  1. A nudge up for someone wanting a couple more pics - now added. Offers? Trades? 50p fora cup of tea?
  2. [quote name='alexisonfire' post='847569' date='May 25 2010, 03:12 PM']Ok so my credit card bill is a bit silly so Im looking at moving on my JM4. It would have been my precision if it didn't have sentimental value. I'm at work right now so haven't got pics to upload, here's a link to the origin post. It's in the same condition as I bought it back then. I'll upload my own tonight after a restring and a think. [url="http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=70894&hl="]http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=70894&hl=[/url] I'm looking at £650 shipped, ok I know I bought it for £500 but he only reason I'm selling it is to clear this bill, otherwise I'll be grasping onto it with both hands while kicking off Barclays with my feet! I'm gonna restring it and upload my own pics tonight (fresh strings might change my view on selling). Thanks for looking.[/quote] Good luck with it. I got one in black a couple of months from another BCer. It's a cracking instrument, a delight to play and fantastically well put together. It's currently displaced my 76 Jazz as my go to bass, which says a lot. At £650 that's a pretty keen deal too - recommended.
  3. Sunny Monday bump. Anyone fancying this piece of 80s japwood?
  4. Any chance of posting your myspace link?
  5. It's a late night Thursday bump. Something for the weekend?
  6. Good luck there - hope you get some joy with this! That was my first bass, and it stood me in very good stead back in the day - solid little performer and built like a tank. I'm trying to sell what was only my second bass - another Westone, but a Super Headless with a really nice birds eye grain...

  7. [quote name='gnasher1993' post='842639' date='May 19 2010, 10:42 PM']Bump. £40?[/quote] I might be in for £40 - just let me check my moolah and will PM you if it's a go.
  8. Would totally vouch for the playability and quality of these basses - recently bought a PM4 Supreme with block inlays. The neck is as nice and quick as my 76 jazz and the range of tones is super impressive. This sounds a very keen price too - a good deal for someone out there.
  9. [quote name='fraff' post='833274' date='May 10 2010, 05:16 PM']Sorry, 'fraid not. If I was to trade for a bass, I'd be looking for a back up to other things - I'm a fan of Jazz shaped necks and thinking probably a Squire CV Jazz or a Precision Special. But really I'm after putting the money towards some backline - a decent (for the money) 4x10, 2x10, 2x12 or an Orange Bass Terror. Or Ampeg usual floats my boat! Offers welcome if anyone fancies trading any of that lot![/quote] It's a great bass to play this, with a lovely feeling speedy neck, and a great birdseye grain. C'mon, a bump for the weekend?
  10. That's a very very handsome beast! My 77 USA Jazz was refinished many years ago in a green which, if all had gone to plan, would have been this just colour (minus the sparkle) - turned out a bit lighter, but I've grown to love it! If I hadn't just bought a Sandberg PM4, didn't already have a really nice Jazz and had £580 spare, I'd bite your hand off. Readers may notice that only one of the above reasons is true. Good luck!

  13. [quote name='cocco' post='833253' date='May 10 2010, 05:04 PM']Damn I love westones. I really want this but have no cash and nothing really to offer as a trade.

  14. [quote name='walbassist' post='833181' date='May 10 2010, 04:12 PM']I had one of those and it was great; the eq is really powerful. I chopped mine in px for a Trace combo at the Bass Centre around that time, so this may even be my old bass?![/quote] It's so long ago now I can't remember where I got this but I think it was when I was living in Wales, so quite possibly John Ham's in Swansea. Wonder if that's still there!

    [quote name='walplayer' post='830693' date='May 7 2010, 02:34 PM']Final bump!!! Before i withdraw it/break it for parts [/quote] Steady! PM'ed
  16. [quote name='Chris2112' post='829992' date='May 6 2010, 08:11 PM']I remember playing one of these at Howards in Newcastle years ago. Great basses![/quote] Certainly is a nice thing to play. Hung parliament bump btw.
  17. [quote name='EddHytheTown' post='829965' date='May 6 2010, 07:41 PM']Interested at all in an Ibanez Electro Acoustic? [url="http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=73720"]http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=73720[/url] I may be willing to add cash if you are interested. Edd[/quote] Sorry Edd, not me kind of thing, but good luck! Ian
  18. [b]Right then folks, it seems that people ain't feeling the '80s luv for this Westone Super Headless!! Shame, as it's a cracking player, beautiful fast neck, tonally versatile and in great shape. It seems like evil bay is calling, as my recent pedal GAS has left me a bit short and I have to move this one on, or at least trade it, which I can justify to myself in some kind of GAS-driven logic! See below for trade preferences. So, to avoid the dreaded bay, I'm open to offers on this, as long as they are around the [color="#4B0082"][size=4]£270/£275[/size] [/color]mark (ex any delivery - free to collect from London/Colchester). I can get anyone interested pics of the hard case that comes with it too. Any takers before the bay?[/b] I'm looking to sell my Westone Super Headless bass which I bought S/H in about 1986. It's the Walnut finish model - named the Super Headless Bass RC (X910WA) and has 2 Magnaflux RB pickups. I've barely used it since the early 90s when I moved on to Fenders. But it's a versatile sounding beast, and has a very nice slim, fast neck. Generally in excellent condition all over, bar one missing pot as you'll see from the pics and one or two dings - overall great condition for the age though. Comes with the original Westone hard case which is also in good condition. More pics available if anyone fancies a look see. And there's more info on it [url="http://www.westone.info/superheadlessbass.html"]HERE[/url] I'm based in Colchester but regularly rehearse and gig in London, so happy to meet up in London for anyone to take a look. [s]I'm looking for £325 (plus delivery if needed) for this. [/s] [s]I'm looking for [b]£300[/b] (plus delivery if needed) for this.[/s] [b][color="#4B0082"]Would be interested in a Squire Classic Vibe Jazz (particularly if modded) or a Precision Special or something interesting of that ilk, plus a little cash. Or perhaps an Orange Bass Terror head plus money the other way! But really I'm after putting the money towards some backline - a decent (for the money) 4x10, 2x10, 2x12 or an Orange Bass Terror. Or Ampeg usual floats my boat - micro VR anyone?![/color][/b] Someone asked for some pics showing any battle scars, so I've added a couple that show a bit of the buckle rash on the back which is barely there and the only real ding which is on the back bottom edge - it's only 4-5mm across and very shallow. And you can see on the shot with the serial number where there bass has knocked into the odd guitarist on stage. Scars well earned! All in all, this is in excellent condition I'd say, the neck is pristine and a joy to play.
  19. I picked up a PM4 Supreme from another BCer the other week and have to say that they're fantastic playable basses - highly recommended! And that's a great price too. Good luck with it!
  20. I had one of these (factory fretless and unlined) in natural, back in the day. They're great basses. So a headless fretless bump on me - though a bit soon after your own bump admittedly...
  21. [quote name='LeoFender' post='770380' date='Mar 10 2010, 01:53 PM']Oh my That Framus is lovely. Leo[/quote] Thanks Leo The Framus is now with Andy Baxter (andybaxterbass.com) - a good guy, if anyone fancies paying dealer rates for vintage stuff. And sorry GR - my G.A.S. has changed from a Jaguar to a G&L SB-2 or Sandberg I'm seeing later tonight. But best of luck with the sale/trade.
