Schnozzalee Posted October 14, 2012 Author Posted October 14, 2012 I sold my Sue Ryder & Bass Cube around last November - playing G&L guitars now but I shall return!! When I'm back in employment Quote
Billy Apple Posted October 17, 2012 Posted October 17, 2012 Still at £650 with no bids. Someone might get a bargin Quote

Someone might get a bargin [/quote] I reckon so! You get your signed certificate of authenticity from Leo's wife, Chair(wo)man Phyllis Fender. I've got a 90's G&L with 3 bolt neck and it's solid as a rock and very resonant - nothing like the late 70's fenders which have ill fitting neck pockets. Quote

ash Posted October 17, 2012 Posted October 17, 2012 What put me off bidding was the position of the bridge saddles, I had a bass where the saddles were like this and the bridge and neck were badly aligned, it was an expensive bass too but intonation was awful. Good price and I hope I'm wrong. Quote
Schnozzalee Posted October 17, 2012 Author Posted October 17, 2012 You'll have no problem with QC problems from G&L - I had no association with the seller btw just a big G&L fan . £650 is a bargain. Quote
Billy Apple Posted October 17, 2012 Posted October 17, 2012 I saw that bridge thing too, but TBH just thought it would need a proper set-up. Damn these bargains when my pockets are empty! I was hoping the winner was a member who could give us the skinny on that bridge! Quote
Schnozzalee Posted October 18, 2012 Author Posted October 18, 2012 Does need an intonation setup but it's pretty easy to do with the aid of a youtube video. Main things I would ask are the weight of it, and the measurements of the neck carve (if you've never tried one before - depends if you like chunky). Quote
