Okay guys, quick story of this bass. I ordered exact copy of this one but with figured walnut top and satin finish. While waiting for walnut one I received this one as I was a bit impatient and while I received this and played for a few hours I phoned mr. Roman Koc (founder) and asked if I can keep this one instead and he agreed. This is by far the best bass I've ever had, a dream one I've been waitin for it whole my life, and now when it is finally here I found myself not playing that much, mostly because sh*tty day job that takes so much of my time and life energy.

This is absolutely top of the range GMR instrument, finest quality and craftmanship. This exact bass was reviewed in iBass magazine ([url="http://gmrbasses.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/10/iBassreviewsite1.jpg"]http://gmrbasses.com...reviewsite1.jpg[/url]).

Specs:
Body - mahogany with flamed maple top
Neck - 3 pcs flamed maple, 2 pcs mahogany and matching headstock
fingerboard - rosewood
Shaller tuners
ETS bridge (16.5 mm spacing on the bridge, you can still adjust it to be a bit wider, but not that much)
Bartolini pickups
Noll 3 way preamp (originaly had John East but it was changed before they sent it to me, I played on this bass with John East and to be honest I prefer Noll, less knobs and sounds fantastic)
High gloss finish

Bass is absolutely mint. It is quite light, propably ligther than any four string bass I had and very well balanced, once you strap it on it won't move. It is quite nice sculpted on the back, you almost can't notice it on the pics but it fits great to the body and is very comfortable.

This bass is still on the gmr website marked as sold (on the top) [url="http://gmrbasses.com/in-stock/"]http://gmrbasses.com/in-stock/[/url] (these pics shows beauty of this bass far better than my crappy iphone)

It was originally priced at £2800 on their website.

[size=5][b]Due to my last night accident and broken arm I am forced to be off from work and on a silly sick pay, I can't afford living on a sickpay so unfortunately this need to go asap, and I'll let it go for £[s]1300[/s] [s]1200 ONO[/s] £900, and now I'll throw for free TC Electronic Nova Repeater, TC Electronic Flashback and Boss OC-3 in as new condition and boxed, thats over 300 pounds, this is just a stupid price for a virtually new instrument. [s]Buyer needs to collect as I won't be able to pack it with my broken arm, sorry[/s][/b][/size] my arm is better now so I am able to pack and post it.

As a trade I am open to offers in similar used value basses 4/5 strings fretted or fretless. Trades + cash my way are possible but I can't do it in opposite direction due to other non-music releated expenses.

Can shot few more pics if someone will be interested in specific parts of the bass, but mind that I have just my iphone to shot them and they won't be the best quality, just pop in and see how amazing it looks and feels. Bass can be viewed / picked up from Borehamwood area / north-west London.

Things has changed a littlebit, I think that the motorcycle can wait a bit more untill I save enough money and I should be more sensible. This is still trade pending but in case if it somehow fall through you can still offer me something.

Well, guy who offered me a trade is ignoring my messages so it seems that he changed his mind. Had some other offers but I am open for more.
Here is my first playing on this bass in this year, please excuse me my not-so-great playing skills.

No worries and yes, it is amazing bass indeed. Everyone that would like to pop in and just try it are more than welcome and free cup of very nice tea will be provided :) And well, when it comes to cash or trade, you can always try me with any offer even if you think that I would say 'no'. you never know as I'm still trying to get myself on some nice bike.
I'll try get my TC Electronic combo back home from my friends studio soon and record some proper sound demo. This was just for fun and mind that this is one of the budget recording interfaces I used in this video. It doesn't represent all beauty and richness of the sound that comes out from this bass.

It always isn't easy to sell something not that well known as few more big names in the high end bass range even if it is amazing quality, sounds incredible and feels great. Well, I am not in a rush and to be honest if my arm will heal and this bass will still be with me then I won't let it go.

I got it tuned E to C now but I'll propably get back to the low B. Not because there is something wrong, it sounds stunning too but when my hand will heal I want to focus more on the lower register playing and grooving.

Any Warwicks, Sandbergs or Laklands for trade?
