dangerboy Posted August 10, 2011 Share Posted August 10, 2011 (edited) Up for sale my favourite bargain do-anything bass. Japanese made. Serial number makes it a 1985 model. Has a powerful active EQ that can turn it into a real thunderer down low! All working, in nice condition with the odd nick and scratch. Nothing major for a bass of this age. All original as far as I can tell. Fitted with brand new batteries! SOLD Sorry abut the pictures (especially the reflections) - hard to get a decent photo of something so black!

tazza1 Posted August 11, 2011 Share Posted August 11, 2011 Don't do it - you'll regret it when these are selling for large sums of money!! I've got one of the natural finish ones, the necks are nice & comfortable to play & they sound great. Bump for a great bass. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had one of these when they first came out in 80's around about the time I was wearing make-up and playing in a "New Romantic" band and was the same age as my daughter is now! Enough sickly nostalgia! They are great basses, with a good range of tones from the active EQ. I loved it at the time, as I never had to go back to my amp to get a different sound. Great for slapping too! I have way too many guitars at the moment, or I would buy it. A brilliant retro 80's instrument at a brilliant price! Good luck with the sale!

bassninja Posted August 16, 2011 Share Posted August 16, 2011 Mullet-type all analogue Vox/Carlsbro/Session bump from 1986. Had a pair of these (a fretless for my 18th birthday) & can still remember the ads for it in 'G***arist' magazine. Very cool, someone will be delighted with this...
