Still here? Madness I say

[quote name='andydye' timestamp='1376339824' post='2172562'] Dude are you just collecting these! [/quote] It appears not. Bump.

Hi, (sorry dood i ain't going to call you sexy, you're a bloke! ) What did you consider the difference in sound to be, between the 4 and 5 string version please? Cheers, Karl.

Cheers MB1 Thanks Norm, but I've had an offer of hugs on Faecesbook Tom, I do think you would like it. Very light, well balanced, great action and neck and beautifully crafted in Germany. In light of other stuff, perhaps I should have put the trade value somewhat higher. But, I didn't and I won't . If I have comparatively undervalued it, so be it. i paid £1100 for it, happy for that to be the trade value, or £1000 cash. Cheers, Karl.

All you can do is hang on really Peter. It's a tough market at best and middle of the holiday season doesn't help. I would love this but my AV62RI wasn't what you are looking for and my USA White Precision is maple board. My Warwick Bleached Blonde is the correct nut width but nowhere near what you are looking for. I will be back in touch if I sell the Warwick or my Geddy Lee. No doubt there are others trying to sell to fund purchasing this bass. Like my Warwick, it is a lot of money, even though it's a good price for what it is. It takes people time to find a lot of money. Hang on in there dude, Karl.

Last thing I have is a Warwick Bleached Blonde Ltd Ed but I have a higher trade value on that than you have on this. So, unlikely, but can't hurt to ask. You get another bump at least

[quote name='Thunderbird' timestamp='1376476264' post='2174358'] I agree that sometimes people go daftly low on prices but then there's the flipside of some people really taking the mick and trying to sell there bass at a ridiculously high price in the 1st place [/quote] Quite agree and it's a comment I really should not have made . So, bump for a lovely bass and back on topic?

WOW, 2 Bleached Blondes up for sale/trade at the same time As I understood it from Warwick, there were 250 x 4 strings made, and 77 x 5 strings made. GLWTS, Karl.

Darren, try Bumtree and Preloved. They will cost you nowt to try and there isn't quite as much competition there. I have sold three of my last 4 on there, not on here. It seems that with many basses on here the expectation is now to go daftly low. Often people wanting yours need to sell their's first which further complicates proceedings. Good luck, excellent bass, excellent price. Karl.

Gents he is not following this thread so you may be better sending him a pm. Good luck, Karl.

Was hoping for a deal with a very nice special Precision plus a couple of hundred my way but looks like that sadly may not happen now. So, bump for this very rare, superb quality beastie. Open to trade offers.

Good track, good bass, good luck. Bump.

[quote name='timmchale2009' timestamp='1376310695' post='2171921'] Karl I must insist you cease and desist immediately! Why you have so many nice bass?? [/quote] Sorry Tim Hope the AV62RI is working out for you. Cheers, Karl.

Can't really afford the new ones at the moment Gareth, but the second hand one at £760 was do able. Mind, doesn't mean to say I won't be saving my pennies and asking for a Sea Foam Green in the future Lot of gigs coming up, will need my part of the band account to NOT show a profit

[quote name='lushuk' timestamp='1376328318' post='2172222'] All PM's replied to and thank you for your interest, just awaiting for a response from someone to help out a BC member! Karlfer behave after months of wanting I had just talked myself out of a GL, its like red rag to a bull! [/quote]

What a fabulous rig! GLWTS

We have had discussions about this lovely Fender and a couple hundred sovs for my Bleached Blonde Ltd Thumb. Thing is Tom, the only time I'm on fire now is when Her Who Makes Toast By Breathing On Warburton's gets the little effigy out (NOT a euphemism)

[quote name='lushuk' timestamp='1376262257' post='2171580'] Ok, ill look forward to that, lets hope it goes well! Im looking for close as ive seen tatty ones go for around £650 [/quote] Good thing you are looking for sale only as I was going to offer my Geddy including case, plus £150. Which completely renders useless my attempts to get to two basses Again, don't usually comment on price, but that is a very fair price being asked. GLWTS, Karl.

[quote name='bengovier182' timestamp='1376247315' post='2171321'] I agree it's a very good price, just a bit more than i have at the moment. If it's still here when i can afford it I'll snap it up Always the case; when I've got money, there's no basses, when there's basses, there's no money lol. Ben. [/quote] Amen to that brother, amen to that And to make things worse, my ideal Precision (USA, Maple board, Lake Placid Blue) has just come up on Bumtree. I really MUST stop looking

Thanks for the comments gents. Sorry Ben, no idea. They appear to be the same as on the Japan models, which were made for 14 years. It looks like whatever the blocks are, they appear to be under the fretboard lacquer. You certainly can't feel the blocks. Seems to me the couple of Japan Geddy's that came up a while back at around £450 seem to make this look a bit expensive. I generally don't comment on price, but apart from the infuriating cymbal incident, this is immaculate and only a year old. They were both to say the least a bit mojo'd and neither of them were the more expensive sunburst. So, as against a new "real" price of £760, I think £530, or £560 with Gator hard case is VERY fair. Cheers, Karl.
