After a bad car accident and resulting spinal column issues, it is clear that I can no longer make use of this bass. Originally looking to trade it (see this thread http://www.talkbass.com/forum/showthread.php?t=658020 ), it's now for sale. FBB will be building me a new bass to replace this, so this will help to fund the new build.
FBB # 1112-06, 35" scale fretted 7, 18mm spacing at bridge, Hipshot hardware, FBB custom pickups, Audere Z preamp, passive by-pass switch to VOL only. 5A quilted maple top, African Mahogony back, 5 piece rock maple/bloodwood neck-through.
This is a serious bass, my main player for the past 4 years. It is a working bass, so it has some minor bruising but nothing significant (no gouges, chips, etc), mostly just some mojo funk from working hard. Currently strung with LaBella flats (.029-.049-.069-.089-.109-.128) six set with a high F SIT .018 plain steel.
Clips of the bass are in several spots on my web site and YouTube channel. This bass plays incredible well, has a huge presence in a live setting, excellent balance, thin neck profile, and is a striking looking axe. It's a big boy, too .... when looking at pics on my web site, keep in mind that I'm 6'5" and 250 pounds ..... not a small bass by any stretch.
Outright sale for $1,800 shipped. I'm in no rush, so "payment plans" are cool with me. PayPal is fine, too.
Give a shout if there are any questions .....
