Hipshot KickAss 4 2000s - Chrome

FOR SALE: Hipshot KickAss™ 4 Bass Bridge – Chrome – Open Box / Never Installed

There are two kinds of bass hardware in this world:

1. Parts engineered to survive decades of punishment.

2. Parts that surrender the moment you tune to drop anything.

The Hipshot KickAss 4 belongs to the first category.

Up for sale is a brand new Hipshot KickAss™ 4 bridge in chrome, opened only for inspection and photos. Never mounted. Never installed. Never subjected to the dark rituals of setup day.

Condition: Open box, unused, essentially new.

For those unfamiliar: the KickAss is what happens when somebody stares at a classic bent-metal bridge and says:

"What if we made this thing actually adjustable… and overbuilt enough to survive a small industrial accident?"

Features:

✔ Individually adjustable saddles for string spacing

✔ Massive sustain potential

✔ Chrome finish bright enough to catch stage lights and bad decisions

✔ Compatible with multiple mounting patterns

✔ Hipshot quality, which means somebody obsessed over this longer than was probably healthy

Perfect for:

🎸 Precision builds

🎸 Jazz builds

🎸 Metal basses

🎸 Frankenstein projects assembled under caffeine and unreasonable optimism

🎸 Upgrading a stock bridge that behaves like stamped tin with aspirations

Included:

• Original Hipshot packaging

• KickAss 4 chrome bridge

• Hardware/accessories as packaged

• Everything shown in photos

This bridge is new, but Reverb demands honesty, so it’s listed as open box because somewhere along the way a human being lifted a lid and looked at it.

That’s the extent of its suffering.

If your bass currently intonates like a shopping cart with a bent wheel, this may be the intervention.

Ships packed like a museum artifact.

Questions welcome.

Reason for selling: Chronic accumulation of premium parts paired with finite lifespan.

Buy accordingly. Your bass has endured enough. 💀🎸
