Clarky Posted August 23, 2011 Posted August 23, 2011 (edited) I am advertising a six year-old Ashbory bass on behalf of the frontman in Rattlin Bone, Wily Bo Walker (who is also a bass player). Comes with case and three extra three sets of silicone strings (helpful, as they can be hard to get hold of and what's more cost £16 a set [url="http://www.stringsdirect.co.uk/products/1899-dearmond_ashbory_bass_strings)"]http://www.stringsdirect.co.uk/products/18...y_bass_strings)[/url]. The bass is blue in colour and hardly used. You know the score with these - superb DB tone emulation and a lot of fun, as long as you don't have fingers like sausages! Bo is after £150 plus post (which shouldn't be much as its so small, probably about a fiver). Other Ashbory's on BC have gone for about this level but don't typically include well over £40 worth of extra strings. I can vouch for Bo 100%. Please drop me a PM if interested and I will pass on Bo's contact details. Here's a pic of the bass: [attachment=87700:ASHBORY.JPG] Edited August 25, 2011 by Clarky
Clarky Posted August 24, 2011 Author Posted August 24, 2011 Update: I have put an interested BC'er in touch with Bo so this may be gone later today

alyctes Posted August 27, 2011 Posted August 27, 2011 I did email him, but it's not the same somehow...

So for some its perfect for recording DB type parts

alyctes Posted August 28, 2011 Posted August 28, 2011 The new strings do make a difference. Short answer to TheGreek, I am a player of bass, rather than a bass guitarist; there is a difference. Do PM me if you wish to discuss further.
