Hmm... any trades? (I'm trying to work out a way to trade for Interpol52's SRF700 - which I'm sure he'd trade for this.)

[quote name='Funky Dunky' timestamp='1474097206' post='3135535'] Identical to my Jim Deacon! [/quote] Quite possibly. Assuming that's not some sort of euphemism, that is...

[quote name='timmyta' timestamp='1474076255' post='3135489'] if this is still available when you come up here I may be stupid enough to buy it [/quote] A very sensible idea

Bump.

Thanks, gentlemen - appreciated. I'll have a look. I do need to get rid of it though - repaired/bodged or not.

Indeed. Just a shame I don't know what I'm doing, eh?

These are better than their price suggests, IMO. One of my guitarists has one of these (now working properly since I had a go at it ). It would make a good starter, project or backup bass - I might have learned to love P necks if I'd got used to one of these when I was first [s]playing[/s] making a noise with a bass.

P-bass body requiring finishing. A partly-shaped but unfinished P-style body with a nicely figured top - possibly bubinga? £30 plus carriage. Some things which should be noted: - The routing for the controls is quite large (and crude); it won't fit a Fender P pickguard. - The bridge holes are not positioned exactly square and would need adjustment - probably filling and redrilling? - One of the pickup mount holes has come through from the front. It's approximately 4mm diameter. looks to be 4mm or so. I've shown this in one of the pics. (Don't look at me, the previous owner done it guv...)

Bass Collection SGC Nanyo SB301. P/J passive four-string, black. Nut is 39mm wide; weight is 3.1kg (6.9lb in old money). This is not labelled as Made In Japan, and therefore is probably from the pre-production series made in Korea when BC were moving production out of Japan. It has a few minor bumps and dings, but nothing nasty. The main issue with it is that the trussrod is maxed out. This may be fixable, but I haven't the skills or the time. The action is rather high as a result. Possibly related, the fingerboard/neck joint is a little too prominent, near the nut. This is stable (I've had the bass since March 2012), but I've not moved the trussrod in this time. Overall, I think it needs attention from someone who knows what they're doing. Thus, sold as a project. There is a whisper on two of the pots when they are moved (not a crackle). It comes with a cheapo gig bag; it will be decently packed, or delivered if it can be arranged (I'm in east Dorset).

If it doesn't sell I may be forced to learn to play it. Please consider my poor neighbours...
