Andreas Zeller 4/4 Bass - NOW TRADED

Recommended Posts

[size=4]Here’s my Andreas Zeller full size (4/4’s) double bass up for sale – I thought I’d be playing more on a full double bass when I bought it, but it just isn’t getting used - I’m mainly playing bass guitar with occasional outings on my WAV4 electric upright.
The bass is in great condition – and as it is a few years old and has been gigged it does have a few marks here and there – “nibbles” round the edges mostly – but there is nothing serious (no splits or cracks). There is one mark on the upper bout (the side nearer to you as you play it) where someone had put a big “dink” into it about the size of a 10p piece– it has been filled, stained & polished – I’ve put a close up of this in the pictures.

It has a good set of Thomastik Infeld Spirocore strings on it with a new low E just fitted. It has a great sound – it’s a powerful instrument and it has a good mellow, woody tone (to my ears, anyway).

The bass dates from 2000/2001 and was originally from Booths Music shop in Bolton, bought for over £1100.
I’ve looked back at other Zeller bases on here, and the asking price seems to be £750 to £850, depending on “accessories”, and those prices are going back to 2007/2009, so I’m looking for [color=#ff0000]Price Drop to [/color]£725 – I’m looking to sell as I could do with realising some of the cash I have tied up in equipment, but may trade for a Precision bass with maple fretboard - give me a shout.[/size]

[size=4]In with this price I’m including a soft zip up case for the bass which cost £50, a decent French style bow and rosin, plus a soft fabric cover for the bow.

I also have a [url="http://www.djmmusic.com/ItemMatrix.asp?ic=BC003%2D4%2D4&MatrixType=2"]Westbury Padded Bass Bag with Wheels which[/url] cost about £150, and I will be selling this separately once I’ve sold the bass – I will be looking for £80 for this, unless you want to buy this with the bass in which case I would offer the combined price of £775 (that’s £30 off).

There is a link below to this model of case for information.

I’m in Morecambe – you’re welcome to fix up to come & see & try it, or, if you are seriously interested I do go over to Manchester every two or three weeks & could possibly bring the bass with me....... anyway get in touch & we’ll see what can be arranged.[/size]

Hi Stompbox,

I currently have a thread in the basses for sale section in which I'm hoping to either raise some cash or trade a couple of my bassesin order to fund a double bass.

Here. [url="http://basschat.co.uk/topic/188453-for-sale-lakland-skyline-gl-tribute-ibanez-musician/"]http://basschat.co.uk/topic/188453-for-sale-lakland-skyline-gl-tribute-ibanez-musician/[/url]

Please pm if any of these tickle your fancy!
