  1. Cheers Tim. Folk are putting 90's jazzes up for £900. There is a 1999 one of these Hot Rod's for sale, Southside, Glasgow (on Bumtree) at an eye watering £1100 . I am now really looking to help fund a Fender Custom shop, but I'm not going to give this away. Hence, probably last bump. Might put the 2011 White/maple/black P back up. Cheers, Karl.
  2. Skej, what sort of lead time did Mark quote you please?
  3. That is stunning, wow
  4. It's a bloody ridiculous steal of a price. Difficult to understand why this is still here.
  5. Oh God, Mark has a Burgundy Mist J and Fiesta Red P, both reliced, on his site at the moment. Really struggling to avoid the J
  6. NOTE FOR MODS. Liam saw my ad for this bass on Gumtree. I advised him to check my feedback on here. He ended up joining
  7. JV's were going out at up to an astronomical £1500 a couple of years ago. Quite a few in the £1200 bracket. Now bringing not a lot more than half that. Dingus is right of course, but there are more complex reasons at work as well.
  8. Link updated but not sure if the poster's security settings allow public viewing, as it obviously just comes straight up for me. If it doesn't work, try Karl Altdorfer on Faecesbook. As I stated, it's low quality on a phone camera, you can just about hear a bit of bass. Mind you, when people have done this in the past, you couldn't hear ANY bass.
  9. [quote name='BetaFunk' timestamp='1401130853' post='2460435'] I'm just curious but in what way did it impact on the 2nd hand market? [/quote] Well for example Marcus Miller jazzes. As they came to the end of the Japanese production, they were selling new at over £1000. So people put them up second hand at £750/£850. A quick search on t'interweb showed that their 2004 (for example) MM had sold new for £449. So people looked at £850 second hand and thought privately, " ye hav te be jokin bonny lad".
  10. Tim, don't know if you are aware of the US folks in the following link, but they do a superb range of top quality decals for fretboards including fake MOP. That Bob Glaub with the Billy Sheehan fret markers, they came from Creative Cuts. Reasonably priced, excellent quality and service and even a goon like me can fit them http://myworld.ebay.co.uk/creative-cuts
  11. I think there are a lot of factors at work. Huge amounts of basses for sale here. Many of us have been spoilt for choice over the last few years. FEEBay has seen sellers push up prices to cover the 13.4% you CAN be charged, some folk try for the same sort of price on here as is seen for an item on FEEBay. Once upon a time you would see the numbers online indicator at the bottom of the home page showing 3000/5000 online, now it rarely shows more than about 500. That suggests a significant drop in people viewing, unless of course the method of counting them has changed. Oh, and a lot of folk are skint.
  12. Is this "relatively" cheap because it's a set neck? Pity Norwich is 4.5 hours each way for me . Oh and it's a 5 string [url="http://www.gumtree.com/p/for-sale/warwick-dolphin-sn5-bass-guitar-excellent-condition/1026884159#photo-content"]Warwick Dolphin SN5 Bass Guitar - Excellent Condition! | Long Stratton | Gumtree[/url]
  13. Looks different, not the usual black box, obviously. My spine cries just looking at it. Those rotaries and switches wouldn't last very long where they are.
  14. David, click on his name in any of his posts (the norwood bit that is underlined) That opens a new box. In that box, near the top right are three rectangles. The middle one says " send me a message" Click to open it, write your topic, your message, then click near bottom to send.
  15. Glad in a way, I was going to reduce my 2000 Hot Rodded tonight, to complete funding for this. Somebody is going to be very happy
  16. Yet another stunning bass Bump.
  17. VERY tempting . Fairly sure you need to take the neck off to find year of manufacture on these?
  18. [quote name='mirszmarsz' timestamp='1400867894' post='2457775'] Nice one ... but we from europe will keep hands double off course [/quote] Sorry, not quite sure what you mean? If it's because I state UK only, I always do that HOWEVER, I have sold basses to Europe when asked to. I do ask for the following though. 1. Money to be paid in GBP, by bank transfer (this usually takes 3 days to clear from Europe). 2. Buyer to arrange their own INSURED courier, and buyer to let me know what day courier will collect. My feedback is linked below and shows I have done this in the past. I simply prefer NOT to do it as I have had problems (an Aerodyne lost for 3 weeks in Genoa airport springs to mind ). This bass ready for action at last nights gig [url="http://s1354.photobucket.com/user/Karl_Altdorfer/media/DSCF0537_zpsd8efc1c4.jpg.html"][/url]
  19. I would, but not nearly 300 miles away!
  20. Well, as Diamond Head once said, "Am I evil...yes I am"
  21. Somebody is going to get lucky!

  22. [quote name='dodgnofski' timestamp='1400778183' post='2456949'] + 1 for rosewood - must resist, please tell me it's a pan pot jobbie that I don't like and not a vol, vol, tone layout !! [/quote] Sorry Tim, IT IS vol vol tone ! By the way, Roqsolid appear to have a relaunch kinda thing with 15% off, so worth a try for your TC perhaps?
  23. Took me a couple of days to twig that Tim. Age is my excuse and I'm sticking with it
  24. Ah, NOW I understand Top blokey peeps, get it bought. Bump.
