Hi there, are you accepting trades at all? Possibly with cash your way?

Hello, are you accepting trades?
-
I had one of these for a little while. They are so good for price and the quality on them really betrays how affordable they are. Even given their age, everything feels and sounds modern on them. Good luck with the sale!

Believe it or not, I bought this guitar to learn on and I've enjoyed playing it for a few hours but realised that it's not really my style! It's in mint condition (although I'm happy to take more pics) and comes with the official padded soft case.
Am happy to consider trades (with £ my way or your way) for any music gear.
Also happy to send at buyer's risk (I can source the proper box for it) or collection from B23 Birmingham.

Does it have a gigbag/case? and does the price include shipping?
It'll come with a gigbag (Thomann) and price doesn't include shipping.

I literally just bought this a few days ago and have immediately spotted something else that I'd like to buy. 😁 I would consider trades but am aiming for a sale.
I purchased this because I thought it looked cool but, when I received it, I was more blown away by how nice it was to play a 30' scale bass. It sounds great and has been looked after very well. I originally purchased this from Chris at Alpher Instruments, and so it's recently (couple of weeks ago) had brand new 'Newtone' strings and a complete setup.

I remember seeing that bass at bass direct and being fairly tempted.
Well, they were kind enough to at least let me know that it went to somewhere in Europe.
Anyone got a map and some darts...? 😄

I'm sure I'm not the first, nor will I be the last, but a few years ago I committed a grave mistake and sold a custom bass. I had some personal stuff going on at the time (it was my only instrument) that forced the sale and, in retrospect, I wish I'd found another way as I miss it dearly and am wondering if anyone might have any ideas of how to track it down.
The Bass
The bass is/was an Alpher Instruments Mako Elite 5-string - scroll down to the bottom for pics.
What I've Found (so far)
After I sold it, it later appeared for sale at Bass Direct. At the time (this was also several years ago) I didn't have the funds to buy it back. The listing can still be found here, and I've recently contacted Bass Direct directly, to see if they may be able to help out.
I know it's a huge stretch, but I'm desperate enough to check often and thought I'd see if anyone's gone through something similar (reassurance is appreciated)

This seems awfully cheap. I have had both this one, and the 'first generation' one (which I still have, because my wife bought it for me) and they're both incredible. Really good for upgrading too.

Sealed. £32 delivered in the UK.

For sale is my Ibanez SRMS805 in 'Deep Twilight'. Condition is 9.5/10 and there are no issues. Setup is medium-low with LaBella RX-S5 strings.
I shall unashamedly paste th description from the original listing - although I will absolutely vouch for the huge difference the upgrades make (I have an original SR fanned fret that I'm keeping, due to it being a gift):
"I bought this new last year and stripped out its Ibanez preamp and its seriously average chinese licensed Bartolini BH2 pickups out and installed US Classic Bass Soapbars and a 3 band Bartolini HR-5.2AP/918 preamp. Configuration has changed from stock to make this the ultimate tone machine and works as follows:-
Volume - Push Pull Active/Passive
Blend
Treble
Mids - Push Pull Frequency Selector
Bass
Toggle Switch 1 - Series/Coil Tap/Parallel Bridge Pickup
Toggle Switch 2 - Series/Coil Tap/Parallel Neck Pickup
If you've played a stock SRMS805 before, this one will play the same but tonally it really is an entirely different animal. Its fantastic and the array of different tones you can get from all the different coil arrangements is wonderful."
Collection from Birmingham for £750 or willing to ship at buyer's cost. No trades.

This is bass is fantastic, and one of the best of its run.
If you want to hear it, I demo'd the whole set of six a few months ago.
Amazing demo - I lusted after the black one as soon as I saw it!

Just had a smooth trade with Mr. Prime and had absolutely no issues. Comms were perfect and bass arrived in good time and was exactly how it was described.

Hi there, don't suppose you have any interest in the 90s Squier I currently have for sale (with cash your way)?
-
Love the colour. Are you considering trades for anything short scale? It'd be money your way but am looking to trade my 90s Squier MusicMaster
-
I have the original model of this as my main bass and love the tone, but those are some hefty upgrades!
Mine is the most playable Ibanez I've ever owned - good luck with the sale.

Nice to see a custom shop that's actually been played!
Good luck with the sale.

Assuming you're not accepting trades? I'm also part of the 'currently going through a remortgage' gang and loving life at the moment (not)...
