This handmade German Marleaux Mbass 6-string bass is Used but in Very Good Condition: it has been played / gigged regularly and shows normal wear. No cracks or major dents, just some surface nicks, scuffs and scratches (see photos).
The neck is straight, the back of the neck is in very good shape with just light surface wear, the fingerboard is in very good condition (some darkening from normal use, has been cleaned and oiled) and the frets are in excellent condition (hardly any string wear, no grooves or flat spots). Action has been set very low with new D'addario NYXL 32-130 nickel roundwounds and intonation has been properly set; plays and sounds fantastic. A non-original Gator molded hard case is included (has scuffs and wear from travel but no cracks or issues). The bass will be securely packed and fully insured.
