Hmmm, I have a lump of cash coming soon which I was hoping to get a second hand EB-0 or EB-3 with but they appear to be as rare as rocking horse sh*te. Perhaps a nice new USA P-Bass for £499 will soften my GAS...

My short scale strings and patch lead arrived super quick from Stringbusters as well, +1 from me

Not an eBay one but has anyone seen this?? [url="http://www.wizardguitars.com/BassGuitars.php?product=847&action=moreinfo&offset=20"]http://www.wizardguitars.com/BassGuitars.p...o&offset=20[/url] Actually looks in very good nick...

I think (as it seems most do) that they should only be in cherry red and nothing else. That is only fair. I have seen a couple of black ones that look quite tasty though.

yeah - the big ugly gash (ooer!) in the body to stick that in put me off as well. Shame as it was a nice bass and a proper luthier could have sorted the neck out with a bit of luck. Im more in the market for an EB-0 tbh... maybe... I may be getting some cash soon and a Gibbo Jack Bruce sound is about the only other thing ive lusted after since my teens!

thats bizarre, to have such an enormous cutaway for a 4 stringer...

why do people dig great big holes in basses to stick new p/ups in them?

I love em. Have a 76' Musicmaster and its like going on a nice holiday playing it after playing my Ric! Have got major GAS for an EB-0 but just cant justify the expense at the mo!

Ill just put in a word of approval here for James - top man, v good keyboard player indeed and now fronting this band, who have been on local radio etc etc. Good name around the area and gigs booked so hey you bassplayers out there - give the chap a call!

i do stay away from eBay as much as I can these days after a bad experience once, but hey, theres no harm in looking is there....

Somethings not quite right here.

Q: serial number? A: Yes LOL

Unique!

I really dont see the point of continually relisting that

I like it a lot. But I like Gibsons and have serious GAS for an EB-0, which might explain why i like it. Aint a big fan of LED's though..? Never ever crossed my mind to own a bass with LED's

Ummm, Hysteria by Muse...? I Am The Resurrection by The Stone Roses Gigantic by The Pixies there's a whole load more. +1 for *anything* by the Stranglers :-)

that. is. lovely. I would seriously consider buying a new Ric to accompany my 4001 because of that colour. I am also a bit of sucker for burst colours... and thats a beaut!

erm is now the right time to ask Mr Hall to start making a few more 4080's? Im sure he's never been asked that before... heheeh :-) Seriously - its a matter of consumerism. If you want one, and dont agree with the price, dont buy it. Simple really. I think its a hefty rise.... but we all know if you realllly want something you tend to find the money for it (Ask the Shuker posse! Hehe!). I personally wouldnt pay for any bass out of my price range.

That is a beautiful piece of kit. Fact

actually, after looking at those two I really should clean them sometime lol

erm, did someone ask for... the 80's????

Hmmm, missed this thread before! +4 from me

them Ric's are lovely :-) EDIT : actually on second look that BB is quite horny as well
