    For comparison - to show what a bargain this bass is:-


    [url="http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/221146649074?ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1423.l2649"]http://www.ebay.co.u...984.m1423.l2649[/url]

    Yep - I'd seen that, optimistic pricing based on current market prices but these are great basses.
    I'm probably going to withdraw this and keep it as a museum piece.

  2. Looking for some input on a Korean Squire P Bass I have for sale on here.

    I got this recently in a roundabout trade for an early 90's Korean guitar.

    It's a 1993 Fender Squire Precision MIK - Maple Neck and smaller funky (or horrible depending on your view) tuners.
    Link to sale below.

    Looking for input on opinions on these basses - particularly around the pricing I've put on it.
    I've had a good google around and not found much info.

    Thanks In Advance

  3. [color=#000000]Arrgghh - not sure I want to be doing this but I need to make space and funds available for a good honest 5 stringer.[/color]

    [color=#000000]So…..[/color]

    [color=#000000]Up for Sale is my Warwick Dolphin Pro II in a Red Burst Finish.[/color]
    [color=#000000]Pretty rare these, I believe only 1000 or so were made.[/color]
    [color=#000000]I’ve had a good look around online and not found any other images of one in this finish.[/color]

    [color=#000000]Truss rod cover says Dolphin Pro I, but as a bolt on this is a Dolphin Pro II[/color]

    [color=#000000]Lovely, slim maple neck. [/color]
    [color=#000000]Wenge Fretboard[/color]
    [color=#000000]Ash body so fairly lightweight[/color]
    [color=#000000]Same electronics as in the high end Warwick’s from the time. Active / Passive Option.[/color]

    [color=#000000]Has a stick on FretFX fret light system installed. Easily removable should you wish.[/color]
    [color=#000000]Battery compartment attached to the back of the headstock and then the strip of lights runs down the top of the fretboard.[/color]

    [color="#000000"]Withdrawn, what was I thinking?[/color]

  4. SOLD - - -

    The cull continues.........an unplanned purchase has left me needing to reduce the collection and to claw back some cash.

    1993 Fender Squier Precision MIK in a very nice creamy white colour.
    Maple Neck and the funky smaller tuning pegs.

    It's a peach, barely a mark on it - I just don't use it as I mainly play over the bridge pickup, which this obviously does not have!!
    Tons of the classic P bass sound.

    Happy to listen to offers, and happy to take any input on the pricing, higher :) or lower :huh: .....
    Unsure where to pitch the price as a '93 Korean Squier balanced with excellent condition and (to my mind) more desirable maple neck.

  5. I’m putting this one back up for sale as I think it will have more chance of selling than the metallic pink (!) one that I’ve also got.
    As the more expensive basses I’ve put up for sale have not sold and with too much incoming recently something needs to be moved on.

    Most people on here know about these basses and for my money they are the best £ for £ bass your money can buy you.
    Almost certainly one of the most under rated and under appreciated basses out there.
    Superb quality, superb range of tones, very playable basses.

    Transparent Red finish, a couple of dinks and dents here and there but nothing that is serious at all.
    The Transparent red finish highlights the lovely grain on this bass.

    This electrics / wiring loom have recently been upgraded with a kit from Basschat’s Ki0gon. Controls are Volume/Volume/Tone/Tone.
    This is an excellent upgrade and has taken an already great bass to another level, definitely a worthwhile and significant upgrade.
    I have kept and bagged up the original electrics and will also include these in the sale.

    Once this is sold I will be ordering another kit to drop into my metallic pink(!) SB301 - that’s how good the kit is!

    Any trial or inspection welcome and happy to send more pics or information.
    More than happy to ship also.

    [b]Price is £175.00, remember this includes the upgraded electrics and also the stock electrics.[/b]
    [b]NOW GONE........[/b]

    Feel free to PM me with any trade bait, +/- cash either way...

    Thanks For Looking

  6. Good News: I saw them in Manchester on Friday and though they were very good indeed, up until the last few months I've avoided Level 42 as the songs and bass playing used to do nothing for me :ph34r: my old opinion on Mark King being - impressive technique but is it musical?, also I hesitate to put this but some of the songs are 'cheesy'..again, runs for cover :ph34r: , of course I was basing this on the mainstream stuff and not the early stuff.
    .....now a bit older and wiser I've come around to it as I was looking for other strings to add to my bow (so to speak).
    The songs do stand up to the test of time in a cheesy / retro sort of way.
    I though Mark King was on top form playing wise and banter / interaction with the crowd.

    Bad News: I missed Down and Orange Goblin at the Academy as they were on the same night.

  7. I've had too much incoming recently so something needs to be moved on.

    Westfield P Bass Copy - actually a very good Thumpy P bass in it's own right.
    I believe all the hardware is Wilkinson.
    I rate these as a good / very good back up or starter bass, certainly a significant step above the Encore / Jim Deacon type of things.

    Came to me in a little bit of a state but since having it I've cleaned it up, sorted out the action, new strings, new volume control knob.

    Price is £50 - NOW SOLD

    Any trial or inspection welcome

  8. [b]Warwick[/b][b] Corvette Proline 1992 - Lined Fretless Defretted - Nirvana Black[/b]

    Another bass that I don’t really want to be selling but I’ve had too much incoming recently so something needs to be moved on.

    A nice earlyish Warwick Corvette, Lovely slim all Wenge neck

    Defretted and a very good job it is too.

    As the pictures show there are some signs of use on the body but nothing serious just marks from being well played.
    The bass is 20 years old!
    Regularly waxed since I’ve had it.
    The bass has also had new strings and recently been set up by local Guitar Tech Steve Robinson, intonation is perfect.
    GONE GONE GONE

  9. [b]Warwick[/b][b] Corvette Standard Bubinga 2009 Active/Passive - German Made[/b]

    Another bass that I don’t really want to be selling but I’ve had too much incoming recently so something needs to be moved on.

    Superb bass, absolutely excellent condition, lovely slim neck.
    A damn good looking bass as well - probably the best grain I’ve seen on these Bubinga Corvettes - and it looks even better in the flesh.
    Regularly waxed and comes with the usual Warwick goodies.

    SOLD
    Any trial / inspection welcome.
