TheGreek Posted February 28, 2013 Posted February 28, 2013 Added to my watch list - obviously it will sell for much, much more.. Quote
BigJim Posted February 28, 2013 Author Posted February 28, 2013 Aye! I thought it may have been my old black rumour at first!! Quote
TheGreek Posted February 28, 2013 Posted February 28, 2013 I was going to PM you to see if it was..is it not then?? Quote
BigJim Posted February 28, 2013 Author Posted February 28, 2013 Nope, mine had GB pickups and had what I call the Crown at the end of the fingerboard like my Spitfire and not the cutaway like this has. Also, there's 14 years difference! Quote

[/quote] Are you going for this as i am interested and live in Manchester. Pointless having a bidding war between 2 BC'ers. Quote
ash Posted March 4, 2013 Posted March 4, 2013 It was on mine the moment I saw it! Very tempted. Quote

ash Posted March 4, 2013 Posted March 4, 2013 Am going to have a shot as I can pick it up from Manchester - I need a 5 string Quote
BassBunny Posted March 4, 2013 Posted March 4, 2013 I'll leave it with you then Ash, unless you want your Bass Collection back Quote
ash Posted March 4, 2013 Posted March 4, 2013 Ha ha - may take you up on that if I miss out! Cheers! Quote
funkgod Posted March 4, 2013 Posted March 4, 2013 (edited) BUGGER... i have been watching this for about 4 days and i thought i was going to get another one everyone had missed,,,,, double bugger, AAAHHh well as bass bunny says no point in bidding each other up, al back off good luck ash. ( hope its as good as the jazz i got from you,,, ooohh you should of kept that one ) Edited March 4, 2013 by funkgod Quote
ash Posted March 4, 2013 Posted March 4, 2013 Cheers guys - can't remember the Jazz which was that? Quote
TheGreek Posted March 4, 2013 Posted March 4, 2013 Eventually went for £605 - I was the high bidder with £501 till about 30 seconds to go - I would have felt like I'd robbed him though. Still £605 is an unbelievable price for this... Quote
ash Posted March 4, 2013 Posted March 4, 2013 I put a bigger bid on to be honest but I've always fancied a GB bass. Very chuffed although I'll have to get shifting my Squier JV now! Quote
TheGreek Posted March 4, 2013 Posted March 4, 2013 [quote name='ash' timestamp='1362424001' post='1999567'] Gotcha! [/quote] Were you the winning bidder then?? Quote
funkgod Posted March 4, 2013 Posted March 4, 2013 [quote name='ash' timestamp='1362423811' post='1999560'] Ah lovely that one! [/quote] It is nice, i ripped out the naff pickups ( remember i thought the back one had been changed, they both had) changed the electrics someone had put a bridge in the neck space and made the hole slightly bigger. but its clear as a bell i now use it to do all my tracks. congrats, enjoy Quote
ash Posted March 4, 2013 Posted March 4, 2013 [quote name='TheGreek' timestamp='1362424192' post='1999579'] Were you the winning bidder then?? [/quote] Yes it was me - gotta shed some gear now! Quote
TheGreek Posted March 4, 2013 Posted March 4, 2013 Congratulations - if it's anything like the 4 banger that I got from Gunsfreddy you'll be a very happy man.. Quote
ash Posted March 4, 2013 Posted March 4, 2013 Thanks if I don't get on with it I'm sure I can trade it on here for something - always fancied one of these though! Quote
