Well what can i say, this has to be a record even for me, but i just can't get myself to 'connect' with this bass, which is a pity cos it's really nice to play and lovely to look at, but it's a bit too modern sounding for me, so it has to go and for the bargain price of £425 posted, that's saving you around £130. It's just over a week old and is in the same condition as it was when it came into my possession, minus one of the screws for the rear cover plate which i somehow managed to lose. Other than that the bass is in excellent condition and will be posted in the same packaging as it arrived in. Payment by bank Transfer only...may consider trades for the right bass...

[quote name='greyparrot' post='430865' date='Mar 10 2009, 06:57 PM']thats stunning, when my warrick is sold, i will get something like that for a back up to my CS 1970 JAZZ. Out of nterest, how much was this? Rich.[/quote] I bought it from the states so with import duty etc i think it came to around £450 approx. The necks on the 62RI really are very nice to play and this one in particular has a sort of vintage vibe going with regards to looks...soundwise it's a very good bass, the sustain on this thing goes on for hours, as a matter of fact i was practising the other night there and went out to the shops for an hour and the damn thing was still ringing when i came back ...only selling to meet my self imposed 3 bass rule..no doubt i'll regret it and end up with another P bass at some point.

Decided to move this on. It's a Fiesta Red CIJ 62RI p bass fitted with Kent Armstrong Vintage Hot pickups. I'ts in good condition apart from a chip at the neck pocket and a ding on the body. Best thing about this bass is the neck...really lovely to play. Bass will be sent in a padded gig bag and outer box via insured courier. [size=5][b]SOLD PENDING. Payment by bank transfer only.[/b][/size]

[quote name='Ghosts Over Japan' post='428248' date='Mar 7 2009, 09:37 PM']Do I get the skull included? thats a nice bass but more interesting to me as that lovley looking jazz good luck with the sale[/quote] Cheers...the jazz is lovely...AmDlx body is very light, never weighed it...but i'm guessing not much more than 8lb. I stuck a varitone control plate in the body and some Seymour Duncan pups in, i can get some nice sounds even with my piss poor playing

[quote name='Shockwave' post='428245' date='Mar 7 2009, 09:37 PM']Damn, thats totally me, But its not a 5 string Hows the balance on it?[/quote] It's actually pretty well balanced for the shape of the bass....guess the small headstock helps out there.

Bought this on a whim a few weeks ago for£400. Whe originally sold they retailed for over a grand. It has Seymour Duncan pups, Bad Ass bridge, Gotoh Tuners, quarter sawn oiled maple neck and rosewood fretboard. controls are volume/volume/tone. Even though it's pretty unorthodox in shape it's surprisingly comfortable to play and very light. Only selling as i have my eye on another bass and have a 3 bass rule at the mo. [size=6][b]Looking for £375 posted. Payment by bank transfer only. UK sales only. Might make a trade depending on what's offered[/b][/size]
