(Need to find screws). Had a pro set up by Simon at Cardiff Guitars just 2 months ago, also had a new set of Ernie Ball Slinky (total cost of £100.00). Hardly touched since. Bass plays and sounds like a dream with a great neck, the only reason I am looking to trade is I have just purchased a Classic Stingray which from now on will be my main 4 stringer. Bass has the Flea bridge but no mutes fitted, these can be purchased from the Ernie Ball site for £22.50 [url="http://www.ernieball.co.uk/products/productdetail/Music+Man+Stingray+4+Mute+Kit/part_number=M05502/574.1.4.3.100804.0.0.0.0?pp=8"]http://www.ernieball...04.0.0.0.0?pp=8[/url]& Usual few very, very minor knocks on headstock and body but considering bass is 15 years old in great condition. Have seen guitars a year old with more. Finish is gloss/matte. Comes with Stagg case. At the moment have packaging from my new bass so if shipped will pack with this also. [size=5]Only interested in a sale. [size=4]Offers in the region of [s]£750.00 [/s]plus cost of postage[/size]. [/size] [size=5][b][color=#0000CD][i][u]Final[/u][/i] price is now £700.00 plus postage, or cost of fuel for delivery[/color].[/b][/size] [size=5][size=3]Will be removing post next Thursday at the latest, going away for a short break and won't be back in time to guarantee postage. [/size][/size] [size=5][size=3]Will repost sometime in the New Year. [/size][/size] [size=5][size=3]This will then be at my original asking price of [b]£800.00 [/b]including postage to Mainland UK.[/size][/size] Edited April 6, 2012 by wal4string Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt_UK Posted November 1, 2011 Share Posted November 1, 2011 Wow, that is a stunner. Can't interest you in a Warwick SSI 4 in natural? Worth a try Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wal4string Posted November 1, 2011 Author Share Posted November 1, 2011 She is a blonde babe. Each to his own. But sorry have never got on with Warwick's (each to his own again). Really in no rush to move the bass as I know I will most likely regret it. But a fretless would lesson the loss when I start sliding those harmonics up and down the neck. At the moment been transcribing some of Pino's basslines and a fretless would make the enjoyable task a lot easier. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wal4string Posted November 13, 2011 Author Share Posted November 13, 2011 (edited) Descided to hold on to the Musicman case. Now comes with a [i][b]Stagg[/b][/i] case. Have also reduced sale price by £50.00 to reflect this. Would reduce price further if someone would throw me an [b]MXR M288[/b].

wal4string Posted November 16, 2011 Author Share Posted November 16, 2011 Folding readies would be good as long as there is enough of them. Could get to Ross on the weekend at the earliest. PM me and we can talk. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I knew you didn't want to pay more than the asking price, I wish. I also guessed you must be the proud owner of one. In no hurry to move so also not willing to except the crazy low offers I have been getting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stingrayPete1977 Posted November 20, 2011 Share Posted November 20, 2011 Any idea what the pickup route was opened up for Wal and is everything else back to standard including the preamp and stuff? Nice looking neck and I love a Flea bridge! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wal4string Posted November 20, 2011 Author Share Posted November 20, 2011 (edited) When I first had the bass, there was a slight buzz when I listened to the bass through headphones while using a Palmer Pocket Amp. I wrongly put this down to a shielding problem so I shielded the pickup and control cavity with copper tape. When I took it to Cardiff guitars Simon told me it was due to a faulty input jack so he replaced it which fixed the buzz. The shielding tape is still visible around the pickup but there is no reason why this can't be removed. Everything else is standard.
