Was more an example that there are project grade SB’s out there. Didn’t look into the specifics 👍🏼

I had a lovely Japanese Fender just like this...what a looker!

Aria Pro II 1979 Longscale (24 Frets) Bass Guitar + Original Case

Well, I saw an uncharacteristically Frank response from Mr S on Facebook regarding some wobbles. He’s on the next possible flight to the factory to sort these issues. Covid allowing... but, it would’ve been better to wait I suppose - depends on the investment and need to turn that into cash.

Aria Cardinal? Fretless might have to be a defret? or, like I said before, an Ibanez Mezzo is a couple of hundred quid and a decent defret is about £100.

“Bowie didn’t sing ‘how dare you’ did he?” was what I had... I really enjoyed it. 🤷🏻‍♂️👍🏼

Saw this before got me thinking 😂

Spector do 24/pj as do Warwick...ibanez on a couple of models. Yamaha TRBX 170/270.

I’ve got this, it’s not definitive by any means, it’s actually pretty useless on the bass front. It’s a nice book though.

Oooooh

Yeah, I assumed as much, was more rhetorical...but people fall for it, it’s got bids etc.

This red one is a one off and he’s hinted that it could be a prototype for a sig model.

That version of Lets Dance was ace. I had an older BTB 676 and although I never got to grips with it and sold after about 2 months, it was a great bass.

There’s a guy asking £1800 for a Gibson EB, think that’s 3 times what they were new RRP and about £1300 more than they were when not many people bought them and they were on clearance lists everywhere.

I think realistically the most you can be asking... Any condition issues, go south of these... Just my opinion of course, but I’d want something super light or factory fresh for more than this. 414 £200 614 £250 415 £250 615 £300 424 £300 425 £350 1024 £500 1025 £550 2024 £1200 2025 £1250 I haven’t differentiated between x/non x... CX/MX/MA versions not withstanding due to scarcity.

If it was £300 I could live with myself. But £650 is hilarious.

Yeah, a real shame - it’s about 3 miles from me. I predict it will stay at that distance for some time.

Yeah, magically adds £350 to its value. £250 and I’d have bought it...but £300+ and I’d go looking for a 1024

@Ed_S i remember when they another e2 stuff. I was still in the shop at the time...”what the hell are they thinking?!” Bad marketing idea - shame as there were some nice models in it.

The red 424x now relisted at £650?! Wow 😳

What just wrecked the Mic? I really loved the LTD TS-4 I ordered in for a customer when I worked in a shop. Basically the same bass, but relic white with EMG’s. Spotted this too - they do it in black now, but it’s pleasant enough...

Why do these questionable (I.e. Fake) fenders always come from house clearances? Not a Fender of any format.

This - absolutely loved it. Made hairs on my arms stand up, having played this in several covers bands - I was really happy to hear this reworked version. Roisin Murphy is absolutely ace.

Cheers for this. Seems really positive, can’t deal with heavy though.

Haha, nah...just looking guv, honest..
