    The bass is SOLD.

    G&L L-1000 from 1983[i] (I belive judging by the serial number and headstock design)[/i], made in USA. Old headstock, mahogany body and one piece maple neck. The bass plays and sounds sweet with low action and huge output, it has the original parts but has been modified – the previous owner added a bridge J pickup and has stripped the body. My local guitar tech removed the added pickup, filled the hole, repainted it in the original ivory color, polished the frets and gave it a super nice set up. The neck laquer has crazings and bumps.

    Apart from the above it is a joy to play, the truss rod, electronics, bridge all work perfectly, the action is super nice and it can get quite low, plenty of life left in the frets. Weight is about 4,5kg on my home scale, so not that bad for a vintage G&L.
    I will ship from Bulgaria so there will be no import taxes for EU buyers. No case but will be securely packed.

    Feel free to ask me any additional questions or demand additional photos/videos. Delivery usually takes around 7 working days to most of EU. My feedback can be found [url="http://basschat.co.uk/topic/125066-feedback-for-fend3r/page__p__2610067__hl__fend3r__fromsearch__1#entry2610067"]HERE[/url]

  2. Traded, no longer available.

    1965 Höfner 500/1 Beatle bass, beautiful bass with lots of mojo. Usual problems for the model have been sorted - neck has been reset and pickups rewound professionaly by a luthier, everything work as it should - electronics, truss rod, tuners, etc.

    The bass is a joy to play with low action and delivers the famous "tic-tac" sound. A true players instrument that you won't fear to take to a gig.

    I have two almost identical beatle basses so am willing to trade this one for a vintage or custom shop Fender, preferably up to early 70s precisions, Fullerton reissue precisions, Custom shop precisions, even a vintage jazz bass, pre-EB MucisMan, Bravewood, Dingwall, Sadowsky, Wal, F bass, Mike Lull can be taken into consideration, part trades or straight trades can be negotiated.

    Sold!!!

    Pretty nice condition for its age, maple neck, ash body, super nice flame going on at the neck. Relatively light for a 70’s P (4kg / 8,82lbs on my home scale), 42,5mm at the nut, meaty and super comfortable neck profile, truss rod works properly, action is set quite low and nice. It is a tone monster – with round wounds it growls amazingly, with flats it has a super deep thump and fits super nice in a band setting.

    The story – I bought it from the original owner and its all original with the exception of an “on/off switch” that has been added in the 80’s – it can be seen near the jack. What’s interesting and rather unique is that the truss rod plug is not the usual walnut but some other lighter wood. All the dings, scuffs and swirls are reflected in the detailed pics, in flesh it actually looks better but I have tried to capture all the little imperfections.

    Detailed photos of the bass can be found here: [url="https://picasaweb.google.com/105844066118758229046/6279358268709497809?authuser=0&authkey=Gv1sRgCL-7h9nYz_zBZQ&feat=directlink"]https://picasaweb.go...feat=directlink[/url]

    Given the above my price is SOLD plus actual shipping. I know that this is more at the high end of the market, but the bass is just really that good and I am having second thoughts about selling it, so either it sells at this price or I keep it. The original case is long gone, so I will buy a new one for the shipping – your choice of lightweight semi-hard case or black tolex generic one. It will be shipped in the case and well packed in cardboard. I will ship from Bulgaria so there will be no import taxes for EU buyers. Money transfers through PayPal or bank.

    Feel free to ask me any additional questions or demand additional photos/videos. Delivery usually takes around 7 working days to the UK and most of EU.

    Trade wise I will be interested in earlier alder body precisions, custom shop precisions or Fullerton reissue precisions, Ampeg B15 or B15N with cash adjustments.

    Regards

  4. Hi, thanks for the interest, I am based in Bulgaria and the bass is unfotrunately on hold until the end of the next week for a local trade that's pending. If that falls through, I'll let you know.
    Regards
