Received this bass in February, only left the house once so it’s in mint condition. 
I don’t have a case for it so collection preferred (either from Rochester or central London). 
 

List price with upgrades is ~£3675, asking for £2500.

Stunning. Wish it was a 4 string. Like the idea of video’ing the bass, will use that next time I’m selling 😁 GLWTS.

These don't hang around.  How much does it weigh?

A stunning bass from the collection of one of the finest bassists and gentlemen in the country. Buy with confidence, folks.

I own 2 of these and they're the finest basses I've ever owned 🤩

That is a thing of beauty, but another jazz bass would lead to divorce😞. GLWTS.

Hi, lovely bass! Just wondered if you had received my message of 22 Oct? 

[richardcoughlan]

Hey just replied. 
 

for those that have asked for a couple of recordings, I’m going to get to it over the weekend so will be sure to post them here 👍

Recorded this quickly this morning after a few people requested some sound demos.
Preamp is set flat and there’s no processing. 

Put it together quite quickly so excuse any ropey playing and my lack of video editing skills!!
