I'm sorry to bump this back to the top but I do feel compelled to post. I did withdraw the bass due to CK's comments. Now by no means am I any expert on Moduli so I cannot say he is wrong or not but if anybody (especially somebody in his position) that posts a comment about a body/neck issue it would certainly give me doubts about buying it. Now I'm sure that discrediting the bass or the sale of the bass was not CK's intention but a casual comment from a fellow bassist but like I said it might put somebody off buying it. I priced it for what I thought would be a quick sale as I didn't really need a fretless and I have bills to settle but I wasn't prepared to drop the price any further. I've been in touch with The Gallery who are now going to get it fretted and I'll probably keep it. Cheers. Paul

[quote name='Rayman' post='493573' date='May 20 2009, 06:39 PM'] I haven't forgoten mate. Like I said, with my track record for turning stuff over, I could never hand on heart say anything is for ever, but I do like this bass an awful lot, so I live in hope. How are you getting on with the Shuker/ACG basses you went to check out?[/quote] I came home with the Shuker in the end but if the ACG was a 4 string it would have been a very tough decision. Seriously I hope the bass is a keeper and I'm delighted you're getting on with it.

At this rate I'll have no basses left! Anyway I've decided to put the Corvette up for grabs. Its a 1996 bubinga/wenge model with passive MEC pups. The neck is very slim, lots slimmer than the Thumb I used to have and the frets are great. The bubinga is lovely with only a little play ware around the pups. There is a bit of rash on the back along with some small indentations but nothing horrendous and it doesnt look half as bad as it dose on the photo. I only have a soft case so no posting. I can meet any buyer within reasonable distance. There is a strap with the strap locks fitted. Dont miss out on this one, its a good'un! Paul

Good luck with the sale, I dont think you'll need it at that price.[/quote] Thanks and all the best

I'm reluctantly putting my fretless up for grabs. I love playing the bass but because 1. I'm useless on a fretless and 2. It'll never get used in the band it seem stupid to keep it for the occasional home noodling. Its in great shape and has one of the most unusual finishes I've seen, photos dont capture just how lovely it is. Its a blueburst on quilted maple with an ebony board. EMG PJ 18v pups and recently strung with Status half wounds. It sounds superb even in my clumsy hands! I dont have a hard case for shipping so its collection or meet up's (within reasonable distance). Any questions just ask. I'm not looking for any trades thanks. Cheers Paul

I hate low actions. When I have to I take my basses to a techie for any work thats needed and he always sets them up. To be fair he dose a wonderful job but he sets it up to how HE likes basses. (Very fast). So on return home I undo all his good work!

For sale is my '78 Precision. Overall great condition for its age with just a little 'mojo' but not over the top. S8 serial number and not the heaviest one I've played but its no real light weight. Its a good solid bass with no issues and plays and sounds like a good P should. I find myself using my '73 Precision now as I've got to like its more mellow tone and realistically I cannot afford to have two old Precisions. Now I've run out of hard cases so I wouldn't want to post it but I'm happy to deliver or meet up within reasonable distance. Any questions just ask! Cheers - Paul

Will had my SQ Squier off me. Paid in a flash! Many thanks.

The Gallery have one (fretted) that I've got GAS for. Their asking £1200, you'll probably get it for less and it'll have a warranty. The new prices are crazy and the depreciation is frightening.
