Custom Watkins 4 string. Trade for fretless

[John Ruiz]

Here it is. It is a prototype built by John Watkins. I traded my Modulus 6 for it here, and I have enjoyed playing it, but now I am itching for a nice fretless bass. Show me what you got!!

There is one pot that is bent slightly (that way when I got it) but it still functions properly, and I imagine that it could be repaired easily.

Either post your trade ideas here, or you can email me at [email protected] . Thanks for looking!

Good to see that Bass is still in a TBers hands. I was the first to buy it from John. He does some fine work. I'd love to see what he's building now!!
Good luck,
Hawk

Due to recent developements, the bass is now also available for sale. I will sell it for $1250 with hardshell case. I hate to sell it, as it is my only bass currently, but I am in need of funds, so....

I'm willing to knock $150 off that price, so if someone would like this bass for $1100 , let me know. It sounds terrific, and plays well. I am also still open to trading it for a fretless if anyone is interested.

John, that model is available in a fretless version, you know....

Also, feel free to contact me about that bent pot. The bass was a prototype, but it still has a limited warranty.

Here's what I've been doing lately, but I hope to be starting a batch of basses soon.
