vco Posted April 23, 2009 Share Posted April 23, 2009 Hello all, mostly a lurker, sorry for the low post-count. I took these photos in response to a wanted ad, but nothing came of that. figured since i took the photos, i may as well offer it to the peeps here. player's bass with a lot of 'mojo', as they call it; everything works, and sounds great- very warm bass. i was told these go for £800, but that seems a bit much... so feel free to send offers/questions. not looking for trades, but may consider if you have an EBS multicomp to throw in on the deal. i'm in glasgow, and would GREATLY prefer pickup. If i ship it, it will be at cost of postage+materials, paid by the buyer. interesting things about the gibson ripper: 34.5 scale wide/thin body, fast neck two humbuckers with the following switching options: 1- parallel, out of phase 2- parallel, in phase 3- bridge solo 4- serial, in phase controls are: volume, treble cut, mid cut includes original case, while beat up, is nevertheless important, as finding a case that fits a larger bass like this can be difficult. apologies for the bad photos (IMO, the bass looks lots nicer in person). i specifically took them with the flash on to more clearly show any flaws. when i have time, i'll try re-taking these during daylight hours in hopes of an in-focus/non-flash set.

lozbass Posted April 23, 2009 Share Posted April 23, 2009 I just love these! Absolutely fantastic grinding, clanking racket - fantastic players in the main. Good luck with the sale, this'll make someone happy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shaggy Posted April 23, 2009 Share Posted April 23, 2009 Nurze was looking for one of these: [url="http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=42227&hl=ebony+Gibson"]http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=...hl=ebony+Gibson[/url]. What's the year on this one? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vox Posted April 24, 2009 Share Posted April 24, 2009 (edited) hello, this is 'vco' posting... i found out that i wasn't getting email updates on the thread (or any other), so i changed the email to see if that would work, and now my account won't validate (despite receiving the code). I've emailed the admin a couple times to see if that can get sorted, but haven't heard anything. Could an admin please finish validating my account? until that happens, i have no way of sending, receiving, or checking PMs. I would say that people interested should just re-PM me on this account 'vox', but that sounds sketchy until i take more photos (which i should be able to post tomorrow). Shaggy: Yes, that was the wanted ad for which i took the above photos. never heard back from Nurze- hopefully he already found one. the serial number starts with 00, which IIRC, makes it a 1976 year of manufacture. EDIT: this has sold. Edited March 22, 2010 by vox Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
