This is a 2019 Wilcock Short Scale bass.

About Wilcock:

Wilcock basses are made in London. Tim Lefebvre plays one, Brandon Boone plays one. They are generally hard to come by, and only available in the US if you order one custom.

About this bass:

I bought this bass in February from the Bass Gallery in London, and brought it back to Seattle.
When I bought it, it was "ex-demo", I paid £1200. There was no tax but I paid some import duties.
It is in generally good shape, meaning:
- There is a ding between the bridge and the bridge pickup, between the D and G strings.
- Misc surface scratches
- The photos give an accurate representation, and fwiw it's in the same condition as when I bought it.

I am selling this because I don't play as much short scale as I used to. $1600 plus actual shipping. I will ship it in an unremarkable gig bag.

Trades: mostly interested in a P-bass with a J neck - Lakland, Lakin, Moolon, Fender, etc. +/- cash as appropriate. I also like 1970s Ibanez basses. If it has 4 strings, try me
