NEW FBass BN5 5-String Bass Guitar Ash/Maple Brownburst Gloss finish, FBass Gig Bag

http://www.fretspot.com/in-stock-now/new-fbass-bn5-5-string-bass-guitar-ashmaple-brownburst-npf-fbass-gig-bag/

This is a BRAND NEW F Bass BN5 in a brown burst gloss finish. 34.5″ scale, maple fingerboard, and sounds AMAZING!
Comes with a great FBass Gigbag! Weighs only 9lbs 11oz.

Feel free to contact me if you have a trade in, or would like to work out a special deal!

This bass produces a thick rich sound reminiscent of a good vintage tone with a sweet rather than harsh high end; however, retaining the ability to cut through a mix. The addition of the very natural sounding preamp allows for variability towards more modern sounds. The two separate volumes allow you to blend the two pickups in any amount of each, not limiting you to the fixed levels of a blend control. The passive tone control functions whether in passive or active mode enabling it to modify a different set of frequencies than the ones affected by the active tone controls. These fretted basses are well balanced standing or sitting and are a joy to play.

The BN6 in particular has an extremely sleek feel and is one of the easiest six string basses to play. These fretted basses are well balanced standing or sitting and are a joy to play.

FFFUUUUNNNKY Fibenare!

Fibenare Global Bolt-on 5-String Bass – Poplar Burl Top, Flame Maple Neck – HSC

Three brothers make up the Fibenare team. They make everything in-house, by hand! In addition to the woodworking, they make their own pickups, preamps, bridge – even the case! The case is the best case I’ve seen coming with a boutique bass – made of strong but lightweight fiberglass, it offers lots of protection in an easy to carry format.

The bass is an amazing instrument! The second you pick it up the quality of the workmanship is apparent. Everything fits together perfectly, and feels sooooo gooooood!

The electronics sound amazing! In addition to the volume and blend, and bass-mid-treble controls, you also have an active/passive switch, and then two coil selection switches that allow you to choose between series, parallel, or single coil.

Amfisound Hellbass

http://www.fretspot.com/in-stock-now/amfisound-hellbass-6-string-bass-sub-octave-ea-strings-one-of-a-kind-handmade-in-finland/

I promise you that you’ve never experienced anything quite like this before! Amfisound is a small workshop in Finland that makes all of their guitars and basses by hand. The workmanship is top notch, as are the materials. But what really sets the bass apart is the dual scale length, and the tuning options.
Essentially the concept is to have a four string bass with a 32″ scale – this makes it very easy to play, and all of the notes are punchy and full sounding with the shorter scale. Then, you have two strings that are a 36″ scale. These are designed to go all the way down to Low E and Low A – an octave below the normal E & A strings! You can also tune them up to any other pitch you like as well.
The wait time is about 10-12 months and sells for $8000 brand new. Skip the wait and get this amazing bass now at a huge savings!
Amfisound “Hellbass” Bass Specs:

Handmade in Finland
Tuning: Low E, Low A, E, A, D, G
Neck: Laminated Maple and Purple Heart with Dual Carbon Fiber Rod Reinforcement
Body: Swamp Ash
Top: Quilted Maple
Fingerboard: Ebony and Purple Heart
Scale: 36˝ on Two Lower Strings, 32˝ on Regular Four
Pickups: Bartolini Single Coils
Electronics: Glockenklang Preamp
Bridge: Hipshot
Tuners: Gotoh
Straplocks: Schaller
String Gauges: .050, .070, .090, .110, .135, .175
