[quote name='Gust0o' post='1036536' date='Nov 25 2010, 04:01 PM']Looks awesome. Argyll would, sadly, be a mission.[/quote] Yep - but I have driven as far south as Moffat and even Lockerbie to help Still up for grabs - as a bedroom player this is way beyond anything I need.

Desired donation due dutifully donated.

And it's away to it's new home. Realta - for it is she - is sad to learn she'll never share another one night stand with esp. My sincere apologies to those who were trying, but I can only do this on a first come first served basis.

[quote name='TomTom' post='1036144' date='Nov 25 2010, 11:54 AM']I could have traded a bass for this less than a week ago, and now you put it up for sale? Would you be interested in any trades? I cant justify spending any more money on instruments, but i REALLY wanted this bass.[/quote] Hi Tom - I know the (gut) feeling. I'm prone to trusting that feeling. When I seen the bass I REALLY wanted it, too. Then Mr Merello was kind enough to let me play it and I wanted even reallier. Brought it home and struggled without the markings on the side of the neck and my gut feeling was someone else will love it more than me.

[quote name='Linus27' post='1036756' date='Nov 25 2010, 06:56 PM']If I buy this bass do I get a go on .... actually I'm going to stop right there [/quote] Wise! I can tell you this model may well become very well known to us all shortly. She is a karate black belt, 2nd Dan and in training to represent Scotland. She was gutted when Karate was not chosen as a sport for the forthcoming Olympics in London. More simply - not to be pissed around!

And another angle to illustrate the condition of bodywork and appointments.

Detail shots to illustrate the condition of the bass as requested. [quote name='AndyTravis' post='1036698' date='Nov 25 2010, 06:14 PM']I assume this is MIJ?[/quote] Most certainly is!

[quote name='merello' post='1036493' date='Nov 25 2010, 03:38 PM']Wow! A one night stand with a bass! [/quote] One night? I had to convince the model the bass is spoken for, innocent and in need of parental guidance.

Would more pics help?

The body is amazing. Curvaceous, well balanced and, well, sensual to the touch.

Just in case any were concerned that the bass did not in fact have a head stock.

I've not had this a handful of days, but a design element means I play it like a beginner. So you know guys - there are NO dot markers to the side of the neck and I hadn't even realised how subtly important that has become to my hand placement and subsequent playing accuracy. I can either Heath Robinson a temp solution (and ruin my visual enjoyment) or let someone else not bothered by this have it instead. The bass owes me £320 and did not have a case until today when I got a hard soft case. So, I can ship in either 1. A hard/soft case for £25 2. Buy a new case for £40 from gear4music.com 3. Travel a bit for petrol money to aid collection 4. You can arrange your own courier. Shipping costs - I can't say how much until I know where it's going. As ever - more pics to follow.
