Elvis Valentine Posted February 15, 2013 Posted February 15, 2013 (edited) Howdy folks, Photos further down the thread... Trade Value around £350 i reckon. Just a feeler really but i got an Epiphone Zenith recently 2nd hand its in great condition with a few minor problems 1 - One of the concentric pots the top bit has broken off. I still have the pot but i think the soldering/fitting of a new pot is beyond my ken. 2- the Mono jack input is a bit stiff. 3 - a ding on the bottom that you can hardly see. Other than that its all good. Its still a totally functional bass in great condition, I had major love of the look of this baby for a while now but i had never played one. Kind of stupid to pony up the cash and buy a bass you have never played but i did it anyways. As it turns out its not really my cup of tea. I was thinking i'd like to swap for a Jack Cassady or another decent semi or a decent acoustic or maybe something i have not really thought of yet. I'd potentially be open to guitars too. Doesnt have to be in perfect condition. Open to offers. I'll post pictures if there is any interest. Edited February 17, 2013 by Elvis Valentine
neepheid Posted February 15, 2013 Posted February 15, 2013 (edited) I don't think you'll get the interest without the pics. More details needed: colour? fretted/fretless? etc. I don't have anything to swap (unless you want a Gibson SG-Z with a suitable cash adjustment). Also, mind the bumping frequency rules Edited February 15, 2013 by neepheid
Elvis Valentine Posted February 15, 2013 Author Posted February 15, 2013 Good point, Its the black one (black greay marble ish) and fretted. I dont have a camera so no pics until i can get a friend round with a phone. Oh no wait a freakin minute theres a cam on my galaxy tab. Photos to follow.

Elvis Valentine Posted February 15, 2013 Author Posted February 15, 2013 Oh ok. I reckon around £330 - 360. I cant imagine its a difficult fix. trying to post photos now.

Elvis Valentine Posted February 15, 2013 Author Posted February 15, 2013 (edited) Its a very nice bass and very nice to play in my opinion, and even with the pot being broken there are still a lot of great useable sounds but i'll never use it for anything other than playing at home. So therefor i think its best to let her go to someone who will take her out and show her a good time. And thanks for the help guys. Edited February 15, 2013 by Elvis Valentine
razze06 Posted February 15, 2013 Posted February 15, 2013 possibly interested, not sure what I could trade you for that though! Where about do you stay in Edinburgh?
Elvis Valentine Posted February 15, 2013 Author Posted February 15, 2013 Pretty central man, near the meadows.
The Dark Lord Posted February 15, 2013 Posted February 15, 2013 Did someone say black? Could be interested.

Elvis Valentine Posted February 18, 2013 Author Posted February 18, 2013 I'm thinking i might just take this in for a fix. No one want to trade for anything? bass/guitar/treasure map?
Elvis Valentine Posted February 18, 2013 Author Posted February 18, 2013 This isn't a Bump :-) . I have just had a look at the circuit board inside the geetar and its a remarkably easy fix. so if anyone has been interested but put off by the knackered pot. Consider it fixed. Or at least it will be in a day or two.
