    I remember when I was younger........... pull up a sand bag........ I was in Kempsters and Sons in Swindon, Wilts, drooling over basses. As I made my way towards the Rickenbacker, the guy actually said "You wouldn't like that...." Maybe I'd accidentally played Expansions on another bass in there, who knows. However, they are hot potatoes, for sure.

    Sold a RW Jazz to Ben and it was a pleasurable experience all round. He's also been helpful and inspirational in the set up of bass guitars. Buy and sell with more than confidence, Thanks Ben.

    It's badass. Too good to just deliver a bass in, I know.............. If nobody wants it you can have it Skidder.

    This is a beautiful, lightweight example of this highly coveted bass. 8.9lbs on the bathroom scales. Nickel stack knob with original control plate included. I bought this from a session bassist and it's set up so nicely. It used to belong to Daveyboyrooster back in the early days. He added the stack knob. I'm sure he wouldn't mind offering a reference if anyone was interested. There is one thing which may niggle some - there is an extra screw hole next to another for the bridge cover. The sale includes the case and delivery. Overseas delivery will be different. The case in not a Fender case but one that came with a P-bass I bought. When I asked the guy "what kind of case is that?" he replied, a s**t one. I think it goes with the bass perfectly. Anyway, as many people know, these are mustard for the money. Even the headstocks are cut slimmer like the old days. Any questions, please ask. I'm in Swindon, SN1 4LW. You're welcome to come and have a play.

    These have never left the house & I think the boxes for them are in the loft. Very honest, uncoloured sound. Ed Friedland loves them. Bought from Bass Direct and have the receipt. Here's their spec..... http://www.genzbenz.com/?fa=detail&mid=2858&sid=704&cid=96 I'll bung up some more images at the weekend. Collection preferred. Bass test welcomed. I'm in Swindon, SN1 4LW. Cheers guys..... and gals
