  1. Thank you, yes, it's great and will make really happy her new owner. [quote name='Ray' post='716310' date='Jan 18 2010, 09:35 AM']Very nice. I used to own one of these. It was identical to this. Fantastic bass. Best of luck with the sale.[/quote]

    Yamaha BB3000

    A damn great bass. I rocked my BB1600 for years before deciding to get a different sound. Playability is super, and sound is great too! A slap beast. Good luck with the sale!
  3. [quote name='BigBeatNut' post='714637' date='Jan 16 2010, 11:27 AM']That sounds plausible, based on the picture of the 4-string cort and the (to my eye) uneven spacing on the bridge and string retainer. I'd have thought that a 4 -> 5 conversion would not have been easy though ... either sourcing or making parts.[/quote] Considering Cort' relatively low budget, my idea is that they simply slapped a 5 strings bridge and headpiece on a 4 strings body. It's just a theory though...
  4. It's a Cort Defretted and repainted. Interesting five strings bridge though...
  5. GAS stroke so this has to go. It's a Warwick Corvette Proline 5 strings, maple body and golden hardware. Bass is dated 1999. Wenge neck (much sought after slim profile, not the ovangkol baseball bat neck) and fretboard. Conditions : mint as mint could be. Not a single belt rash. Not even light scratches. Active electronics, but standard passive MEC pups. Straplocks already installed. Sound is amazing. Comes with gig bag, manual, warwick truss rod key. [u]Open to partial trades[/u], looking for a Eden or a Markbass head Straight sale price : [s]650£[/s] 600£ + shipping. Thank you!
  6. Wow, it's James Brown in his police photo! Nice and cheap.
  7. does it have a truss rod ?

Sorry to seem blunt, but I would be more than happy to have nothing more to share with a women who acts like this. If you don't need the money, chop the bass slowly, it will help you to feel better. Sorry for the nonsense, but I've been through similar situations. Bump for the bass anyway
  9. Hello John, I live in Italy, and I've asked you about the Zon on the Warwick forum some months ago. Bye!
  10. I've been always conceptually interested in the Zon basses, but I'd love to try one before buying it, just to avoid (as happened dozens times) to put the hands on an instrument and to be completely disappointed. Too bad I live far away... Free bump for the Zon anyway!
  11. [quote name='thepurpleblob' post='697562' date='Dec 31 2009, 09:32 PM']Don't you just hate those people.... "I wasn't sure if I was interested in playing bass so I bought a Zon"!![/quote] I think the worst are "my son wanted to start playing a bass so I bought him an Eden rig and a brand new Fodera as a startup kit..."
  12. three frets and a black fretboard away from my dream MTD free bump for someone's next new beauty anyway!
  13. I-must-drop-the-credit-card. I-don't-need-another-bass. I-wanted-a-MTD-24-frets. I-have-not-seen-this-ad. free bump for this amazing bass!
  14. Pete, you have a PM
  15. Serial number ?? Looks like it does miss the original rear cover plate

    Try posting a price, maybe someone will be interested in with a suitable trade once there is an idea of an asked price
  17. Photos please! Looks like it's a fretless though...
  18. I'm almost buying an old AFR bass - single piezo for each monorail bridge, but the owner says that when he switches to piezo pickup, the volume of the B string is always lower than the one of the other strings. I have no experience with piezos, so I'm wondering if the volume problem issue is just a misplacement of the piezo or if an almost dead pickup can have a partial volume. Thank you
  19. is it a wooden curbow or has the standard lutite fretboard ?
  20. you have a PM
  21. Where's the asking price ?
  22. Looks like there is a god for bass players. I had three PAINTINGS sent from england. The artist sent the three wrapped in bubble wrap and paper and through regular mail. No carto, nothing rigid. Imagine three large boxes in the containers of the standard mail... Of course one painting was ripped, the other had an incision on it. Idiot, ah, so idiot... [quote name='Delberthot' post='307573' date='Oct 16 2008, 08:18 AM']The worst packaging I ever had was with a 1979 Rickenbacker 4000. It arrived in an old gig bag with a burst zip that didn't fasten at all. the seller held the bass in the bag with brown tape wrapped round it. How it survived I will never know.[/quote]
