wotsy Posted March 8, 2014 Share Posted March 8, 2014 Really like the looks of this bass: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/331143820399?redirect=mobile Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul S Posted March 8, 2014 Share Posted March 8, 2014 Me too. I'd say it is about £150 too dear, though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wotsy Posted March 8, 2014 Author Share Posted March 8, 2014 Yeh I thought 300 seemed a bit steep. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bassassin Posted March 8, 2014 Share Posted March 8, 2014 That's a two-pickup version of a Force 8 BBR: http://www.matsumoku.org/models/washburn/catalogs/bbr/bbr_pg2_web.jpg.html £300 is somewhat steep, he'd realistically get £200-ish in a straight £1 start auction, I should think. I do love the BBR colour scheme but it's so 80s it hurts! Jon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bassassin Posted March 9, 2014 Share Posted March 9, 2014 Oh - price now dropped to £270 - looks like someone's earwigging! Still too dear, if you're listening.... J. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wotsy Posted March 9, 2014 Author Share Posted March 9, 2014 If you drop it down to, let's say 130-ish, you might have a buyer! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paul S Posted March 9, 2014 Share Posted March 9, 2014 Last man standing... I'd go all the way up to, oooh, £150... Jon - active? The bass, not you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/quote] I want no part of this so-called "activity"! Too much like hard work... The through-neck Force 40 in the Washburn ad has 2-band parametric eq so this might be the same although it looks like it lacks one of the switches. Looks like the seller's correct about the model number - after uncharacteristically paying attention I noticed the actual bass itself is in this catalogue pic: [url="http://www.matsumoku.org/models/washburn/catalogs/1985/pg4.html"]http://www.matsumoku...s/1985/pg4.html[/url] No info on the circuitry, though.

Paul S Posted March 9, 2014 Share Posted March 9, 2014 Ta. Nice thing. If it were £150 in Crack Converters I'd probably buy it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
