  1. Just had the pleasure of a meet up with Steve. Cracking piece of gear and he went out of his way to make it easy for me. Absolute pleasure Steve, thanks for everything, really appreciated. Deal with utmost confidence peeps, top bloke
  2. Very nice Sandberg budget bass, NOT the full fat German one (what, at this price ). Korean parts, assembled and QCd in Germany. Currently around £630 new. New strings, new set up, just oil'd fingerboard. The Celtic dot markers are so I can see where I am in poor light. Just stickers, so can be removed leaving no residue. Lightish at 8lb 8oz. PLEK'D..... not many in this price bracket have that. Zero fret (as above). Active/passive on vol control, then Balance & stacked bass/treble. Great bridge. Easy to set up to your requirements. I suppose these could be likened to Sandbergs version of Mex Fender? Dunno, but it's a good bass that is being usurped by a Flea. Collection Wigan,or meet up within 30 miles of Wigan. Feedback linked below. I will chuck in a horrible beat up gig bag to keep the rain off. Sorry, no trades. Thanks for looking, Karl. EDIT,! Oh, I have the black scratchplate & all the screws, but unlike most Fenders you can remove it without exposing big holes
  3. [quote name='ash' timestamp='1505933007' post='3375358'] Calling Karlfer! [/quote] [quote name='walshy' timestamp='1505933198' post='3375360'] I was just about to shout the same! [/quote] [quote name='Muppet' timestamp='1505933904' post='3375363'] I thought about adding Karl's name to the thread title......... [/quote] Bloody comedians I'll get my own back, I will repulse you with what I get shot of next!
  4. Yup, I'll have that Steve, thank 'ee. Go to PM I would like to organise collection from Stockport please.
  5. Just simply put, it's always a pleasure dealing with Tom. He really is one of the very best. Enjoy the Tango mate, until the next time
  6. On hold thanks folks
  7. Excellent condition, 1 ding on headstock, won't show in photos. Hand built at Gibson's Memphis, Tennessee factory. The Gibson ES-335 bass is built to the original carving specifications, and updates the electronics with a pair of warm, crisp humbuckers. Pre pack inspection Jan 21st 2014. The neck on the Gibson ES-335 electric bass is carved from a single piece of quarter-sawn maple, 34-inch scale length. Set neck, 41mm nut, all-rosewood fingerboard, and inlaid on 8 frets with traditional white dot inlays. This ltd edition is cut to the exact original body specs, with all-maple arched top and sides, and the 1961-style maple centerblock. Weight is just over 9lb. Unlike the originals the neck pup has been moved to centre position, giving more definition than the originals "mudbucker". The humbucker in the bridge position instantly delivers that big percussive sound characteristic of Gibson's semi-hollowbody basses. Separate Volume and Tone pots on each pickup, 3 way toggle switch The 3 point bridge has been replaced by a Babicz full contact. I DON'T have the original bridge, you can find them used for about £30. It's a pig to photo so there's one from Chicago in there as well. - 100 percent American Made in Memphis, TN TRADES American Jazz Deluxe 2014 onwards. Any trial in Wigan. Thanks for looking, cheers, Karl.
  8. Black or Red Mike?
  9. Stunning Phil (the jazz, not you, obviously ) GLWTS
  10. Absolute steal Steve. If you weren't so far away, it would be mine (and put back to original & the upgrades flogged ). GLWTS
  11. Timing, always bloody timing I've agreed to trade my Hot Rod for a Gibson Memphis ES335 bass (+some loot, it's more expensive than the Hot Rod). So, for the next week or two, no loot
  12. Over 30 trade offers, 3 people fund raising, but finally tempted by a trade
  13. Cheers Bri. On hold.
  14. Over 20 basses offered in trade, some a little more realistic than others . 4 people fundraising to buy this. Still here though. Probably going to remove if it's still here next weekend as it would appear this uncommon bass is not quite desirable enough for folk to bite the bullet.
  15. Not the only one. My ad for Fender American Hot Rod has vanished (reported to MB1 & Ped last night). Looks like Black Coffee had an incident with his Steve Harris as well. Wonder if the word "trade" is significant. I know I'm up to date with my £20
  16. £800 with TATTY GIGBAG rather than hardcase. You won't see many of these this year. Still have a few bob towards the right jazz as well.
  17. Great bass at a great price. GLWTS
  18. It's a normal Jazz Bass Deluxe, from 2006. Very nice. 2006 was Fender's 60th anniversary (the Jazz didn't come along until 1961), most of Fenders instruments had the 60th Anniversary sticker/badge in 2006. GLWTS
  19. All pm's replied & sold. Thanks for all the interest folks, cheers, Karl.
  20. Cheers Foxy, very kind. On my radar but I need to sell something 1st
  21. Any trial in Wigan. Sunset Orange Transluscent (a pig to photo) American Standard Precision, 2006 , Ash body, Maple board. They look MUCH better with a black plate rather than parchment. Relatively light for Ash at 9lbs 1oz. Good condition, a few cymbal nibbles, slight (certain light) scratching on the back. S1 model, graphite rods, 41.3mm nut. No case, just one of them crappy Fender Deluxe gigbags, that the pocket zips go on (main zip is fine). Feedback below, any trial in Wigan. Can't courier at the moment, so would need to be a meet up I'm afraid. TRADES!!! Fender Road Worn Jazz Fender Road Worn "Flea" Jazz. Nothing else PLEASE. Thanks for looking, cheers, Karl.
  22. Cheers Dunc This could have been sold half a dozen times over, but as stated in the initial post, I am sadly not in a position to courier at the moment.
  23. All further PM's, offers replied to thanks. Still currently here.
  24. Great price for a Master Built, glorious looking bass
