Jigster Posted August 28, 2010 Posted August 28, 2010 (edited) Got this beauty, it's a bit beat up and has LOADS of mojo, but we don't really get on. I don't know why - For P Bass love I always go to my Ibanez Blazer - and so I think if there's someone wants to trade, then I'd be up for it. Matching headstock, custom metallic color and natural relic appearance and tone make this a proper bargain. The P-Bass special was one of the first active electronic basses. They didn't make huge amounts of these - so they're not common. [attachment=57722:IMG_6518.JPG] Like I said, it's an active bass with passive option. Treble, vol and bass in active mode, and tone and volume in passive. Maple neck, great CAR finish and a gold pickguard that previous owner(s) put on. Has a thumb rest to go back on also. To my knowledge, all parts are original - bought from Andy Baxter bass. The active sound is massive, with truckloads of p bass thump. Frets have a good life span. Neck is straight. It has no case, but I can include a gig bag. I would say that it's reasonably heavy, so no poorly backs should apply. I am interested in Warwicks, or Jazzers, or MM...with possible cash my way where relevant.. Pics below....Thanks for reading...[b]More pics below[/b]...

stingrayPete1977 Posted August 28, 2010 Posted August 28, 2010 I quite like this Im not sure why as its not what I would normally go for is there a cash price that would tempt you? I do have an EBMM thats used less now I have a pre EB but looking at all the "why did I sell my EB and now need another" threads Im not going to offer it up for trade!
chris_b Posted August 30, 2010 Posted August 30, 2010 Oh dear. I bought mine for £275 and sold it 3 years later for £250.... in 1992. Looks like I should have hung on to it!! Bump for a great sounding bass.
