  1. These are great basses, if I was asked to recommend a new bass player for a good quality bass this would be high on my list. I am very lucky in having an embarassment of riches in the 4 string world. This bass is in tip yop shape, no scratches or buckle rash. Strap locks fitted and a new set of strings.
    As far as posting to Europe, I think the cost would almost be high on what is a budget price bass.

  2. I have an item on BC http://basschat.co.uk/topic/161608-cort-gb4-custom-trade-wanted-for-similar-quality-5-string
    You may not be looking for a bass trade, but it's on a one out one in basis for me at the moment. If you're not interested in a trade, good luck with the sale.

[i]Hi, I have this on BC at the moment [i][url="http://basschat.co.uk/topic/161608-cort-gb4-custom-trade-wanted-for-similar-quality-5-string/page__hl__cort__fromsearch__1"]http://basschat.co.uk/topic/161608-cort-gb4-custom-trade-wanted-for-similar-quality-5-string/page__hl__cort__fromsearch__1[/url][/i][/i]
    [i]How about a trade plus £200 from me?[/i]

    After deciding not to sell one 4 string, I find I am now a little too blessed in the 4 string world, and as my last trade dropped the 5 string stable by one, to redress the balance I have a Cort GB4 custom in tip-top shape, it's this one [url="http://www.cortguitars.com/_webapp_3760774/GB4-Custom"][color=#0f72da]http://www.[/color][color=red][size=4]cort[/size][/color][color=#0f72da]guita...0774/GB4-Custom[/color][/url]
    I can take pics if needed but it is exactly the same as the one shown on the link. The only difference is I fitted strap locks.
    In feel it's very similar to a jazz with a thin neck, fast action and has some balls with both single coil and humbucker pickups, active electronics.
    So have you a similar quality 5 string you wish to trade? I live in Milton Keynes but travel around a fair bit so could come to you if required.
    If anyone wanted to buy it I would be looking around the £200 market, that's what I paid for it. I have just fitted a new set of Rotosound 66 strings. It has been used in rehearsals and taken to gigs as a backup, but no real wear.

    Thanks for looking.

  5. I went to the NEC gig and noticed that all the black jazz now had Pearl block inlays, has he changed the necks on all his basses then? From another post someone spotted a fender custom shop logo and they were credited in the programme so maybe Ged got some new toys? From where we were, behind and to the left of the sound desk the sound was fine, I head someone come down from the sides and say they couldn't hear the guitar too well, they keys were pretty high in the mix when used, but they played like demons.

    [quote name='toneknob' post='1245283' date='May 26 2011, 10:14 AM']I was at the O2 last night, brilliant show - I was in the 2nd row right in front of Ged. Got a load of pics, I'll edit and post the good ones later.

    I think he played about 5 different Jazzes over the course of the night, I can't remember when each was used and for what song, but here's some facts I do know - can anyone else flesh out the rest?
    1. Black signature bass with new neck (pearloid slab markers, white neck binding)
    2. Drop-D tuned Jazz for Stick It Out
    3. Red Jazz pictured above for 2112, I think tuned DGCF

    No fretless this time - as used on Malignant Narcissim from the last tour. Any ideas about the others?

    The steampunk setting was cool - even the bass/midi pedals got the treatment.[/quote]

  6. 'I like the pearloid inlays but I'm a huge Geddy Lee fan so I would love to have the black blocks/inlays instead to go with the white pickguard and badass II bridge I fitted to the black body'

    I've just seen Rush on the Time Machine tour and Geddy now has Pearl inlays on all his mapel necks! I was shocked as I've just got a squire with the Black inlays on a mapel neck. So if you want the Geddy look, you're there my friend.
