devinebass Posted October 31, 2008 Share Posted October 31, 2008 (edited) Hi there guys, i'm not sure if i really want to let this go...... but i thought i'd put it out there to see if anyones interested. Its only a couple of years old and is in showroom condition. Its 33" scale neck with ebony fingerboard, aero pickups with pope preamp, olive top with walnut body, its also got mandolin fret wire just like garrisons. I'm the second owner and am only thinking of selling her as i'm now being endorsed by overwater basses so its 'a lot of bass' sitting in the corner of my room not being used! I can't put into words how amazing this bass sounds and feels.... you can get the lowest action on this bass! I'm looking for £4000. The pics i've used were originally taken by the guy i bought the bass from...... i'm a terrible photographer so i thought i'd use his!

Kiwi Posted November 3, 2008 Share Posted November 3, 2008 Hmm, yeah but its a big decision and there's a lot to weigh up before plonking down the moola when viewed in the context of custom instruments, resale values, laws of ever diminishing returns etc. etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kiwi Posted November 4, 2008 Share Posted November 4, 2008 Well I heard today that the "sure thing" job offer that I was expecting has instead turned into a total u-turn and the reasons aren't clear at all. So unfortunately I have to pull out because the cash is going to be more useful than ever now. Good luck with the sale though Scott. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
