[quote name='thedontcarebear' post='395790' date='Jan 30 2009, 10:04 PM']Anyone fancy a trade for this Cort B5? Awesome bass, good condition, really light, with a great ash body and Wenge neck! Will trade for something 4 string, or even a fretless (4 string or fretless version of this would be good, but will listen to anything good!) Collection only from Peterborough, don't want to have to travel. Some links....

I played a bundle of Corts in Abu Dhabi when I was out on holiday there recently and they surprised the hell out of me. Unfortunately I have just sold my two fretless: [url="http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=38510"]http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=38510[/url] [url="http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=38376"]http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=38376[/url] and I only have this left: [url="http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=38514"]http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=38514[/url] Which I'm pretty sure you won't be interested in. However, I still have this up for sale: [url="http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=39449"]http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=39449[/url] yes, I know it's a 5, but I thought I'd draw your attention to it nonetheless.

[quote name='geoffbyrne' post='391296' date='Jan 25 2009, 10:17 PM']Le troisieme beump!![/quote] OK, if there's no interest in this I may have to put it on EvilBay come the weekend. G.

OK, so I have an Ibanez RD605 - that's the one with the maple neck, mahogany body (others are basswood) and the Ceramic Seymour Duncan Bassline MM. (I'll do better pics if there's interest) There's absolutely nothing wrong with this bass. The actions tremendous and there's hardly a mark on it and I got a good deal when I bought it. I just can't get on with the tone - it's too 'modern'. To give you an idea of what I like, my main bass is a Hohner 'B' Pro (basically Jazz electrics) with the pickups-in-series-mod, and I'm diggin' it - thick and plenty of mids. For me, the Ibby is a bit low on mids & high on treble. Playing passive helps a bit. However, I also have a small hand and the B Bass has a *narrow* fretboard which fits me very well. So I'm looking at possibly trading the Ibby for something that's: a 5 string has a narrow fretboard is comparable in value (having watched Ebay for a few months these are going for £225 - 250-ish) if active, needs to be 3 band, with, hopefully, a parametric sweep. probably needs to be humbuckers rather than singles. I'm pretty much open to suggestion although a Peavey Cirrus BXP V or a Cort Curbow V would fit the bill nicely. I'll also include this: I bought this to replace the J pup and give the full HH config, but chickened out when it came to routing. This is as it came from the shop, being unmounted. It needs screws, as I've used them on the bass as the old ones were corroded. I also have a routing template for it which will also be included. Something really unusual might interest me away from 5 string, or active (Burns?). I'd rather trade this than sell, but if anyone is desperate to give me the cash would like offers over £200.00 Anyone interested? WHY? Geoff
