guybrush threepwood Posted September 22, 2014 Posted September 22, 2014 (edited) [font=arial,helvetica,sans-serif][size=4]Due to me taking a bit of a hiatus from bass playing to focus on other projects, I've decided to sell my Hofner. I bought it on here last year, from Owen (hope he doesn't mind me reusing his pictures). The original topic can be found [url="http://basschat.co.uk/topic/211980-hofner-5003-1963-sold/page__p__2137206__hl__hofner%20senator__fromsearch__1#entry2137206"]here[/url]. I'm asking for £400 which is what I paid for it. It's all original, and full of woody thump. There is also a hardcase, but to quote Owen's thread: "[i][color=#282828]This case has more mojo than Muddy Waters. This case looks like it stepped out to the corner shop in 1969 for a packet of Rothmans and came back 30 years later after touring the States and Japan. [/color][color=#282828]This cased is [/color][b]relic'd[/b][/i][color=#282828][i], OK.[/i]" As such, it's probably not a great idea to ship the bass, but I could always meet halfway, etc. I'm based around Derby / Nottingham, but often go across to East Anglia and have jaunts up to Leeds.[/color] [color=#282828]Anyway, I shall let the photos do the talking...

guybrush threepwood Posted September 25, 2014 Author Posted September 25, 2014 Will get some new photos online this weekend, but in the meantime, here's a little youtube video I did which demonstrates the tic-tac pick tone quite well: http://youtu.be/s1cEpFu6yQQ

guybrush threepwood Posted September 28, 2014 Author Posted September 28, 2014 Thanks, it pains me to sell it really, but I'm only playing bass when recording now, so I'm thinning my collection down to my fretless and my P bass.

uke Posted October 9, 2014 Posted October 9, 2014 Any love for a very early 76 Shergold Marathon! One of the first?
guybrush threepwood Posted October 10, 2014 Author Posted October 10, 2014 Sorry, but I'm not really looking for any more bass stuff as I'm having a little bit of a break. Electric pianos however...
