No sweat, there's one on ebay that I'm going to offer £180 +£20 postage.
Sure you appreciate 6 hours driving and £70 of fuel doesn't add up.

Good luck,
cheers,
Karl.


Oh, and bump again.

Sorry. Metallica's version is what I obviously meant to write.
Only because that's the version I do in the covers band I am currently in.
I would love to turn up to this Saturday night's gig, at the Derby Arms in Colne, with that.
Talk about Duelling Bango's.Not to mention two very nervous guitards.

Love it's tacky-ness.
Just the thing to belt out Metallica's Am I Evil?

I traced an Epi Explorer bass serial number a while back and seem to remember U was the notaion for the Unsung factory and think the 1st two digits were the year.
Could be completely wrong, memory, blah blah, memory, blah blah, mem....

Coat being got!

BUMP![/quote]


I thought I was the only one alive who remembered that fabulous song.

Thanks Deaky.
Sorry, just twigged no posting.
400 mile round trip so no go I'm afraid.

Good luck,
Karl.

[quote name='Lostheplot' post='782256' date='Mar 22 2010, 12:27 AM']Would you consider splitting this if so how much for the Hartke head?[/quote]



Yeah, same question from me.
Thanks,
Karl.

Crackin Grommit, so tempted.

I was after this bass but it was only for trade.
I have a Highway 1 Jazz and gotta tell ya, it is probably the 2nd best Fender I have had, second only to the '74 jazz I had for 30 years.
Good luck with the sale.
Karl.

Oh, er, bump.

So, deal agreed Sunday.
Bass arrived 7.40 am Tuesday. Should have the wrapping undone by Friday(that's a lie, but to damage this bass in transit would have been bordering on impossible)
AMAZING.
I love the bass, it is better than described,did I say I love the bass?

Simon, I simply cannot praise you enough, superb, easy transaction.
I am immensely grateful to you for providing me with a Precision with a slimmer neck, that I can play.
Did I say I love the bass?
Now, where's that stupid grin removal cream?

TOP,TOP guy.

Many thanks,
Karl.

Hello, has this gone then?

Ohh, yummy, Mummy.
Take that bump Sah.

Thought that was you on the bay.
Just a bit out of my price range but good luck, it's a stunner Andy.
Karl.

I've just left a band of 30 somethings. I'm 51.
No grieff or anything like that, just got the offer to join a bunch of 40 something rockers.
I had to learn an 8 minute Metallica song and lots of other challenging rock stuff of the stop/start, change key, widdle variety. 37 songs in 3 weeks before the first gig.
Loving it!

There is always something better, just waiting to be found.
Get on those formiing band sites and enjoy.

Good luck,
Karl.

Seamless.
Deal agreed this morning, met up, done.
Not only is Tom a top gent, he has a ridiculously wonderful selection of basses.
Whadya mean, green eyed monster.

Many, many thanks Tom, you are a gent.
Cheers,
Karl.

Hiya fella, where in the country are you please?

Hiya N.
The Rick parts cost about £400. Not worth that second hand but I would guess 2 Rick pick ups, Rick pick up surrounds,Rick pick up cover(2nd hand one on e bay standing at £26), Rick bridge, Rick saddles, Rick wiring loom, would bring in over £200 if parted out.
Thankfully I don't have the skills to attempt that!
Don't think for one second that I haven't thought about contacting you about that superb, gorgeous Twin Neck.
Sadly I am even worse with 6 strings!

Cheers bud, and good luck,
Karl.

Now £500 collected for a short period, (after a certain Precision that has come up).

Please remember, this looks almost new apart from a tiny chip on the headstock.

It also has £400 worth of real Rickenbacker parts.

Thanks,
Karl.

Probably last bump unless someone has loot,a Precision or an amp/rig that is near to what I am needing.

Disappointed that it's not gone, especially when you see an admittedly beautiful Ibanez, at £650.

The pick ups/mountings/bridge/saddles/wiring loom/set up/nut all cost a lot of money but I still only paid £575 plus £100 for the set up/nut/strings.

I do think £550 collected is reasonable, but open to opinions?
Cheers,
Karl.

B****r, B****r, and thrice b****r.

Oh, and well done.

And this years winner of the Bass Chat patience award is.................

Well done Kev!

For those that have asked, hopefully a picture will follow this?

Mods, if this picture breaks any rules, apologies, just trying to clarify for a couple of members. Please remove if not allowed.

More PM's replied to.
Couple of very nice basses offered for trade, but not quite close enough.
Prefer a Fender or Lakland Precision.
Would also consider lightweight/powerful bass rig?
Cheers,
Karl.

See, if I could sell my Rick copy, I would be beating your door down for this, it is exactly what I am after and they always come up at just the wrong time.
No doubt this will be gone today.
Good luck with the sale (I think).

Oh forgot, isn't this the 70's re-issue with slightly narrower neck?
If so, I will be crying very soon, as it is exactly the one that is haunting my dreams!

I haven't had the balls to watch this yet, as I just know Billy will make me feel inadequate.
When I do summon up the courage, I know I will learn from it.
I have just joined an established covers band and had to learn Daddy (thank God for the Songsterr site). That's enough for the moment!
My fingers hurt.
