Nordstrand Acinonyx Bass Dakota Red

Description

Excellent lightly used condition, only one tiny paint chip in neck pocket from when the bass had a set up. Plastic is still on the pickups.
Nice and lightweight with a fast satin short scale neck, it’s so easy to play.
Comes with spare (used) black scratchplate, manual for info/settings and the Nordstrand official mute which accomplishes some cool upright bass tones.
Collection in Norwich, not looking for trades. Thanks.

Blurb from the website:
Lovingly nicknamed the "Cat Bass” in the workshop, The Acinonyx is an insanely cool, somewhat weird, and deceptively menacing instrument. This bass has all of the playability and phat tone you would expect from a short scale, plus the added fun of the tone control switches. Tone choices are available with a push of a button. Go “All In” by punching all of the buttons at once, which puts the pickups in series mode resulting in a a loud, thick, and punchy tone. The 1 over 3 headstock may seem unusual, but it provides straight string pull while honoring the original aesthetic of the Goya Panther.
