This or my Orange TB rig must go. Letting the market decide!

Thanks to @G-Lo we have now reached 250 lovely donors and £6700 🚀

Update, as I am sure all you kind donors will want to know the money is on it's way to help Andy, Iris and family. So I pressed the button on withdrawing the available balance yesterday (NB, not all the funds had yet cleared to JG, as some were donated by credit card) and it will take 4-6 working days to land. So with luck, the vast majority of the balance will be with Andy around the end of this week. I will then withdraw the remaining balance, plus any new donations, and discuss with Andy how much longer to let this run. Thanks again to everyone ... that's around 250 people pulling together to help 😍

According to the ad in the above post, it weighs 7lb 13oz

Sorry, I am selling as a complete rig. It's either this or my MarkBass combo to go and I don't want to risk ending up with a cab and no head!

£6500 reached (plus £35 outside of JG)!!!!

As I understand it, the 14 day rule is for the first draw down. It's to allow background checks to ensure its not money laundering (I think). Once that step has passed, I assume the balance of funds (reflecting donations post 14 days) can be withdrawn as and when. So could run for as long as wanted, but with a max of 1 year. I have emailed JG but their response times are sloooooowwwww

Latest thanks to @Steve Browning and @drewk_ie, cheers gents!!!! Now up to £6,450 (plus £35 donated separate from JG = £6,485)

Tomorrow is the final day of the 14 day period I have to wait to withdraw the funds (albeit the fundraising page can be left open for up to a year). Just sayin' https://www.justgiving.com/crowdfunding/mark-clark-3

This is the ad for the bass from RichTone (from whom I bought it). Loads more pics https://richtonemusic.co.uk/gibson-sg-standard-bass-faded-worn-cherry-hard-case-2nd-hand/

Thank you too to @Mottlefeeder for his kind donation outside of the JG page. Cheers David!

An(other) incredibly generous donation has now taken the total to £6,000 😍

The bass is pictured with DR stainless steel rounds but I can throw on some vgc Dunlop flats for a more old school vibe if preferred

Amazing total so far:

Bought a month or two back to be backup to my Wilcock but I am taking a break from bands and gigging. It's a 2012 model in faded cherry (the non gloss version, which I prefer as the neck is slicker to play). Good condition bar some slight extra fade above the E string where previous owner must have rested their thumb as an anchor and slight bruising on back of neck. Lightweight, as they always are (guessing c.8 pounds). I upgraded with a far superior Babicz bridge (£115) but the original 3 point bridge will come with it. Comes with Gibson hard case. £800 including post (within UK) or £775 collected from a public space in SW13 London.
