If you use the search facility on the sale forum you might establish why you are struggling to make a sale; the Euro/£ exchange doesn't help!

[quote name='xzodar' post='943627' date='Sep 2 2010, 04:40 PM']Hi All Here we have a Stuart Spector Design 4 string bass in black. The cover over the trussrod lists this as an NS-4. It's a neckthrough design with a slim and easy to play neck. I believe that these were originally manufactured in Korea? The bass has active electronics and SSD badged pickups. It's not got a huge output but you can dial in a variety of good sounds. The E string tuner has a drop tuner but this doesn't appear to have enough travel so I've never experimented with it. The bass has a number of bumps and scratches from being gigged but these are all superficial rather than serious. The picture of the neck shows the fibre optic fibre from my Fret FX fretboard light which I can either remove from the bass or can be included with the bass for an additional £20. A hard case is included in the sale price. I'll re-fit the original strap buttons before any sale. I'd prefer a sale although trade wise I might be interested in a nice P or a P/J with some cash coming your way. Viewings and collection available from North Bristol. I'll happily travel up to an hour from here for a purchaser or arrange shipping (insured) at a cost of £20. Any questions please let me know. Cheers and thanks for looking Pete[/quote] As I'm sure you already know Pete, the bass isn't an NS4 and I'm sure one of the Spector experts will be along shortly to identify it but I think it's something like the NS2000 model. Not withstanding the changed truss rod cover its a decent enough bass with a thru-neck for £160. <edit> Oh and you could equally say that SSD is 'post' Spector but as it is, your bass is an SSD!

[/quote] Well I'd personally fail at the first obstacle as I'd be expected to get my lazy ar5e off this chair and go get the required materials... hence I couldn't then waste that time and effort responding on BC threads!

+1 for Interparcel - UPS. Sent a Streamer to the other end of the country and despite them taking my online booking and then later telling me that I had missed the collection deadline, I was still happy with the service and the bass arrived safe and sound. Oh and advice to those perusing this thread intent on sending a package by courier... pop down to your local cycle retailer and ask for one of the boxes that their adult sized cycles are delivered in; they are the perfect length and depth to take a hardcase you just need to cut down the width for the ultimate 'cheap' packaging (slip the offcuts between the case and the box for extra protection). Be polite and they'll likely be over the moon to give you a box for free as it costs them to have the packaging recycled.
