flippyfloop Posted September 5, 2010 Posted September 5, 2010 (edited) Bass Collection 4 string for sale. Think it's the 461 model. This is one of the original 90's model's. Not to be confused with the horrible new ones. Bought from ' Smash ' on this very site. Looking to get back what I payed for it. £275 plus postage. This is a lot of bass for the money. I've cleaned it up and has a set of DR's. Gutted I have to sell it but I'm skint and need to buy a new computer for rendering. Japanese sen body, padauk facing, ebony fingerboard, controls are volume / pickup pan / bass / treble. Very good condition apart from a slight bit of wear above the P pickup. There's a lot of buzz about these basses on Basschat here- [url="http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=697&hl=Nanyo"]http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=697&hl=Nanyo[/url] [url="http://c.imagehost.org/view/0242/all_other"][/url] [url="http://c.imagehost.org/view/0336/all3"][/url] [url="http://c.imagehost.org/view/0276/head"][/url] [url="http://c.imagehost.org/view/0247/back_all"][/url] [url="http://c.imagehost.org/view/0313/back"][/url] The camera has created some weird markings between the 2 pickups / between the E string.

Delberthot Posted September 5, 2010 Posted September 5, 2010 nice - I remember having the 5 string version and seeing the same bass for sale in Sound Control going second hand for about £600
Rayman Posted October 26, 2010 Posted October 26, 2010 I'm surprised to see this still here, they really are fabulous basses these.
TheGreek Posted October 27, 2010 Posted October 27, 2010 [b]I knew these were good basses[/b]..I stopped playing Bass for a few years and considered buying a Bass Collection when I started playing again but all the advice was that they weren't really all that. I'd played one at a Guitar Fair in the mid 80s and I was impressed so I couldn't believe that nobody rated them. Now I know the history (cheers Jack) I know why they made such an impression way back when..This is a fine looking bass and if I didn't have too many I'd think about buying it. Best of luck with the sale..
Happy Jack Posted November 12, 2010 Posted November 12, 2010 Well thank God for that! That's a lovely bass, and I'm delighted to have some temptation removed.
