    I purchased this here in April, used it for 3 tracks on a recording project and it's been sitting in it's case since.

    Custom build in Spanish Copper with no dots on a jet-black ebony board and a perfectly trimmed Graphtech nut. Straight-grain maple neck that's got a wonderful profile.

    Minor scuffing on the black pickguard below the G, but perfect otherwise. Will ship strung with the OEM D'Addario Nickel Rounds.

    $1100.00 shipped FedEx CONUS, PayPal only and NO international sales.

    I was really impressed with the quality of this basses tone in the various YouTube clips that I have seen.

    This neck is incredible. It ticks off all the boxes for me (naked ebony, great fretwork & nut) and I know I’m gonna regret selling it.

    As the original owner, I can say that - if you are considering a Kiloton, you should look no further. The neck and action on this instrument are outstanding. I sold it to Chris because I badly needed to "thin the herd" at the time. It's a great bass.

    I'm cranky in my old age.
    Trades? I'm a sucker for G&Ls.

    Thanks, but no trade interest at this point. I have something in planning that will require some hard $$.

    If the bass I have listed on Reverb sold, I’d be all over it.
