Delberthot

I'm looking for a headless bass, preferrably a Washburn Status but may consider others as long as they are the full size body and not cricket bat type.

I've not long had this as it was meant to be used for the project I was working on involving using all kinds of MIDI gubbins and synths but its not happening so I don't need it any more. Its a 6 string, active 2 band EQ, bolt-on neck and gold hardware. The output jack wasn't 100% so I've replaced it with a Neutrik one and its all tickety boo. Considering I play a Thunderbird with a neck like a pencil, the string spacing and neck dimensions on this are pretty good. Its quite narrow but still very playable. probably more along the lines of an Ibanez SR1016 I used to have as opposed to the ironing board Yamaha TRB6 I used to have. There's a wee bit of neck dive but I've yet to play a 6er that doesn't have it a bit of it but a good neoprene or suede strap takes care of the worst of it. It will come in a decent gig bag and £135 gets it delivered to your door for mainland UK. It will probably be a bit more for Ireland, Europe etc. Photbucket is being a pain - despite making sure that they were the right way up before uploading them, they appeared the wrong way up on Photobucket so I rotated them again only to find out that when I link to them they're still all over the place.

Now also for sale bump £140 delivered to your door - mainland UK only. Europe, Highlands & Islands & Ireland will cost more but I can get you a quote if interested.

Had a few more ideas for trades but I doubt someone will have exactly all or some of this to trade for this bass: Headset vocal mic Tech 21 VT Bass Phaser pedal Trace 2103H 2x10" Bass Chorus or Chorus that works well with bass I'll add more to the list when I can think of more stuff that i might need

I think I need to be a bit more specific here. I'd be up for trades on stuff like effects, other basses (no fretless though) especially short scale (not an EB-0),a Thunderbird with bag, maybe a cab of some description (preferrably Trace)

Yes it is, the single pickup EB-0 is the short scale version with bolt-on neck

I literally bought this a couple of weeks ago second hand to do one gig which I've done. I needed something that looked quite 60s and although the Thunderbird was out in the 60s it doesn't look 60s. From the serial it looks like a 2009 Made in China model. To be honest I don't see any difference in contruction, finish or playability between the Korean ones and the Chinese ones. Its actually quite scary how good the Chinese are at making stuff. Anyway specs are that it has a mahogany body with a mahogany set neck and rosewood fretboard Controls are as per Rickenbacker with a separate volume and tone for each string and a 3 way pickup selector to choose between neck pickup only, neck and bridge and bridge only. With the neck pickup soloed it does a mighty Animals “We’ve got to Get Out of This Place” sound. With bridge pickup only it sounds remarkably honky like a Jazz bass. With both pickups it sounds very nice. A good balance of deep, rich bass and nice, clear midrange. Using a normal Levys suede strap it balances very well which surprised me when I had one of these before as i thought it would immedaitely try to head for the floor Condition is nigh on perfect. If you hold the back of the body up to the light you can see some very faint scratches on the very top of the surface. other than that I can't see anything else. I could easily have said that it was new and no one would have been any the wiser. It comes with a basic gig bag that's a bit of a squeeze to get the headstock in due to the big headstock and 2 a side full size tuners but it does fit, just. open to trades as well - see below

Its surprisingly cheaper than you would think to courier a cab. Going by the dimensions and weight [url="http://www.peavey.com/assets/literature/manuals/80301560.pdf"]here[/url] and allowing for cardboard round it adding to the dimensions and weight I've just got a quote from interparcel for £6.99 + VAT Its their economy service and is normally UPS that collects and delivers it.
