karlfer Posted August 13, 2011 Posted August 13, 2011 Lot of stripping/nut/possibly neck, I'll give him £50 . Karl. Quote
Mr. Foxen Posted August 13, 2011 Author Posted August 13, 2011 Looks like a hard blow will sort the stripping, the refin might be a bit harder. Quote
Happy Jack Posted August 14, 2011 Posted August 14, 2011 (edited) What is it about these old Ned Callans that leaves them in such a state? Here's the one I had a year back: [url="http://s1128.photobucket.com/albums/m496/h4ppyjack/Ned%20Callan%201970s%20SOLD/"]http://s1128.photobucket.com/albums/m496/h...201970s%20SOLD/[/url] Edited August 14, 2011 by Happy Jack Quote
Paul S Posted August 14, 2011 Posted August 14, 2011 HJ - how heavy are these? I suspect extremely, as they are mahogany... Quote
Happy Jack Posted August 14, 2011 Posted August 14, 2011 Not too bad, actually. It's not a particularly big or thick body. Mine was in the 9lb - 9.5lb range, so no different from most P-basses. Quote
Paul S Posted August 14, 2011 Posted August 14, 2011 He just upped his start price to £150 from £50. I imagine 9/10 of the people watching will be dropping out now, including me. Quote
Delberthot Posted August 16, 2011 Posted August 16, 2011 c'mon it also has its own number stamped in the arm head Quote
MB1 Posted August 16, 2011 Posted August 16, 2011 MB1. Wonder if his great uncle was Lonely?......Mr Callan? Quote
