Bridge pickup pics! Note to self - make sure to take out tiny black screw that has jumped onto the magnet. Then ask girlfriend how it got there. Is this real? Help me Obi Jon Kenobi, you're my only hope!

Hi Jon, I reckon the finish is a transparent blue over clear. Where it has flaked off it's revealed a glossy clear layer. No idea who did it or when. The height adjuster screws fit fine - but they didn't when I played with this saddle-section on another faker bridge. I guess this one has more accurate dimensions? Off to take pics of the bridge pup!

FINAL PRICE DROP BEFORE CONSIGNMENT OR EBAY- NOW SOLD I bought this bass 3 years ago, sold it one year ago to my girlfriend, and now it's back, because she has double bass repair bills to pay, and no basschat account! Some history - the previous owner sent me a picture of this with 'CMI' on the headstock. Unfortunately this had been scratched off by the time it got to me, so I've replaced the TRC with an 'interesting' one from a man in Italy. I'm told it's not real, and I believe this, but it looks really nice and somehow balances the bass well visually. I tried plain white and it never looked right. Similarly, I've replaced the pickups and the saddles-section of the bridge (what do you call that?) with parts that sellers on here (pickups, a long time ago) and eBay (saddles) tell me are genuine Rick. But I can never be sure - I don't have an original to compare. The tuners are also replacements - when I got it there were mini schallers fitted, two of them upside-down! These are far-eastern generic things. Good points: The thru-neck The colour (!) The thick gloss on the fretboard The inlays The sound Bad points (all by a previous owner!): The bridge has been lowered by routing underneath, in order to make the action lower. The rout is fine, but it has left the finish messy around the bridge The bridge pickup surround has been cut back to allow a lower action I don't like the knobs There's a thin crack in the scratchplate Only one truss rod Given the additions and the unique colour I'm looking for SOLD. I'm in london, and am happy to meet pretty much anywhere in this fair (?) city for handover.

I bought this guitar second-hand a couple of months ago as a fun way to try out a 12-string. It turns out that I'll never get the chance to play it (because I love my new 6-string so much that I have foresworn all other guitars). This is a Gordon Smith, 24.75 inch scale, single humbucker, recently re-strung with rotosounds. It looks like a mahogany body and one-piece set maple neck. Apologies for the pics - the full-length ones seem to have come out pretty dark. The body shots look good, though, and really reflect the real colour. A few BCers own Gordon Smiths (I think) and I've never read a bad word about them. I think the new price of a guitar like this would be over £500, and this guitar is in really good condition - there are some barely-noticeable scuffs on the bottom of the guitar and a couple of marks on the pickguard. I'm looking for [b]£200[/b] for this. I'm based in London and can meet centrally most days. I'll happily post it, which will add a bit to the price.

[u]http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=320459227688 [/u] ==================================================== I love basses with meaty single coil pickups, through-necks and passive circuitry. I also have too many of them - quite a few never get to come out to play. I also spend too much money on gear, so have a few debts to pay! So please buy this Ibanez Musician bass. It looks amazing (from the front) and has quite a few bangs and scrapes (on the top, bottom and back). It also sounds like the business. Admittedly I've only ever played it on the back pickup, with a pick, but those Talkbass fellas reckon you can get loads of sounds out of it (even without the active circuitry of an MC924). The serial number has it down as a 1980. One of the knobs looks like it's non-original. Here's the original Ibanez catalogue to tell you all about it.

As ever, feel free to hit me with trades, especially for 1x12 cabs, firewire interfaces, lightweight power amps, or anything with an aluminium neck. Can you let all this delicious Ash, Mahogany, Maple, Walnut and Rosewood escape?

BUMP. It looks like I'll have to sell me beloved mini-Devi pedal. And I've cut the price of the POG.
