Jay Haide 2008 Reduced, now £3.5k - *WITHDRAWN*
£4000
Harrogate


Recommended Posts

Hoping to move house soon and need to de-clutter.

Fast approaching 71 I'm still doing a few gigs but mainly on my Yamaha.

I Probably need to sell 3 uprights.

First up is a 2008 Jay Haide, Ifshin Violins, Berkeley. Ca.

Lovely red varnish, slim neck.

Prefer collection in Harrogate but could possibly meet up within reasonable distance.

Think I've over priced this. I'd seen another one sold, they were asking asking 4k but I don't know what it went for.

How about £3.5k?

 

I have an old German hatpeg needs a new home too but not sure of it's value yet.

These are over £5k new...and they don't worsen with age. Not sure if this is a "Panormo" or a "101" model, but £5300 at bassbags anyway.

 

I had a play on one in Tim Tofts and was quite impressed; even toned and easy to play.  An old European bass would have more character perhaps, but with this you'd get no maintenance issues and a known quantity.

 

Whatever, £3.5k is a bargain and a massive step up if you're currently playing a laminated bass.

 

Basses etc do take ages to sell privately.  I currently have a cello to sell and it's been on musical chairs for 4months at 75% of the dealer price ...and almost no interest.  Patience! ... or get a dealier to sell it on commission.

Oooffff what a stunning bass Keith fabulous woods and I love the shape too. The Irving Sloane tuners alone are probably £ 600.00. 

 

BTW Keith is a top bloke and a great person to do deals with. So have no fears his gear is always in great condition

I also need to sell this old German flat back but not sure what its value is.

I'll consider any reasonable serious offers.

 

The Clifton is sadly no longer in my possession.IMG_0033.thumb.JPG.892d07e7f32983e9ef2bcdc8052dbc92.JPG

My main reason for selling the Jay Haide is due to the skinny neck. I prefer a thicker neck.

 

If this doesn't sell within the next couple of weeks I'm going to have a thicker fingerboard fitted and keep it.

Skinny back to front or side to side? I presume it's the thickness that's a concern.

 

Lot of money for a big chunk of ebony for a slightly thicker neck. Andmifmthe fingerboard goes up,then the bridge might be too short.

 

Might be cheaper to have a maple wedge put under the fingerboard?
