gary mac Posted May 31, 2014 Author Share Posted May 31, 2014 A weekend bump. Surprised this hasn't gone yet. Dealers are selling similar, although not in such good condition and without the original case, for £200-£300 more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kinder Posted June 5, 2014 Share Posted June 5, 2014 I made an involuntary sex noise when the pictures came up. Absolutely beautiful and my year of birth bass. Would love it but sadly can't afford it. Good luck with the sale. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
