  1. Excellent basses & those upgraded pups will make it even better! This colour looks great with a mirror scratchplate as well 🙂
  2. Top bloke. Superb bass. Terrific price. Should have been gone by now. 🤔
  3. Don't do it. Despite these being a production model, there aren't many about. 5 years or so back, the odd one that came up was about £500 used. Now the odd one that comes up is usually around £900/£1000. One loony tune had one up on eBay a few months back at £2200. They haven't been made since about 2012 I think. It's not all about the money, it's the importance of Steve's blue P especially in the 80s and whilst it's only a personal opinion, these particular basses should really be kept original as a part of rock music history.
  4. There follows a copy & paste from my Facebook advert, couple of guys discussing this bass. All public domain, on my sales advert. Gary Abell That’s my old bass 👍 Alan Jolliffe She's a beauty Gary Abell Alan Jolliffe really sorry I let it go but the pull of the 69 custom shop P was too much and couldn’t justify both , it truly is a stunning bass used it in loads of studios sounds awesome, someone’s getting a killer bass there Alan Jolliffe Gary Abell if times were different my name could well be on this.... my mate plays Sandbergs and can't speak highly enough of them.... as my band's not gigging at mo can't justify buying another bass even if I sold my other 2 to fund it . no gigs means no new basses. She is a beaut tho Nice words indeed 🙂
  5. All PM's replied. Apparently "sale only" means feel free to offer any trade you fancy 😆 I was admittedly rather tempted by a classy looking Stingray. Oops.
  6. Cheers Paul hope you're ok fella, yup, that was one more I shouldn't have sold 😆 You only know that because you are a fellow gear whore Jonny 😂 Sorry, the LE Roasted Blues is going nowhere for a long time to come. So quit stalking me 😂😂
  7. Happy to meet outside Carlisle or Berwick for a definite sale 🙂
  8. Czech Rep I think, decent prices (you can juggle the currency on the website), big range. http://www.thepickguardshop.com/Fender+®++PVVETXdBVE02a25jdmRXWjBGMlk
  9. NOW £950 cash price (collected or meet within 100 miles of Darlington) £950 couriered IF buyer organises & pays for courier £1100 trade value. 2016, with Sandberg gig bag, OR cheapo, flimsier than the Fender version (but good condition) tweed style hard case. The colour is similar to the Mark 11 Steve Harris Precision Weight 8lb 6oz. Hand aged by Sandberg's staff. This spec on a Mark 11 would be over £1700. Plek'd, zero fret, 40mm nut, so between P & J specs, vol (active/passive, push/pull), pan, treble (which also acts as a tone control in passive mode), bass. 6 bolt Canadian Rock Maple neck, rosewood board, light Ash body. I bought some sticky marker dots for the fretboard, but didn't need them. They are included in the sale. I gig share in a band so I'm not going to be out much when we finally return. 3 very expensive basses is a luxury I don't need at the moment, hence the sale. Will meet within 100 mile radius of Darlington, social distancing to be observed. NO BOX to courier in, sorry. Lovely bass, reluctant sale so please don't think anybody will hammer me down, happy to keep it for a while yet. Feedback linked at end of advert, keep safe & thanks for looking.
  10. You're back then 😂
  11. If Roger doesn't take it, I will please (set up with the Dunlop rounds).
  12. As per description, very good condition. Price includes postage UK mainland. Keep safe, Karl.
  13. I've never played a bad Sandberg. They have all set up easily as well.
  14. Tell ya how Ashdown would have got my grand post haste. 51/Tele style body, single coil HEADLESS like Dusty's in Sharp Dressed Man ❤️
  15. I have the Mk 1 version, same colour, Soft Core Aged. If this is half as good as mine it will be exceptional. GLWTS
  16. The body is 1/8th of an inch thinner than a US Standard of the time.
  17. Anecdotal but a lot more folk are buying small stuff on line that they would previously got from a shop. A lot of the small stuff up to 1 or 2 kg goes through RM, so I guess less staff, more difficult working circumstances, more small parcels, letter size etc. I've had 2 this week, one took 7 days, one took 5 days. No biggy.
  18. That Aztec Gold is stunning Nick, much like your good self 😁 Obviously the one you have for sale is as well, total classic, from a top fella. GLWTS, keep safe.
  19. Aw, shucks boys, your E payment's in the post 🤣
  20. Hmmm, your wife/carer told me she was Napoleon 🤔 Can we come out yet?
