Hi All,

For sale or Trade, my Sandberg Bullet Booster unlined Fretless four string bass.

Feel, and sound wise, its very like the Gary Willis fretless basses although obviously four string rather than five. Slightly more woody sound, probably due to the rosewood rather than ebonol fretboard. Plenty of the usual mwah sounds too.

Features:
- 34" scale unlined rosewood fingerboard
- Ash body, natural
- Single Sandberg pickup at the bridge, I think they are Delano but not sure.
- 3 band eq, with active/passive pullup on the volume and separate treble, mid and bass controls.
- Strung with Thomastik flatwound strings - the business for fretless.

Mint condition, if you look hard, theres a very very slight ding on the upper edge of the neck by the low F. Its so small, I couldnt get it to come out in the photos.

Pics below and any other questions, please ask.

Offers around the £450 mark. Thomann have them for £800 new.

The hard case shown has a bash in the corner so I'd be happy to include another case in better condition or sell without case at all for £425. IMPORTANT TO NOTE that the bash was made while shipping another bass - NOT this one.

Delivery and tryout wise, I am based near Kingston on Thames, Surrey and work near Canary Wharf. We have relatives in Cheshire and in Devon so meetups can be arranged and I'm happy to deliver within a reasonable distance for petrol money subject to negotiation.

Would rather not ship if it can be avoided, but I do have a box and packing that would do the trick if thats our last option. Shipping charges obviously not included in the price.

Cheers, John

Dude, Can you tell me the string spacing at the bridge please....

Pleasure to deal with, sorry couldnt stay longer - we could have nattered for hours.

Oh yeah and a great swap with a 55-02 for my Corvette $$. I'm delighted with the swap and I'm glad the 'vette has gone to a good home.

[quote name='benwhiteuk' post='449909' date='Mar 30 2009, 08:55 PM']where abouts are you mate?[/quote]

RayFW, You are right. 16.5mm and 17mm is a stretch with B and G strings very close (too close?) to the edge of the neck.

Cheers, John



[quote name='RayFW' post='449142' date='Mar 30 2009, 12:43 AM']I think the 5 er is 16.5mm with a possible 17mm (ish) by moving the saddles[/quote]

Hi All,

Selling my Warwick Corvette $$ 5 string. 2007 model.

Its a lovely bass with an incredible range of tones, but I find the string spacing a bit narrow for me.

Pics as below, more info on request. Comes with the original Warwick gig bag, the Warwick manual and truss rod key..

Mint condition

Looking for £550. Trades considered for five stringers with wider string spacing.

Edit/Update at 14:45. 30-03-2009, Just to be clear, none of the stuff in the background is included in the sale (the Roberts Radio, the cricket ball, and the Aeroplane made by my 3 year old daughter etc etc) and I've decided I'd really like to keep the Comfort Strapp.

I will substitute the Comfort strapp with a (slightly cheaper) alternative.
