phsycoandy Posted October 11, 2009 Share Posted October 11, 2009 (edited) For no other reason than that I fancy a change and need some cash in my pocket for my forthcoming NYC trip I,m selling my rather special GB. It's a sister to EBS-Freaks 5 sting and one of a triplet taken from the same american walnut facing. This is a Jazz on steroids, with a huge and powerful EQ section, it covers every sound in the book from full on Mark King slap to soulfull jazz tones and everything in between. A quality bass in every respect. Super fast figured maple neck and fretboard, a really spectacularly pretty bass and always gets admiring comments. Comes with GB Hiscox case. 9.5/10 condition wise, there is the smallest of marks on the top edge towards the rear, and a small depression just above the battery, Bernie is aware of this from when it was new and will sort it at any stage for the new owner, its basically a tiny settling in a knot of the grain and was there when I bought it, it is barely noticeable and it never bothered me. She has the snazzy smoked see thru EQ cover. Some extensive new pictures: Please excuse the missing screw on the rear cover! It will be replaced. Price wise: £1650 shipped and insured.

dunetune_jazz Posted October 11, 2009 Share Posted October 11, 2009 When it comes to basses Bernie is the man .... No one can come close to his craftsman’s ship.... Who’s the daddy... and where's your F**** tool .... remind me of a scene from the rather quaint scene from Scum... Good luck with the sale...

Thunderthumbs Posted October 12, 2009 Share Posted October 12, 2009 Andy.....Andy.....Andy...... Why do this to me???? As I've mentioned once or twice before, I was in Bernie's basement the day before you collected it, and he played it through the rig that I eventually walked out of the shop with. It sounds absolutely stunning!!! Right.......I'm off down to hell to sell my soul to the devil.....I'll be back (hopefully)!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
