Phone first... it's a 140 mile drive.

That way you wouldn't have to put up sales people who on the face of have no sales skills.

Phoned three times. No answer.

Just travelled 140 miles to purchase a Spector gig bag listed on Bass Directs website. Got there only to be told very rudely "not had them in 3 months"

So why are they available to purchase via the website. I stood awkwardly while Marcus & assistant tit tattled about when one was last sold like children.

Frankly Marcus seems like a very spoilt, downright rude person who has no people skills, no idea how to treat customers and has no idea how to run a business or a website.

I highly recommend taking your money elsewhere, especially if you're looking to buy a new instrument.

The Gallery in Camden or Bass Gear are both very friendly and will offer you a brew and a chat. Marcus will offer nothing but awkward silences and rude remarks.

Still available?

Thanks Scott!

Any chance of a pic of the Z3?
Just out of sheer noseyness��

Here's the one I let go purely on aesthetics, it played and sounded incredible. It came via a trade deal and I then just figured that if I'm spending as much as I did it should at least be in my choice of colour. See the right hand pic...WOW.....I think Sheldon called it 'Bloodmoon'...absolutely stunning.

It simply looks like demand outnumbering supply. Keeps the prices up too. I'm simply going to have to order from scratch if I'm to get the one I really want...£££££££££££££££££££

I'd buy it back in a heartbeat if I knew who had it! Although I found the stock Glockenklang preamp to be rather restrictive. It would of been better with Darkglass pre, but nevertheless a fantastic instrument.

I should have fitted a darkglass to mine instead of looking at the Z series. I wanted an active circuit, it even had a wenge neck with oversprayed bubinga top. The Z3 replacement was magnificent but had a coffee table wood top and cost a fortune, Still a magnificent bass. Are you still using the purple one Kev?
I'm just going to have to save a bit more and do the dream order from Sheldon.

I used to own that same Bubinga topped Z3, you sold to Pete I think, I bought it off him. Was a beautiful bass...

Finally got round to sorting things out, give it a wipe over and a dust off and I'll take it off your hands Friday

It has a maple neck with a rosewood Fretboard...not a rosewood neck!

So I honestly didn't think I'd ever be doing this, but a recent change in financial circumstances forces me to sell a few of my basses to replenish some funds.

So here is a beautiful example of pure German craftsmanship at the highest level.

I drove nearly 200 miles down to Bridgend in Wales to purchase this from Jason 'Jay' James the previous bass player for Bullet For My Valentine. The bass is signed and dated by Jay and I have pictures below to prove The authenticity.

Please don't comment with "Sharpie ruins it" etc etc. I've had all that on Facebook. It's a lovely bass and if the buyer dislikes the signature it's easily removable with multiple methods without harming the finish.

Specs:

Canadian Hard Rock Maple neck
Swamp Ash body
Satin trans black finish
Premium Rosewood Fretboard
Delano Active Preamp w/ active/passive push pull
Delano MM Bridge pickup
Delano Jazz Neck pickup
Sandberg branded (Gotoh) Hardware.

Will include a gig bag with the sale, anyone welcome to come and try it out, the bass sounds phenomenal and plays like butter!!

Cheers

Absolute beauty Harry! A bargain price to match!!
