Bassworm Posted January 28, 2008 Posted January 28, 2008 (edited) Hi All, Due to various financial and musical reasons (F'rinstance, I'm no longer gigging, AND I've got a classic VW that needs restoration:) ), it's time to move out some gear. NS CR4M - Relisted for various reasons. Ned Steinberger electric upright bass. In great condition, never been outside a rehearsal room. Currently strung with D'Addario Helicore Hybrid strings. Comes with tripod stand, otional endpin stand (rrp around 200 quid normally) and the NS gigbag. Get yourself some serious upright action (F'narr missus). 900 of your Earth Pounds. Hungarian 3/4 size double bass. WITHDRAWN - I've decided to keep this. Pics of the basses at [url="http://www.pbase.com/bassworm/bass_stuff"]http://www.pbase.com/bassworm/bass_stuff[/url]. I am of course open to offers, but no trades please, I need the cash! And if anyone wants to try anything out, you're welcome to do so. I'm in Herts, near St Albans. All the best, Mike E.

velvetkevorkian Posted January 28, 2008 Posted January 28, 2008 Any pics/more info on the carbon fibre bow? Is it one of the Chinese eBay ones? How old is the hair on it? And does the £40 include shipping? Thanks!

The bow itself is about 18months old so I assume the hair is a bit older than that but I don't know. Hair is in good condition. Dunno what the postage is to Glasgow, I'll have to check with the Royal Snail. If it's not too exorbitant I could include it in the price, but if they're feeling greedy I'd add it on. Cheers, Mike E.

Bassworm Posted February 25, 2008 Author Posted February 25, 2008 Well, Ebay wasn't a complete success so some of these items are still available, and open to reasonable offers (But no Nectar vouchers or pictures of your sister ). Go on, you know you want them....
