Are you bidding to pretend you can play bass?

[brensabre79]

never heard of this make, looks nice enough if you like that sort of thing but I especially liked the signoff:

I AM ONLY SELLING MY GUITARS AS I HAD MAJOR ABDOMINAL SURGERY IN BATH on 17TH JANUARY AND CAN NO LONGER PLAY / STAND FOR PROLONGED PERIODS FOLLOWING A SERIOUS ACCIDENT IN FINLAND PRE XMAS.


Very informative......

What a bizzare remark to make on an auction?

That aside, nice looking Peavey Cirrus copy.

I initially thought it was rudeness, then I reread it and realised that statement makes no sense at all.

What happens if you win the auction? Does he want a Demo of Bass Playing Skills before he hands it over? What a Tool... The Seller, Not the Buyer

[brensabre79]

Yeah I'm not sure about that one, I was going to bid just so I could just pretend to play bass but he appears to have outsmarted me!

"PICKUP ONLY - NO COURIER - TOO MANY DAMAGED GUITARS - NOT EVEN INSURED HELPS"

So am I bidding for just the pickup or the whole bass (assuming that I pass the audition)?

[Happy Jack]

Well you can't bid at all if you're a courier ...

Scandalous, report him for being courier-ist!

80 quid last time i looked....Now you pesky bidders best not be pretending y'all?

[Jayben]

I personally find it really offensive to mime artists, people make good money to pretend they can play an instrument!

[ras52]

To be fair, I expect someone previously 'won' it, came around and noodled on it then said they didn't want it.

Other than that, I'm grateful for the extra info. If the pre-Xmas accident had been in Denmark I'd be all over this.

I know the Tories are cutting the NHS, but why did he have " major abdominal surgery" in the bath?

[tom1946]

I read it too quickly, thought he'd had surgery in the bath

[paulwillson]

i wonder if this guy can play bass whilst on speed aswell as list things on ebay whilst on speed.

I too love reading all the comments that follow things like this. Keep it up, well on something else as the auction has ended,
