MrTea Posted January 20, 2018 Share Posted January 20, 2018 I know nothing about Scott Whitley or Big Country but I do like the look of these and quite like the paint job. I know it means nothing until the last minute in an eBay auction but I’m amazed this still has no bids ... https://rover.ebay.com/rover/0/0/0?mpre=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ebay.co.uk%2Fulk%2Fitm%2F263428133008 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MrTea Posted January 21, 2018 Author Share Posted January 21, 2018 I think it was supposed to end today and had no bids. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spectoremg Posted January 21, 2018 Share Posted January 21, 2018 As an early Big Country fan; who the flip is Scott Whitley? And why all the references to their third album The Seer on which Tony Butler played bass? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's a Bassist who played with a later version of BC and who designed said Bass Guitar, which is now sold by Chowny.

MWH Posted January 24, 2018 Share Posted January 24, 2018 Hi, i pulled the Seer bass because of so little interest , i was quite surprised because a six string Nevada guitar i also listed worth peanuts had 70 watchers. anyway its gone to a huge Big Country fan so all is Ok, not sure if he can even play bass or putting it on the wall.

MrTea Posted January 24, 2018 Author Share Posted January 24, 2018 Nice to hear it went to a good home! I was also surprised it had no bids - regardless of the Big Country connection you don't see that many SWB-1s going 2nd hand and the starting price seemed reasonable.

MWH Posted January 24, 2018 Share Posted January 24, 2018 Scott Whitley brought it to my home himself and B/Country are appearing at the local Picturedrome a mile from where i live in March, dare'nt go see them now ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheGreek Posted January 25, 2018 Share Posted January 25, 2018 Great basses and with the Scott Whitley connection I saw it flying away - I thought this was going to sell for £700+. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rumple Posted January 25, 2018 Share Posted January 25, 2018 Scott Whitley is also a member on Basschat, plus he does lots of instructional videos on YouTube. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
