    It's a bloody ridiculous steal of a price. Difficult to understand why this is still here.

    Oh God, Mark has a Burgundy Mist J and Fiesta Red P, both reliced, on his site at the moment. Really struggling to avoid the J

    NOTE FOR MODS. Liam saw my ad for this bass on Gumtree. I advised him to check my feedback on here. He ended up joining

    JV's were going out at up to an astronomical £1500 a couple of years ago. Quite a few in the £1200 bracket. Now bringing not a lot more than half that. Dingus is right of course, but there are more complex reasons at work as well.

    Link updated but not sure if the poster's security settings allow public viewing, as it obviously just comes straight up for me. If it doesn't work, try Karl Altdorfer on Faecesbook. As I stated, it's low quality on a phone camera, you can just about hear a bit of bass. Mind you, when people have done this in the past, you couldn't hear ANY bass.

    [quote name='BetaFunk' timestamp='1401130853' post='2460435'] I'm just curious but in what way did it impact on the 2nd hand market? [/quote] Well for example Marcus Miller jazzes. As they came to the end of the Japanese production, they were selling new at over £1000. So people put them up second hand at £750/£850. A quick search on t'interweb showed that their 2004 (for example) MM had sold new for £449. So people looked at £850 second hand and thought privately, " ye hav te be jokin bonny lad".

    Tim, don't know if you are aware of the US folks in the following link, but they do a superb range of top quality decals for fretboards including fake MOP. That Bob Glaub with the Billy Sheehan fret markers, they came from Creative Cuts. Reasonably priced, excellent quality and service and even a goon like me can fit them http://myworld.ebay.co.uk/creative-cuts

    I think there are a lot of factors at work. Huge amounts of basses for sale here. Many of us have been spoilt for choice over the last few years. FEEBay has seen sellers push up prices to cover the 13.4% you CAN be charged, some folk try for the same sort of price on here as is seen for an item on FEEBay. Once upon a time you would see the numbers online indicator at the bottom of the home page showing 3000/5000 online, now it rarely shows more than about 500. That suggests a significant drop in people viewing, unless of course the method of counting them has changed. Oh, and a lot of folk are skint.

    Is this "relatively" cheap because it's a set neck? Pity Norwich is 4.5 hours each way for me . Oh and it's a 5 string [url="http://www.gumtree.com/p/for-sale/warwick-dolphin-sn5-bass-guitar-excellent-condition/1026884159#photo-content"]Warwick Dolphin SN5 Bass Guitar - Excellent Condition! | Long Stratton | Gumtree[/url]

    Looks different, not the usual black box, obviously. My spine cries just looking at it. Those rotaries and switches wouldn't last very long where they are.

    David, click on his name in any of his posts (the norwood bit that is underlined) That opens a new box. In that box, near the top right are three rectangles. The middle one says " send me a message" Click to open it, write your topic, your message, then click near bottom to send.

    Glad in a way, I was going to reduce my 2000 Hot Rodded tonight, to complete funding for this. Somebody is going to be very happy

    Yet another stunning bass Bump.

    VERY tempting . Fairly sure you need to take the neck off to find year of manufacture on these?

    [quote name='mirszmarsz' timestamp='1400867894' post='2457775'] Nice one ... but we from europe will keep hands double off course [/quote] Sorry, not quite sure what you mean? If it's because I state UK only, I always do that HOWEVER, I have sold basses to Europe when asked to. I do ask for the following though. 1. Money to be paid in GBP, by bank transfer (this usually takes 3 days to clear from Europe). 2. Buyer to arrange their own INSURED courier, and buyer to let me know what day courier will collect. My feedback is linked below and shows I have done this in the past. I simply prefer NOT to do it as I have had problems (an Aerodyne lost for 3 weeks in Genoa airport springs to mind ). This bass ready for action at last nights gig [url="http://s1354.photobucket.com/user/Karl_Altdorfer/media/DSCF0537_zpsd8efc1c4.jpg.html"][/url]

    I would, but not nearly 300 miles away!

    [quote name='dodgnofski' timestamp='1400778183' post='2456949'] + 1 for rosewood - must resist, please tell me it's a pan pot jobbie that I don't like and not a vol, vol, tone layout !! [/quote] Sorry Tim, IT IS vol vol tone ! By the way, Roqsolid appear to have a relaunch kinda thing with 15% off, so worth a try for your TC perhaps?
  21. karlfer
    Took me a couple of days to twig that Tim. Age is my excuse and I'm sticking with it
  22. karlfer

    My avatar is almost exactly what Lozz said That was an outdoor festival with me through front of house, however, the cab was just on a flight case. Cheaper boxes are available, as are stands
  24. karlfer
    Nice. What's the weight ? Action? Courier? Case included or not? Case original or not

    [quote name='Cosmo Valdemar' timestamp='1400508523' post='2454439'] I like it. It's like a John Deacon with an extra bit. Sadly I am unable to make you an offer as you have something else I covet far, far more... [/quote] Not any more, the bass that must not be named has been sold, via Bumtree, she's gone I'm afraid ! This one is still currently here though! [quote name='timmchale2009' timestamp='1400528490' post='2454725'] Aye she's a thing of beauty. [/quote] Cheers Tim, hope you are ok fella!
