A little Tuesday Bump!

Rock n Roll Dave, thanks, you are top man. Enjoy the Westone. As they say in USA, Missing her Already!!!

I have just sold my Westone Thunder 1 to Dave. He contacted me at about 11.00, we agreed for him to come to my house. He was here by 13.00, loved the bass, payed the dosh, Job Done!!! Dave is a pleasure to deal with, a credit to BC. He is friendly, straightforward and loves his basses. Nice on Dave!!!

For sale a lovely 2011 Gibson SG short scale bass for £450 ono. I bought this off Skinnyman a few months ago and it is absolutely lovely. It is in faded/satin cherry and has a nice subtle shine to it. This is a very light bass with a massive sound from the two pick ups. The action is really low and it plays really well. I am only selling because I am going North this weekend to buy a Spector Shorty from another member and this will now be surplus to my needs.

The bass is virtually unmarked, although there is a small mark above the neck pickup which was on it when I bought it and there is a small ding on back which I did on the day I got it. I don't how but I did. I have tried to show them in the pics.

The guitar is currently strung with roundwounds but it also comes with a nearly new set of LaBella flatwounds that it came with.

There is a Gibson hard case with the bass.

I live near Chipping Norton in Oxfordshire and you are more than welcome to come and try it out and have a cuppa. Alternatively, I am happy to ship at the buyers expense.

Thanks for looking

Thank you all for the cracking comments above. Thanks Jezzaboy. The pickup is original and I was told they were DiMarzio but I can see that they may be a Japanese copy, They are still awesome and sound lovely!!

Thank you all again

For sale my 1982 Matsomuko Westone Thunder 1 priced at £100. The bass has been played over its 30 year life and it has the scars to prove it. Some would call it reliced, others road worn, either way it is not perfect. It has dings and scrapes, to the body and neck, not deep but they are there. They don't affect playability which is really nice with a low action. The bass is all original except the control knobs which have been changed in the past to old radio controls. The brass nut and bridge is still there as is the original DiMarzio pick up which sounds awesome. The bass is heavy and made from Ash but that is what gives it the lovely deep and rich tone. There is some fret wear but it has years left in it. All in all a nice almost original example of a good Japanese bass which comes in an old battered but functional hard case.

I live near Chipping Norton in Oxfordshire and you are welcome to come and try it out and have a cuppa. I am happy to ship at the buyers expense.

Thank You. They are really excellent and I have priced it to sell because I am traveling North next week to buy a Spector Shorty from a fellow member so I hope I have good luck with the sale too

Thanks Mate, yes they look lovely and play and sound lovely as well but it has to go.

For sale is my excellent Fender Modern Player Telecaster Bass. I bought this last year off the forum from Lou Short who is a star. I,m only selling it because I have made the switch to short/medium scale and this along with my St,Blues has to go.

The bass is currently strung with Fender Stainless steel 055-105 Flatwounds and sounds lovely, deep and smooth, just what you would expect. It is unmarked and the only small fault is that I lightly knocked the G tuner and it is very slightly bent. This doesn't affect tuning, tuning stability or functionality but it needs to be mentioned. I wasn't going to change it but if you want to a new generic tuner is about £5 I think.

The bass comes in a good quality Fender gig bag and can be shipped at the buyers expense. Forgot to mention, I have changed the chrome knurled control knobs to plastic because I like to see where they are set but the originals will be replace when it is sold.

I live near Chipping Norton in Oxfordshire and you are more than welcome to come and try it and have cuppa.

Thanks for looking

Final Bump and then she goes under the bed!! Too good to not be used but Hey Ho

Can someone please get back to me. I have tried again, third time since yesterday to post an ad but no luck.

Thanks

Mike(Pestie)

Hello

I have tried twice today to put up a [b]Fender Modern Player Tele bass [/b]and it has not appeared. I have done what I normally do and even previewed it and then it disappears.

There was a message kept coming up to put a for sale price and I had done this in the Topic Title. The trade or sale price box and within the item.

I have paid my donation to allow me to post for sale items.

Can you help please, the ad was worded like the bold type above but I can't find it anywhere.

Thanks

Mike

Just sold a CV Precision to Pete. He is an excellent person to deal with. The money was in the bank in record time. Pete is a credit to BC, a person you can trust. I recently bought an excellent Jap medium scale Jazz from him. Again, the transaction was perfect, nice one Pete.

Deal with Pete confidently, he is a star and a pleasure to deal with.
