    I'm the one trying to ride a DB and playing Wah-Wah effects on a Wal... I do know what to do with a bass really!
  2. warwickhunt
    I have a feeling that this is a BCer!
  3. warwickhunt
    Used to be mine, it is a lush bass and is 'very' rare indeed... possibly unique! If you like light basses with slim, fast necks then this is the bass to check out.

    Do a quick search on BC, I am sure that this has been discussed quite recently.

    If it is a 90's bass then dot inlays make it very early 90's.

    You can end early if you sell to the highest bidder... which sounds like he has done but with no intention of going through with it. He patently couldn't end the listing in the last 12 hrs as it had bids on, so he has likely assumed that would be easiest but saying that he could have ended it because it was no longer available. Strange one that. However, if you have an invoice and pay officially through paypal he will be charged the ebay fees; he won't sell you it so you will get a refund and he won't have to pay the paypal fees.

    Did you actually place the final winning bid or did he end the listing early? If you 'won' the auction then you are within your rights to pay via paypal and demand he sell it (99% certain he won't let you have it), if he doesn't complete the deal then you get a full refund and can neg him. However, if you don't pay I don't think you can leave negative feedback.

    He's not a happy bunny... his description may be longer but none of it about the bass! I wonder if that is because his previous bidder doesn't think the item is as described?

    £1500 is a decent enough approximation of value, I don't think that you have undervalued it at that price. I'd suggest putting it up at that and the market response will tell you if it is too much and you can adjust accordingly.

    Nice one. Is there a 212 there and/or a pair of those 12's?
  12. warwickhunt
    Oh and nice unusual Thumb!

    If the electronics are standard (not saying that all early 90's would be especially on a NAMM/custom model), it should be 2 band EQ with a vol and pan pot. I've never encountered a Jazz style 2 pup system on a Warwick that would have TWO push pulls (the Dolphin among others has two but one is active/passive and the other is for a coil tap on the rear double/triple coil pup). Do both pots do something or is it a case of someone fitting a push/pull pot because they had nothing else available or they had taken the preamp/pots from another bass?

    The BBE sounds great (I have owned one) but... and this is a very individual thing, I found the background noise level just a smidgen too high. I will confess that I expect almost silence when not in use and I've known other bassists have no problem with levels of noise which I have found unacceptable added to which when in use you do not hear the noise at all.

    [quote name='MacDaddy' timestamp='1378056765' post='2195258'] Great guitar and price. Paul in the Quireboys sometimes gigs his instead of his Gibson. [/quote] Yes Paul and I went to school together (still see him 'infrequently' when he pops back ooop North) and I recall seeing various pics and vids of him with various 'Vintage' guitars. [quote name='Ancient Mariner' timestamp='1378138709' post='2196166'] I suspect it's really Hot Slag, but adding an 's' might work for you as it did for the motor industry. I don't need more gear right now, but that's a great price. [/quote] Cheers.

    On hold pending a deal.

    [quote name='Billy Apple' timestamp='1377971524' post='2194280'] Purely the Hot Slags name for comic effect. I did goole them though and find some sound clips. Those Slags are rockin' [/quote] Phew that saves me hunting through the pile of boxes to establish I wasn't cracking up.

    [quote name='cybertect' timestamp='1377970295' post='2194255'] It'll be a Sheraton II model. I have a 1983 Sheraton II made in Japan just before they shifted production to Korea. With the 'Epiphone by Gibson' legend on the headstock, it's probably made in the Samick factory in Korea some time between about 1986 and 1989. Does it have an 8 digit serial number beginning with 6, 7 or 8 (usually to be found on a sticker on the back if the headstock)? [/quote] Literally just been told off a local guy that it is an 86-88 Sheraton (based on the 'Epiphone by Gibson' inlay).

    [quote name='Billy Apple' timestamp='1377969611' post='2194247'] Hot Slags? Really! [/quote] Erm... yes I'm fairly sure! Is that not right? It was fitted by the previous owner and I'm sure that is what he said it was. I'm fairly sure that I have the box for the fitted pup as the original is stored in it, it'll take a bit of digging through boxes (house move and some stuff still not unpacked yet) to check. Is there a problem with it if it is a HS, or is it the silly name you are commenting on?

    [size=4][color=#333333]'Vintage' (make) Les Paul V100 the factory distressed one (set neck as per Gibson). Has a Hot Slags pup in the bridge position (original Wilkinson one still in neck position and existing bridge one full working and supplied). Really lovely low action and great sound... stick a tattoo on the headstock and it'd fool Joe Public. [/color][/size] [color=#333333]Can courier but I'd prefer collection from NE England[/color] [URL=http://s54.photobucket.com/user/warwickhunt/media/IMG_2787_zps919aa571.jpg.html][IMG]http://i54.photobucket.com/albums/g119/warwickhunt/IMG_2787_zps919aa571.jpg[/IMG][/URL] [URL=http://s54.photobucket.com/user/warwickhunt/media/IMG_2786_zpsb9214ec2.jpg.html][IMG]http://i54.photobucket.com/albums/g119/warwickhunt/IMG_2786_zpsb9214ec2.jpg[/IMG][/URL] [URL=http://s54.photobucket.com/user/warwickhunt/media/IMG_2788_zpsa6781ff9.jpg.html][IMG]http://i54.photobucket.com/albums/g119/warwickhunt/IMG_2788_zpsa6781ff9.jpg[/IMG][/URL]

    [size=4][color=#333333]Epiphone Sheraton 335 style guitar. [/color][/size] [size=4][color=#333333]No idea of age but I have owned it 23-24 years and it was used when I got it. I'm sure the guitarists among you will be able to age it from the headstock inlays etc. No problems or issues and no dings, dinks or scratches, some of the hardware is a bit tarnished as are parts of the pup covers but nothing horrendous and no impact on playability or tone.[/color][/size] [color=#333333]It will need to be collection only from NE England as I have no case for the guitar and though I'd happily package a solid bodied bass to ship, I'd not be happy sending this by courier.[/color] [url="http://s54.photobucket.com/user/warwickhunt/media/Epi335_zps46046689.jpg.html"][/url]

    Current bidder @£155 has 2 bids of that AND ABOVE so to win you'll be looking at £165/£170 +

    [quote name='LeftyJ' timestamp='1377788670' post='2191862'] Depends on the era it was made in. Early ones would have wenge necks with fairly thin profile. When they switched to ovangkol necks, which isn't as hard as wenge, they changed their neck profiles. Currently they're back to thinner necks, and the custom shop has been offering a "flat C shape" profile since 2006-2007 or something. At custom shop prices though, unfortunately. I love the P-nut signature. It is essentially much like a Streamer Stage II, but with the JazzMan configuration. It might very likely be my perfect bass, if it wasn't so damn expensive [/quote] Just about to suggest that you buy my SSII and fit a triple coil in the bridge position... then I noted you were a lefty!
