After much careful consideration I've decided to sell my S3. I've owned it from new since April and it's truly a thing of beauty. It looks fantastic, sounds incredible of course, it plays perfectly and is in absolutely immaculate condition.
So this S3 has all the trimmings. It's got Paramatrix EQ, Tri-Max pickups with the bridge pickup moved 10mm closer to the neck for a little more comfort and warmth. It has a slap ramp because I like the way it softens the look of the end of the fingerboard. I also had Rob make a pickup ramp shaped to fit between the pickup lugs although I haven't attached it.
Woods are alder body with ash facing. The finish is gloss transparent black with a natural faux binding. I wanted sort of a black beauty vibe but with visible wood grain.
Full spec...
Series-3, 5-string, through-neck, fretted 24 frets, 'slap-ramp' on end of fingerboard.
Headless, 34" scale length, dot markers on side of neck only
18mm string spacing
Book-matched figured ash facing
Alder back
Transparent black tint with faux binding
Gloss lacquer
Paramatrix EQ, Tri-Max pickups
Bridge pickup moved 10mm towards the neck
Ramp between pickups to fit in between the lugs of the pickups (made of Richlite to match the fingerboard)
Black hardware
45-65-85-105-130 gauge double ball end strings

It cost £3775 GBP to have this bass made and again it's immaculate condition. As such I'd like to offer it for sale at £3100 GBP. All sensible offers considered.
The bass is located in West London so viewings are welcome.
Happy to ship anywhere in the world at the buyers expense. Collection is of course fine if you're local.
No trade offers please.
Thanks and best wishes to you all.
