Hi Ariston, of course! Why not?

[quote name='pierreganseman' timestamp='1390139261' post='2341792'] top top top seller [/quote] Thx Pete! I'm glad you're happy with my old Sting Ray

[quote name='SMV' timestamp='1390157915' post='2342119'] Great video! Unfortunately can't afford to make you an offer, but just to say great playing :-) [/quote] Thanks Matt, that's very kind of you

Hi Dave, thanks, but I'm not

Hi everybody, I ordered the bass in April 2013 and I got it brand new in November 2013 because I needed a bass with vintage vibe for a musical project I was working on. Unfortunately that project came to a fail in the first days of 2014, so I decided to sell the bass cause I don't need it anymore. It's been played live in 3 gigs and 2 months of reharsals so I'd say is in excellent condition. I call it PallaDingo 'cause it's fiesta red with tortoise shell pickguard (£ 45 option).; Other specs: alder body, morado fb and Hipshot X-tender on E string (£ 85), straplocks, Dingwall original gigbag and full set of adjustment wrenches. Price Drop [size=5][b]1700£[/b][/size] (2090 €) Here's the link to a video I recorded with the PallaDingo: [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uqWLHks-O_U[/media]

Here's for sale the last of my "straight" basses, for I fell in love with my Dingwall Sklar and it came natural playing only and always that one (and a Dingwall Super P has just been ordered)! This is a 1979 Fender Jazz Bass (serial S885.... could be '78 but pots and P/U stamped early '79 ). I got it from a trade more than a year ago; at the time I owned a '66 Dots& Bindings JB but, when this neglected '79 came home, I found I liked its voice more than the old '66, which soon I decided to sell (call me crazy, but that's the truth)! I'll immediately tell you about the negative things: - 1 pot not original; - 1 neck screw not original; - no OHSC; - body lacquer finish no longer shiny, probably due to cleaning with aggressive products by previous owner; - heavy weight (I'll be more precise, but very likely over 5 kg). Here are some pictures: [attachment=133817:20130429_193755.jpg] [attachment=133818:20130429_193807.jpg] [attachment=133819:20130429_193852.jpg] [attachment=133820:20130429_194053.jpg] [attachment=133821:20130429_194123.jpg] [attachment=133822:20130429_194313.jpg] [attachment=133823:20130429_194326.jpg] But I think there are positive things too: - the bass is a great player and slapper (but don't ask me slap samples 'cause I'm a goat); - great variety of tones, full and rich voice. - perfectly working "electronics". - perfect neck, straight as an arrow and with very low action; - since it's not a collector item, you won't be afraid to take it out for gigs and really play it; - at almost the price of an american reissue, you get a better sounding bass that probably won't loose its value in the future. I'm afraid this is the only vid I recorded with the bass: [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kGqdRsnMBrs[/media] Requested Price:[color=#008000][b][size=5] 1.250 £ (or 1.450 €) [/size][/b][/color]- Free Shipping in Europe (Ritter Gig Bag). If suitable, I can also provide a good selection of new strings at very reasonble price (DR, the best for this bass IMHO, Fodera and Elixir): I will use them nomore with my Dingwall basses... No trade, please. Feel free to contact me for everything! Alessio
