Hi, selling my Brubaker Lexa 5. I picked this up here on TB (Brubaker Lexa 5), but I’ve decided to move it along.

Note on Pickups: The bass is being sold without pickups. My tech and I attempted a swap, but we discovered the neck pickup rout is very shallow due to the deep neck joint design. I decided not to deepen the routing to avoid hitting the neck joint, so this is currently a "project" bass that will require pickups that fit a shallow route or some custom modification.

There's a ding on the back of the neck as pictured.

Specs from the previous ad (w/o pickups):
  • Scale - 34 5/8"
  • Nut Width - 44 mm/1.73"
  • String Spacing - 18 mm at bridge
  • Pickups - None
  • Preamp - Seymour Duncan 3-Band, Bass/Treble Stacked, Volume/Push-Pull EQ Contour (aka "Slap") Switch
  • Body Wood - Paulownia
  • Top - Quilted Maple
  • Neck - Maple
  • Fretboard - Wenge
  • Bridge/Tuners - Hipshot

Please feel free to ask any questions.

Price includes shipping. Bass shipped to CONUS only. No gig bag included, but I will pack it securely. PayPal G&S only.

I have been looking to replace this same model that I foolishly let go of a decade ago. Let's definitely connect!

for anyone interested, bartolini soapbars are about 0.75 inches thick. So you need about another quarter inch for foam backing or whatever to accomodate wiring and prevent damage to solder connections, and the height of the pickups themselves probably are about a quarter of an inch "higher" than the bass body surface. This will give you an idea of space requirements.
