antti Posted September 18, 2010 Posted September 18, 2010 (edited) This is more like a feeler. It just does not get enough playing time. So, is anybody interested in my 6 string Cliff Bordwell 6 string bass? It's been modded passive but all the parts and knobs comes with the bass. It has myrtle top, walnut body and mac ebony fingerboard. It also has "normal" wear because it's been played but not gigged. 36" scale, 18mm string spacing. Comes with Protec case. Price 2500 eur or 2100 english pound + shipping. Paypal preferred. Bass is located in Finland. Like I said, this is just a feeler and I might change my mind. And no offers or trades, cash only. I already have something in my mind. Edited January 5, 2011 by antti
antti Posted September 18, 2010 Author Posted September 18, 2010 I love it too and it needs more playing time.
cheddatom Posted September 20, 2010 Posted September 20, 2010 yeh I love it. Would you care to divide the price by 10?
antti Posted September 20, 2010 Author Posted September 20, 2010 (edited) Bigger pic's and builders site is www.cbbasses.com. Also the neck is "lined". Edited September 20, 2010 by antti
antti Posted September 23, 2010 Author Posted September 23, 2010 It does not get any better than this - bump!
antti Posted September 25, 2010 Author Posted September 25, 2010 Okay, maybe trades too. But I prefer Nordy, Sadowsky or some CS Fender or so. Must be very high end and reasonable trade. Trade value also 2500. No lowballs, PLEASE.
Hemibass Posted September 28, 2010 Posted September 28, 2010 Lovely bass. I was gonna order a 6 string fretless CB but decided i really needed to play on one of his basses 1st. Real shame your not based in London otherwise i might be interested! Good luck with the sale!
antti Posted September 28, 2010 Author Posted September 28, 2010 I live in Tampere. Take from Ryanair some 20 eur return flight and come and try this one out. It is easy and cheap.
antti Posted October 3, 2010 Author Posted October 3, 2010 Some interesting stuff going on around this bass and some stuff I have to check out. Meantime another bump.
antti Posted October 8, 2010 Author Posted October 8, 2010 Some trade offers but at the same time another BUMP.
antti Posted October 9, 2010 Author Posted October 9, 2010 With these specs well over 2600 quid or 3000 eur - bump......
antti Posted October 17, 2010 Author Posted October 17, 2010 The pick-up is Nordstrand dual coil with Aguilar 3-band pre-amp - BUMP
antti Posted October 22, 2010 Author Posted October 22, 2010 ...and BUMP. I am still waiting answer from one "expert" for possible trade but if you are interested, the worst I ca do is to say no..........
Grand Wazoo Posted October 22, 2010 Posted October 22, 2010 Come on people BUY this bass, you'll never get another similar one for the money he is asking, it's not only a wonderful piece of art but also a great instrument to play. sigh... I wish I had the funds......
antti Posted October 22, 2010 Author Posted October 22, 2010 Cheers Wazoo. I can tell, this really is a "one off" with highly figured Myrtle top, two truss rod's (never needed any adjusting!), one fine Mac Ebony fingerboard (flat) and 36" scale. It also have some new "thomastik Infeld" flat's on it. Low action and could be lower. Really one hell of a bass. The reason for selling is that I am just more 4 or 5 string guy and this one deserves to be played. The more the better.
