Club Alleva-Coppolo (Part 21)

My AC...a 06 EUT5 is STILL the ONLY bass that I can guarantee will do any job I take it to. I take a P with flats and it might not have the spark. ... a Stingray. ... might not quite have the finesse. ..
But the EUT5 will do ANYTHING and sound superb at it. That AC pre is just gawjuss! !!

View attachment 1126869 Anyone interested in an Alleva-Coppolo onboard preamp? I got this from Samuel a little while back and it sounded fantastic in a bass I no longer own. Now that I'm down to two AC's and two Sad's, not using anymore. Thought I would offer here first before posting in the classifieds. Not sure the value...Thinking around $225?
This awesome tone circuit is on it's way to Germany. Thanks for all the interest.

that looks correct... [email protected]
are you sending from a weird email address? Military maybe? Maybe it is being bounced by your servers? I have heard of that happening at times..
If so try another like Gmail or Yahoo. etc.; If not maybe i can relay a message for you. I will be out of town for 2 weeks starting monday so i may not be able to help until i return..

 
There must be some filter problems... Send me your email address in a PM.. I missed him when i was in LA last week .. I need to call him this week and i will see if i can get him to search you out. I will ask him to go thru his mailbox...

Here the same. I wrote Jimmy several emails - including a price quote for a new purchase order and never got a response ... hm...
 
Nice. You got the RA5 from BSD. I came very close to snagging that one....but you beat me to it!
AC's are fantastic instruments and Jimmy is really on his game right now.
I love my LG5's.

Awesome bass, As soon it was place on their website i saw it and bought it. The color on this bass it's just stunning. I originally wanted a LM5, but i am glad I got this RA5 because it kills.The best Jazz bass I have ever owned

Beautiful!
What IS the color?

Congrats, Otto! I can't post about basses I particularly like obviously because I'm selling them, but I was in love with that RA. And it's hard to photograph--the color is really stunning in person. Depending on the angle of the light, the color goes more deep blue-violet to more reddish fuscia-purple.
