Details

I had to repost this thread and close the original because I was getting too many trade offers. This bass is for sale only.

Retail is $3,467 and I'm asking $2,500, or best offer. Low-ballers will be ignored, "Ain't nobody got time for that!" I'll cover shipping and insurance to the lower 48. If there are overseas interests the buyer will have to cover shipping/customs/and insurance charges.

I've had this bass for just over a year and it's been kept cased in favor of my Imperial V. I don't want to let it go, but I'm not using it and I'm just trying to thin my herd.

Please check out the link for updated pics and info. This is truly a great bass!!!

Namn video was incredible, can not believe I have never seen these basses before bump. How are the frets oh the side of the neck? I have found when overseas builders spend so much time on cosmetics, that the mechanics tend to suffer.GLWYS ! Holy sheet, just saw price, what a deal!

This bass is incredibly easy to play man. I never had any issues w/the fretwork at all and I'm a stickler for things like that. Hadrien makes it look insanely easy. But the tone he has is how I like to dial it in on this bass. I'm very fond of the passive tone on this piece.

Hopefully it goes to a good home soon.

Many thanks for the bumps! I believe the price is fair considering all options and condition, but if someone wants to come within the ballpark, I'll certainly entertain it.

Suddenly the 1,800.00 that was marked down from 2,200.00 on my Sandberg, does not seem like such an amazing deal anymore. This is truly the coolest wood top, I have ever seen. And spalted used to be my favorite.:bawl:

Thanks brotha! If only more people knew right?! Like I said, I'm willing to work on price, I just need a fair consumer to throw a bone. None of this, "I'll give ya 1600 for it." That's not ball-park at all. That's little league field or T-ball or something...not the ball park :)

Ain't nobody gaht time f'dat!!

Thanks again Jakkkk!!

You have been a member like me, since 2008, they are just waiting for you to come down. Believe me there are people very interested that wouldn't pay dealer prices. My deceased Father always told me," the patient will be rewarded". This bass will sell itself on it's own merits. GLWYS Bump!

I agree!! I would like to see more offers is all. I'm not stone cold set on 2500. I just want to see something in the ball park. I was hesitant to bring it to 2k because people will be throwing out offers like 1500 or less. That won't happen. I'm already selling it for 1200 less than I bought it. I'll keep the patience in check ;). Thanks for the words man!

I've offered my Modulus as a trade for this before, but you weren't interested. I'm fine with keeping the Mod, I'll probably give it some new pickups before too long....but this would tempt me.

Hey Dave,

I appreciate the interest. Unfortunately I'm not looking for any trades at all. I've only wanted to thin my herd and stick to my main players (Fodera V and Fender IV). Anything else is just extra that I wouldn't need. If you're still interested by all means PM me.

Thanks again,

Mike
