brycebites Posted August 31, 2010 Posted August 31, 2010 (edited) Here is my Dean Edge 5 up for sale. I bought it around 2003 then sold it in 2007 IIRC. I missed it after selling it, then bought it back last year. The trouble is, even though it is so nice to play, I don't. Really because I'm more of a 4 stringer at heart. It's got a basswood body with the original Dean pickups and a Seymour Duncan STC P3 preamp (3 band with adjustable slap contour) and currently sports DR Purple Passion strings (yeah - nice and tarty! ). They playability of this bass is for me the nicest 5 string I've played. A lovely 35" rather flat 5-piece neck with a good weight to the bass. It's in good condition with a couple of scratches but nothing to write home about, and has a nicely worn in neck. I'm after £220 and it comes with the leather strap, Schaller strap lock and a hard case. I'd rather meet up or have collection from Bristol. Edited October 28, 2010 by brycebites
MoJoKe Posted January 22, 2011 Posted January 22, 2011 I owned this one too, bought from Brycebites!! This really is a lovely, playable five string. At this price this is [b]great [/b]value and would make for an ideal "first" fiver. ++1 for this bass!! Buy it!!

rmshaw37 Posted April 13, 2011 Posted April 13, 2011 Could I ask for the nut width and string spacing at bridge please?
brycebites Posted April 13, 2011 Author Posted April 13, 2011 You can indeed. I'll post it up tonight.
dc2009 Posted April 13, 2011 Posted April 13, 2011 I'd possibly be interested in a swap for my Dean q4 Bartolini (Tiger's Eye Quilt Maple - pics can be supplied on request), it never gets played as I have my Warwick these days, though I fear the same may happen to this one if I got it off you. It's also in fantastic condition, as I never gigged before I owned my Warwick. Let me know if you'd be interested and I will have a serious think.
brycebites Posted April 13, 2011 Author Posted April 13, 2011 Sorry, I'm just looking to sell as I have too many basses to use (never thought I'd say that!).
dc2009 Posted April 13, 2011 Posted April 13, 2011 Fair enough. I'm looking at having to buy a thunderbird or similar for this new project but otherwise I'd be keen for this. I already have too many basses as well!
brycebites Posted April 13, 2011 Author Posted April 13, 2011 Is that an epiphone thunderbird or gibson? I have a "well used" thunderbird I might let go of.

Axebassmurderer Posted April 15, 2011 Posted April 15, 2011 Well I'm really interested, would you be able to message me personally?
