Beautiful 2016 Kiesel Vader 5. Very small doinks near the upper strap button and on the treble-side of the fingerboard (underneath). Otherwise in amazing shape. Recently setup (E-C, Fodera strings). Stellar playability and sound! 8 lbs. even on the bathroom scale. $1000 Shipped CONUS - no trades at this time please. Thanks for looking!
Interesting bass is it Passive? Single coil pickups or humbuckers? What is the control layout? Can I string it B to G without modification?
Yes, these came passive standard. Pickups are humbuckers: VB4 KIESEL VADER 4-STRING HEADLESS ELECTRIC BASS Vol-Vol-Tone Have never tried, but don't see why not. As with all basses, nut might need finessing.
Did you ever play it with a B string. Kinda curious how the B sounds on a 30 inch scale. How is the E string?
Great looking bass. I just bought one strung with a low B and shortscale and it plays ands sounds great.
