ahpook Posted July 20, 2012 Share Posted July 20, 2012 (edited) it's time to move the black beast of rock on bought last year from dc2009, i've only had this out of the house a few times so it's pretty much as i bought it, except for moving the strap button to the back of the neck. it's a little worn, and i've taken photos of the worst dinks: the two on the body on the upper and lower bouts where the finish is flaking off the upper fretboard edge the two holes where the strap button(s) were) everything else works fine, [s]except there's a slight crackle to the pickup balance pot.[/s] [b]fixed[/b] you see the pics [url="http://www.flickr.com/photos/12528339@N05/sets/72157630665736766/"]here[/url] included in the sale is an epiphone fitted hardcase, which is like-new. i'm looking for [s]£250[/s] [s]£235[/s] £160 for the bass, case, and a extra long leather strap from bear straps (like [url="http://www.bearstraps.com/#%21__classic-2"]this'n[/url]) [b]i'm not shipping this item[/b] - you can collect it from me in tottenham, meet in london, or i am prepared to deliver the bass within reasonable train travel of london..

ahpook Posted July 23, 2012 Author Share Posted July 23, 2012 i'd also be interested in something jazz-shaped as a trade - i'm after a stunt bass for taking along to gigs as a stand-in for my beloved fender jazz. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paul S Posted July 27, 2012 Share Posted July 27, 2012 Have a 'these are really good basses for the money' type bump. I had one for a while and enjoyed playing it on my own away from the mirror. great active tones, skinny neck, real pose value. But I am too old and too fat and just looked (or at least felt) plain silly wearing it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BassBoss13 Posted July 27, 2012 Share Posted July 27, 2012 Sorry, my camera is not working but it is sunburst and is in perfect condition, just needs a change of strings. It is a really nice jazz bass, but I need something a little more suited to rock and metal, so this would be a perfect swap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
