£350 ono collected from Sunderland (or delivered in the Tyne & Wear/North East area). Bit of a tough sell given that I don't have a box to post, but thought I'd give it a go here as well as the usual local FB selling forums.

I bought it about a year ago to replace my Ibanez 500 as I fancied having changing to 5 strings from 4. These are some of the best value, most versatile and no-nonsense basses you ever come across. The pickups are the excellent Bartolini MK1 Humbuckers, and the 3 band active EQ makes it incredibly versatile.

It's light for a 5 string, and the neck is about as narrow and finger-friendly as you could wish for in a 5-string.

It's barely a year old and has been lightly used. It got a wee bit of gigging action in Jan/Feb last year, but has barely been touched since Covid hit so is in great condition.

Neck: 5pc Jatoba/Bubinga
Body: Mahogany
Bridge: Accu-Cast B25 (16.5mm string spacing)
Pickups: Twin Bartolini MK1 Humbuckers
Eq: Bartolini MK1 3-band EQ

These don't come with a gig bag or case, but I bought the official Premium Range fitted semi hardcase that normally only comes with the Japanese Premium SR range. Cost over a hundred quid, and it's brilliant in terms of storage space for cables, pedals etc when gigging (if you remember what that is?!)

    Therein lies the problem. Under the current lockdown it is illegal to travel for non-essential purposes. Since the forum cannot support or condone illegal activity this item must be posted or couriered.
