Don't care how old it is, it's gorgeous 😍

Thanks deedee. If my acoustic gas goes away I'm withdrawing it from sale. It is a lovely bass to play and look at

Do you still have this? If so, do you have any sound clips? And do you know anything and the neck width/ fretboard radius? Is it neck heavy?

Very interested, PM me :-)

Shame it's not an acoustic bass guitar your after 😆
[/quote]Ha sorry bud. A 12 string acoustic bass would be something else though!

Bump.

Well that didn't last long! Lucky buyer

Wow that is nice!

Ah man! I had the full scale length one of this and I miss it dearly such a light bass! Plus light up knobs, what more could you want!

same sort as yours (headstock truss adjustment, headstock I think is the same) They say 80's in the advert for what it's worth..

I'll leave it undated for the moment

[quote name='ead' timestamp='1473767262' post='3132898'] Whereabouts in Scotland are you located please? [/quote]

Irvine, North Ayrshire

Home of the famous Magnum Leisure Centre

Honestly I would like break up at a fairly low level, nothing too loud but still have a decent clean thats not too quiet. Tall order I know!

seems to suggest the headstock and decals changed much earlier..

As in the bass could be earlier than 1995? This Tokai dating is bit of a headache.

Price updated to reflect the date. Make no mistake though, this is a lovely bass to play and sounds great

So valve amps out the question? Are the valvetronix amps any good?

That bass is likely to be dated 1995-1999 and not an 80s one.

The headstock design changed during this period to that of your bass...in the 1980s they were by and large a direct knock off of the Fender design.

Hmm. I'll take your word for it..

I'll amend my ad.
