Sean Posted January 25, 2009 Share Posted January 25, 2009 (edited) I have agreed to try and sell a Hohner B2ADB - it has the drop D-tuner mechanism which works beautifully. [url="http://www.hohnerusa.com/index.php?1523"]http://www.hohnerusa.com/index.php?1523[/url] for a colleague in work. It was bought as a gift for his son and it's not wanted (son doesn't think it's very cool and wants to raise cash to buy something a bit more "metal"). Anyway, this instrument hasn't even been taken out of the wrapping. I had the lid off the box to check and it's untouched since leaving the factory. These are super basses and excellent all rounders, I have one of my own and use it as a backup regularly or as a main bass when we play tiny venues. It's Korean made and comes out of the same factory where Cort and Lakland Skylines are/were made - quality is brilliant. Looking for £350. As new, still packed, unplayed. Sean PS: Did I mention it's never been out of the packing? Edited February 16, 2009 by Sean Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Burpster Posted January 25, 2009 Share Posted January 25, 2009 There are few B2As, they do a D-tuner model and 5 string ones too... Also different colors.... Any chance of a couple of pics? Oh and someone ought to give the ungrateful little blighter a kick in the shins..... FYI I had a B2B and it was a great little beast (before I sold it to Woolleydick) these are great fun.

[b]NB: These are pics of mine which is absolutely identical. The one for sale is still perfectly packaged as it was when it left the factory...[/b] originally bought from Thomann and I see they are over £540 quid there [url="http://www.thomann.de/gb/hohner_b2adb_bk.htm?partner_id=73572"]B2ADB[/url] Edited January 25, 2009 by Sean Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thisnameistaken Posted January 25, 2009 Share Posted January 25, 2009 Ah that brings back memories. I had one of those when I was 18. Bloody hell that's a long time ago... Sounded enormous. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Traded it in to get a Wal a few months later, but remember thinking how cool it was at the time (especially the little red light on the front!)

The bridge pup is a bit unmusical ('plasticky'?) in my opinion, but that's subjective of course. Nice bass overall, and never goes out of tune :-) Edited February 2, 2009 by bremen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sean Posted February 4, 2009 Author Share Posted February 4, 2009 Dialling in the bridge pup gives a nice articulation to the sound that pleases my Jazzophile ears. :brow: If I didn't already have one I'd be buying this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

redstriper Posted February 7, 2009 Share Posted February 7, 2009 Would you consider a trade for a nearly new epiphone EB-0 plus cash? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GarethHD Posted February 11, 2009 Share Posted February 11, 2009 I'm really looking for a 5 string one of these, but might be interested in this one if we can agree on a price. Would there be a deal on offer for cash, and does it come with a case or is it still in cardboard? cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Price I'm advertising at is cash on collection or delivery can be thrown in. It's a brand new untouched bass and a hell of lot cheaper than anywhere. If you're really looking for a five string, go for one. Also there are usually a few of these knocking about on ebay. Why not go to [url="http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showforum=3"]"Introductions"[/url] and tell us a bit about yourself! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
