Might have a twisted neck but might be worth a look for someone up North and only £500 Bin.

The body shape, lack of binding and dot markers suggest to me it's a 4003S. Very nice! I'd love to know how bent that neck is.....

Wish it was just a bit nearer, I'd go check it out.

Very small pic, taken from an odd angle, though. Hmmmmmmmmm.

I had a 4003 with a twisted neck (previous owner thought it was a good idea to tighten one of the rods up full and leave the other ) fixed it quite easy into a great player with the Hipshot Ric bridge and adjustable saddles.

Wow, is it just me or is that incredibly cheap? even if it does have a twisted neck

[dangerboy]

It all depends what 'twisted neck' means. This bass could need so much work that it ends up being very expensive. And I think that's shown by the fact this wasn't snapped up in an hour.

I mailed him for more pics but he has'nt got back to me yet.

Don't hold out any hope - I did the same just after I posted last night and haven't heard anything.

[Bassassin]

It's "no longer available for sale".

Like I said - Hmmm.

Sounds like another one of those dodgy Aberdeen types...
