If you know how to put it right.. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Trace-Elliot-bass-combo-read-description/333400331831?hash=item4da0355637:g:xagAAOSwzhpd0AXd

Nobody's mentioned the Spectorcore hollow body. What you're after with a modern look..

I thought the price was closer to £7k so you're right, about right.

Sorry Gary, I couldn't resist... So much for the plan to downsize...

Ridiculous that something as nice as this hasn't sold... GLWTS

Everybody should have one of these in their collection...amazingly good basses at virtually no money. It's sitting in a case unused, that's not what Basses are for....anybody want to give this a good home?? Might be open to trades (so much for downsizing)...get in touch.

I'll probably live to regret it...never thought I'd ever say this but "the pick ups were too hot"....

I knew I shouldn't have looked at this thread - massive dose of Sellers Remorse, but TBH it shouldn't just sit in it's case which is pretty much what it did for 90% of the time I owned it. Quick plug...Set up and low action is courtesy of my local luthier, Terry Chapman, who can be relied upon to do a great job on whatever he touches...if you need anything done, get in touch. The only criticism I might have about this bass is the early John East pre-amp which gives far too many great tones which can make it difficult to settle on one - you can be too spoilt for choice. For your timeline - I got the bass here from @ziggydolphinboy. Hope you enjoy it Frank.

Transaction completed....er, that's "sold" in other words.

I have one of those (in silver) on one of my basses. Not the best system I've ever encountered...Can be a bit of a pain to use sometimes - I mainly because the tuners are quite stiff, as you say. I don't use it very often so haven't got a solution for you - it may give me an excuse to get it out of it's case this weekend though.

Stew bought my Yamaha BB414 - it didn't get the use it should have - it'll hopefully get more use with him. Stew's another BCer who makes dealing an absolute pleasure. Lots of correspondence beforehand ensured there were no issues later. Absolutely problem free transaction - as we all like them - No hesitation in trading again in the future - you shouldn't either.

Would love to see how these are progressing...

Nice...
