I've had a couple of these, both of which I regret moving on, they were both excellent and MUCH MUCH lighter than the Japanese 75's I've had. Lovely bass, GLWTS

I got a 500 a few months back. Absolutely love it. Set it up at 1st gig when I got it and just have not needed to change anything except slightly different volume for slightly different venues. Amazing bits of kit imo. GLWTS

Absolutely beautiful bass Jiri, if it had been a 4, I would have! GLWTS, cheers, Karl.

Stunning. Don't know if it helps but list of specs linked [url="http://www.guitar.co.uk/music-man-classic-sabre-pdn-sledge-bass"]http://www.guitar.co...pdn-sledge-bass[/url] GLWTS, cheers, Karl.

Raslee is interested in WhiteNgold's jazz. If that went ahead then WhiteNgold would have a GB to offer to SICbass in exchange for SICbass's Yamaha. Keep up peeps This kind of menage a trois has been done quite often in the past. Good luck all.

Beautiful bass. It's great to see folk putting photographic evidence of a bass's provenance, well done fella

Hm Warwicks you say See the big red writing below this comment

[quote name='tonybassplayer' timestamp='1419934858' post='2644021'] Should this now be a police matter ?? This is not a dispute but a clear case of someone who has set out to de fraud another person and in my book that is a crime ?? [/quote] Nope apparently. Police said it was civil matter and that I should go through the procedures, namely PAINPal, then credit card co, then small claims. Small claims should be interesting with a non-existant address and an irrelevant phone number.

Perfection.

Perhaps now is the time to point out the original poster hasn't been on Basschat since May 28th. So, any interest in buying it may be better through PM

[quote name='CamdenRob' timestamp='1419765106' post='2642470'] The problem seems to be that adequate protection is available but everyone is to tight to pay for it... I always just send a normal paypal and pay the fees. Yes they are expensive but I'm paying for the protection paypal offers. As a seller I accept paypal gift for low value items or ask for the extra to cover any fees, if it was a large transaction I'd just cover the fees myself. I have in the past sent bank transfers, but only to people with extensive feedback threads and a history of selling similar value items. Unfortunately there is always going to be risk... The only way around it would be some kind of third party system as someone mentioned above, where the item and money are collected by a third party before sending out. However this would cost money and no-one seems keen on paying for anything,,, Also I'm guessing there would be potential insurance issues if the bass arrived damaged the seller could claim that it was fine when they sent it out. alot of dishonest bastards out there... What happened to karlfer above is infruiating, I would not be able to let that lie.. I'd be giving up work and hunting them down! [/quote] Try hunting them down when the address turns out to be non-existent and the phone number is for a Sunday football league. Well and truly kippered was I. And I used normal PAINPal, not PAINPal gift
