    Tom, stop this nonsense and give your head a shake (well, at least until I have some spare loot .) Karl.

    Did the VAT increase in January also move prices up? Even if it didn't, that increase must have hit distribution and retailers costs. . Second hand is even more where it's at now. Karl.

    Thanks for sharing Delberthot, kinda backs up my gut feeling. Shame didn't have Basschat when I lived in Brightons, couldv'e had a wee swallie. Karl.

    The most annoying thing is the fiscal hypocrisy of FEEBay. They are quite happy for the Retrovibe, Bass Collection's California and the occasional (alleged) "Tokai" Rockinbetter. If it's a business customer. I actually think it is about time the scrotes were reported to Trading Standards or the Office of Fair Trading over this issue. Lets face it, we have plenty of evidence of their hypocrisy. It should be all or none. Karl.

    So am I Tom. Only thing that put me off is the nut is far too recessed into the top of the neck. Something not right there. Asking the question of the seller, I was told all the guitars he sells are perfect, sadly he didn't answer my question as to wether the truss rod still worked, was maxed out, if the neck was twisted etc. So, I'm out. Karl.

    Excellent WH. Shame you've been put through this worrying sh*t. Life's too short to be angry with people, but, RONZ, you are actually in the presence of people with a shared passion and generally a shared sense of decency. You seem to lack that. I will be in Aberdeen in July, perhaps we should meet up for a wee swalley and a discussion on ethics. Karl.

    It is a shame that there is so much deflection going on. To alienate a good number of BC'ers and possibly the legendary Overwater by simply twisting and turning instead of cutting to the basic's, is a bit mis-guided in my opinion. OK, off the fence time, growing a spine time. WH has a fantastic reputation on here and I very much doubt he would jeopardise that. Hope it works out justly for you fella. Karl.

    Cheers Wayne, right on all counts I guess.

    Price about right from what others have gone for. Seem to remember electric or battery chewing issue. Perhaps bit more research will help my memory, but it ain't gonna be tonight . Karl.

    Went for £581, absolute steal, I would have bid more but it finished this morning when I was at work. .

    Yup, and sometime just before I got home from work. On the day Gareth-Hughes received my jazz and said he was happy with it. 2 days after the wonderful Mod, JohnGH offered to pick it up from London for me. So, just hours to late to get this . Never mind, well done Nigel. Now, when can we have your next entertaining "for sale" thread? Karl.

    He is a member, it's for sale on here as well.

    Top bloke, well done Chris.

    Thanks for that Hillbilly, I think there is something slightly amiss, but it's nice to getr some agreement. Shame, it's a stunning looking jazz . Thanks for your help. Karl.

    Hope you can help folks. Please see attached photo's. This is something I'm looking to buy, as I am finding maple boards easier to play nowadays. The bullet truss rod seems to be too recessed into the neck. This gives rise to other concerns about the neck, twisted etc. Any ideas? Any questions I must ask the seller? Thanks in anticipation folks, Karl.

    Jolly good show chaps. Thought he was talking bollocks, but, as that's usually me, thought I'd invite in the knowledgeable ones.

    TIM. My '75 RI has gone to Gareth_Hughes. Thankfully you are a long way from me Nigel, because despite wanting a Duck Dunn, I know your bass is going to be; 1. Fantastic to play. 2. Stunning to look at. 3. Never worth any less?? than it is now. Import jobs are going up by the month. Just hope somebody hit's the buy it now button before I have to go down to Brum or somewhere. That will be too close for comfort . Karl.

    [quote name='Steve_nottm' post='1216457' date='May 1 2011, 11:56 AM']I'm tempted by this but I'm really after a 75 reissue. It's the block inlays. This bass with blocks would be perfect. If I bought it I'd be looking at others with blocks and thinking I should have waited.
