    [quote name='JCB' timestamp='1383910737' post='2270655'] Very nice looking bass. Do you know if the body is alder or ash? Also, do you know the weight? [/quote] The body is alder and the weight, I believe, is less than 9 Lbs - I will confirm exact weight later Spec and review here: [url="http://www.lakland.com/44-64.htm"][color=#0F72DA]http://www.lakland.com/44-64.htm[/color][/url]

    Sold a fine Celinder jazz to John yesterday. Great guy to deal with and he travelled almost the length of the country to collect it. Top man P

    Recently sold and shipped a bass to Geert in what was a very easy transaction. Would be happy to deal with Geert again anytime. P

    S - O - L - D '71 Fender Precision Blond The bass looks great and plays really well, currently strung with almost new set of LaBella flats. The pots and nut were replaced and there has been some extra shielding applied, the pocket has also been routed a bit deeper [font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif][color=#282828]This bass used to be owned by Willie Weeks and [/color][/font][color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif]comes with a letter of authentication from George Gruhn to that effect[/font][/color] Comers with covers and original Fender case Some more detail and photos, including the certificate, on Si's (0353203) ad, from whom I bought it [url="http://basschat.co.uk/topic/210532-1971-fender-precision-bass-owned-by-willie-weeks-sold/page__p__2117696__hl__willie__fromsearch__1#entry2117696"]http://basschat.co.u..._1#entry2117696[/url] Price is £1950 and I'm based in Harrow Middx.

    [quote name='johnbiffa' timestamp='1382653477' post='2255210'] Is the drop tuner a later addition please, I am getting more and more interested ! [/quote] I'm not the original owner, though I do believe that the drop tuner was part of the original spec - Chris Celinder did offer them as an option P

    I'm nearby in Pinner, though can't recommend anywhere locally - maybe BigJim will be along with some local suggestions P

    [quote name='johnbiffa' timestamp='1382562438' post='2253817'] Does this have a Celinder case? [/quote] The bass comes with a Hiscox lite hard case - though not a Celinder one!

    [quote name='kevin_lindsay' timestamp='1382447892' post='2252228'] That's Dan. You might have seen him on tv last summer at various festivals singing with Dizzee Rascal. He was also a finalist on the X Factor [/quote] That guy is (was?) with Paul Turner in DotFunk also

    I sold a bass to bpngo61 recently in what was an easy and problem free transaction. Would be happy to deal with Sven again any time. P

    Cool fretless and nice playing. Having traded bases with Kristofer in the past, I can happily recommend him to all.

    [quote name='cremonabass' timestamp='1381844790' post='2244448'] Beautiful Celinder! What is the weight on this one? [/quote] Just seen this! Thanks for the comments and question - the bass weighs 10.5 Lbs. or 4.75 Kls P
  15. Platypus
    I have one of these and the bass tone is just fantastic. A lot of money for sure, though I picked one up 2nd hand on here.

    BUMP!

    Dammit Si, I've been on a quest to reduce by little stash of basses and doing pretty well as it happens - then you go and do this!

    Thanks for the comments guys - the width at the nut is 1.75" . Lakland do offer an optional jazz style neck version which is 1.5" at the nut. Spec here: http://www.lakland.com/44-64.htm P

    [quote name='karlfer' timestamp='1380990525' post='2233184'] Never mind all that, what's that gorgeous Sonic Blue thingy hidden in your photys [/quote] Shhhhh.

    Like others have said, I too have found maple to be brighter and rosewood to be a tad warmer. I don't have preference for the attendance of either, as such - though like some contrast with the bass body colour. I like the appearance of maple against a dark bass body and just love a light pastel coloured body with a rosewood board

    Thanks for all the comments guys !

    [quote name='k50' timestamp='1380781111' post='2230366'] My puma 900 has just arrived from thomann. Certainly impressive at that price. [/quote] Great buy that! Really great amps and at £727 for the PUMA 900 very good value too

    Excellent! There can never be too many Wals in the world!!

    One sold on here yesterday for £450, which wasn't a bad deal either: [url="http://basschat.co.uk/topic/218349-genz-benz-streamliner-900-sold/page__p__2226145__hl__streamliner__fromsearch__1#entry2226145"]http://basschat.co.uk/topic/218349-genz-benz-streamliner-900-sold/page__p__2226145__hl__streamliner__fromsearch__1#entry2226145[/url]
