greyparrot Posted October 7, 2011 Posted October 7, 2011 (edited) I have no idea why but i cant seem to upload photos ? any help? Ok....i have decided to sell my imacculate O/W perception 5 that comes with hard case. Im looking for a cash sale of £825 (cheque/cash or bank transfer) i am open to close neg. This is a real Pro players bass, a real working bass that is great for any situ. Unfortunatly its no good for a 50,s band so i have a sunburst p. Sadly no pay pal. I can courier the bass but prefer to F2F. I am selling as i have recently purchased an old fender P bass for some rock n roll work i have coming up. This bass can make any sound, funk/slap/jazz you name it it can do it. I have attached a couple of vids for ref. The wood on this bass is quite stunning both front/back and neck, and a nice maple neck and front, all solid wood, no laminate here. and no dings, scratches or marks that i can see even on v close inspection. UK only please. photos are here [url="http://www.discoinessex.co.uk/blog/2011/10/07/overwater-bass-for-sale-.aspx?alt_id=13J1D-5A237-0C7&ts=1317997088434"]http://www.discoines...s=1317997088434[/url] [url="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SJgD9c587fM"]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SJgD9c587fM[/url] [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VWKx628I6Dc[/media] I love this bass but its not going to get that much use with the upcoming work i have and would sooner sell it to someone that will use it. From what i know it was part of a matched pair with a fretless and was in the region of £2200 each. The fingerbord is nicely figured, and i belive the back is a stunning walnut finish which is beutiful. bass /mid /treble/balance/vol and pull bright 9v active and v quite. please feel free to call me on 07757875566 for more info. please add £40 for courier. thanks Rich.

Chris2112 Posted October 7, 2011 Posted October 7, 2011 The girl has a great voice! Lovely bass too, though really, isn't every Overwater a one off? I'd love to own one some day. I really should go to the shop in Carlisle...

[/quote] haha yes of course, iv changed the title and dropped the price....todays market is a bit hard so im reflecting that on the price. £40 4 courier (or whatever it costs) preperd to drive half way depending from essex to meet
greyparrot Posted October 7, 2011 Author Posted October 7, 2011 both bass direct and the gallery have said this is worth 900 on px from the discription, unfortunatly i dont really want another bass or amp, maybe an ns eub. This us a stunning bass at a great price, also comes with a hard case in equaliy good nik. please feel free to call regarding any qs you may have.
greyparrot Posted October 8, 2011 Author Posted October 8, 2011 why dont you? hehe ur one for sale is very nice too
greyparrot Posted October 8, 2011 Author Posted October 8, 2011 (edited) iv tried to drop the price to one that reflects the market and to be honest if i drop it any more that would be giving it away, as it is we are in custom hand made OW (and hard case) for the price or near the price of Tanglewood OW, and there ia a massive difference betweenn the 2. This bass in a good market is worth about £1200, on px im offered £900. As u can see its a good price, but im offering it on other sites as well. Alot of OW have the dark wood, this is very blond sort of thing neutual all the way through and screems class, and any combination of sound is poss from slap to deep bass, as u can hear on the vids. thanks. 07757875566 Im positive this one is the 1st picture in the OW gallery here [url="http://overwaterbasses.com/gallery/perception-gallery/"]http://overwaterbass...eption-gallery/[/url] Edited October 8, 2011 by greyparrot

skej21 Posted October 8, 2011 Posted October 8, 2011 Ah man, I'd love this, but Newcastle to Essex is just too far!
greyparrot Posted October 8, 2011 Author Posted October 8, 2011 it can be couried no problems, done it before, and it has a good hard case.
Musicman20 Posted October 8, 2011 Posted October 8, 2011 Hi! Is the case an 'Overwater' case? Ive no idea if they make their own.
greyparrot Posted October 9, 2011 Author Posted October 9, 2011 no its just a decent hard and lined quality case, fits it perfect.
