Sold - Stagg EDB for sale - 2008 model £250 Bideford Devon

[Rainbass]

Selling my honey coloured Stagg EDB which I bought in 2008, and to be honest, has never had much use.  It's never been gigged, just used at home and still has the original strings on.

The nut broke not long after I bought it, and I had it replaced with an ebony nut by J White guitars in Ash Vale.  The dot markings on the side aren't really in the "right" place.  They seem to equate to where the dots would be on a fretted instrument, rather than the actual fingering position.  I have a feeling Stagg altered this for more recent models.

I find that the electronics hiss a lot more than i would expect - I've seen various comments about this being a common issue on the forum and some potential fixes mentioned.  I haven't done anything about it as I mainly played it un-amplified at home, but I think this needs some attention, hence the asking price of £250.

Ideally, collection from North Devon;  I put in the dimensions of it  on a courier pricing website, and that would add £30 to the price.

If you are in the area, you are very welcome to come over and try it out.

Think I may have sounded a bit negative in my description in my urge for full disclosure!  It plays very well and is a good way to start (or dabble) in the world of the upright bass, I think.
