Ha ha! Cheers if I get it and when my shoulder heals I'll pm you!

I probably will as at the moment a shorter scale bass that is light weight would suit my needs - I have a shoulder injury that is taking its time to ease. I was looking for an SG bass but they are a bit expensive unless I can sell my old Precision.

I had one of these for a short time and sold it on, mine was fretless and had the original Schaller hardware (M series smaller type tuners and 3D bridge). The original pickup was one of those eight pole piece rectangular jobs - possibly Schaller or Dimarzio - this one looks to have an EMG Select installed. It may have been a medium scale. I'd already seen this and messaged the seller to see what the scale length is. I got rid of mine because the original pickup had a very low output and sounded weak. Nice looking bass though. Edit - just had a reply it's a 32" scale

[quote name='JapanAxe' timestamp='1393974438' post='2386593'] It reminds me of the scene in the remake of The Fly where the guy comes out of the machine all jumbled up with a load of cables. [/quote] That's exactly what I thought too - Brundle Bass!

I've been using one for years, I play double bass and electric through it and both sound great. I play rock, blues, rockabilly, bluegrass and prog 4,5 & 6 string basses. It's never let me down and is loud enough for most gigs I play without an extension cab or Di through the PA. I have played hundreds of gigs with this little combo and it just keeps going. Best cash I ever spent you really won't regret investing in one of these.

Sadly it didn't happen despite Ed's kind offer of help and making all the pickup arrangements the seller declared it was a rare bass and therefore worth much more. He decided not to sell it at that price anyway..... Bummer.

Here's Jon Camp playing a solo from Ashes Are Burning on the Ibanez version http://m.youtube.com/watch?v=KC-pOC4HJig

Pete was great to deal with, bought my Hofner Violin bass from me. Enjoy the bass thanks again!

Thanks Ed have pm'd you.

Thanks that would be great I'll email him. Again see if its still available and pm you?

Yes I'd certainly have a bash at getting it fixed but I doubt I'll get it now due to logistics - calling all Glasgow based Basschatters!

Well he contacted me and said 'cash and pickup only sorry' so unless anyone here fancies picking it up for me from Glasgow and posting it to Lancaster I'll pay them for it........

I still haven't heard anything so you are probably right!

Yes I made contact but haven't heard anything yet - it's the Antoria equivalent of the Ibanez Black Eagle bass as used by Jon Camp from time to time in Renaissance.

Look at where the trussrod access is.....
