[quote name='warwickhunt' post='716004' date='Jan 17 2010, 08:59 PM']I've never tried one of these but I would love and I'd probably have had a punt at this and bought blind but at this kind of price it'd have to be in my fav colour/livery and that'd have to be 'burst with tortie! Best of luck with the sale though. [/quote] I'm a burst n tortie fan too! Although black pearloid and black works dandy also! I love the fact the bridge is inline wih the pickups on this one. Also the headstock brill, all round great but no funds n after a 5! best of luck with the sale!

I had a Lynyrd Skynyrd tape when I was 5 n I played it over n over till it died. Still got the worn out bit o card from inside n its got a picture of Leon Wilkeson recording with one o these, always remember it. If I were to get a tele bass, would have to get the humbucker version. Do you play it wearing a top hat?

PM'd

Does anyone have any experience of fanned frets, is there much of a learning curve?

[quote name='wildman' post='712630' date='Jan 14 2010, 02:57 PM']I'd like to try a six. Trouble is I need to sell my Sandberg fretless 4 to fund the purchase. Do you fancy a trade ? [url="http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=70411"]http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=70411[/url][/quote] That bass looks wicked, can tell what it would sound like before I've even played it. I've been very impressed with the Sandbergs I've played, another value for money bass. Unfortunately I can only transport one bass and one guitar at the moment - which is why the Corts up for sale. I'd expect your sandberg to go pretty soon though, I've had a lot of offers from people just browsing google. Have you tried gumtree in London?? Six string is a joy because theres not detuning/retuning and you have both the low B for funk and metal and the high C for chords and soloing. Like a fretless, great bass to have in the arsenal! I'm just enjoying the hot pickups in my EB3 and the valve amp simulation on my Genz Benz for the mo...

You musta been an awesome player if you could find your way around that! Absolutely gorgeous, I'd need lines unfortunately.

Cheers cm261, Cort make fantastic basses. This is my second, the first was a Cort A4 that I got made fretless. So good had to get another! They have a masterpiece series above this that had fancy wood tops which looked about over a grands worth of wood for £800!

Hows the balance on this?

Thats amazing, signatures the icing on the cake. Very cool. I'd keep it personally!!

Pics?

Looks a fantastic bargain, intermediate bass for a beginners price.

If their related to you I woulda thought so. And if you play a lil diddy on it for them in return??

Finally! A video that makes me wanna keep it and shows me what I could sound like if I put in the time and effort. Please note that its the passive tone on the video!! Enjoy...

ALSO!! Nice to see that musicman have started swapping the screws on the pickups round, they really got in the way when playing. Shame they don't do that finish on the single pickup version. Best of luck with the sale!

I could sleep in that case, makes my bed look proper sh*t...

Hi Seb, I can't travel the halfstack as i'm in Cardiff. Collection only i'm afraid. Apologies.

PMs Replied to. Collection offer will be continued as the old man has agreed to help me out. The head and cab together cost me £1k new, should be sold at £500 as its in mint a1 condition and its 2nd hand (i'm the original owner). Price is at £350 for an incentive for collection of halfstack package - they're made for eachother... Can't split until I can post in the summer which will inevitably mean a large loss on my part

Bumped again

Hands Down, best bass I've seen on this forum to date.

Haha! I love the Bootsy Bass. Beautiful top on the MTD.

On sale until the 12th of January.

You always come up with the really fab stuff, how much is it to send a bass from spain to the UK roughly?

Bump

That is soooo f'ing cool!! 21 lbs!! Too heavy for me, but great price!! I'll get a chambered double neck made one day...one day...

Does it spike you in the ribcage? It's bloody lovely, just wish it had a Floyd...
