pay extra to have this securely packaged at a UPS location. I paid around $4000 for this new... tons of upgrades on this bass! Sorry no trades.
PICS!

Ding on lower horn. Probably from my gig bag zipper
