Ashdown The Saint Roasted 2026 - Shell Pink

Initially bought to continue developing my bass skills and for home recording purposes only; selling off now as I just got my desired bass and don’t fell like picking this up as much.

I’m not one for full-scale basses inherently, but this was a pretty damn good choice when I came across it; the roasted maple neck is wide but very comfortable in the hands—it’s one of the best satin-feeling necks I’ve had—and the P-J pickup combo on this sounds clean as hell, absolutely no complaints sonically from this. The tuners are extremely stable—I only had to tune this once or twice since I had it— and the brass saddle bridge helps to retain stability and string vibration through the instrument; it’s honestly an extremely solid bass guitar.

There’s practically no wear on the body from what I could find, and what I thought was scratches on the pickguard turned out to only exist on a layer of wrapping I forgot to remove: it’s basically new minus the strings—which haven’t rusted over at all!
