Daveweb Posted July 27, 2016 Share Posted July 27, 2016 (edited) Gordon Smith Gypsy Bass in very good condition. Mid 80's, hand carved body with a through neck, custom hand wound adjustable pickups, each individual pickup can be raised or lowered as desired to create the perfect sound, Schaller machine heads and a brass nut. Extremely clean sound with virtually no hum so excellent as a recording bass but equally suitable for live work. Everything is straight and true, only a couple of minor dings here and there but generally in excellent order. Looking for [b]£550[/b] collected, but open to offers. [b]No trades[/b]. Any questions, let me know!

three Posted July 28, 2016 Share Posted July 28, 2016 Wow, really don't see many of these around - looks to be in fantastic condition too. Where are you based? Most of these seem to be in the north west Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Daveweb Posted August 22, 2016 Author Share Posted August 22, 2016 Bump. Now price dropped to £450. Last chance to grab a bargain on this ultra rare piece of loveliness before I pull it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
W1_Pro Posted August 23, 2016 Share Posted August 23, 2016 Why has this not sold? It's lovely, unusual, and a steal at this price. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daveweb Posted September 5, 2016 Author Share Posted September 5, 2016 Hi W1_Pro. Really not sure why it hasn't sold. Like you say, it's an absolute steal at this price and is a quality piece of kit. Maybe people just don't realise what it is? Bump. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Daveweb Posted October 6, 2016 Author Share Posted October 6, 2016 Bump. C'mon people. Surely there is a collector out there that doesn't have a Gordon Smith and won't get the chance again. And, yes I did call you surely Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Macbass68 Posted October 11, 2016 Share Posted October 11, 2016 Hi. Is this still for sale.? What is the 'damage' on the sixth pic down? I can't make out what sort of ding it is? Thanks a lot, Mac Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daveweb Posted October 13, 2016 Author Share Posted October 13, 2016 Hi Macbass68, It is still for sale but only until this weekend as I'm moving away. I'm not sure what the damage is in that pic, it was like that when I bought the bass second hand. Looks like it might be a failed attempt to re-site the jack socket but not sure?
