Mornats Posted February 22, 2014 Share Posted February 22, 2014 (edited) I'm selling my Rockbass Corvette. I bought it off here a year or so ago and whilst it's a nice growly bass that sounds good and is easy to play (despite the chunky neck) there's no gap for it in my current bass needs. Also I'm saving up for a MarkBass combo and all my surplus basses have to go. Otherwise I'd keep it as a nice giggable backup bass. Here are the details:[list] [*]Rockbass Corvette [*]£150 plus postage [*]Based in Bristol [/list] This is an active bass wtih a 2 band EQ. Made in China but really well put together, can't fault it really. It's got a single Warwick bridge, not the two-piece bridge on the later, more expensive Rockbasses. Pickups are MECs. What can I say, this is your classic Rockbass Corvette, a great bass for the money. Great condition too, I can't find a fault on the body. Weight 8lbs 12oz Strung with GHS Bass Boomers 45-105. Here is the thread for when it was my NBD: [url="http://basschat.co.uk/topic/183017-nbd-warwick-rockbass-corvette"]http://basschat.co.u...ckbass-corvette[/url] And this how it sounds through Ampeg SVX (BA15 tube growly setting). [url="https://soundcloud.com/whisky-river/badly-parked-cars"]https://soundcloud.c...dly-parked-cars[/url] It's 8lbs 12oz. I paid £150 for this off Basschat which as a bargain, and still is. It's possibly worth more but £150 from a Basschatter = £150 to a Basschatter. Collection is preferred but I do have a box to post this in and anyone local is more than welcome to pop round to try it out. I'm based in Southville, Bristol. Tyrekickers are welcome too if this will help you make your mind up about other basses. I'm happy to talk bass with anyone and I make a nice cup of tea or coffee and I'm one minute walk from North Street for a beer too. Right, into some pics before this starts getting into a lonely hearts ad!

Mornats Posted February 23, 2014 Author Share Posted February 23, 2014 I'm primarily raising cash to fund my MarkBass gas (but it's worth asking as there may be something that catches my eye). I don't like those EB3s, they just never appealed to me and I'm a 4-stringer only, sorry! Lol, you've quoted my saying about drummers!

Shame about the no trade though. Would a gothic t-bird with blue side leds tempt you? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
