This lovely bass isn't getting the playing time is deserves and there a few other basses I'd like to get my hands on... one being Bigwans Lakland!!!!
This is a mid/late 80's bass built by Doug Wilkes, he has recently opened a website www.wilkesguitars.co.uk there are a few basses on show on the website. The basses on the website are very different from this beast, the body shape has some similarities. I believe this one was originally fretted and someone has taken the frets out. It could've been done cleaner but doesnt affect playability or feel. Neck is fast and smooth. Quite heavy, but not overly. I've had for the last 4 years and its been a great bass to play and own.
Has Schaller hardware. I shall have the bass professionally setup and and good service done before its sold
Pictures speak a thousand words...
Looking for something in the region of £1100, im open to offers, would also trade for Sadowsky or Lakland. show me what you have
