Title: 2004 Custom Series bass for sale
Post by: LMiwa on November 28, 2025, 10:17:24 AM
This is a Custom Series I with Series II electronics.
I purchased it from another club member in 2009.


This is my gallery of photos.

It is still in the same pristine condition as shown[/font].
Both power supplies are available with two different length cables. The red one is about 10’ and the black one is about 30’.
Both the large top hat knobs and the smaller knobs are included.

From following the second link, 36" seems to be the scale.

Yes, it is 36” scale.
You can contact Callum at info@someneckguitars.com for pricing as they will be handling the transaction.
They are in Dublin, Ireland but can ship worldwide.

Would you sell the DS-5R alone? I’m located in Europe, too!

I remember this awesome bass at the Bag End, Alembic gathering quite a number of years ago.

@matbard - contact Some Neck Guitars as they are listing the bass with the small DS-5 power supply, but they have both of them. I’m pretty sure they would sell you the DS-5R separately.

i'm kinda hoping for a fretless to go with mine.  that'd be a nice combination.  elsewise i don't know what i'd do with 2 fretted backbreaking blunderbusses in the house.  probably hafta weed out some of the smaller dogs to make room for the bigger dogs.  down that path madness lies...

I have played 35" scale basses for over 30 years but 36" would take some getting used to. Really pretty, well-appointed bass and the 3 ebony neck-laminates must help it sound massive.

Hope it finds a special home!
