  1. [s]£420, £390, £375, 365[/S] [b]£200![/b] won't drop any further and no offers! (Due to forum rules, I had to create a duplicate page per instrument to reflect prices) [center]_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ [/center] Hi guys, I have two beautiful G&L ASAT Classic guitars for sale. These are Leo Fenders and George Fullertons (G&L) Fender Telecaster on steroids! Where as with Fender you pay for the name and badge, G&L pride themselves on quality and build to new specs than old and duplicated designs. The Tribute range is not to be argued with, these are hands down better than Mexican Fenders and just as equal to the American Standard line- without the case or case candy! [center]_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ [/center] This guitar is in good shape and only ever lightly played. it's in Candy Apple Red and with a rosewood fretboard. This is with a basswood body and a hard rock maple neck, this is really light and comfortable to play and still supplies the classic 'twangy' telecaster tones. [center]_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ [/center] It comes in good condition with very little usage but it doesn't come with the tags or gig bag, this being reflected in the price. [center]_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ [/center] Can be collected or delivered in a 10 miles radius of CH62 (wirral), free or arranged delivery will be at buyers expense. Paypal, bank transfer or cash UK only Any questions I'd prefer you to PM me rather than comment of the topic.

  2. A very desirable bass and a very modest price, this will be gone in no time. Ignore the comment above, don't be broken down as this is already fair
  3. Look decent for a bedroom wall of a 13 yo but these look tacky for the stage, inc the fake fender decals. Why go to the lengths when the decals cost more than the instrument?
  4. Bump up for a fab instrument and a great fella To deal with BSB
  5. [s][b]£750![/b][/s] £675! Hey folks! Sadly this baby isn't being used as much as I'd love to, due to not jamming or in a band- so my little 40W has taken the limelight and I don't want to have it collecting dust or generally ageing with no use or appreciation. I've owned this amp for around 4 years now and I hold it close to my heart as the best amp I've owned and a truly underrated Marshall Bass Amp. [center]_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ [/center] As far as I'm aware, this is an all valve, Marshall bass amp from 1981-83, making it 32-34 years old this year! It's old by age but it's still an unbelievable force. The sheer fact it's a LOUD amp with clarity and the EQ is second the none. I, personally love valve bass amps and especially for a serious rock/metal/thrash/grunge rig. It's got a lot of Bottom', smooth and varied mids and the High has that *snap* to it that cuts through the mix like a hot knife through butter. On the volume side of things, I tend to put it between 2 and 4 on the dial, loud enough and then everything else to 11 (It's a Marshall! I had to slip it in there) Absolute cracking amp and has served me well in the studios and at home practice and jams with friends. The condition is next to new for its age. Had some new valves about 18 months ago and still going strong. The output is 100W but VALVE, so this thing will blow your guitarists tiny amps away and make your drummer want to play louder. The cabinet, is a straight 4x12, not angled. Which houses 4 Celestion cones. Check the pictures for specific details. Comes in the same condition as the amp, with casters making it glide with ease. Again, for its age, it's really holding it well and for a bass amp- It's not falling away from its hinges as I expect some cabs these days would- at 30+ years old. [center]_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ [/center] [b]Price[/b]: I'm looking for £____ (check start of topic) as it's a full working amp: ready for the road, studios, homes or even practice sessions. It's been well looked after with only ever valves changed. [b]Trades[/b]: I'd like a 5 string (pref 35" scale) classic styled four string basses full amps: head and cab or combos.

However, I can deliver within an acceptable range at buyers expense for fuel there and back. UK only- sorry!

  14. There's no doubt about it, I actually just received a Gibson SG bass (short scale) and for a big 6'6" and built like a sh*t house: I actually love it! What could help the sale is more pics and if you can get any footage/sound clips of it. If I had the cash..... Atb

  17. [quote name='Gust0o' timestamp='1399817692' post='2447950'] Ah, my old one! Was just asking Grae where it had gotten to! It really hurt when I let it go, like the fool I was. [/quote] The same here brother! The paranoia of owning such a vintage and quality bass got to me in the end due to where I was living (or who was living nearby!) but damn.... They simply don't make them how they used to! Gary, I think you may have Gus hounding you back for this one but I'll vouch for him as a gentleman as we are ourselves and if you don't sort him a deal, he'll remove your post...... JOKING!! He's a great lad, big and friendly chap like myself and I'm sure if all goes well, you'll have friendship out of it too All the best with the sale, not one to be missed. Grae BigSmokeBass
  18. well, i'll be damned. My deepest apologies & thank you for teaching me something new today! on the plus side, some good free bumps for you there
  19. [quote name='Shedua511' timestamp='1399267693' post='2442533'] That's the way the Stick bass comes strung as standard. [/quote] I'm pretty sure they string them correctly in the factory, take a closer look at the lowest string and the way it's wound on Lovely instruments, wish I had the cash spare.
  20. Dear lord, who restrung that?
  21. I've just managed to trade my Fender Jag for a Gibson 2014 SG bass and it's amazing! I've never been phased by the SG/EB bass (other than the SGZ) or short scales but this really kicks like a mule: for a fast neck and quite a thumpy tone What's the EB3 like and how does it compare to the modern relatives?
  22. [quote name='EliasMooseblaster' timestamp='1398437144' post='2434124'] Hello Boys... Annie (above) is quite possibly the nicest bass I've ever played - certainly the nicest I've ever owned. She had actually completely cured me of GAS...at least until you rotten sods started showing me all these pictures of SG-Zs! [/quote] Welcoooooome to the forum! Where the GAS is never ending
  23. [quote name='neepheid' timestamp='1398432208' post='2434067'] Not really - I shall cite history - there is no historical precident for LP basses (apart from the Signature, but that's a completely different beast and the Double Cut Jr, which is a bit weird and doesn't even look like the Les Paul double cut of old which it pinches the name from) to have large tuners. Even the earliest Les Paul bass (1969-71) had Schaller M4 tuners. So did the Triumph. So does every Epiphone Les Paul bass. And every Gibson Les Paul Double Cut/Money. If you don't like the plastic O ring, and that's the only reason to change, what about these Schaller M4 Lights? [url="http://guitar-parts.biz/hp524876/Bass-Machine-Heads-M4-Light.htm"]http://guitar-parts....ds-M4-Light.htm[/url] No plastic O ring I can see, and 40% lighter than regular Schaller M4 tuners. [/quote] I know the signature bass, basically the epi Jack Cassidy sig, never actually seen one for sale- whether they're actually in circulation? They're actually sweet tuners! Shame my LP bass was stolen or I'd get some for that I never have issues with the basses but I feel something about R'n'R basses like Gibsons suit the old school tuners better... Like fender basses, most use the old clovers. Maybe it's just me
