Taria Posted November 6, 2014 Share Posted November 6, 2014 (edited) For sale or for trade: Fender P Bass. Made in Japan. 1994/5 I am told by the previous owner. Lovely sounding bass. It hangs on my wall alot though and I don;t play it so I feel it should go to someone who will use it. Not long after I bought this I laid my hands on a US Peavey Cirrus and I now never want to pick anything else up! There are a couple of very minor bits on the side of the neck / fretboard which I have photographed. This was how I bought it, it did not worry me and I can safely say it does not affect the playability whatsoever. So happy to sell this but also open to trade possibilities. I am interested in acquiring a six string bass so if you have something along those lines then give me a shout. I am based in Putney, south west london so happy for anyone to come and try it out. I dont have a case for this so won't be sending it anywhere I am afraid. However, I will travel a bit to meet someone if they really want this. I work in central london so could always meet there during the week if that is easier. Anyway any questions ask - its a pretty straight forward beautiful japanese fender p bass - not much else to add really!

Taria Posted November 10, 2014 Author Share Posted November 10, 2014 Bump and price drop to 450 quid as I have seen someone else has posted something similar for this price so I don't want to have overpriced the bass. I have also put the bass on ebay as not much interest here and I would like the bass to sell before xmas ideally! Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sblueplanet Posted December 1, 2014 Share Posted December 1, 2014 Nice bass for the price. I put a gold anodised pickguard on mine and hey....! Instant '57 vintage vibe :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stingraybassman Posted December 2, 2014 Share Posted December 2, 2014 amazed this is still around!! Just over £400 is a flipping bargain. I had a similar era MIJ Jazz for a while, great guitars! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Taria Posted December 15, 2014 Author Share Posted December 15, 2014 Yeh - I guess that is perhaps what may be putting people off. I am just not sure how to go about packaging it as I have not got a case for it and I would hate the though of it being damaged from shipping. I am unexperienced, but if anyone have any tips - e.g. where I could find some suitable packaging etc then I would be willing to consider it, if someone wanted it. SpikeBass - I do like the look of that Gibson, and also the Hohner too....i will PM you! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lozz196 Posted December 15, 2014 Share Posted December 15, 2014 Working in Central London, take a trip along to Denmark St. There are usually old guitar boxes in the street waiting for collection. Fairly bulky, but get a couple and take them home. May be worth calling one of the shops first and asking them if they`d put a couple by for you - Wunjos would be my tip.

bootleg Posted December 15, 2014 Share Posted December 15, 2014 I have shipped 2 basses recently (abroad) after having never posted before. A bit of effort but worth it. Last time buyer paid for this http://www.gear4music.com/Guitar-and-Bass/Bass-Guitar-foam-Case-by-Gear4music/C87 and it comes in a cardboard box. Worked really well.

Rayman Posted December 15, 2014 Share Posted December 15, 2014 I use parcel2go, find a bunch of cardboard and a load of bubble wrap and poly chips. As long as you pack it well, preferably in a gig bag or something, and slacken the tension on the strings before packing, it's usually all good.
