[quote name='Chambo' timestamp='1357292243' post='1920360'] Used to have one of these and I thought it was great. I stripped mine and was surprised that they are solid wood and not ply [/quote] Aye, ditto. My first bass was a Sunn Mustang. Better than subsequent, more expensive basses that I owned. I should have kept it really. I heard somewhere that these were made in India from Fender parts. Not sure if that is correct though. Either way it's a nice bass.

Another price drop bump [b]£250[/b]

[quote name='maldy' timestamp='1356013534' post='1905708'] I meant to say that I didn't feel the need to vary the tone. I hardly ever tinker with it, because it has a good standard sound.[/quote] Ditto 90% of the time I play mine with the eq set flat. Beautiful Dirty Blonde BTW ... really lovely.

For trade is my [b]Warwick Thumb NT 4[/b] Trade - Ideally I'm after a straight swap for a [b]Streamer Stage 1[/b] or a [b]Streamer Stage 2[/b]. I'd also consider a [b]Dolphin pro 1[/b] (neck-thru). Value-wise, I'd put this bass at £1200, although I've decided not to sell. I'll just wait it out for the right Streamer. [u]The Bass[/u][list] [*]Made in Germany in 2000 [*]4 string [*]Bubinga body, Ovankol/ Bubinga neck, Wenge fretboard [*]Neck-thru-body construction [*]MEC J/J pickups [*]Active (or passive) 3-way MEC electronics [*]Black hardware [*]Bell brass frets (26 frets) [*]Just-a-nut II [/list] [u]Condition[/u] Structurally the bass is totally sound, the electronics and hardware are in perfect working order, and the neck is true. The action is currently set medium-low. The bass is all original with the exeption of the jack socket which I changed for a superior Neutrik one when the original packed in. Cosmetically she is in very good condition. There are only very minor signs of wear, and a tiny 2mm ding on the back of the top horn (shown in picture). I've waxed it regularly and generally kept her out of harms way. I've really looked after this bass. The only other thing to note is that one of the adjustment screws on the nut doesn't tighten, so the nut is supported internally with a titanium shim (This can be removed very easily if needs be). The nut is solid and does its job, so I've never bothered replacing it with the superior Just-a-nut 3. To be frank, the Just-a-nut 2 is a piece of crap. The designers at Warwick must have had a brain-fart with that bad boy. [u]Dimensions[/u][list] [*]Neck thickness at 1st fret - 20.7mm [*]Neck thickness at 12th fret - 25.1mm [*]Neck thickness at 20th fret - 26.5mm [*]Neck width at nut -38.5 mm [*]Neck width at 12th fret - 55mm [*]String spacing at bridge - adjustable [*]Weight - 4.7kg / 10lb4oz [*]Scale length - 34" [/list] The bass comes with a slightly shabby but fully functional, super padded, heavy-duty Warwick Rockbag like this one ...

If you're interested or have any questions drop me a message. Here's a link to a video which explains the electronics, controls, sounds, etc ...

The last two digits of the serial number tell the year of manufacture.

[b]Akai MPC 2000 [/b](sampler / sequencer) This is a classic piece of kit, great for both production and live work. It's in excellent condition / perfect working order. Fully expanded 32mb memory.

I'm surprised this is still around. Such lovely basses are these. Crazy to think that Mexican Fenders sell for this price. This bass is superior in every way ... only my humble opinion, of course.
