    Good evening, wotsy, and welcome to the forum...

    Assuming it's in good general condition, with nothing broken, I'd suggest that that's a pretty good price for a pretty decent bass.We have had a similar bass (5-string version...) for several years now, and it's been played on a very prestigious stage by a top player (his own bass was busted, so we lent him our Cort...). He was well pleased, and 10,000 festival-goers couldn't tell the difference. It's not a Musicman, nor a Jazz, but has enough character of its own. Nicely built, good value for money.
    Just my tuppence-worth; hope this helps.

    Thanks mate, that does help, I'm looking at a couple of basses this week but if they fall through I'll check it out closer if it's still there, nice one. :)

  2. I've noticed that Probass has put up eight basses for auction with no reserves, could be a bargain in it for someone.
    Link to one of them

    I'm in no way linked to the seller, or know him.

  3. Nice bass:

    It's so frustrating how all the basses I'd like to buy are always too far away from me........

    P.S. - Anyone know why my post count's still at zero?

    P.P.S - Looks like he's put it on Ebay:

    Never had my hands on a Morris Hurricane, but the factory, Moridaira, did make some good-quality instruments. 70s & early 80s Hohners were made by Moridaira, I have a Hohner-branded Washburn Wing copy guitar which is extremely well-made and quite lovely - or it was before I played it to death & stupidly modified it!

    Looks like a pretty bass, if it's a sensible price why not go & have a look, if the seller's local?

    I arranged to go and look at it tonight but 10 mins after setting off they cancelled by text, I didn't notice the text until I was almost there as I was driving, so just done an hour-ish round trip for nothing, suppose these things happen but I'm a bit gutted and will probably wait for something else to come along now, oh well....
