Washburn Scavenger 1981 now Sold thanks! £250 Lancaster

[ash]

I bought this recently having always wanted to try one when I was at school. Unfortunately it’s rather heavy for me at 5kgs so having given it some TLC it’s up for grabs. 
It’s a Japanese made Washburn Scavenger bass with its original case. I doubt you’ll find one in such good condition - apart from the odd finish scratch and tarnish to the brass saddles it is excellent. 
The pickup looks like a Dimarzio and sounds pretty beefy it’s an incredibly well made bass typical of a Japanese made instrument from this era. It’s all original and the neck is straight and true with lots of life in the frets. It’s been cleaned and set up with a decent set of strings. No trades thanks. 
I’m happy to post in the UK at buyers cost.

Proper bargain, that. If it's not sold by the end of the afternoon, I'll eat my goldfish.

Double cutaway perfection.  Anyone who wants the Precision bass sound but not the P bass look should hoover this up.  As long as you have a strong back.

Is the headstock colour and back of the neck black or brown?

Hope these pics with flash show it clearer - it’s a rich chocolate brown.

What a wonderful bass.  Lovely condition, and a beautiful simplicity to the design. I shall be insanely jealous of whicher lucky schmoe  buys it.

I give full and fair notice. Anyone thinking of buying this. You have until next Friday. The 17th.

If you don't move on it before then I'm afraid @ash will be receiving a formal offer at the full asking price.
