karlfer Posted September 16, 2012 Share Posted September 16, 2012 (edited) Anybody who I've dealt with knows as a fan of The Ox, I've been after a FenderBird for a long time. Still need a bit more funding Lakland Skyline, Bob Glaub, black, black, maple, excellent condition, with Ritter gigbag, plus spare red tortie plate and original mint green (aged white effect). £500 collected from Wigan, £530 couriered after funds clear. Very light bass compared to average Fender. Sorry, NO PAINPAL, UK buyers only. Anybody local welcome to try, please read my feedback at the bottom of the page. Any questions welcome.

karlfer Posted September 17, 2012 Author Share Posted September 17, 2012 (edited) PM replied, sorry, no trades, fundraiser for FenderBird. Issues. Lakland Bob Glaub, 1 scratch on back, some light swirling on back (in the right light). The fretboard marker stickers (Sheehan style) peel off leaving no residue. Some photos now up. Cheers, Karl Karl.[attachment=118627:DSCF0079.JPG][attachment=118628:DSCF0080.JPG][attachment=118631:DSCF0085.JPG][attachment=118632:DSCF0086.JPG][attachment=118735:DSCF0089.JPG] [attachment=118862:DSCF0087.JPG][attachment=118863:DSCF0090.JPG] Edited September 20, 2012 by karlfer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

timmchale2009 Posted September 21, 2012 Share Posted September 21, 2012 (edited) I would be so all over this if I hadn't bought my Stingray, ADB200 and cab in the last 3 months... Alas. I am approximately 350 notes light for it! Someone should snap this up! Edited September 21, 2012 by timmchale2009 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Graham Posted September 21, 2012 Share Posted September 21, 2012 If I wasn't moving house I'd have probably succumbed to temptation and bought this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Forgot to mention I will deliver myself between about Stoke and Leeds (approx 50 miles radius of Wigan), at no charge. Sorry, but East Sussex is a tad too far . Thanks for the bumps guys. It needs to go, so probably higher price on FEEBay next week. Cheers, Karl. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Graham Posted September 22, 2012 Share Posted September 22, 2012 In the unlikely event it's still here after the house move is done and we've got over the crippling cost of that I might have another think about this, gah temptation is a terrible thing. That all said, I can't see it hanging around that long. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
karlfer Posted September 23, 2012 Author Share Posted September 23, 2012 Reduced to £500 collected, £530 couriered (after funds clear). No joy at this price it will go on FEEBay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
White Cloud Posted September 23, 2012 Share Posted September 23, 2012 My god, times must be hard if this cracking Glaub isnt shifting at this price. Great price, great bass, great seller, good luck! BUMP! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

karlfer Posted September 27, 2012 Author Share Posted September 27, 2012 (edited) Last bump before FEEBAY (at £600 BIN), because the FenderBird has landed As previously stated, happy to swap for a Genz Benz Shuttle 9 or Streamliner 9, as long as it's immaculate.

oldslapper Posted September 28, 2012 Share Posted September 28, 2012 If someone would buy my status 6 string I'd have this. Very much miss the Lakland Duck Dunn I had. They make superb necks. Oh we'll, at this price it'll be gone. I'd wish you best of luck with the sale, but you won't need it Karl. John Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
karlfer Posted September 29, 2012 Author Share Posted September 29, 2012 (edited) Thanks fellas, Further PM's replied, still here. Would prefer cash sale peeps although I have 2 good offers on the table for GB 9's Not fair to ask them to wait much longer. Ta.

RhysP Posted October 1, 2012 Share Posted October 1, 2012 What's the neck profile like on this - is it nice & chunky like a precision or is it more like a jazz? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
karlfer Posted October 1, 2012 Author Share Posted October 1, 2012 It's Precision width at 1.75 inches, however it is "shallower" than most P's I've ever used. Some specs on one below in Peter Cooks. Mine being an older model will have Lindy Fralin pup. http://www.petercooksguitars.co.uk/catalog/lakland-skyline-glaub-bass-black-p-465.html?manufacturers_id=41 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
karlfer Posted October 3, 2012 Author Share Posted October 3, 2012 My computer died on Monday night. Expensive.

peety Posted October 5, 2012 Share Posted October 5, 2012 This used to be mine and at that price is a serious bargain only sold this as i had 2, in my opinion as good a P bass as you will find, on top of that Karl is a top guy to deal with. If i had the money i would have it back however money is needed elsewhere mate. Anyway have a free bump on me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
karlfer Posted October 5, 2012 Author Share Posted October 5, 2012 Cheers Steve. Love this bass, but I love so many basses . Got a chance a the Cataldo FenderBird, needed to raise some cash so a couple needed to go. It's on hold now anyway. Cheers, Karl. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
