Title: [SOLD] 2018 Series I 4 string
Post by: JPMcGuire on December 15, 2023, 10:37:22 AM
Here we have a newer mint series I with a flamed walnut top and flame maple back.  Balanced K, and right at 10lbs. 34" scale.   Never gigged and bought new from station music in 2022.  Selling because I'm mainly a 5/6 player and for my one 4 string the win for me is my original 59 P.  This bass is killer.  Case, power supply, case candy all there. 

Give me a call/text if interested.   Only partial trade is maybe a simpler 4 string fretless, as I have a desire to learn fretless for jazz gigs. 

New this was 22k.   Sell for $13800 shipped conus cash to club member!

Open to work a better deal to get this to a new owner for their number 1.  Best alembic I've tried hands down

<disclaimer> not affiliated with the seller in any way shape or from.

ok i'll do a little cheerleading here.  those balance K bodies are the bomb as far as ergonomics and comfort go.  even on an 11-1/2 lb. bass which is what mine is.  mine neckdives a little 'cause it's a five-string, i'd guess with a lighter neck and headstock it's probably not as noticible on a 4-string. second only to the exploiter bodies imho.  haven't tried a dragonwing yet, prolly not gonna happen.

so if yer looking for an upgraded instrument that'll knock 'em dead at the next hoedown, this is yer best bet.  imho.
