Beedster Posted March 23, 2008 Posted March 23, 2008 (edited) Whaaaaaaaaaaaat.............. I can't believe this hasn't sold. My Flea Bass sold for £1000 on Ebay two months ago, and it was nothing like as well spec'd as Mark's, AND mine had been repaired and refined.... Mark, anything less than £1250 for that is too cheap so keep it mate. You know you'll only buy another one one day anyway! Or... I'm thinking about offering you a '74 Precision AND the P/J fretless we almost traded recently (now fixed by Paul C) in exchange.... However, I'm sure someone will see sense and put me out of my mIsery C Edited March 23, 2008 by Beedster

I may be trading the Flea into a local music store against an AMP. A cash sales would obviously give me more options in negotiating etc, so (Sensible) cash offers are invited and trades possible too High on my shopping list are Aguilar DB / GS 112 cabs Aguilar DB750 / AG500 MarkBass F1 Certainly other stuff considered all PM's will be considered replied to Cheers Mark

GreeneKing Posted March 28, 2008 Posted March 28, 2008 I thought I'd update on the Flea. I'm absolutely loving it, popped some new strings on today (EB Ultra Slinkeys) and actually had a raise the action a smidge, so graphite necks do move a bit I'm loving the tone when a little bit of bass is boosted and the mids are very upper middy which is great for a slappin' an a poppin' if that's your thing. Basically, I'm loving it, oops must stop repeating myself.
