What a beautiful instrument...

Will take £200 posted. Not bad for a quality handmade bass...

Bump, and open to offers...

Not sure of the weight ( don't have any scales) but it's light and very well balanced

I shouldn't have defretted it; it was awesome as a fretted bass. It still is pretty awesome, but I'm just not feeling it as a fretless. I'm considering having it refretted, so this is a feeler, really. We all know Paul's work, and this is a great example: it was made for me 2-3 years ago. Bubinga top over Spanish Cedar back. Maple neck and fretboard, 33" scale, two humbuckers in the Scott Devine style, wired to a passive Varitone harness, and strung E-C. It's a heavy beast, but well balanced. It plays beautifully, and is in very good condition. Here's what I've done to it- defretted, and the lines filled in with darker wood filler. This was quite neatly done. I covered the board with Rustin's plastic resin, which went well, but in the process, managed to cover the lower half of the headstock in resin! Doesn't affect anything, but looks less than professional... The only thing that does need attention is the nut. I lowered it successfully, but the D and G strings are a bit plunky and lacking sustain. I think it's a dead easy fix, but I got a bit disheartened with it, and have left it as is.

I have loved playing it, but my fretless tastes have taken a different turn (Firecreek fretless, possibly THE best fretless bass), and I can't really justify keeping this. I am considering having it fretted, so I'll live if it doesn't sell. Olivewood top over mahogany core and wenge back. Maple and wenge neck with wenge headstock facing and ebony fingerboard. Humbucker in the P position with coil tap on the vol knob, single coil in the J position, both with olive covers, passive with vol, vol, tone, and wooden bridge. The neck is 43mm wide, with a Precision feel to the depth. It plays beautifully, and is in immaculate condition. I can't let it go for less than £400 plus postage, although I'm happy to meet up somewhere within reason (I'm in Sth Cumbria, near Barrow) Sorry the pictures are sideways (technologically challenged)

Bump for a neglected masterpiece?

Bump for title edit and bargain offer- see first post...

Only the Sandberg left now. I will edit the title appropriately

The Sandberg is now on Ebay for £795, but if anyone here is interested, I will let go for £700 posted for the duration of the listing (7 days)

Bump for two great basses

Just the two 7 strings up for sale now. Would consider a partial trade for a 6 stringer (Peavey Grind style)

I've spent far too long looking for the next bass I MUST have, and enough is enough. I'm putting all my basses up for sale, and I'll end up with the one that doesn't sell ( unless I see one for sale that I REALLY must have). Pics for all the basses at the following location: [url="http://s1383.photobucket.com/user/seansneary/library/"]http://s1383.photobu...sneary/library/[/url] 1. An anonymous 7 string with a P bass type pickup. I bought this on Ebay mainly out of curiosity, and it's proved to be a great bass. The action is really low, it has good strings (Ken Smith), and the pickups go from humbucker to single coil. The frets have been ground down, and there is an almost fretless feel to the intonation on the top end of the board. £150 delivered in a very strong, very scruffy plywood hardcase. [attachment=171058:P1010172.JPG] 2.Sandberg 7 string Bullet. Flame maple top, mahogany back, 2 piece maple neck, 3 band active/passive eq with Bartolini humbuckers. A fantastic bass, very tight B string. £800 delivered in a Kinsman foam hardcase. [attachment=171059:P1010167.JPG] Apologies for the photos being sideways, the photobucket ones are the right way up. I'm sure I've missed some things, so ask away. I live in South Cumbria, near Barrow-in-Furness, but I could meet up somewhere. Thanks for reading... New post 6/10/14 Only the Sandberg left now, and I feel the urge to keep the ball rolling, so between now and the weekend of the 18th/19th, I am prepared to SERIOUSLY consider all offers on this great bass. I have got my dream bass coming, and I'm prepared to take a possibly hefty loss in order to free up the cash. I would much prefer cash, but would potentially consider a trade with cash my way if I feel I could sell it on at my leisure.

I've put this up for sale for two reasons: I have only a limited time to play/practice, and fretless is my obsession; I am lusting after the Firecreek fretless on here. This is a completely fantastic, quality, handbuilt bass. I love it very much, and if it doesn't sell, my only regret is that I'll miss the Firecreek. Mahogany body, with a flame maple top. Two piece maple neck with very nice, warm figuring. Rosewood fretboard. Two Bartolini humbuckers, and a three band active eq, with passive bypass. Everything sounds great on it. The B string is crisp and taught. There are a couple of minor dings here and there, consistent with regular use, but nothing major at all. I only want to get back what I paid for it, so I'm asking £800, delivered in a Kinsman foam hard case. I could possibly arrange a meet, depending. I'm in Sth Cumbria.
