For sale Muckelroy 5 string bass

That's beautiful... WOW GLWTS

If I didn't have one being made right now, I'd be losing sleep over this one.

Thanks! I hate to to sell it but my daughter needs a car and because of Covid I’ve been out of work for six months. Anyway, it’s a great bass! I originally got it because I was having trouble with my hands after playing for years and this bass is so easy to play with the slightly shorter scale. The day it arrived Brady called to ask what I thought and I replied “it’s the single best instrument I’ve ever played”. I still feel that way and when the world returns to normal I will have another one built. Until then I hope someone else can enjoy this example from a truly gifted luthier.

Very nice! I’ve had six Muckelroys and the most tonally versatile by far was a medium scale HMC with the exact same pickups, preamp and controls configuration as this one. You’re a good dad, Limey. GLWTS!

That's a steal at that price!

What’s the weight?

Here’s the original posting from Muckelroy’s Facebook page

I have an HMC Muck 4, serial number 351! They're almost cousins! Mine's the one in my profile! The single best bass I have ever owned or played!

They're kissin' cousins! Mine is an absolute BEAST of an instrument! Comes in at less than 8 pounds, is SUPER sensitive to both right and left hands, ridiculous playability. Gorgeous looks...it has IT ALL. Just on another level, man!

Mine is 8.5lbs. Not bad for a 6 string!

What is the string spacing?
