Hi folks. Last week I spent £220 on this Explorer Bass. I had the Gibson version for a lot of years and loved it. To me it sounded better and was more balanced than a T-BIRD, yet always looked just as rock. A real "put in the groin and head down" kinda bass. Need to move it on very quickly as a bass chatter has put something up that is on my very long time need list. The Explorer needs to help fund it. So come on you young bucks/buckesses, you know you want to look this cool. It was made in the UNSUNG factory in Korea in 2003. Few nicks on headstock/body and some buckle rash. Not perfect but nothing unusual, it's been gigged. 3 way pick up selector, volume/volume/tone controls. Always liked the brass nut on my Gibbo. Hopefully pictures will come up. £160 cash, pick up obviously preffered but I will deliver to you free within 50 miles of Wigan, otherwise probably about £20/£25 to parcel force it. The above price reflects the need to move it quickly so I can get the other one I am desperate for. If it doesnt go quickly, I will keep and add some black covered strings, black rotaries and black scratchplate so it will be a bit, er, black. Cheers Karl. Oh by the way, you can check my limited evil bay feedback, it's Karl5066.

*&%£er it!

Hiya pal1972. Is this the model with the slimmer neck (jazz size I think)? Cheers, Karl.

Well done mate, it was gorgeous. Now, wheres my kleenex?

PM'd kinda bump.

OK, sorry to Ian, but please, nobody buy this until I sell my Epiphone Explorer bass. Hoist by my own petard, but that would be a bump then.

pm'd by me as well.

Well done, wish you all the very best. Try Steinberger/ Hohner?

Thank Jaco that was sold before I saw it.

Many thanks Dangerboy. I'm working on it, cheers, Karl.

Hello Dangerboy. I am very close to having a punt, so some answers if you would be so kind. Is the truss rod working? Are all the electrics good, pick ups working individual and together. What is the action like at 1, 12 or 17 frets. Whats it like to play (subjective I know) Would you accept a cheque(I would happily wait for it to clear) as it's a long way from Wigan to London. Sorry for the dumb questions, it's just I'm dumb. Cheers, Karl.

Thats the poodles privates. Thinking very strongly about reasons for Jazz number 4. Would be less thinking if I hadn't moved from Falkirk to Wigan.

PM'd

Oh dear, movement in underwear that brings back vague memories. STUNNING.

Have a bump on me, whilst I consider the consequences of lying to the wife about little it cost.

Many thanks D Cheers, Karl. PS the Geddy and the 'Ray both look gorgeous.

Hi gafbass02, sorry no deal, just info if you would be so kind. I have a standard geddy, did you get the lovely tortie plate made to fit, and if so by who please? Good luck finding your trade, Cheers, Karl.

Hi thedonutman. Sorry to be pain. What sort of condition? Close up photos if poss? What model is the Peavey exactly, coz I tried harmony and couldnt find peavey max 450 nitro bass, probably because it's not been reviewed. Cheers, Kar.

Think that may be the made in China ones, whilst I think Kevs is a made in USA. PS Kev, 1. Have you still got the castors that come with it? 2. Hope to be in touch next week, fingers crossed ( and patience strained, certainly on my part) Karl.
