Flanker Posted July 23, 2012 Share Posted July 23, 2012 (edited) I have two Five strings ,they are both beautiful but I had a stroke fifteen months ago and to say the least it has been very frustrating on the bass front !!! I would find a 4 string Precision easier I think. Nordy VP5 lightweight (Around 8.5 lbs) Alder body / Rosewood neck Nordy gig bag. Very good/ Excellent condition. Bought new from BassDirect around 18 months old.(hardly used ) Price: £1650.00 Consider 4string Precision trade (part or full) Prefer lightish weight / Maple neck Unfortunately cannot drive / Available Milton Keynes area near J14 / M1 [IMG]http://i22.photobucket.com/albums/b337/Bassleg/Party072.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://i22.photobucket.com/albums/b337/Bassleg/Party068.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://i22.photobucket.com/albums/b337/Bassleg/Party073.jpg[/IMG] Edited July 26, 2012 by Flanker Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To all, Flanker is a top bloke to deal with and keeps his instruments in good condition. He also picks good basses and whilst I havent played this one his black Celinder jazz was the best bass I have played. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flanker Posted July 25, 2012 Author Share Posted July 25, 2012 Thanks guys. The black one was nice but the red precision was my favourite Celinder, think Kiwi still has it! In spite of my minor disagreements with Chris they are still my favourite bass, anyone with a four string Celinder precision want to trade????

molan Posted July 25, 2012 Share Posted July 25, 2012 Nice to see you back buying & selling Steve Are you after a P with a 'classic' 1.75" nut or something smaller like a J based 1.5" or one of the hybrid 1.625" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flanker Posted July 25, 2012 Author Share Posted July 25, 2012 My wife reckons It's a sure sign i'm getting better! The nut size doesn't bother me really but I suppose the smaller the better. It's the right hand thats the problem. It's sloooowly coming right and my lovely physios are all quite upbeat. Everybody says the fingers are the last to return. I don't think it'll ever be back to two fingered Jamiroqai though!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
