Kev Posted August 9, 2008 Share Posted August 9, 2008 (edited) read the full story here [url="http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=24852&st=0"]http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=24852&st=0[/url] and the pics here [url="http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=25063"]http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=25063[/url] as i said in the original topic i dont think id use the bass much even if i got the electrics fixed, it wont uproot my stingray. When i was making my half arsed attempt at soldering the pot on last night, i did manage at one point to get it to work (sounded very good too), and so that kinda proves that everythin else in there [i]should[/i] be okay, and that its just a few loose connections. il sell for what i bought it for, £204 + shipping. in all likliness its gunna take 5 mins with a soldering iron to fix it, but i personally aint touching one again after how stressed i got last night (no idea how annoying it is to get it working and then lose it!), so im willing to pass on the ebay bargain on here. The bass retailed for £850 i think back in the early nineties when new, and the led's would have cost more to install than what im selling the bass for anyways! let me know if theres any interest Edited August 10, 2008 by BassManKev Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kev Posted August 9, 2008 Author Share Posted August 9, 2008 (edited) i think this is pretty much sold, had lots of interest but im just waiting for someone to confirm, not got back to me yet tho... just to let you know, though, i noticed that it was quite obvious why there was no sound, one of the jack connections was loose and was in contact with the led switch..... so i switched on the iron again and connected the cable so just to clarify, the bass does indeed work again, its just the tone pot that needs connecting Edited August 9, 2008 by BassManKev Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stan_da_man Posted August 10, 2008 Share Posted August 10, 2008 If they can get the bass fixed, then they will enjoy landing a bargain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kev Posted August 10, 2008 Author Share Posted August 10, 2008 he will certainly get it fixed i would think, hopefully it will be as simple as soldering the pot on i sold it on here for the bargain i bought it for as a good will gesture, i could have put it on ebay and got quite a bit more, hopefully might help try n change some peoples very low opinion of me on here Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
