Priced higher is one thing, sold for that price is quite another! I think it's sold, just finalising the details.

Bump for reduced price. I guess this is last try before I stick it on eBay. I've attempted to edit the price above, but it doesn't seem to have worked. £120 now.

Bump. Come on chaps, you must know someone who needs a good entry level bass?

Sold Charla my Breedlove acoustic bass. Very straightforward transaction, and he's a nice chappy. Recommended.

And.....SOLD!

........and bump. Given my growing desire to own a 5 string banjo, I may head over to some banjo forums and attempt to trade. If you're thinking of making me an offer for it, now is a good time!

It's a lovely bass. I played the Passport, and that's even louder if you can believe it! This is nicer though.

Bumpity bump.

I'll pass near late evening on 16th May, on my way to Shepley.

I'd think a Jazz or Precision, being longer scale, would be a much better bet than a 'Stang. Can't see why it wouldn't work, but you'd have to recut the nut to accomodate the heavier gauges. I suppose a cheap bass is a good starting point in that regard!

Bump for the sake of bumping, and to mention that amongst the things I'd be happy to trade for is a 5 string banjo.

I'm in Southampton, but I do travel quite a lot. I work in Windsor 3 days a week, and I'm often to be found further across the country running workshops for my customers. Where are you?

This is a nice active bass, in absolutely as new condition. It's metallic white with a pearloid binding, and has a pretty cool 1980's look about it. It has a very 80's sound as well; it's pretty flexible and will cover most tones, but what it really excels at is that trebly, clanking tone that typified The Cure.

It's got a mahogany body and a bolt on wenge neck with a rosewood fingerboard. It's fitted with two humbuckers of Cort's own design, and has a push/pull volume control, a pickup blend control and a two band EQ, as well as a switch which boosts the mid.

It's a great bass, and I would not hesitate to gig it, it's just not getting played enough to justify me keeping it.

The details can be seen on the Cort site here:

I should add that I'm open to trade suggestions. I'm not sure what you could offer me for this money that would be interesting, but I play guitar as well as bass, I'm a particular fan of Fender, I'm not offended by Squier, Epiphone etc. Interesting effect pedals might get my attention, or if you wanted to trade a Blackstar HT-1 amp, I'd be all over it. Price now reduced to £120.

Good day to you, low end brethren! I've got a still very shiny Breedlove for sale. This is the one with the funny soundport thing in the top, which I'm not convinced adds a massive amount, but does look cool, and anyone with a long beard plait can dip it in and out for extra performance value.

This bass is in as-new condition; it's been played a few times in the house, never gigged, stored in its hard case, and there's not a mark on it. The case has one broken catch, (has there ever been a bass hard case without a broken catch?) but the other 4 are more than adequate.

It's a really superb sounding bass, and plenty loud enough to play unplugged. It has a solid cedar top, and laminate mahogany back and sides, a rosewood fingerboard and bridge, and Grover tuners.

It's fitted with an LR Baggs LR-T CV tuner preamp and pickup, quite a punchy tone both amplified and unamplified. Here's a link to the spec on the Breedlove site.

I would be very happy simply to sell it, but I'm open to interesting trades, also. I need a good bass amp with a polite indoor voice for front room practise, but I don't want any actual basses (or at least none that anyone would trade at this price; if you want to offer me a Wal Mk1, I'll listen!). Other than that, I'm always interested in interesting (non-bass) guitars, or indeed, a 5 string banjo.
