96 Short Scale Ser2 Coco Bolo Bass up for sale..
« on: March 04, 2018, 03:15:57 PM »
Hi All, I am going to be putting up the SS Ser2 bass guitar up for sale.  It was posted some years ago and has been sitting in its case.
I will also be putting up my Ken Smith BT6 3 switch and Burner Classic 5 string.

I believe he lives is Toronto, as per the old thread. If so, Cocobolo will require CITES paperwork for international shipping.

I think I replied to All who inquired. I will take some photos with my camera and figure a way to post go the site.

Some of you may know the history. Brief history... The bass was originally fretless. When I bought it I had Alembic convert it to fretted. I also had them add side LEDs and a dimmer. The fretboard has not markings on it.  Alembic sent me 2 new pickups because we found that one was a bit faulty. The bass has been sitting in it's case for years. When I got the bass from Alembic I wrapped the body in plastic so it would not scratched. The last time I checked it sounded ok..When I take the photos I will check to see that everything is ok.

Thanks Joe, you have been a great help thanks for posting these  photos

All...
These are some photos that I took with my phone...
There are 3 small blemishes on the back plate near 3 screw holes. The finish is smooth, no bubbling so it looks like tarnish or oxidation not sure.  The compartment is tightly packed so you will see that there are some finger smudges on the inside upper area of the controls back plate caused when I was getting the plate in place to take a photo.  Dislike opening the back.
As you csn see in the photos ....The inside of battery plate, battery compartment, control back plate and control compartment are all clean.

Does the bass function as it should? Any problems?
