Title: 1991 S2 Med. Scale bass FS [SOLD]
Post by: glocke on September 11, 2013, 04:52:02 AM

Posting my 1991 S2 Med. Scale bass with coco-bolo front and back, side leds and front leds. This bass was refretted back at the mother ship about two years ago. It plays great, it sounds great, and while letting it go is somewhat painful it is softened somewhat by the fact that I am really more comfortable playing a shorter scale bass.  
 
some cell phone pics are here..I will be able to take some better pics later this week. bass comes with DS5 power supply. Signature on the back is Mark King.  
 
There are also no electronics issues that I am aware of...I have played this out in a couple of different venues and have encountered no noise or interference...

OMG.  A medium scale Series II is my dream bass.  But I just had to sell my Stanley Sig Std to make rent. What a beauty!

FWIW, at the NJ Alembic gathering a few years ago, this was the ''go to bass w/ the Phil Jones rig.... Out of several dozen Alembics, and twenty some-odd players that really says a lot...
 
When I bought my fretless off of Greg a few years back, I had the opportunity to sit down alone w/ this bass, and she surely is a joy to play.... I almost had buyers remorse for letting go of my SI 32 fretted, and going for his 34 fretless...  
 
If there's a bass on the market worth knitting stockings for right now, this is it!.... The whippets dinkel all the way!...

Hey Michael, thanks. Things have settled down for me here. I am retired, got my S2 back (same one), and my daughter graduates law school in May. I can't complain. Well, if only I could find that black Spoiler...
