     SOLD! I was one of the first Elrick dealers in the country around the year 2000 and sold this bass new in 2002. It just came back to me a few weeks ago from the original owner! It's only got a few minor scuffs from player wear & handling and the flame walnut top & headstock are as beautiful as ever. You don't see many walnut ones around and now that Rob Elrick is selling directly, the price of a new one is easily $4500+ with case.


     Light weight and perfect balance have always been Elrick trademarks and uncompromising tone can certainly be added to that list. This bass weighs only 7 lbs 7 oz and is a dream to hold and play. It has a gorgeous bookmatched flame walnut top but equally nice is the bookmatched swamp ash body. It's got depth & figure you wouldn't expect. The control cavity cover is precision cut from the same ash so even that is bookmatched, too! The neck is bolt-on maple with a pao ferro fretboard, 24 frets and no face dots only side markers. I almost forgot to mention that this has a 35" scale! It has a zero fret for perfect intonation and great sustain. The wide, flat headstock design also adds to the balance and sustain of the bass.


     Tone is covered by (2) Bartolini wide-aperture J pickups and an 18-volt Bartolini preamp with Volume, Pan, Bass Mid & Treble controls. There are mini switches for mid-frequency and active/passive switching. The USA Hipshot bridge & tuners are machined black aluminum with recessed Straploks. This bass is very refined yet can dial up BIG tone when you need it. Includes the original tolex G&G hard case.
