[color=#333333] Hi, any intrest in 5 string trades? I have a made in Korea B5 bas that is upgraded with an Aguilar OBP-3 pre-amp and Warwick tuners, this bass hadn't been used for a long while as I mostly play 4stringers these days, so i had it checked up and set-up by a Luthier last week (frets are leveled,body & neck are oiled and polished & a new battery and D'addario EXL220 nickel strings were installed), so she's ready to go to a new home. I'm looking to trade for a 4 string jazz type bass and if you can wait another week I might be able to ad some cash to the deal as well.. Let me know if you are interested.

I've owned the exact same bass (I even think it's the one in my profile picture) and it was an absolute joy to play, beats any similar priced and even more expensive Fenders out there, the B string was tight and well defined and the pickup's had enough output so you didnt need a pre amp. I actually still regret selling it and would buy this in an instant if i had the cash. Price is good as well as these tend to go for 1400-1800Euros when bought new. Somebody is getting a bargain here! GLWTS

Hi, i have a modded Cort GB75 that i might be looking to trade. The bass had a professional fret level, had the pre-amp removed and has been professionally rewired with all passive tone controls. [attachment=194870:1fe72iv.jpg]

Hi, might you be intrested in a trade with a modded Cort GB75? (bass had a professional fret level and the pre amp is removed/bass is wired all passive now) I was looking to trade it for an Ibanez , but this looks like it might be a nice 6 string replacement as well.. [attachment=194868:1fe72iv.jpg]

This looks like my old Sterling, bought it as NOS from the bassgallery in 2008/2009 and sold it here on the forum. If it's the same one, it's a cracking bass, great sound,reasonably lightweight and super comfortable (more jazz width) neck. Good luck with the sale!

Are you intrested in trades? I have an upgraded Cort GB75 (made in Korea, made passive, upgraded wiring and potis, frets leveled) that i'm looking to trade towards an SR505 or SR500. [attachment=190796:1fe72iv.jpg]

Lovely basses , still regret selling mine!... Might be intrested in buying another one, but the current price is a bit too rich for me i'm afraid..(i sold mine for A LOT less)..

I really fancy one of these as well, atm i'm looking to trade in my brand new tc electronic BG250-208 combo for one of these as me and my band do a lot of busking and the Roland bass cube RX i used to use for this was lacking the power to keep up with the guitar , saxophone and percussion so i got rid of that amp. If you would be intrested in a trade with my 2 months old bg250-208 (+ cash your way of course) please let me know.

i've got a warwick RB shortscale up for trade, bought new from Thomann just 2 months ago. Looking for a trade because my big hands can't adjust to the short scale. it's this one: [url="http://www.thomann.de/be/warwick_corvette_short_scale_bk_aktive.htm"]http://www.thomann.d...e_bk_aktive.htm[/url] [attachment=182294:DSCN0283.JPG][attachment=182295:DSCN0263.JPG] Is that of any intrest to you?

Hi, i'm intrested in the mammoth clone, does it work on batteries as well or is it adaptor only?

Hi, is this the combo or the head?

I used to own one of these as well, got it cheap as a B-stock item from GAK, best deal i ever made, great sounding combo with loads of clean headroom, really miss it, only got rid of it because i needed something more lightweight. i now have a lightweight 112 combo, but the Genz Benz sounded better tho.. GLWTS!

I think fellow forum member "Evil Undead" is looking for one of these,i'll send her a link. Beautiful bass mate!

Had this up here before, but had it withdrawn because she just sounds an plays so good that i couldn't bring myself to letting her go, but as it turns out i will be travelling through Europe for the next few months and i now have my eye on a short scale bass as that will be easier to take with me on the road, so this baby has to go to fund my new purchase.

Nice!! I have the graphic of this bass tattooed all over my right arm,this would make such a nice "biomechanical synergie effect" when playing it i think.., Alas the price is a bit too rich for me i'm afraid..

[quote name='jassbass' timestamp='1400852662' post='2457563'] Ive a ibanez gw35 5 string fretless to swap? [/quote] Now withdrawn!

bump! now also intrested in a trade with a classic / acoustic g**tar as well

Bump This might be a long shot , but would prefer a trade with a Warwick Rockbass Alien of some sort (4/5 or 6 string fretted). picture of the gigbag and small blmeish near the jack plug: [attachment=163558:DSCN0514.JPG][attachment=163559:DSCN0521.JPG]
