Amongst others I had a tentative offer of £100 plus an immaculate Peavey T40. Sadly the guy has been on a few times since but no further contact, so guess he's changed his mind. If nothing else happens with this bass by tomorrow night, sadly I'm going to try parting it out. Very surprised really, if it had Flea and was in gold, guess it would have been long gone. I have done a breakdown on most parts and the parts alone come to over £1200, never mind shipping, putting it together etc. Hey ho.

[quote name='skej21' timestamp='1406826274' post='2515107'] I'm looking forward to your NBD limelight thread :-) [/quote] [quote name='discreet' timestamp='1406826327' post='2515108'] Me too! [/quote] Never done one before, certainly don't have multiple brain cells or equipment for sound sample stuff. In the last two weeks, I could have done them for 54 Blue Flower P RI, Warmoth Gold Flake 54 Tribute and La Cabronita Porazza tribute. Must stop buying bloody basses

[quote name='Bassassin' timestamp='1406803910' post='2514819'] The twin neck is actually so heavy it generates its own gravity well, and is in danger of collapsing into itself & creating a black hole. This should be a great live gimmick if I can tolerate wearing it for the duration of an entire song. 17lbs, fact fans! Meanwhile, buy Ash's T-40, it's a blinder! J. [/quote] Jon, Steve Harris used to have his acoustic bass on a stand that presented it at the same height as on a strap. A nice stage touch but obviously not as impressive as Edinburgh vanishing into a black hole.

[quote name='Thunderbird' timestamp='1406744516' post='2514367'] That is the problem just recently people trying to take the piss and asking folk to knock 50-100 quid off sales that is why the market is so stale some people not having much dosh aint helping either but I think this is more than fairly priced [/quote] I'm the same. My Warmoth is an amazing bass for the sale price, simply not going to go any lower. Tom's is very fairly priced. And with it being one of his it will be VERY well sorted! Mind, last week/this week, two busiest holiday weeks of the year, so it may just be a bit quieter Bump.

[quote name='MarkusWarwick' timestamp='1406662737' post='2513570'] Is this a mehicano? [/quote] Yes it is. I have a FSR passive version in Sea Foam Pearl and it is the ONLY bass I gig with now. My Alembic, Thumb, Sadowsky, all gone. The Mex FSR passive will do everything from Etta James to Diamond Head, all with a jazz neck, no effects and without breaking into a sweat. Unlike me

Willing to look at other trades before I part it out. 3 x 54 Precisions is too much for one man I MAY have a couple of hundred quid for the right bass, but remember the trade value of this, in my eyes, will be a bit higher than that for a cash sale. Probably about £550 value on a trade. Cheers, Karl.

Here's my 2002 American Standard translucent Sunset Orange made just before they went to S1's. This will be up for sale in two months when my custom jazz arrives (my subs are paid until next year so not a stealth ad ). Original scratchplate is white but I preferred black.

[quote name='tom1946' timestamp='1406353820' post='2510821'] Karl that is beautifully understated, a lovely bass and I bet it sounds even better too. Good luck with the sale buddy. (I once had a sunset orange jazz, can't remember where I put it now........ nurse can I have my medicine pleas........) [/quote] Thanks Tom, yup it does sound very good. Wenge neck, ebony board, mahogany body, SD Custom Shop pup, it would need to sound good with those top components. Your Sunset Orange. You put it in the box and asked the nice man to bring it to me . Nurse, up his meds!
