Details

So, because of a new round of GAS, I am going to *go in another direction* and not be so paranoid about having a Sinsonido backup. I gig with one regularly, and I - not long ago - bought a second as a backup.

It's fretted, and comes with a gig bag.

Replaced the pre-amp with one directly from Aria.

Never even been taken out of the bag at a gig - just used at home to *prepare* it.

Has DAddario Half Round flats on it.

New they Were 350. We were recently told the next round of stock will sell at 450.

A great deal at 240 plus shipping.

I won't keep this ad live here long. After today, I'll just go eBay it.

If you are not familiar with what they look like, look them up at the ariausa or music123 websites.

I'm on the road, but I guess I can post some tomorrow.

Ok, and now, some notes:

- There's a doink in photo 2, near the truss rod hole. I'll bet it was there when I bought it.

- No bass is perfect - not at this end of the cost spectrum, anyway. I have often cautioned buyers that if nothing less than perfection - especially cosmetic - perfection is required, please buy from someone else. But, this bass is nearly new, looks, feels, and plays really good. You can get some impressive tone from this bass.

- If you are a newcomer to Sinsonidos, do not be shocked by the preamp. It's very hot, and with tone up, extremely trebly. The sweet spot - for me, anyway, is volume at about 70% and somewhere between 3% and 0% - depending on the situation. If you do not dial down both the volume and the tone, you will think the bass is *noisy*.

- Headphones are not included. They have been swallowed by my household's black hole, where socks, favorite shirts, and tools also reside.

- The side bars have Not been swallowed by the black hole, and they are included.

- Gig bag - with cool red plush interior - is included.

- IMHO, for the right folks, a Steal at $240.

just wanted to mention that I have one and they get an amazingly good upright bass sound, even fretted!

Thanks. Yup - it is a very versatile bass. Definitely a sleeper - if more people knew about the bass, they'd own them. I have alot of fun with it.
