    SOLD

    Grangur replied to Raslee's topic in Basses For Sale

    It might be just me but your pictures aren't showing up. Also, you dropped the price in your post, but not in the title. But if I were you I'd get the pictures issue sorted out before dropping the price. Fretless basses don't sell fast anyway. Glwts

    Clive bought my Roland Cube. It was all very straightforward. Good communications. Would happily deal with him again. Thanks Clive!

    Hi there, Here's a nice bass for someone. It's a Warwick Rockbass Corvette with MEC pickups and passive controls. The controls are Vol, Blend, NeckTone, BridgeTone. The weight is light to medium and it balances well on the strap; as you'd expect from any Warwick. The body is solid wood; probably Alder and the neck is maple with a rosewood fretboard. The frets are in great condition. The body has a few minor gigging dings. This comes all set up and with a Warwick Rockbag Gigbag and I can ship it by carrier if you'd like. If you want to come and try it out, you're welcome. The bass is in Bishops Stortford CM23 4DH. Grab yourself a bargain!

    Woops!!! I got all excited, thinking this was a BASS combo... not for me I'm afraid. Sorry!

    If you ever change your mind passive pups would be easier to move on, I would have thought. Buying passive also gives you more choice. Looking forward to hearing some good sound clips...

    [quote name='dood' timestamp='1435339384' post='2807931'] Hmmmm, well, he did say that he wanted way more for the bass - i mean he'd said that it was valued by a bassist as £1500!! - no way Jose! [/quote] Hmmm.... you tempt me. Maybe I'll go round the BC market place and offer a few free valuations and see what happens.
  9. Grangur
    Cool one CW. Many thanks. Knowing Dood had it and talking about it then I'm sure it was good. It sold for £450. This must, of course be considerably down to the previous ownership legacy, I don't wonder.

    Thanks Douglas (Dad). You have a good point there. I, as a meer punter, have no idea what scripting has gone on in the background. It's also true to say there are things on BC that work better than on... er.... the [i]other [/i]place.

    Hi there, This is just another of those questions about if a Fender is real or fake. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/161736328651?_trksid=p2055119.m1438.l2648&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT Nice looking bass, but is it really likely to be a Fender if there's not serial number?
  12. Grangur
    Hi there, I have a confession to make... I'm sorry. Truly sorry, but I've been to another bass forum. I know it's unforgivable. It's not as good as Basschat, of course. The user interface would indicate that they use the same software as BC, but they have a cool way that members can change their preferences for threads they follow. I've attached a picture of the screenshot. [attachment=195078:sbl-screen.jpg] Can we have that here?

    [quote name='Gazaguitar' timestamp='1435318136' post='2807596'] Think its time for ebay :0) should get £350 !!!! [/quote] That is, of course, your prerogative. You've only had it up for sale here for something like 42 hours. FYI, if you use interparcel.com you can send a bass by UPS and it will cost you about £13-14 including insurance. So a carriage cost of £15 would also make it more attractive to buyers.

    Too far for me to collect Have some pics

    In truth I'm not being an are either. If this bass were to tick the right boxes I too could be persuaded. All the questions posted are asking for standard info that we all need to know before we're happy to send off £450+ of our hard earned in the expectation of getting a bass.
  17. Grangur
    Not that I can afford to be interested at all, but what woods go to make this item of wonder? Also, what does it weigh? Just out of curiosity, of course.
  18. Grangur
    Sir, that is a very, very rude looking bass. You should be ashamed of yourself. posting pictures like that on 'tinternet.
  19. Grangur
    Sell the P and buy a Squier VM Fretless

    Hey Gareth, the bass is great. many thanks. To help the mods to know which threads to lock, we edit the header and put "Sold" in the title. I'm sure they'd appreciate that, if you don't mind. Many thanks again Rich

    Bump for a great bass. Head to head against mine I prefered this one (damn it ! ! ! ) .... Herts Bass Bash 2015
  22. Grangur
    I use www.interparcel.com This sends by UPS and costs about £11 plus insurance. A £300 bass would cost about £13 to send insured.

    Bass, bubblewrap and cardboard usually comes in at just under 7Kg when I send.

    Non competition feedback: I use Elixir strings all the time. I mostly play Warwick basses and like the slighty "dirty" tone of the combination. Warwick are known for their "growl". Elixir gives a Warwick a perfect tone with the growl but meat behind it avoiding the zing that some strings give. Elixir feel great under the fingers. After playing strings for a couple of months I've had other folk say my strings sound old. I think they sound the same as they were when I fitted them. To me they're still giving me the sound I want. Not everyone wants a zing of the "steel just out of the packet" and Elixir delivers on this. Right now I'm looking forward to replacing the flats on my fretless and hearing the tone of Elixir on ebony.
