No longer available Prat M-BSV - 5 string, 33" scale, singlecut bolt-on, buckeye

Haven't seen many Prat basses on the FS forums. This one is a beauty! I bought this direct and brand new from Oscar Prat in July 2015. It is my 2nd of his basses with similar specs, this one setup for B-G. This isn't getting much use and it needs to be getting played. I just checked before posting and this bass is in nearly unplayed condition. Can't find any scratches or dings anywhere. $2500

• Mahogany body
• Buckeye top, matching ramp, knobs and headstock top
• 2 Nordstrand DC pickups with series/single/parallel switches for each pickup
• Mike Pope 4 band pre w/ push-pull on the passive tone knob, internal gain adjustable

• Kases padded case included

This bass is punchy, great for finger style. A wide variety of tones available with the preamp and pickup switches. A bit tight for slapping if that's your thing, but can get a great slap tone with the pickups in single coil mode. The B speaks very well, despite the shorter scale length. Full and easy access all the way up to that 28th fret.

For trades, just looking to check out something different and roughly the same value. Would most likely prefer a 5 or 6 string.

Please NO offers of 35" scale, fretless, Warwicks, off-the-shelf Fenders.

Questions, just ask!

 

To the top! Added nut width and weight. Sound clips coming

 

Robin, you're always welcome to check it out any time as long as I have it! But I know exactly what you're talking about.

 

I appreciate the comments, all! I will get some sound clips soon, I promise.

In the mean time, open to offers!
