Title: Trade Feeler : Series II [WITHDRAWN]
Post by: neyman on March 03, 2011, 10:04:35 AM

Not sure I'm ready to part with this bass yet, but I'm kinda thinking it's time for this bass to find a new owner.  
 
#80-1504. Most of you know this bass. Trades I'd consider would be a Brown bass or a Wal MkII 5 string.
 
Interested? Shoot me an email

From what I've been told, the Kahler was installed by Valley Arts Guitar.

Ooh.  Beautiful bass.  Seems to have a lovely patina even via photo.
 
Bet she sounds like a million bux!

It does sound like a million! The Kahler gives this bass a boat load of sustain, and the resonance of the strings is amazing. It's actually fairly loud unplugged. It's also pretty lightweight. I haven't officially weighed it yet, but it feels lighter than my 78 Pbass (9.5 lbs).
 
As for neck widths, it's the standard SII measurements:  
Nut width 1.750    
24th fret width 2.250
 
It does have red LEDs, BTW.

That's the bass from the consignment store in Texas, right?

Nope. Bought it from a store in CA a few years ago.

Maybe I'm confused. In any case, best of luck with the deal.
