Does the bass come with the MTD gigbag?

Does what it says on the tin! What you see is what you get; it was fitted to a Fender Roadworn Jazz and it is the model that comes blank, obviously it has been lightly grooved to fit a Fender Jazz bass... no idea if that is the same as a Precision! Sorry I don't have the allen key but it isn't difficult to get the appropriate size. £60 + postage [IMG]http://i54.photobucket.com/albums/g119/warwickhunt/100_2477_zpsc0f33a8e.jpg[/IMG]

Taken out of a Fender Roadworn Jazz (Wizard Hammers fitted) before I purchased the bass (sorry I can't give you an opinion on the differences). Complete with screws and the foam mounted to the bottom of the pups. £40 + postage [IMG]http://i54.photobucket.com/albums/g119/warwickhunt/100_2478_zpsc261ef72.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://i54.photobucket.com/albums/g119/warwickhunt/100_2479_zpsf25bd87d.jpg[/IMG]

Was fitted to a Roadworn Jazz and has that matt used look (unsure if it was bought like that but that is how it appears), it has the WD sticker on the underside. Please look at the pic and identify if it will fit your bass, as I say it was a direct fit for a Roadworn Jazz if that helps. £12 + postage [IMG]http://i54.photobucket.com/albums/g119/warwickhunt/100_2475_zps79e603e1.jpg[/IMG]

[quote name='plyguy' timestamp='1365249829' post='2037169'] I'm interested in this cab but have an Aguilar DB112 with tweeter to sell / trade first. Are you interested in a trade? [/quote] To help the OP; if he isn't interested in your DB112 then you'd be able to sell a single cab with tweeter on Basschat no problem! I was selling a pair and fielded about 4 offers for a single cab (especially with tweeter), sold mine no problem.

I'm waiting to have a final look at it this afternoon but I may already have a BC buyer lined up, dependent upon the final condition of the bass.

[quote name='martthebass' timestamp='1365180315' post='2036503'] Pity it's not for trade I might have something of interest ;-) [/quote] It really depends on 'what' as it'd either need to be something that I could flip easily and not lose on the deal or something that I'd like to have a try of.

[quote name='spacey' timestamp='1365173659' post='2036359'] Be-careful, you can fall in love with them. [/quote] Unlikely, I love the aesthetics and sound of them but wouldn't actually gig one even if it was free... Not much of a sales pitch! No it is a case of that it might be easier for me to sell the Ric than it will be trying to sell the two basses that the guy wants from me, hence I am offering this up for sale literally before the bass hits my sofa!

[s]This might seem an odd sale thread as I don't physically have the Ric in my hands but a friend wants to trade his Ric 4003 for two of my basses and I've theoretically agreed to it (dependent upon inspection AND response to this and other sale threads). I've not seen the Ric for a year or so since I last saw his band but I believe it's in good nick, obviously when I have it in my hands tomorrow I'll know better and update accordingly. It comes complete with the original Ric case. If I subsequently find that there is no interest in the Ric at/around this price then I won't be trading (I won't be keeping it). This picture is of the actual bass. [/s] [size=4][font=arial, helvetica, sans-serif]I took this bass in part-ex (see above) this afternoon for a couple of my basses on the understanding (and only this understanding) that a BCer categorically wanted this bass and that was after full disclosure of the facts below. I have been subsequently informed tonight (despite the emphatic assurances that their word was their bond and they were good for it) that they have had a change of heart. Absolutely reprehensible IMHO when I made it clear that I was only taking this bass because this person defo wanted the Ric and after disclosure of all details of this bass when this person gave their word that they would take it... I should have known when the person said that they were backing out of a separate deal they were involved in so that they could get my bass. Well that's off my chest![/font][/size] [font=arial, helvetica, sans-serif]​The following is the verbatim wording sent to the person mentioned above and describes the bass; [/font] [font=arial, sans-serif][size=3][size=4][font=arial, helvetica, sans-serif]'As you can see from the pics below, the overall condition is very good, as is the case. There is no worming and any dings, dinks etc aren't through to the wood BUT some of the binding is lifting and the neck pup screws are rusted (with sweat I assume). Now the screws are neither here nor there in my opinion but the binding I'm not 100% happy about; it needs reapplying in a couple of places (between the jack socket and the end of the binding at the bridge and less so between the neck joint and horn. I have contacted a local repair guy who says that he has done dozens of Rics over the years (it isn't an uncommon thing on any instrument with binding) and if it is just a case of reapplying parts of the original binding then it isn't a big job and wouldn't cost more than £50. [/font][/size][/size][/font] [font=arial, sans-serif][size=3][size=4][font=arial, helvetica, sans-serif]I may have painted this worse than it is but I'd rather be honest (I could have taken it and had the binding done before I mentioned it to you or anyone else LOL). I'm happy with the overall structure and finish of the bass and for a regularly gigged bass it is pretty good condition but the binding is something you need to decide on.'[/font][/size][/size][/font] [font=arial, sans-serif][size=3][/size][/font] [font=arial, sans-serif][size=3][/size][/font] [font=arial, sans-serif][size=3][/size][/font] [font=arial, sans-serif][size=3][/size][/font] [font=arial, sans-serif][size=3][/size][/font] [font=arial, sans-serif][size=3][/size][/font] [font=arial, sans-serif][size=3][/size][/font] [font=arial, sans-serif][size=3][/size][/font]

[quote name='GremlinAndy' timestamp='1365090006' post='2035186'] Would be interested in the Cab but am in Sheffield. Listening to suggestions.... [/quote] NO! Just NO! If you buy (and use) one more Schroeder cab Andy, the Earth may be pushed off it's axis!

Nice bass. Can I ask if Marleaux and Schack are associated at all?

I've always been attracted to this model of Ric... in fact I made an ebay offer on one last year; wonder if it was this same bass?

SOLD!

[quote name='HazBeen' timestamp='1364904386' post='2032347'] Db212 for a 1 cab solution not an option? Have a bump on me for some great cabs. [/quote] I have also owned the DB212 and as a single cab it was too large/heavy; I felt there was no discernible difference from a pair of 1x12s stacked so I sold the 2x12 and kept looking. The Berg AE212 is the first that has come close but not been a silly weight/size. These are effectively sold as I'll be taking a deposit on them today.
