FT-Narrow spacing 6 strings with beautiful figured top

After all years of strings no. chasing, I realized i missed a really solid jazz in the closet, and the memory about the root of bass sound is fading...

I am looking for a trade with my custom build 6 strings for your four jazz type bass....( I guess no one will want to put a sadowsky in.. if yes... )

My 6 was build by a backed off luither in State. I got it from the bay year ago. narrow string spacing 16mm, 35 scale, equiped with two Bart dual coil soapbar, NTMB(?) 3 bands Pre. it used to be in 4 knobs config, but weeks ago i upgraded to 5 knobs with smaller knobs for the Tre-mid-bass to get some Fodera smell.( check out my thread for the search of ' small knobs' which a lot of guys laughed at my English.. and finally i find them) . Each pickup was also wired with series-sC- parallel pickup mode selector.

Highly figured F. maple top with birdeyes maple FB, body core is walnut and maple laminate. neck tru.. black hardware.

One thing.. the bass is not bright slappy sounding but a darker one with long sustain.. it is weire to me.. i think i shall be born as a fretless... ng... for any question and more background story, please PM with no hesitatiion.


In fact i am going to sell it at 800US with 50US shipping to wherever you are( poor outside US TBer.. i always eat up the shipping cost for a better sell...). so value it with your four. I am also ok with Warmoth Jazz. fretted or fretless(lined)
If you have some nice one i may consider to add cash for yours.

thanks for the free tag bro chow. Still want my Ken Lawrence?

 

thanks for all the appreciation. i love this bass that why i kept it for quite some times. to be honest, the craftmanship wont is far behind my Nordstrand and the Ken Lawrence. but for a bass i get with such a price ( i got it for 1000 + little bite of shipping) i really appreciate the wood choice and colour of the baby.

I did spent a lot of time to try to find her father.. but the guy who claimed to be the builder who sell me the bass had disappeared, and as my previous post, i try to look for him in TB, however, after Mr.Meyer in TB claimed that it is not his work.. i kindof gave up on it.
well, just let me be her father than.

Thanks again for all your support in bumping up this thread

 

Sales pending, thanks for all the enquiry and kind word
Lokire is the first one who contacted me, and we are working on a trade, an i still own him some pics. I only think i need to work out is someone is offering a sale from Bassgear almost at the same time as Lokire....
