David King D4

I’m selling or trading a David King D4 bass, undoubtedly one of the most unique and impressive instruments I’ve ever played.

This bass offers an almost infinite tonal spectrum. The Bartolini pickups are incredible, with unmatched power and warmth. Special mention goes to the integrated tuner, which is almost invisible and should really be a standard feature on all basses.

The craftsmanship is simply superb, and with its headless design, the bass is extremely compact and lightweight.

It comes with a custom Maxline flight case. There are a few small scratches on the finish, but nothing major. It’s in great condition and built to last.

Here are the (corrected) specs found on the website: kingbass.com/bassdesc/andreas.html
