So I just got this (see New Bass Day thread) at a bargain price and never got the chance to gig it, now the band has folded. ARGH!

 

PLEASE give it a good home!

 

It's an Elwood L (so chambered) with Delano pickups and Glockenklang EQ - comes with the gig bag and the case candy. Beautiful light weight and perfect balance, it's literally my perfect jazz.

 

Pickup from Worcester preferred but I may be able to post at your cost/risk.

UPDATE 28th April - I'm feeling quite down about the whole band thing and getting fed up of it all.  As a result the buyer of the above is welcome to my backup bass too - a Westone Thunder 1A - it's been used, abused and butchered but it's a fun ol' thing that has had the active preamp bypassed, neck repaired and looks like it's been dragged behind a car for the length of the M25 ;) -  take it, use it, sell it, destroy small towns with it, whatever but I'm taking a break from bass for a while until I want to pick it back up again!

Hi mate,

Just read your reason for selling and felt the need to reply.

Sorry your feeling crap at the moment. I don't know your reasons for having a break and I'm sure they're justified, but maybe just keep one bass...

Bands can be a nightmare! I'm just on a break (since June last year...) because I got sick of the bullsh#it! It seems that playing music is a double-edged sword (sorry, bad analogy and I'm no psychologist); what brings you immense joy, can also lead you to times of absolute despair! I thought about stopping completely, but playing is like an addiction, it draws you back in.

I guess all I'm trying to say is that you SHOULD have a break, but leave yourself the option to pick it up when you want and see how you feel. I found that I'd lost all my confidence in my abilities (I'm not saying you have, but I did) and didn't want to even look at the bass, but after a month or so, I needed to play the damn thing! I started wood-shedding again. But hey,  on the flip side, when you've finished the book, close the cover, if you've had enough, then that's cool too, you made a decision. 

Sorry to intrude on your sale thread or sound preachy with my 'Jerry Maguire moment' and I'm not part of a cult or anything... lol. GLWTS, take care and don't let 'em drag you down, dude. 

All the best 

Freddy

Thanks Freddy, sure I’ll be back to it in no time but I’m enjoying the ‘life laundry’ element of clearing out quite a lot - feels good!

Stuff it, £600 with free Westone and if it doesn’t sell this weekend I’ll throw it in a cupboard and forget about it (or try to!)

I stopped playing for nigh on 20 years when the prog band I was in folded, nothing else interested me. I kind of regret that now tbh.  

I wish you were closer to me, I’d buy that jazz in a heartbeat !
