For sale only: German made Vampyre Dark Lord in excellent condition. I sanded the top down to bare wood and applied the red stain/tung oil finish. There are some fine scuffs and scratches on the upper body on the back, nothing major. The white flecking visible on the back is polish compound in the grain. I moved the strap pin from the back of the upper horn to the horn tip. Otherwise, there are no issues. The bass features a French ash top, ovangkol back and neck, wenge fingerboard, 35" scale, 24 frets, 500 mm fingerboard radius, MEC pickups and active electronics, Warwick's fully adjustable bridge. The bass is heavy, around 11 lbs. Comes with padded Rockbag. The Dark Lord came stock tuned down to F#. I have restrung the bass with DR Low Riders and I typically tune to C or D. Will do standard tuning no problem. I still have the original F# set which can be included with the bass. Price: $1500.00 shipped in the continental U.S.
IIRC, I had a new nut cut. I'll have to get back to you. The Dark Lord is downstairs in my house and my leg is mangled and in a splint so I am unable to negotiate stairs at the moment. I'll get a friend to check as soon as I can. Sorry for the inconvenience.
Well, both actually. I decided to keep the bass and kind of forgot about the thread but I have opted to let it go.
Arrived safely! Had some trouble putting the bass down long enough to actually leave you some feedback. This thing is awesome, and the weight isn't nearly as scary as the numbers make it sound. Thanks again!
