S. Martyn Freedom Headless 34" scale 17.5mm spacing 6 string 7.2lbs - Satin Flamed Maple Burst.

Incredible instrument. By far the best sounding and playing 6 string I’ve played.
A perfect blend of vintage warmth, modern articulation, and incredible comfort. Very well built, and a joy to play. Lots of tone options. There is a switch to switch between the pickup coils. So you can get a super jazz bass (single coil) sound, a big humbucker sound, or a Ken smith-type sound. It does it all.

Couple of small blemish's on head stock (shown in photos). Everything else is in excellent condition.

Tone Profile:

The hollowed cedar body gives this bass a very open, airy, and organic voice with excellent resonance. Expect a warm low end, rich low-mid presence, and a natural acoustic character that responds beautifully to your playing dynamics.

The 3-piece Marfim (ivory) neck adds stability, attack, and note definition, keeping the instrument focused and articulate without sounding overly bright.

The roasted Bolivian rosewood fingerboard contributes warmth, smooth highs, and a complex midrange, adding a refined, broken-in feel right from the first note.

What tones can you achieve?

• Deep, warm vintage tones reminiscent of classic soul, Motown, and jazz recordings.
• Tight and punchy fingerstyle sounds for modern gospel, pop, and R&B.
• Articulate fusion and progressive tones with excellent note separation.
• Smooth fretboard response for melodic soloing and chordal playing.
• Warm, woody fretless like character when playing softly.
• Aggressive growl and midrange punch when digging in with heavier attack.
• Balanced slap tones with a rounded top end that never becomes harsh

Playing Experience:

The hollowed construction makes this bass exceptionally lightweight and comfortable while increasing resonance and sustain.

The 34" scale offers familiar tension and excellent string definition, while the 17.5mm spacing strikes a perfect balance between speed, comfort, fingerstyle precision, and effortless slapping.
