karlfer Posted May 14, 2011 Share Posted May 14, 2011 So am I Tom. Only thing that put me off is the nut is far too recessed into the top of the neck. Something not right there. Asking the question of the seller, I was told all the guitars he sells are perfect, sadly he didn't answer my question as to wether the truss rod still worked, was maxed out, if the neck was twisted etc. So, I'm out.

Delberthot Posted May 15, 2011 Share Posted May 15, 2011 I bought a bass off this guy - it was a Yamaha TRB6 copy, even had the Yamaha logo on the headstock and came with a Yamaha owners manual. But it was absolutely shocking - scratches, poorly finished frets, damage to the end of the fretboard, neck like a banana. Needless to say it went right back to him and I got a refund. Chinese copies perhaps? I couldn't say for certain but I'd never had a copy with the logo on the headstock and an owners manual before so whoever is making them is going to some lengths to try and pass them off as originals Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
karlfer Posted May 15, 2011 Share Posted May 15, 2011 Thanks for sharing Delberthot, kinda backs up my gut feeling. Shame didn't have Basschat when I lived in Brightons, couldv'e had a wee swallie. Karl. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tom1946 Posted May 15, 2011 Author Share Posted May 15, 2011 Thanks for the input guys, I hadn't noticed the nut Karl. I was so close to buying it too. My gut said no even though it's exactly the colour I want Ah well.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
