Description & Condition
Description & Condition
AV Basses is a high-end Czech brand that gained significant attention when Jamiroquai bassist Paul Turner began using their basses.
The brand was started in the 1990s by professional bassist Ales Vychodil.
At the time, major instrument manufacturers supplied numerous basses to the market, but none could meet his requirements.
To satisfy his own needs, he began building custom basses himself.
In the 2000s, he started OEM manufacturing for boutique brands in Europe and America, showcasing his high level of manufacturing skill.
This model is based on the JB style, but actively incorporates modern specifications.
The body is made of alder, and the neck and fingerboard are made of roasted maple with a bird's eye pattern.
The playing feel gives it a well-worn nuance, like a bass that has been played for many years.
It features Nordstrand Big-J Blade pickups and an original 3-band preamp.
The controls are Volume (with active/passive switch), Balancer, Treble (tone in passive mode), and Middle/Bass.
The tuning keys and bridge are made by HIPSHOT.
The sound boasts beautiful harmonics, along with a wide range and powerful nuance.
It gives the impression of a modern update to the JB, and I feel it's a comfortable instrument for many contemporary professional bassists.
The frets have approximately 80% remaining.
The truss rod is in good condition.
The neck is in good condition.
The body and paintwork are clean overall, with no noticeable scratches.
The electronics are in good condition.
No obvious modifications were observed.
