Here’s a chance to own an incredibly crafted 5 string custom bass built by master-luthier Andrew Drake out of Iowa. I’ve owned a few Drake basses at this point, and I’m always blown away with the playability, tone, and overall quality of his basses. The EMG electronics on this one sound amazing coupled with the chambered mahogany body, and the 33” scale and thin neck make it a breeze to play.
This one is in really nice plying shape with a straight neck and low action (I play with a soft touch). I currently have it setup E-C and it sounds great. When I first bought the bass it was setup B-G, so I will include the original B string if you choose to swap back.
The previous owner also had the frets professionally replaced, leveled, and dressed. The new stainless steel frets look and feel great. There are various wear marks, scratches, dings, and gauges on the body and neck of the bass, but overall it’s in very good condition.
Asking $1450 Shipped Fully Insured Con US only
Trade wise I'm mainly interested in 32"-34" scale 4 string basses with multiple pickups, but I'm open to anything. Local deals are strongly preferred.
Trade Value - $1450
