Alleva Coppolo RA5 Custom - Ice Blue Nitro - Alder / Maple - 70's


For sale or trade.

I couldn’t say it better so I’m going to borrow a previous owners ad-


Here is my 2016 Alleva Coppolo RA5.


Here are the specs.


-Alder body Ice Blue Metallic (nitro)

-One piece maple neck with maple board and skunk stripe (poly coated back and fretboard)

-Black blocks and binding (RA)

-Vintage tint nitro headstock

-21 fret, 34" scale

-70s spaced Homegrown AC pups

-19mm spacing AC Vintage Bridge

-Hipshot ultra light tuners

-9.41 pounds on my Rapala Fish Scale

-Ships in a New Lakland Hardshell Case


Check out Jimmy's website which has recently been completely updated so people can get a better feeling of each model he offers:

ALLEVA COPPOLO

It’s in excellent condition, but not mint. It has beautiful Nitro Laquer checking and a few nicks. ACs are known for game ending tone and this one has it in spades. Jimmy doesn’t build many RA's which makes them quite special! It's the Geddy Lee Spec really - Alder / Maple with 70's spacing. Super versatile. I find this one sits in the mix beautifully and better than many LG’s

This RA5 has a killer B string!

Trade interest 1st would be another AC 5 with maple board, but weight would need to be closer to 8.5 or less. Would also consider a AC 4 or 5 string with maple or rosewood board.

Other 5 strings 34 or 33” scale length under 8.5 lbs, maple board preferred but other considered. + - cash

Randy is a great guy to deal with and this AC is exceptional!
RA's are not very common and are very special.
Alder / Maple and nitro finish....similar to Geddy Lee's 1972 Fender Jazz which is a legend.
This particular bass is legendary and needs to be experienced to be believed.
It has a solid fundamental and beautiful overtones.
Who ever gets this is in for a real treat!
