As mentioned, you bought it, it's your bass, you can ask whatever price you want, no judgement at all on that. Just more that it was never advertised as a USA so some might think you advertising it as such was to get a higher price. If it's a genuine misunderstanding that's now been rectified, then no issues and good luck with the sale!

So this sold on eBay on 17/04/2019 for £595. The description states it is an Ernie Ball 'Stirling' with no mention to it being a USA body. Looks like it was sold by a know fellow BassChatter. Nowt wrong with the description in my eyes. If it was you that bought it, I'm not sure how you're losing money by asking £725. Not to derail you ad, and you are entitled to ask what you want and turn a fair profit, but a few things appear to be distortions of the truth!

If the eBay advert stated USA and you paid via PayPal then you're protected. Get you're money back sir.

@BENITO, I think your translation into English may not be 100% correct. I assume you mean the original tuners have been changed for Gotoh, but the original ones are included? There's a few other bits that may have been lost in translation!

Nice, although perhaps somewhat an acquired taste! Being half French, and this looking like the Tricolore (from the back anyway!) it could be of interest, though I fear I don't have much in the way of 4 strings for trade bait!

Being a 12 year 'veteran' of the site I should know better! 😂 Lovely bass either way sir.

Cracking price. The market is super tough unless you happen to be selling the exact bass someone is looking for. Surely at under £600 this will sell... if it were a 6er I'd have bought it already.

A rare and quite fantastic bass. I had the opportunity to play Jean Baudin's 12 string JP bass some years ago, the build quality was excellent. This looks to qualify for that same excellence.

What he said.

Is this the model that actually bursts the sun when you play it?

Nice, always fancied one of these...

Your fly is undone in the third picture... it's ok, because like the bass there is nothing there.

No point dredging up an ancient for sale thread, all it does it make other people think it's still for sale! Someone should probably lock this given it was posted 3 years ago with no further comment from the OP.

I'm going to mark this as sold as there are now 3 people wanting to buy... if ALL the sales fall through, I'll re-open! (Should of asked for more! 😭)

Hi, Up for sale here is my rather stunning Shuker custom built 6 string bass, as some of you may have seen, this was on eBay last week and 'sold' for £675 with the bidder then cancelling the sale, as such I'm going to list it here for the non-negotiable price of £695 which includes free postage with the UK or a £25 contribution to any other postage (EU, USA etc.) In my opinion, £695 with free postage is silly money for this bass... Only listing it at this price as it'd be unfair to ask for more as I would have let it go on eBay as per the final sale price. This things is an amazing bass, it has dual EMG soapbar pickups which provide a vast array of tones from hi-fi clarity to deep bassy lows. I believe the pre-amp is a Seymour Duncan 3 band, it has Volume, blend, bass, mid, treble controls and works beautifully with the EMG pickups. The tuners are Gotoh reso-lite tuners and the bridge pieces are individual hipshot mono-rail bridges. Scale length: 34" String spacing: 18mm Weight: 4.5kg Both the top wood and back wood are AAAA quilt maple, it has a beautiful 3D effect and is about as good as you can get from quilt maple! The body core is mahogany and with 5 laminate neck (maple, wenge, flame maple, wenge, maple). The fretboard is a beautiful piece of birdseye maple and plays as good as it looks. The overall construction is absolutely impeccable, the bass has very few marks on it anywhere, there is one light scratch on the upper bout, but besides that it's almost mint. To custom order a bass like this now would set you back over £3000, so I'm sure someone will get an incredible deal here. I'm only selling to fund another custom 6 string bass. The bass with come with the original Shuker/Hiscocks hard case and it has been freshly re-strung so it's ready to rock! I'm happy to ship the bass, however this will be uninsured as I cant find any couriers that insure instruments, but as it has the hard case it should be safe enough! Please do note if I ship this, this is on the understanding that the buyer assumes all responsibility once I've dropped it at the post office, unless you can tell me a courier I can insure with! (May ask for a small postage contribution if it's a particularly expensive courier) Collection is more than welcome (I'll knock £25 off the price for collection). I'm based in Basildon, in Essex and you're welcome to come view it before hand. If you have any questions, please do ask! Can post more pictures if needed, just let me know!

That is my favourite MTD! Any trade options?

Great price...
