Kev Posted January 1, 2009 Share Posted January 1, 2009 one more for good measure [attachment=17951:vigier_p...bass_024.jpg] great guy, great bass! have a bump Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ped Posted January 1, 2009 Share Posted January 1, 2009 Incredibly clean example!! Good luck with the sale mate. Defo right in saying it is 1985 ish, Patrice might be able to confirm this. Technically I think it is a series 2 bass (carbon thru neck etc) as opposed to the series 1 which had the wooden neck with brass laminate under the fingerboard) though there was some crossover with dates etc. It has slightly wider horns than the later series 2's (think they were reduced in '86 actually) Superb instrument. Comes with original semi-hard case too does it? Cheers ped Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mickd Posted January 1, 2009 Author Share Posted January 1, 2009 Thanks for the compliments guys,it'll break my heart to see it go.The bass comes with a hardshell flight case ped and is a series 1 or 2 bought brand new by myself in 1985ish! Thanks for the bump bass man kev! cheers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
