RhysP Posted February 19, 2017 Share Posted February 19, 2017 It's going very well, thanks for asking. The guy that organises all the music stuff unfortunately left for another job at the end of January, but there is somebody else taking over running it soon.

Beedster Posted March 12, 2017 Share Posted March 12, 2017 In the spirit of Mark's original offer I'd like to offer this bass on the same terms, i.e., a good home with all the same caveats. I bought it from Tom (Tom1946), and it's very nice, but I have about 10 project basses, all Fender fit necks and bodies, that I was hoping I could chop and change this with, but it's not Fender fit (heel is far deeper). No idea what any of the parts are, but it's an alright bass and well worth the £175 I paid. Happy to courier [URL=http://s80.photobucket.com/user/Beedster/media/IMG_2526_zpsuzm3s1ja.jpg.html][IMG]http://i80.photobucket.com/albums/j199/Beedster/IMG_2526_zpsuzm3s1ja.jpg[/IMG][/URL] [URL=http://s80.photobucket.com/user/Beedster/media/IMG_2525_zpsxnoio90e.jpg.html][IMG]http://i80.photobucket.com/albums/j199/Beedster/IMG_2525_zpsxnoio90e.jpg[/IMG][/URL] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tredders Posted March 12, 2017 Author Share Posted March 12, 2017 That's a very cool thing to do, Chris. If someone deserving isn't able to collect this, I'm happy to pickup the cost of the courier. As you said previously, I don't see why you should get all the glory 😊 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've had a couple of PMs from folks saying they'd like to have it as a raffle prize at upcoming bashes, but it worries me that on that basis it could end up only pulling in a few quid, and going to a BCer who'll probably end up selling it here again! To be honest I'd prefer it to go directly to a good cause rather than indirectly, I just like the idea of a needly kid somewhere having the bass, hope that makes sense?

Kit is always hard to come by so a donation like this really does impact in a massive way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tredders Posted April 17, 2017 Author Share Posted April 17, 2017 Don't forget that if it needs couriering (is that even a word?!), I'll pick up the cost, just as Chris did with my Steinberger. Chris - just let me know. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
