  1. For sale or trade. £800. Was on hold for a BCer but I've not heard from him for a few days so back up for sale. Olympic white with maple fretboard. The paintwork has gone a creamy yellow over time and looks well with its original white plate.I believe the neck and body are 79 based on the weight of the body and the corresponding date with the neck. The pickups are dated 81 as is the etch on the back of the pickguard. I believe it was assembled in 81 using older parts, a practice that was common at the time. Knocks and some fretwear that are consistent with a gigging bass of its age. Plenty of pictures supplied but if any more are needed please let me know. The bass plays well and sounds great. Weighs in at 5.1kg on my digital scales and is 42mm at the nut. Very old school. Its for sale as I need to fund a 22/24 fret bass. I'm looking for a Westone Thunder 2 or preferably a 3 plus cash adjustment or another bass as well if you have no money! Perhaps a Fender Jazz Deluxe. Any 22/24 fret bass considered as long as the upper frets are accessible for a player with shorter fingers! Just let me know what you have. I may even be interested in something else that I could sell on to raise the funds. Sorry but 4 strings only...

  2. Didn't sell at £10. How low should the starting price be then?

  4. Bump
  5. [quote name='lojo' timestamp='1412006193' post='2564764'] Shame, its got the right amount of frets Id take £265 for it to get this , but good luck [/quote] It is a pity but it's a bit weird for me!
  6. [quote name='lojo' timestamp='1411887072' post='2563469'] Trade for a Hohner B2A ? [/quote] Hi, thanks for the offer but the Hohner isn't for me. Cheers Dunc
  7. Restrung with La Bella's roundwounds which would set you back £40. These have seen about an hours play if that. The bass itself has only had 3 or 4 hours play altogether. No damage. I bought it for a project that I now need a 22 or 24 fret 4 string for! It's been hanging on the wall like an ornament and so I've decided to sell to fund the bass needed. Price plus postage or you can always collect or could meet up at a reasonable distance. May trade for a 22-24 bass, small bass combo or micro head. I'm not at home at the moment but will get pics up ASAP.
  8. Why did he put on new WIlkinson and Fender parts, then set fire to them?
  9. Interested in any trades?
  10. [quote name='CamdenRob' timestamp='1411573635' post='2560828'] It looks kinda unhappy to me.... [/quote] It's a very sad bass...
  11. It's probably worth it as the lacquer isn't crackled like most.
  12. Or maybe it was a buy it now with best offer?
  13. I'm sure one sold on eBay in excess of £300 last year. I would buy it myself but unfortunately it doesn't have enough frets for what I need...
  14. [quote name='Shonks' timestamp='1411065406' post='2556184'] lots of us have, but unless you're selling a fake Rolex Ebay don't seem to care. [/quote] Too true. Fender don't seem to care either!
  15. Reported it to eBay as a fake and for copyright infringement. Hopefully they will do something before the auction ends!
  16. They made great guitars... http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/231335964338
  17. It's the near perfect 69 that gets me chaps...
  18. Just had an email from Fender chap called Paul Levesque. He says they have no control over items for sale on eBay? Reported an item to them before and it was removed. Must have been a coincidence...
  19. http://basschat.co.uk/topic/244858-totally-fake/. Original thread
  20. Just emailed a Fender. Let's see what they do...
  21. Reported it a few days ago myself. It would be a better idea reporting it to Fender itself. Done that one before and they got a result!
  22. I can't believe it's not sold but saying that I can't believe it's up for sale either. Have a bump...
  23. [quote name='Roland Rock' timestamp='1410367943' post='2548656'] Great price! [/quote] And a great combo!
  24. [quote name='police squad' timestamp='1410359593' post='2548532'] with that logo, serial number would be on the neck plate. The serial number went to the headstock when they started with 76 or S7/8. Truss rod would adjust from the body too and there would be a plug in the headstock [/quote] You are right. according to Fender, the serial moved from the plate to the headstock mid 76 when that logo also changed. So, nothing on the back of the head but surely there should be a date of some sort on the butt?
  25. I've seen a few fakes with the same logo. Lots of people put a custom shop logo on the back of the head as we'll. I think many waterslide sets come with both.
