kurcatovium Posted June 6, 2011 Posted June 6, 2011 (edited) Here's my Cort GB74. It's one of the first run, made in Korea, in lake placid blue metallic color with matching headstock and pearloid pickguard. The bass have been "gutted" to passive with vol, vol, tone controls. There are two switches - one is for coil splitting the bridge pickup (series, single, parallel) and the other good old dummy switch :-) Cheap mighty mite pickups were also replaced with local brand (RM Pickups), and the tone is much, much better ever since. I still have original active circuit (which it's not very good) which will of course be included in trade. Tha bass is currently strung with new set of .40 Kyser strings, action is very low and the bass is really joy to play. Stays in tune well (licensed hipshots) and could do from punchy jazz tone to "woody P bass" style. I just paid for new bass so this is no longer for trade. Price is [s]£300[/s] [b]£250[/b] or best offer (postage to UK included).

Cosmo Valdemar Posted June 7, 2011 Posted June 7, 2011 (edited) I don't have any J style basses to offer, but have a bump for a beautiful bass. Love the matching headstock! Edited June 13, 2011 by Cosmo Valdemar
richardrickenbacker Posted June 8, 2011 Posted June 8, 2011 (edited) I really like it - and I normally only like retro looking genuine fender gibson things. Never been into copies. BUT this is great looking. Only problem is that you are way too far away for a meet up and also I have noting to trade. Have a bump any way! Anyone selling a similar bass in the UK??

kurcatovium Posted June 12, 2011 Author Posted June 12, 2011 I thought about it and I think I could also trade the bass for cash... Let's say £280 if you need some numbers :-)

kurcatovium Posted June 13, 2011 Author Posted June 13, 2011 LukeFRC: I checked with the courier I use when buying from UK and they say shipping would be £30.
kurcatovium Posted June 18, 2011 Author Posted June 18, 2011 Just paid for new bass (jazz), so this is no longer for trade. Also price dropped to £250 including courier to UK. Is there really no love for lake placid blue cheapo, but well playing bass?
chimpypits Posted June 18, 2011 Posted June 18, 2011 If you still have this on the 28th I'll be very interested
kurcatovium Posted June 21, 2011 Author Posted June 21, 2011 There's some interest localy so if you want this you should be quick...
