    Let’s get this to a good home ! 4900 shipped ! Ok selling off one of my classics ! Here’s a great example of Jimmy’s 60s tone basses !
    Very open tone and articulate vibe goin on here folks and that’s why I post the clip to prove my point . Those of you that want that vintage mojo and not having to break your back with a heavy bass you might want to pick this one up . The weight is 8.3LBS !!
    Built in 2019
    Alleva Coppolo LG5 Classic Test bass !

    Nitrocellulose Black micro sparkle/ Flakes
    Matching headstock. *Note: there’s is some etching on the back of the headstock by request of original owner, does not effect the tone or playability!! Just FYI.

    Sugar maple neck with nice Dark Indonesian rosewood Capped Board. And this bass has Real Clay dots . Special requested by the previous owner .
    19mm spacing
    Jimmy famous preamp and hand wound pick ups , theses were wound to be a lil more aggressive. With Jimmy OEM wire.
    Will ship with AC protect gig bag .
    And for the demo : the bass was set flat , running through a Noble and slight compression from The FOH engineer.

    NICE demo! That song always sends chills up my spine (in a GOOD way, of course)! We need to put that back in rotation.

    GLWTS! I LOVED my A/C LG5 and KPG5's.

    So on that test bass, Jimmy went from using slab to veneer for the fingerboard and the pickups are underwound... interesting built. :)
