    Just got this on trade from TB'er Tim Bosby, very sweet instrument. Need to finance my Roadtested P from Mr. Wilkins. Price drop to $1500!

    This is a custom order Wilkins/Warmoth fusion, painted and assembled by Mr. Wilkins and very nicely done. Birdseye Wilkins handmade neck, 34inch scale, 20 jumbo frets on an ebony board with abalone block inlays. Neck is a bit chunky, but not real thick. About 1.6 inch nut. Standard 19mm string spacing at bridge. Weight about 8.5. Paint is Inca Silver with a little green hue mixed in, very exotic. Hipshot hardware, Glockenklang 3-band preamp that works great, very clear and clean sound. Comes with custom-ordered G&G case, blond tolex with blue plush. Very nice package. Selling for $1500 shipped, Con. USA only please.

    This is a nice one, my first real custom. I would have kept it but when stuff starts to break around the house...it all breaks at once. :meh:

    bump, would like to hear some offers. Neck on this bass is very resonant, and if you like larger frets, you'll probably love this bass. Expertly constructed and finished, very high quality instrument for far less than what you would pay for a Wilkins custom bass. Now just $1500. Will consider trade plus cash offers.

    Don't hesitate, people. This is a monster. I would take it back but I'm more into basses with pickguards now.

    The abalone block inlays were done by Fender's Custom Shop and look amazing!!!

    Oh my...gorgeous.

    Played my first Wilkins last week ( a road tested p and a road tested j) and was VERY impressed.
