Bump as its now for sale or trade.

Bah - No matter how i slice it, I can't justify buying the SX. I've already bought 3 basses since Xmas and I think this one, no matter how teeny and keenly priced, might be some kind of tipping point! The shortscale club thread at TalkBass has loads of info on modding these into some pretty serious creatures by the way!

Sunday bumperoonie?

It's in perfect condition having only left my study to go downstairs to the living room a few times. No dings, scuffs or even much in the way of fingermarks. My inherited digital stubbiness coupled with my acquired low ability, make it a bit pointless my currently keeping this lovely instrument, as I simply cannot do it any sort of justice. This is a shame because it looks and sounds beautiful, but hopefully someone else can give it a kind and loving home, or even scare the hell out of it, by giving it the life it deserves, up on a stage somewhere. I was looking to trade for something shortscale, but have now acquired two which suit me very well so I'm now looking for £300 ONO or something 'interesting' in the trade department. Doesn't have to be a bass I'm based in [b]West Gloucestershire[/b] and am happy to travel a reasonable distance to make a trade, or package securely and send by courier. Cheers, Julian
