the boy

Dave is a good guy. I liked doing business with him it was a flawless trade. He is a bit if a whizz at the old bass building and knows what he wants.

[quote name='bassman2790' timestamp='1333707910' post='1605485'] Body shape looks like a Shine....no carbon neck and worth about £100 [/quote] Amen.

Ah well the decision has been taken out if his hands so theres no problem anymore. If I bought a bass off somebody and it didn't turn up and then I hear it's back with the sender after a few weeks. I would wash my hands and ask for my money back. I don't think it's unreasonable. I know it's not our buddy's fault that things didnt work out but like I said earlier life's a bitch sometimes.

[quote name='Beedster' timestamp='1333483184' post='1602456'] I'm always surprised when someone posts something along the lines ""62 Precision for £25...." as it's always the same with eBay, the serious bidders come in late in the day. The fact that this bass was £500 yesterday means - and clearly meant - nothing in terms of its final price. [/quote] Couldn't agree more. I immediately think why haven't you bought it you div until I open the link to find there's 9 days left on the auction. It seems pointless. Anyway i suppose reading these wild goosers keeps us off the streets or out of the pub so I can't complain.

I would send the money back ASAP. To be fair if the guy Latvian or otherwise waited longer than expected for whatever reason then for the bass to end up back at the sender, it's perfectly reasonable for him to say enough is enough. I know it's not your fault but life sucks sometimes. Take it on the chin pal. Fork up for a quiet life. stick the bass on here you never know.

That decal positioning looks a little skew to me. I also thought fender put the serial number on the neckplate in this era. The shape doesn't convince me either, maybe it's the photos but this guitar doesn't look mmmmmmm authentic. I can't quite put my finger on it, but do you that slightly turned on feeling you get when you see a 70s p bass. Well I'm not getting it when I see this bass. Does that make sense?

Andy and I did a little bit of business lately. This guy is sound as a pound. A real enthusiast who is passionate about what he does which makes him a pleasure to deal with.

This guys been knocking out basses for a while now. I think he's cool. He's got great feedback. He is a cheeky bugger but he's honest. More power to him I say.
