Thanks to everyone for all the offers, including an Elite, PDN 'Ray & 2 HCA Sandberg's, sadly all 5 string. A sale is preferred but happy to listen to further trades/part trades. Keep safe all.

I've played this actual bass & it's a really good one. Plays & sounds superb. GLWTS Neil.

Daft thing is Dunc, there's fewer of these than there are JV's 😄 Keep safe you & yours mate.

Cheers Mark. I was going to get a gold anodised scratchplate for it & may well still do if it doesn't go in a few weeks. Keep safe mate, all the best.

Surely sold long ago??

Hope you're staying ok as well Tom. Perhaps it is a bad time to sell but if it doesn't go it's fine. These will not come up often so I'm fairly confident that if I actually need to sell at sometime in the future, it will go. They only made 100 & only for Europe, so, if somebody is looking for one in the future............. Keep safe fella.

As per title, new in Nov 2019, this bass has never left the house. Still has plastic in the scratchplate. On sale for £1649 at the time. Plenty of info on t'interweb, but they are based on the American Pro Series, a limited run of only 100 basses for Europe, in 2019. P/J with unusual stack knobs, V/T for each pick up. Passive bass. Roasted fretboard & neck (although bit more coloured with Bisto than roasted IMO). 8lb 14oz, original case inc. Why? It took me a long time to figure out why I didn't get on with Laklands. Finally worked out it was the narrow tall frets. This has those (although the neck is super!) TRADES see thoughts below, but I'd prefer a sale. Excellent Precision say around 2008, with original case + £400 to me Excellent Player Series Precision with gigbag + £750 to me Courier, UK only, YOU would need to organise & pay for it, telling me when collection day is. FEEDBACK linked below. Keep safe, cheers, Karl.

Thanks to all for the brilliant advice. Bass withdrawn thanks. Stay safe!🙂

Loads of great ideas & advice, thanks guys. If it's still here after the weekend I'm going go try a couple of the suggestions, nowt to lose, possibly a lot to gain. You know that bass that don't work properly, you sit it in the corner out of the way but you can FEEL it looking at you 😆

Ooooh, there's a thought. Another star, thanks Vin, that's something I'd never have thought of, but I've read about it in the past. My memories not, er, what was I saying (I'm here all week, the government insists 😆).

Firstly, WALSHY, you're a star! Bassman, the relief is around 1/32" at the high point. I've had the neck off twice & tightened it. The truss rod MAY move a little more, but it's tight & I don't want to put anymore pressure on the screw. Doing a shim will only push the neck up at the heel, it won't alter the relief??

Wanted one of these because of the neck dimensions & pickup, I gave £800 in trade against a more expensive bass. Quick, windy & wet car park meet, he said he had the action high cos he played hard with a pick. Hmmm. Anyway, not sure if the neck is twisted/warped, or truss rod is maxxed out, hence the price (remember this cost me the equivalent of £800 + fuel, in the days we could drive). Pictures are dreadful, but action is 4/32 at 12th fret on bass & treble side. IF (BIG IF) you do like a high action, you may well be getting a bargain! IF YOU have great luthier skills (or a spare neck in your bits box 😆) you may be getting a bargain. 2013 model, one of the first. Light at 8lb 12oz. Gator style hard case included, I have the FF plate somewhere. UK courier only, BUYER TO ORGANISE & PAY. Payment by either bank transfer or PayPal family & friends. My feedback shows I won't stiff anybody (linked below). Sorry, unusually I'm not open to any negotiation on this one, I'm losing a bloody fortune. It won't be up for very long as I'm really thinking about throwing more money at it & getting a maple boarded jazz neck. Thanks for looking & please stay safe, cheers, Karl.
