[b]Farida HB20 Hypersonic Series, Set Neck, P/J, with Farida Hard Case and Gotoh Hardware[/b] [font=Helvetica] This is an active bass with fantastic sounding Farida pick-ups. It has a set neck, Mahogony body, Gotoh hardware, high quality parts and craftsmanship. Do a search on Farida on this site and I think you'l find nothing but positive comments. Complete with a lovely Farida hard case. Searching the internet it looks like this could have originally retailed at around £1200 - £1700…! The bass weighs in at 3.4kgs, or 7.5lbs.[/font] [font=Helvetica] The bass is located in Kent, but happy to package up and ship insured at cost.[/font] [b]Link to a previous sale thread[/b]: [url="http://basschat.co.uk/topic/222095-now-l350-fs-ft-farida-hb20-hypersonic-series-set-neck-pj-lightweight-cw-farida-hard-case/"]http://basschat.co.uk/topic/222095-now-l350-fs-ft-farida-hb20-hypersonic-series-set-neck-pj-lightweight-cw-farida-hard-case/[/url] [b]Blurb[/b]: "Farida HB-20 - Years of research and development have rewarded us with this exciting new bass. Part of our Hypersonic range, the stylish, 24-fret HB20 offers a wide range of great bass tones thanks to its popular active pickup configuration. The HB20 incorporates a solid mahogany body, maple set neck and rosewood fingerboard in a radical sleek design." “Quite a rare beast - very Spector esque - lovely inlays in the ‘board. Set neck (so think Les Paul), Mahogony body which is very lightweight, Gotoh hardware, high quality parts and craftsmanship.” [color=#282828][font=Helvetica]“This is an amazing and very rare bass. It is very lightweight and good to hold. Similar to the lighter Ibanez basses. Farida guitars are very highly regarded but launched their brand at the start of the European economic crisis. The result was that these high end models didn't sell, despite being very competitively priced and well made.”[/font][/color] [font=Helvetica] Only got this bass a week ago, but now need to raise funds for a 5 string gigging bass. Need to get one fast, hence the crazy low price, and BARGAIN here for someone.[/font]

Nothing at all. I received it, loved it, decided it was a keeper, the back of the bass is even more amazing than the front! Then two days later; my silly silly silly band mates have changed their minds AGAIN about the tuning, so now I need to get hold of another fretted bass for gigging tuned to C standard. Unfortunately I don't have any spare cash to keep this, and it's a heavy rock band, so can't get away with using this. Got another festival gig an a couple of weeks, so going to have to take a huge hit on this. Absolutely gutted, and very annoyed at the band. But it means someone here is in for a BARGAIN!

[b]Fender 2012 ‘American Special’ Fretless Precision Bass with Gig Bag[/b] A wonderful and light American built passive P-Bass in honey burst. Complete with Gig Bag and upgraded Hipshot tuners. (8.5lbs before anyone asks). Bass is located in Kent, but can ship insured to mainland UK at cost. [list] [*]Body Material: Two-piece alder [*]Body Finish: Hand rubbed stain with a satin nitro lacquer top coat [*]Neck: Maple, Slim "C" Shape [*]Neck Finish: Satin Urethane [*]Fretboard Radius: 9.5" (24.1 cm) [*]Scale Length: 34" (86.36 cm) [*]Nut Width: 1.625" (41.3 mm) [*]String Nut: Synthetic Bone [*]Pickup: American Standard Precision Bass® Alnico Split Single-Coil [*]Bridge: Standard Vintage 4 Saddle Bass [*]Pickguard: 3-Ply Parchment [/list] The bass was sent to Brook Guitars down in Devon who did a fantastic job of converting the neck to a fretless solid ebony board (7mm deep at the centre, 5mm at the sides) complete with original nut. It plays really well and the unlined board is incredible with amazing sustain. The bass has also been upgraded with genuine Fender black scratch-plate with tug-bar, and upgraded to Hipshot tuners which keep the weight down at 8.5lbs with perfect balance. The bass has some minor bumps and scrapes to the body, but is in very good condition.

I'm undecided on this. But I must say that after buying something for a bargain price I pass that low price onto the next person, especially if I'm turning the item over rather quickly. Just seems the right thing to do to me. I don't get people that keep a bass for a few years and then want to get back what they paid for it! I feel that with each transaction I expect the item to drop a little in price generally.

[quote name='Dan Dare' timestamp='1472154737' post='3119006'] You're an evil man, posting tempting photos... Expect you'll report that it sounds fab, too. [/quote] Yup, don't worry Dan, I've reported this thread to the Mod's. It's despicable that this sort of thing goes on in an open forum. Now if you'll excuse me; I've got to go see how much a kidney would fetch on the black market!

Did a trade with Mike, top guy indeed. I had to delay the trade for unforeseen circumstances, but he was very patient, great communications and super friendly. The bass was awesome and exactly as described, arriving the next day! Highly recommended. 😊 Cheers.

Anyone have any experience with the Bergantino B-Amp yet?
Musashimonkey replied to Dood's topic in Amps and Cabs
Cheers Dan, good to hear it works well as a stand alone amp, as well as a brand matched pairing. I'm looking forward to the review. 😊
