So sayeth Grove Guitars: "A build for bass icon, recording artist and touring musician Freekbass (Freekbass). A reverse bodied, one piece, chambered mahogany '51 P with a maple reverse Tele bass neck and Lindy Fralin '51P split single coil. 2013 finds Freekbass in a blues power trio touring the US and Canada with the Kelly Richey Band in support of the 2013 release "Sweet Spirit". It's good stuff. I'm humbled that Freekbass has chosen to endorse Grove Guitars." - Bass - Grove Guitars & Basses (scroll down).
I've had this one for a bit now. Love having this unique bass in my collection, but find myself reaching for my jazz profile P's more these days. I'd rather see this in action than collect dust.
Specs:
- chambered darkened grain mahogany reverse '51P body
- Atlas Explosives dovetailed crate top with F-hole
- Warmoth lightly flamed maple neck with rosewood fingerboard (Notice, the pics with Freekbass show it with a maple fingerboard and reverse headstock. The neck was changed to a flame maple/rosewood neck with standard Tele headstock by Scott Smail [Grove owner]).
- Lindy Fralin split coil '51 P pickup
- chrome German Schaller tuners
- BadAss II bridge
- Volume/Tone setup with CTS pots
- orange drop .047uF cap
- A-B 15k resistor
- nitro clear coat
- strung with D'Addario Pro Steels
Looking for $850 shipped in a G&G vintage Fender branded case (shown in last pic)! Specific trade interest includes a Godin A4 fretted, or an EBMM Big Al 4-SSS.
Thanks for looking!
