Etienne Posted January 6, 2013 Share Posted January 6, 2013 (edited) Happy New Year everyone! I bought this from BC's ikay in early November- it's a fine instrument and great value for money, but after gigging it a couple of times, I've decided that it's not for me tone-wise. Since owning it, I've set it up with medium-high action, given the frets a polish, and tweaked a high fret that was buzzing slightly. The shortscale D'addario rounds fitted are still in great shape, and the bass positively thunders through my Walkabout/Berg rig... Here's a couple of pics: http:// http:// http:// The hard case is included of course! I paid £225 for this (including shipping)- I will accept [b]£210[/b] including UK shipping- no offers please! [b]EDIT: NOW SOLD[/b] Of course, I'd be happy to let this go for a bit less if it's collected from Liverpool city centre. Not currently interested in trades, but will have a think and update the thread if GAS strikes... PM me if interested, and thanks for looking!

Rayman Posted January 6, 2013 Share Posted January 6, 2013 That's a cool bass. Flats on that would sound magic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/quote] I agree with you there- it's got a real Hofner vibe to it, particularly with the neck pickup favoured slightly... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gary mac Posted January 6, 2013 Share Posted January 6, 2013 Nice bass, I sold it to Ikay last year. Bet it sounds so right with flats on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fozza Posted January 15, 2013 Share Posted January 15, 2013 I really like my Epi Rumblekat. It's a real head turner. I must get some flats for mine. Could I ask if you know what make the hard case is, please? I'd like to buy one for mine and the original Epi hardcases are as rare as the proverbial rocking horse excreta.

There's no sign of a manufacturer's label on the case to suggest its origin- mine isn't an exact fit for the instrument anyway, so am sure there are better options available out there! [quote name='markbass555' timestamp='1358253314' post='1935557'] is this still available? [/quote] Looks like I already have a buyer lined up, but I'll let you know if anything changes...

Fozza Posted January 16, 2013 Share Posted January 16, 2013 OK, thank you for replying anyway. I'll have to get my measuring tape out when I scrape enough pennies together and just go for the best fit. Best of luck with the sale. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Etienne Posted January 16, 2013 Author Share Posted January 16, 2013 Thanks Fozza! For anybody else following the sale, the bass has just been sold to cusken... thanks for all your interest! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
