[quote name='midgetiser' post='557145' date='Jul 31 2009, 02:31 PM']I've got this exact bass but in stained blue (and well, [b]mine's pretty battered![/b])...[/quote] You've not seen mine The neck/headstock has been completely smashed and repaired twice, the back of the body has been half sanded down, it has a ridiculous amount of minor to medium size dings, a fair amount of pretty major dings, and has a massive crack around the bottom of the body around where the control cavity and volume and tone pots are I've owned it from new and absolutely love it - used to play it for 2 hours every single day until I went to uni 4 years ago. Great basses these, and massively underrated by some.

Hi mate. Can you just elaborate a little bit more about the issue with the Streamer truss rod? Do you have a cash price in mind for it?

Didn't this sell for £250 on ebay?

Got a pic? Know if they'll fit a Fender Jazz?

[quote name='Stacker' post='538571' date='Jul 12 2009, 03:47 PM']I nearl fell foul of Parcelforce and I'd like to say to BC members: Stay away from them! They 'lost' a 335 I sent to Spain and in the surrounding panic I then discovered what the insurance value actually was!!! Luckily, aftern ten days the guitar eventually turned up. It was found hidden in a cage in a corner of the warehouse in Coventry; it's tracking labels had been removed and was only initially identified by it's size. Go figure where it was soon to go to! I worried like mad until the thing got to Spain and after it did I told PFW that I'd never use them again aor even recommend them. Since then, all my auctions/sales put the onus on the buyer to arrange insurance and couriers.[/quote] I’d say you were pretty unlucky with that, but the end result was good. I’ve used ParcelForce at least 5 or 6 times to send instruments through the post (domestic UK shipping only) and all arrived within 24 hours and completely unharmed. Just a couple of pointers – I always make sure I put the delivery address and senders details on both sides of the case/box before it gets sent because I know that it’s not uncommon for the labels to fall off or be ripped off by poor handling, and because of that it’s always an idea to use excessive amounts of bubble wrap These details that I put on the stuff I send are in addition to the courier’s delivery stickers. Also, I don’t know if you’re aware but ParcelForce don’t insure instruments over £150 regardless of how much extra insurance you buy, so it’s always worth reading all the small print and T&Cs.

Very good price mate. These are good little combos.
