Happy Jack Posted June 22, 2008 Share Posted June 22, 2008 (edited) [color="#FF0000"][b]All the basses below can be posted, but I prefer collection wherever possible. That allows 'try before you buy' and the chance for a cuppa or a bevvy while we're at it. I'm in Chiswick (W4 4BN), about two minutes from the roundabout. I accept cash, but you can always talk to me about cowrie shells and coloured beads. If you think it will get you anywhere, that is. Each bass comes in a good-quality padded gig-bag, will have a strap, and is guaranteed ready-to-play with no issues / problems / worries. If you collect, you get to choose which gig-bag and which strap. If you'd prefer a hard case, I have a couple of decent ones I can let go. Hard cases are NOT included in any prices below. You may notice that I'm not the world's best photographer. If you need more/better photos of any of these, let me know and I'll get my son to take them - at 12 he's way better than I'll ever be! [color="#0000FF"]EDIT Latest score just in ... Technology 1 : 0 Happy Jack My photo-links have clearly failed the intelligence test, so I've inserted a few random photos to whet your appetite. If you'd like a proper set of photos for any of these basses, PM me and I'll clog your in-box for several hours.[/color] OK - here we go:[/b][/color] [b][i]Ibanez 2369BW (1974) P-bass[/i][/b] [attachment=9907:Ibanez_2...Front__2.JPG] [b][size=4]*** S O L D ***[/size][/b] **************************************************************************************************** **** [b][i]SGC Nanyo Bass Collection SB330 (1995) Fretless[/i][/b] [attachment=9906:BC_SB330_Front__2.JPG] [url="http://www1.snapfish.co.uk/slideshow/AlbumID=235911785/PictureID=5206805459/a=125375551_125375551/t_=125375551"]http://www1.snapfish.co.uk/slideshow/Album...51/t_=125375551[/url] More piccies at [url="http://www1.snapfish.co.uk/thumbnailshare/AlbumID=235911785/a=125375551_125375551/t_=125375551"]http://www1.snapfish.co.uk/thumbnailshare/...51/t_=125375551[/url] Lovely example of one of the rarest Bass Collections. Very high quality, light weight, great 'mwah' factor, rich honey colour. This is being kept off my playing rack by a Ricky 4001 Fretless. The previous owner fitted a brass "slap plate" at the top of the fretboard; not my sort of thing, but actually looks pretty good.

According to them, this bass is jolly good for a bit of slap & tickle, but sometimes it goes "pop". I think that's what they said, anyway. Like all the SGC Nanyo BC's, this is a very high quality, light weight bass, not to be confused with the many inferior copies that have appeared over the last 10 years.

If you're not familiar with this bass, it's essentially a 'stick' into which you can slot lightweight extension bars to create the outline of a bass. It has an on-board pre-amp with a headphone socket, so you can play it anywhere without disturbing the neighbours. There's also a standard jack socket so you can play through an amp.

This sort of thing either floats your boat ... or it doesn't.
