DylanB Posted April 25, 2009 Share Posted April 25, 2009 (edited) I got this bass from a fellow basschatter about 6 months ago. I realise now that it's a little bit superfluous in my collection, so it's up on the block. It is in very good condition indeed, there are a few scratches to the control cavity and around the usual 'popping' spot. There is also a small ding on the back of the neck, around the 9th fret running parallel to the frets (so, vertical if you have the bass in a playing position). It does not interfere with playing. My apologies for the cameraphone pics, let me know if you want to see anything else. I am in the SW15 Wandsworth area of London, i would prefer for the bass to be collected from there, but I am willing to ship at the buyers expense. It will be shipped in a gig bag in a well packed box. The gig bag is pretty worn out, but will protect it for the journey. £320 + delivery. I'm 99% sure I want to sell this for the cash, but if you've got anything to trade run it past me. I'm pretty picky though. Cash is king! Please feel free to ask questions via PM or [email protected]. P.S. I also have a Spector Rebop 5 DLX Zebrano for sale here: [url="http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=47460"]http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=47460[/url] Edited April 29, 2009 by DylanB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DylanB Posted April 26, 2009 Author Share Posted April 26, 2009 Well spotted. I paid £320 for it, so I'm asking that. Silverfoxnik is right, they are great basses for the money, and pack a lot into the pre-amp. It's a shame I have to let it go! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stingrayfan Posted April 26, 2009 Share Posted April 26, 2009 Great gigging basses these. Don't put off by the switches, they're pretty simple but allow you to get a P, J or Stingray sound with a quick flick. The pre-amp really cuts through the mix.

thepurpleblob Posted April 26, 2009 Share Posted April 26, 2009 Yeh - I've got one and can't praise it enough. It's the best 5 string neck I've played. The sound is, for good or bad, very in-your-face. Much more output that a StingRay. They're a crazy bargain used. The only small negative with mine anyway is less than perfect fretwork - one or two rough edges. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DylanB Posted April 27, 2009 Author Share Posted April 27, 2009 A basschatter who came by to check this bass out quite correctly pointed out that there is a ding on the back of the neck, around the 9th fret, that I hadn't noticed in my time with the bass. My apologies for missing it! It is parallel to the frets and about three quarters of an inch long. It does not interfere with playing. My attempts to capture this imperfection on camera have proved futile. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lapolpora Posted April 29, 2009 Share Posted April 29, 2009 A bump for Dylan. I went to check out this bass - it's a lovely instrument in excellent condition. The blemish on the neck is quite high up and not very noticeable. More of a "pillow scar" than a dent. It sounds good too and is comfortable to play. Dylan's pictures don't do justice to the orange tint finish which is lush without being shouty. It will make someone really happy without hurting the wallet too much. Go buy!
