  1. I'm surprised I haven't had more interest, when I bought it everyone was clamoring to get it and I almost felt like I won a race when I finally bought it. You can't find better value if you want to try your hand at fretless. Has a beautiful muah to it and passive electronics, 2 volume controls and 2 tone controls. Very solid, very sturdy and sounds the part, does not sound 'cheap' at all. Structurally looks great, tight neck pocket, no crack or even dings that I can find. As I said before, Sugden (a b/c member) sold it to me and I think it was owned by another b/c member before him. I'm sure they'd both will testify that there's absolutely nothing 'wrong' with the bass and sold only to upgrade. If you're not sure if you'll like fretless and just want to give it a go this is a great deal!
  2. I take back what I said about the pots, a bit of contact cleaner and they're pucker! The volume control for the bridge pickup is a bit less tight than the other volume control but no issues whatsoever with either volume control or the pot/pan tone control. It must be one of the most portable full length scale bass ever! A real bargain! Have a few requests for posting it but would rather not if I can help it. Will be going to look for a box for it tomorrow, unless someone around here wants to come and pick her up. Otherwise for those of you who requested postage I'll find out what it'll cost and be back with you tomorrow (if I can get to the post office before they shut) or if not monday. Cheers, Matt
  3. Sugden sold this to me a while back, a great way to get into fretless bass. Works great, no frills, does what it says on the tin. I'm sure seeing as it's making it's way through the forum, many people can attest to it's playability. I'll let the pictures do the talking. Collection from Cambridge preferred, but willing to post if you cover P&P.
  4. Sorry guys, might have been on the forum for a year but this is my first posting. Didn't even realise my draft got posted, so when I uploaded the thread I was surprised that there was already a post waiting!
  5. I have a Hohner B2a for sale, it works well but has been played extensively over the last few years, so expect the usual dings here and there but nothing major. Excerpt from [url="http://www.incredibid.co.uk/acatalog/B2A_Headless_Bass_Black.html"]http://www.incredibid.co.uk/acatalog/B2A_H...Bass_Black.html[/url] (who sell it for £350): "From Hohner, this stylish little guitar is a very popular bass, excellent quality made from all top quality components. Solid U.S. maple body and neck; neck-thru-body construction; rosewood fingerboard; two-way adjustable truss rod; 24 frets; Steinberger® licensed headless DB detunable bridge; two Select by EMG® humbucking pickups; active tone controls; active on/off switch with LED; two volume controls; one concentric tone control; and a fold-out leg rest. Always very popular as a travel instrument as the size and weight is vastly reduced compared with a conventional bass guitar.| The action is still beautiful and is great for tapping the pots are slightly stiff but still work well giving a wide range of tones. It's so conveniently small that it fits into an electric guitar soft case. Sold with a set of La Bella Double Ball S100S (045 065 085 105) strings. The battery cover is missing but 9V stills sits snug. Several reviews: [url="http://reviews.harmony-central.com/reviews/Electric+Bass/product/Hohner/B2A/10/1"]http://reviews.harmony-central.com/reviews...Hohner/B2A/10/1[/url] [url="http://www.bgra.net/2004/review.php?id=1981&type=bass"]http://www.bgra.net/2004/review.php?id=1981&type=bass[/url] [url="http://www.bgra.net/2004/review.php?id=348&type=bass"]http://www.bgra.net/2004/review.php?id=348&type=bass[/url] Seeing as she's going for a song, hardly any point posting if you're in the area, so collection possible from Cambridge.
