Update: Big price drop. I need to move some gear to help pay for my daughters wedding. Price includes shipping. I make regular trips into SF Bay Area, so I can discount a bit for anyone who wants to take delivery in person.
-------------------------------------------------------
I bought this here on Talkbass about 18 months ago, and it was my #1 goto for much of that time. After many years of playing 5 and 6 string basses, I’ve moved back to playing 4 strings pretty much exclusively.
Alder body, maple neck, Brazilian rosewood board with blocks and binding. Celinder PJ pickups and Greengrove 2-band preamp with internal dip switches to control Q and treble/bass frequencies. This bass sounds amazing, with a killer B-string and a huge tonal range that allows you to dial in anything from old school P bass to aggressive, modern Marcus Miller J bass sparkle.
35” scale; weight is 10 lbs even. Includes Mono gig bag and additional white pick guard. It has a few dings, (documented in the photos), but nothing serious.
Some history: I first played this bass at a GTG about 10 years ago. Loved it then, but it was not for sale. Over the years, it has been owned by several people before making its way into my hands. During that time, the truss rod had become unseated. I had luthier Keith Holland reseat the truss rod, plane the neck, and replace the frets. The action, feel, and playability of this bass are wonderful. I’ve had it set up with a medium / low action to accommodate both finger style and slap. Currently strung with DR SunBeams.
If you’re looking for a Celinder, then you know how hard these are to come by; a PJ-5 even more so.
Asking $2650 shipped in the CONUS. Cheque or money order (preferred). No PayPal. Not interested in trades.
Thanks for looking.
