Details

Up for trade is a killer F Bass BN4 with a really nice Pat Wilkins Transparent Black Refinish.

Features
:

-Northern Ash Body

-Quarter-sawn 3 piece maple neck + fretboard

-FBass Single Coil/Humbucker Stacked Pickups

-Fbass 3 Band Boost Only Preamp with active passive toggle + passive tone control

-Pat Wilkins Refinish in Transparent Black. It looks dark brown or black depending on lighting, and the grain pattern shows through up close.

-Chrome Hipshot Bridge

-Gotoh tuners

-Nut width is 1 5/8”

-22 Frets

-19 mm String Spacing

-Handmade African Blackwood knobs

--8.8 lbs. on my bathroom scale.

-Tweed Hardshell Case Included

The bass shows signs of wear and tear with minor swirling scratching in the finish in areas and a couple dings on the body. There’s also a minor scuff and a ding on the back and side of the headstock.

It is in great playing shape with a nice straight neck, low action, and solid intonation. The electronics function as they should, and it sounds incredible.

This one is truly amazing. I'm mainly listing to see what else might be out there, but it's mostly boredom.

Trade Value - $2400

Looking for 4 string basses +/- $ in either direction.

Trade interests include: Warwick, CB Basses, Pete Hilton, Muckelroy, F Bass, G&L, Fender etc...

Let me know if you have any questions

Asking because I'm wondering if it's my old F bass BN4. Here is a picture if it from around 15 years ago. Had an unusual grain on the upper horn (and was natural).

The grain on that one is really nice. I really like how F Bass does the enhanced grain on their natural basses.

The grain on this one doesn’t pop as much, so it may have been a transparent color.

Ahhhhhhhhhhhh!!!
This bass rules.
I slightly regret getting rid of this one but I did so to fund my new Drake J which is amazing so I guess it was worth it.
