Jam Posted October 17, 2010 Share Posted October 17, 2010 (edited) Hopefully getting in a new bass in the week so I thought it was about time I got rid of some that were just sitting there. First up: Aria Electro-Acoustic fretless bass. I've played it maybe 10 times in the few years I've had it, it plays fine but I just can't be dealing with fretless. As I understand it this is slightly unusual; I've not seen any other ones that are fretless. Good condition, no dings or scratches, electronics work fine. Comes with a padded gigbag. £130 No longer on hold. Taking offers on both of these now. [attachment=61648:DSC04365.JPG] [attachment=61647:DSC04363.JPG] As I said, I just want to get rid of them so I'll probably consider any serious offers. With regards to posting, I'd rather not have to, but if you're in/near Oxford then you're more than welcome to come try them. I can come meet you halfway if you're not too far away.

Jerry_B Posted October 17, 2010 Share Posted October 17, 2010 (edited) My god, I've not seen one of those Hohners for a very long time - late '80s or so! They're good basses! Edited October 17, 2010 by Jerry_B Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jerry_B Posted October 17, 2010 Share Posted October 17, 2010 I don't know anything about them as such. A girl I was was in a band with back then had one of these - same colour too. Just a solid inexpensive bass. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jam Posted October 21, 2010 Author Share Posted October 21, 2010 Bump, over 400 views and no interest? The fretless, I should add, is unlined. For those of you that fancy a challenge. I just don't have the patience or inclination for fretless. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was black originally and I have roundwounds on it. It's capable of an almighty growl! I only use mine for recording, so don't have a problem with the weight, but if I took it out to gig, I'd be seriously considering getting a back-up.
