ON HOLD

Great looking bass, GLWTS

Yeah, I was hoping to find something positive now I've got a bass for sale but it really puts you off.

Hi, I've no idea about the neck plate and logo, I'm afraid, and I'd always assumed the bass was originally built that way. Also I've seen pics of other Haymans with perspex bridge covers etc but this one has never had them fitted, well at least there are no screw holes. I haven't sold over t'nternet before, so am concerned about entrusting this lovely instrument to the tender mercies of a courier. However........ Regards

I understand Hayman basses were manufactured 1971 - 1973, and I swapped my Burns Flyte for this one in 1978 There are dents and scuffs as you would expect. It has stacked pots which sometimes sound a little scratchy, and I haven't tried to cure. Maple neck and staggered spit pick-up under the Perspex. The control plate has [i]two[/i] selector switches, and it needs a splitter/stereo cable to operate properly - I will include a cheap cable - it won't work with a 'mono' cable. Basschatters are welcome to try before you buy, cash on collection. I'm not into trading, shipping or couriers but might be persuaded to deliver for petrol money in Hants/W.Sussex area.
