I just won the jack plate on ebay, but it seems to be lost in the post As for value... who knows, that's why I prefer trades. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any idea what they're worth out of interest?[/quote] There's a nice original '73 EB4-L on ebay Joe, around the £740 mark which is pretty good. I'd be v tempted if I wasn't skint, but I got as far as checking the shipping cost with him - 60 Euros from Ireland (£50-ish?)

joegarcia Posted October 15, 2009 Share Posted October 15, 2009 This one? [url="http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/1973-Gibson-EB-4L-Bass_W0QQitemZ330366742090QQcmdZViewItemQQptZUK_Musical_Instruments_Guitars_CV?hash=item4ceb646e4a#ht_500wt_1182"]http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/1973-Gibson-EB-4L-Ba...a#ht_500wt_1182[/url] Looks really nice. Can't afford it until I sell my Sabre unfortunately. Would really like a two pickup version in black though ideally. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd kind of decided to keep it but may well be persuaded to part with it as I have too many 4x12's really anyway. Very interested in Guilds and RD's, particularly black ones. Linky here: [url="http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=76684"]http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=76684[/url] It currently has Vintage 30's in but I still have the G12t-75's.

evilLordJuju Posted April 2, 2010 Author Share Posted April 2, 2010 [quote name='cocco' post='793866' date='Apr 1 2010, 10:24 PM']What are you after for the rd artist?[/quote] Well, the title of this thread is "I want every bass ever made (pre 1982)". Having said this, i'm mostly interested in American stuff - don't really go for Jap stuff, but there are a few European brands I also like. I am slowly working my way through them all.. keep them for a year or two, play them out, maybe record with it. Take a few photos for my websites ([url="http://www.flyguitars.com"]www.flyguitars.com[/url] and [url="http://www.vintageguitars.org.uk"]www.vintageguitars.org.uk[/url]) and then swap them for something else. This RD is not in perfect cosmetic condition... it has quite a few dings, and paint wear on the back of the neck... but it is in full working order with all original electronics functioning perfectly. I know these are quite saught after, and i'm not going to let it go for something I don't really want... this is the one that you all enquire about, so i'll wait for something that really moves me. I also feel that these are rising in value faster than most other Gibson basses, so it would be one to hang on to unless the offer was right. I am open to offers of all kinds, but I can say now that anything by Fender, Gibson, Guild, Gretsch or Vox would get serious consideration. Passive basses vastly preferred to active, but guitars and valve amps also wanted. I had three RD Artists, and I swapped one with Shaggy for an old (UK built) Vox teardrop guitar... and i'm keeping my CMT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

evilLordJuju Posted April 2, 2010 Author Share Posted April 2, 2010 Thanks for the replys. I've already got a WEM clubman (great little amps by the way, I love them) and have sold on both my Grabbers. I'm looking for stuff that's new to me - obviously you guys don't know what gear i've already been through so thanks for the offers anyway.

Bassyoldgit Posted April 2, 2010 Share Posted April 2, 2010 (edited) I love the handle!! Not in the premier division but I acquired a Vesta f-Jazz copy It has a fender ashtray bridge cover and in very good order. I have read a lot of comments regarding quality value etc. You seem to know your stuff all I can tell is, I have played a pukka Jazz and this and although the feel and sound is better the Vesta is very comparable. Whats your (or anyones else's take) Thanks guys there is so much Knowledge out there Ssh Don't tell my good lady but I am looking for a short-scale preferably EBo or similar [i]"in my opinion you can stick your twitter and facebook lets just stick with the bassbook the only forum that rocks"[/i] Edited April 2, 2010 by Bassyoldgit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
