william64 Posted May 25, 2013 Share Posted May 25, 2013 (edited) I offer my beloved Hohner Professional B2A Headless Bass. I will post the bass to UK or anywhere within Europe. I am looking for Ł260 shipped. It will be safely packed and insured. This bass was made in 1980s, with the professional XLR output as well as standard ¼ jack output. All parts are original, including original glossy black finish. The spec: -neck-thru-body construction with solid maple body and neck -Steinberger® licensed hardware -rosewood fingerboard with 24 frets -original HB pickups -active on/off switch with LED, two volume controls, one tone control -works with 9V battery -the scale length is standard size of 34" (864mm) -weight is only 6.2 lbs (2.8 kg) -fold-out leg rest available The only change on the bass is the lacquer striped from the neck years ago. As the result the back of the neck is very smooth and it is beauty to play it. The bass comes with Hohner Proffessional Carrying Case. It is well used, still, the bass is very safe inside. The case is solid enough and the zipper works. Anything extra? I am a little bit punctual person so I had the bass serviced by a very respected guitar and music-gear electrician. When the bass returned from service, I polished the bass and I cleaned the fingerboard with Dunlop Cleaner. Then I used Dunlop Deep Conditioner for the fingerboard. Now it looks very nice and it is perfectly smooth. Another bonus? I put a new set of strings on! What’s more, I will add one more extra set of new strings!

Thanks for looking. Vilem Edited June 3, 2013 by william64 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
william64 Posted May 25, 2013 Author Share Posted May 25, 2013 (edited) I bought the bass in late 1990s. It has been well played so there is usual finish wear, some dings and scratches. However, as the relic look on this bass is all natural, it gives the bass a magic feel. The neck is clean and very smooth to play. All in all, the bass is in perfect condition and there isn't any issue with it. The truss rod works as it should. The neck is straight. Set up with a low and fast action. The frets are in great shape as you can see in the pictures. Also all electronics and hardware work as they should. For such a small bass it has a great feel and surprisingly full tone. If you need a lightweight bass to protect your back and shoulder then this bass is just for you. Edited May 26, 2013 by william64 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
william64 Posted May 28, 2013 Author Share Posted May 28, 2013 For those who prefer to pick up this instrument in person, I could ask my friends in UK to help. So, one place could be near Milton Keynes and one place could be in London. However, I will have to ask them if they are willing to help. If you are interested, let me know.

william64 Posted May 31, 2013 Author Share Posted May 31, 2013 The bass is a joy to play & sounds great. You will not be disappointed with this instrument! Free shipping to UK and within most European countries! Thanks! Vilem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gapiro Posted June 1, 2013 Share Posted June 1, 2013 Am back in the market for one of these, having sold mine previously due to cash restrictions. However playing in an 80s band kind of lends itself to steinburger style basses..... the bass on these is "HUGE" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lojo Posted June 3, 2013 Share Posted June 3, 2013 Have just had a very nice chat on skype with Vilem, and he has agreed to send the bass through UPS, I am promising to make a bank transfer as soon as it arrives (£260 including P&P) Just posting this as he is very trusting to do this and I hope this helps him feel confident I will do so.

william64 Posted June 3, 2013 Author Share Posted June 3, 2013 (edited) Shaun, it was nice to talk together. As I promised, I will do my best to ship the bass within tomorrow. Then I will let you know the trucking number. Vilem. PS: Dear Neil, as you can read above, the bass is sold now. As I told you, Shaun was the first in line. I am really Sorry. Anyhow, it was nice to talk to you. Vilem Edited June 3, 2013 by william64 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
