No, still available...

In fact I've had to stop playing it- it sounds so good, I forget the merry hell it gives my thumb...

Well it is definitely worth looking at - it has that lovely worn-in, battle scarred veteran look to it (and a tone to match).

Me and Jarvis are sorted for E's.

Fair do's...!

Can I see your certificate, please sir? I'm a dB newbie, but it's certainly comfortable to play, and easy to get around. Definitely less intimidating than I'd imagined.

I've only owned this for two months, bought from Ash of this parish. Oddly, I have to sell it for the same reason Ash did- left hand problems. Not the fault of the bass, just work-related RSI in my wrist. I didn't think it would be as much of a problem as it has turned out to be... A sad sale, as it sounds lovely. Gut strings on the D and G chock full of tone. It has a lovely warm overall tone. Selmer, mid 20th century (Ash's guesstimate). It's had a couple of pictured luthier repairs. I've added position markers up to the 1st octave. The attached tuner is very helpful, and the piezo pick-up works fine. It comes with a bow (no idea of the quality), rosin, a soft case, and all the spare strings pictured. Again, I've no clue as to how used they are- they look fine, but haven't tried them on the bass. I'll also throw in the pictured bar stool I bought for sitting practice. Personal pickup will be needed - I'm near Barrow, but willing to meet halfway, depending on where you are. Very happy to answer any questions I've forgotten to cover, and here are the pics:

This might just be a passing whim, but I'd be interested in a part trade with a Squier bass vi (or HB equivalent). Check your cupboards and wardrobes, would you? Thank you kindly...
