karlfer Posted February 12, 2011 Share Posted February 12, 2011 This may well be a fantastic, original bass, but even I would put a bit more effort into the photo. (Guess who's narked cos tonights gig was cancelled ). Karl.

Conan Posted February 12, 2011 Share Posted February 12, 2011 (edited) Well, it is from 1063 - which makes it pre-Norman. I'm not sure how careful an owner Norman is - but as he arrived nearly a thousand years ago we can't be too sure. Isn't he on tour over in Dublin? I'm sure I heard someone tell me that Norman is in Ireland... Still - it is a VERY old bass! Edited February 12, 2011 by Conan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chrismuzz Posted February 12, 2011 Share Posted February 12, 2011 If he sells it I hope he uses some of the money to buy a better camera for future ebay ventures! Also much respect to anyone with the balls to bid on what could pretty much be any old plank Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Assuming I got the correct 6 numbers tonight, I would still be asking for better photo's before embarking on a 400 mile round trip . Karl.
