    Hi Guys,

    I have a Rare 1985 Bernie Goodfellow Custom Classic for sale, but I'm also open to trades of all kinds - Jus send me a pm or comment.

    The Bass has a quilted maple top, and bottom, with a slab of walnut in between including mahogany binding. The neck is maple/mahogany/maple/mahogany/maple and has a mahogany topped headstock with the 'G' logo followed by made in England. The bass has a wenge fingerboard and minimal fret wear. It's not a short scale, but it's easier to play than my 1994 Musicman Sterling. It has gold hardware and ebony covers kent armstrong pickups, which have grooves in the side of them to place your thumb, as I say this is the most comfortable bass i've played. The Bass require two batteries and is very powerful, when needed to cut through the guitars. These basses are very rare i've only ever seen 1 in person but I know of two others, not using the same timbers. The bass has a classic Mark King shape about it, and was handmade by Bernie Goodfellow himself, instead of his employees which make the modern 5 star rated GB Rumour, and GB Spitfire. It's in fantastic conditions, the only wear is on the laquer surrounding the 4 bolt neck, it has affected the wood nor the bolt attachment or anything like that, merely missing some gloss as you can see from the photos. I have only a heavily padded Warwick gigbag for this bass. I have no reason why I'm selling it, I just have a never ending need to own different basses. Tell me what you think!

    p.s. I'm based in South Wales, and I can reach the Scotland to Manchester area.
