Wooks79 Posted December 29, 2013 Posted December 29, 2013 Brilliant for sale post. ticks all the boxes.
Kev Posted December 30, 2013 Posted December 30, 2013 Can you clarify your asking price for the bass please, as your post seems to imply that was just how much it was new?? Apologies if I have misread
molan Posted December 30, 2013 Posted December 30, 2013 Some pics and maybe even a few basic details might help. . .
Geek99 Posted December 30, 2013 Posted December 30, 2013 Mention of any damage, changes ; that kind of thing. Nice photos though
karlfer Posted December 30, 2013 Posted December 30, 2013 He was on until about 11.30 last night and his previous advert for a Sandberg basic fretless was fine, so guess it's just a matter of time? I would also guess collection will be from Northamptonshire.
Thunderbird Posted December 30, 2013 Posted December 30, 2013 Maybe its just hard coming out the closet? lol

Talbo Posted December 30, 2013 Author Posted December 30, 2013 Just added a link in the original add. Bought roughly 3 months ago, 2 gigs only, mint condish, case, tools etc etc.

Talbo Posted December 30, 2013 Author Posted December 30, 2013 Sorrry wasn't paying attention. I am asking £2200. Thanks for looking.
bassbluestew Posted December 30, 2013 Posted December 30, 2013 Sorry if I'm being dumb, but it's the same finish as in the video ? Oly white, tort, rosewood ??? Thanks Stew
Talbo Posted December 30, 2013 Author Posted December 30, 2013 Exactly the same bass as the vid. Plus I have bought a white scratch for it. You would get that and the original tort one too.
Talbo Posted December 31, 2013 Author Posted December 31, 2013 Ill add some. Though it look exactly the same as the vid. No damage at all!
wateroftyne Posted December 31, 2013 Posted December 31, 2013 I'd *really* like to know the weight :-)
karlfer Posted December 31, 2013 Posted December 31, 2013 To be honest Talbo, if you want somebody to spend £2200 you are going to have to make a bit more effort. I say the following to help you. Photos. I certainly wouldn't spend that amount without decent photos. Weight, ask girlfriend, wife, her mates, see if they have luggage scales. Ask a fisherman you know if they have any scales. Piece of ribbon/cotton tround the nut, gently hang off scales. Good luck with your sale, I would say it's a great bass but I've not actually seen it.
Talbo Posted December 31, 2013 Author Posted December 31, 2013 Thats a bit aggro, have you been drinking!?? Pics tomorrow. Not sure what the deal is with needing an exact weight!?! The official weight is 4.10 kg - I dont have a set of scales in my house AT ALL, so I cant weight the bass to the nearest gram Sorry!
wateroftyne Posted December 31, 2013 Posted December 31, 2013 The weight is vitally important to those of us with dodgy backs. Anything over 8.5 lbs and I start to struggle. Unfortunately, no two trees are the same, so the 'official' weight is only a guideline. Like I mentioned in my PMs, I'm genuinely interested but I'm not going to drop 2K+ on a bass without a bit of basic info. :-) Good luck with the sale, though.

[/quote] I'd have thought anyone asking over £2K for a used Fender (that isn't a highly desirable vintage) could manage to find a set of scales - they're pretty commonplace items and a lot of people will make a purchase, or not, based on weight. Some pics of the actual instrument are always going to help a sale. Maybe a bit of common civility to an, obviously interested potential purchaser, might not go amiss as well. . . Not that it makes much difference to your detailed description but they are still available new because the 2012 run did not sell out. I know a dealer that has two of them for sale.

[/quote] Neither aggro or drinking, find both comments rather offensive to be honest, but hey, I haven't got a £2200 bass to move. Happy new year to you.
