waynepunkdude Posted September 8, 2011 Share Posted September 8, 2011 If it needs to be picked up from the Bass Bash I'll do it, I have a book to give back to Chris anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clarky Posted September 8, 2011 Author Share Posted September 8, 2011 [quote name='Beedster' post='1366402' date='Sep 8 2011, 02:00 PM']Thanks Clarky. Funny old world isn't it mate, I now own (albeit provisionally) five basses, four of which I have bought back from people I'd sold them to. You don't know what you got 'til it's gone eh [/quote] My last deal was selling Happy Jack a bass he sold to me and subsequently regretted selling ... And had that happened a week earlier I would have bought back Legion/Jas' Tony Franklin which I once owned and had originally bought from Jas. Work that one out!

I am not 100% I can make the BassBash but If I don't go I might get someone (Chiswick based and Happy, perhaps!) to bring it along if needs be as I have to somehow get my donated raffle prizes there too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beedster Posted November 1, 2011 Share Posted November 1, 2011 I'm sure Clarky won't mind if I borrow his thread, but just to continue a long standing tradition this bass is now surplus to requirements! I've managed to get my old Ovation Viper acoustic back (which is going straight to Martin Simms for a defret); I'd love to keep it but don't have space and need some cash! If you play DB you won't get closer to DB tone from a bass guitar than this. It's also capable of quite unique tones all of its own. The PUP through my Acoustic Image works a treat. Postage probably not the best bet so I'd try to organise delivery one way or another Price pretty much as per Clarky's original post but can move a little Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beedster Posted November 1, 2011 Share Posted November 1, 2011 Just checked Clarky's first post and IIRC I knocked him down a bit so offers around £200 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beedster Posted November 1, 2011 Share Posted November 1, 2011 And yes the price includes all the stuff in Clarky's thread above, i.e., bass, case, and PUP. I should add that I have a decent/strong box that I could post this in (it would therefore be in a tough soft case and a hard box). If this was sent by a courier who will insure musical instruments I imagine the risks would be pretty much minimal for all concerned Chris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clarky Posted November 1, 2011 Author Share Posted November 1, 2011 [quote name='Beedster' timestamp='1320188922' post='1423689'] I'm sure Clarky won't mind if I borrow his thread [/quote] Not in the least mate. Its a very DB-like vibe and looks great IMHO, very gypsy-jazz/Maccaferri/Selmer-like. Best of luck with the sale, Chris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I won't be too bothered if it doesn't sell though. Gotta love eBay, it's listed as 'collection only', but nearly every message I've had is along the lines "How much is postage to.......", as well as the usual "My 7 year old son really would like this for Xmas. With that in mind would you accept £50?" EDIT And now sold! Edited November 24, 2011 by Beedster Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
