stingrayPete1977 Posted March 3, 2013 Share Posted March 3, 2013 I have done it (I still blame Alistair as it was his thread that started it) Here is the link they sent me so as to raise a special item that could be ordered online, note the adjustable bridge and Spirocore strings, shipping was 95 euros, I am waiting to see what that has cost me all in with todays exchange rate [url="http://www.gedo-musik.de/shop/product.php?id_product=802"]http://www.gedo-musik.de/shop/product.php?id_product=802[/url] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zero9 Posted March 3, 2013 Share Posted March 3, 2013 Welcome to the 'Gedo club'. I've been using mine (which I got on here in a trade) for about a year now and it's been great. Enjoy PS mine's a blonde 4/4 with laminated back n sides and solid top (ebony board) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alexpea Posted March 4, 2013 Share Posted March 4, 2013 nice one Pete, are they going to set it up for you? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stingrayPete1977 Posted March 4, 2013 Author Share Posted March 4, 2013 (edited) Yes, I am having an adjustable bridge fitted and Spirocore weich strings the same as on my Stagg (cheaper than you buy them here for too), I am hoping that with the ebony board and carved top, adjustable bridge and proper strings it should be at least a decent beginner bass? and if not at least all the major things are there for someone to set it up better at a later date if it needs a board shoot and stuff Looking at my account earlier it has not cleared yet but it is looking like £871 after the currency conversion.

FLoydElgar Posted March 4, 2013 Share Posted March 4, 2013 £871 sounds like a great price starter bass... Congrats. Good luck. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stingrayPete1977 Posted March 5, 2013 Author Share Posted March 5, 2013 Thanks Floyd if it goes well I can always think about trading up at a later date , I have another pre EB to sell if I need to I am hoping that this could be good for a while and if looked after and setup well should be a nice bass for the next user, there are always people after a good starter bass, if this one was for sale on here now for about £600 I would of snapped it up Had confirmation of shipping today so it could get here before the weekend!
