Sparkly silver Westone Raider I: https://www.gumtree.com/p/guitar-instrument/vintage-westone-raider-1-bass-guitar-made-in-japan-very-rare-and-sought-after-make-a-offer-/1136625371 Vantage X-9973, it's extremely rare apparently? https://www.gumtree.com/p/guitar-instrument/extremely-rare-70s-80s-matsumoku-vantage-x-9973-bass-with-hard-case-and-strap/1136392182

Gun guitars aren't my cuppa tea but this one's probably the best one I've seen, the trigger controls the volume and the hammer is the pickup selector, 2 grand though! http://thebassgallery.com/bass/colt-bass.html

Is this bass mij? Looks OK for 45 whatever it is. Too far for me unfortunately. https://www.gumtree.com/p/guitar-instrument/bass-guitar/1134671706

I was just looking at one on gumtree, it's only 80 quid East London area https://www.gumtree.com/p/guitar-instrument/bass-guitar-musicman-style/1134246098

There's one on Gumtree for 75 https://www.gumtree.com/p/guitar-instrument/flea-bass-bass-guitar-/1132873959

Westone Concord 1, looks like it's in good nic, but 199 quid maybe a little steep? http://www.preloved.co.uk/adverts/show/113659018/westone-concord-bass.html

I'm liking that Antoria, looks lovely.

[quote name='Bassassin' timestamp='1439412555' post='2842722'] This is also on Ebay: [url="http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Vintage-P-Precision-Bass-Guitar-Body-Loaded-Made-in-Japan-Project-Dimarzio-/231644903852"]http://www.ebay.co.u...o-/231644903852[/url] And the neck & tuners (already sold) are in the guy's previous listings: [url="http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Vintage-Bass-Guitar-Neck-Fretless-Project-Made-In-Japan-MIJ-/231639745240"]http://www.ebay.co.u...J-/231639745240[/url] [url="http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Vintage-Bass-Guitar-Tuners-Machine-Heads-with-Bushes-Ferrels-and-Screws-Project-/231645402182"]http://www.ebay.co.u...t-/231645402182[/url] Annnnd... It's not MIJ. It's (I'm 99% sure) also not a DiMarzio pup. The bass is/was an Italian-made Melody 5000, some of which came with DiMarzio lookey-likey pups as standard. Maple board fretted version second row from the bottom: [url="http://www.fetishguitars.com/castelfidardo-recanati/melody/melody-solidbodies/"]http://www.fetishgui...dy-solidbodies/[/url] And IMO it's a much more interesting, and certainly more rare instrument than the generic MIJ copy that our uneducated, wannabe-vintage guitar dealer chum is trying to fob it off as. Pity. J. [/quote] Thanks for the info, interesting, that Melody copy of a Gibson looks sweet.

[quote name='Grangur' timestamp='1439407676' post='2842635'] Would this not cost only slightly more if it had a neck attached? I'm sure I'm getting too cynical. [/quote] Yeh I thought it may be a bit expensive but it could be haggled down probably.

Lovely looking bass body with Dimarzio pick ups: http://www.gumtree.com/p/guitar-instrument/vintage-loaded-precision-bass-guitar-body-.made-in-japan.-dimarzios./1128901272

[quote name='Grangur' timestamp='1439273635' post='2841376'] I've just mailed him as well Too far for me as well. If I get an answer I'll PM you. [/quote] Thanks for that, it's appreciated.

Cool looking Bass. I'm after a Blazer myself, just waiting for one to crop up at the right price and hopefully near to me. That looks in really good nic, nice one.
