    1977`SHERGOLD MODULATOR 2 BASS( WITHDRAWN TO EBAY)

    in Basses For Sale

    axl33,

    Of course shipping from Aus is not the end of the world, but it is important enough to make clear to prospective buyers. To be honest, you're a new seller, from a different country, and it hasn't helped to be defensive and unforthcoming with information (location and full description not in first post). Someone in the UK may well be interested in your bass, but it's important to research all the costs [u]first[/u] to put a buyer's mind at ease. Especially when we're so distrustful of our own courier companies, and it costing about £40 to send anything insured within the UK. Just imagine the potential ensuing chaos if someone just said "I'll have it" to your initial post.

    Anyway, play nice, everyone.


    Best of luck with the sale, axl33.

    Hey uggy (is that right?). Welcome to Basschat.

    I think your experience on other instruments (especially drums) will be a big help. So all is not lost. Music is music. I'm slightly partial to bass, but I don't mind so long as people are making it :)

    [quote name='axl33' post='202577' date='May 20 2008, 03:39 AM']Yes very sorry everybody about price but i wanted to see what kind of offers i am going to get.This is my first post so please have some patience. Does anybody know how much its worth. It is in good working order.Sounds & plays great eveything working & original no problems at all. The paint is cracking on the body & it has belt rash. The neck is perfect & straight as,frets are good too. Original Schaller tuners working perfectly.Bridge is Shergold special with perspex.Its made in 77 . Give me some offers cause i really dont know how nuch they are worth but i know its over 30 years old & working fine. You can gig with this bass the way it is theres nothing wrong. Neck p/u has 1 screw missing & phasing in/out selector casing has little crack in it but none of these things effect the sound or feel of the bass. The electronics are all working good eveything original. So make some offers people cause i may post it on Ebay if nothing happens here, i am in Australia but should not have problems shipping it . Thank you Bass players & collectors.[/quote]
    I think you should edit this into your first post. And make it doubly clear that you're in Aus.

    gl with the sale.

    Sorry to hear about this, John. I'm watching your thread with concern, and hope that you get it sorted quickly and calmly.
    The first thing I do in that sort of situation is take a long walk. That way nothing/no one around the house gets broken.

    Keep in mind that a bass has a lot of traveling to do.

    A set up costs about £25.

    It's the quality of the materials that's important.

    It's not the manufacturer who I first chastise when a bass isn't setup right in-shop.
