Clarky Posted Sunday at 19:20 Posted Sunday at 19:20 (edited) Faded/worn cherry SG bass. Good condition bar some scrapes in the chrome on top of two tuners. Weighs less than 8 pounds. Plays slickly with 40-100 flats. Comes with plush Gibson hard case. £850 inc post or collection London SW13 in safe public space with £20 price adjustment. Fund raiser so no trades thanks.

Clarky Posted yesterday at 09:39 Author Posted yesterday at 09:39 Off hold. Had an offer yesterday from a well-known retailer which I accepted, packed the bass, removed FS ad from eBay etc. This morning they have come back and changed their mind. Poor form and last time I will be using them. Upshot is bass is still available 3
3below Posted 23 hours ago Posted 23 hours ago These are a great bass, not a one trick pony. Lightweight and versatile, records really well The fretwork on mine is astonishingly good, my Sg bass (same era) is my go to bass (and I have far too may 'quality' basses to choose from). No connection with @Clarky, GLWTS. 2 1
three Posted 12 hours ago Posted 12 hours ago I know this bass will be several steps up, but I was playing a mate’s Epiphone EB0 (short) and EB3 (long-scale) at the weekend. Both very cool and easy-to-play instruments. Some great tones too and definitely not one-trick (well maybe the EB0 is a bit - great trick though). Refreshingly little neck dive too. For me Gibson-type basses are very much under-rated. This one looks like a beautiful bargain. My interest in Gibson’s EB shapes is revivified 1

So easy to play and outstanding for blues/rock - but, as has been said, so much more.
Clarky Posted 12 hours ago Author Posted 12 hours ago (edited) Thank you gents. I would be happy to accept the same offer the retailer* made which was £800 for the bass (delivery would be extra and at cost). Its already sitting there, boxed up..... * I won't name and shame as I don't want to damage one of the very few bass specialist shops we have (although I am obviously voting with my feet).
