I know how you feel!

[thebuckets]

think its decision time this weekend, might go for an ibby sr following a fretting hand injury in a bike crash.

NOW £500 postage inc.uk but if this discontinued tone beast doesn't go it might just stay as a closet classic!

cheers! plenty of bb love out there I see

[thebuckets]

did i mention uk postage included?

[thebuckets]

bump, about to pull the trigger on another so hit me up with close offers

[thebuckets]

Is this just a slow market or have I misjudged the price? Theyre too good to drop much

[timmchale2009]

No definitely right price, slow market though I'm afraid

[chrisgriff]

Absolutely fab basses....I tried many many fenders priced way above these and this came out on top. The neck is lovely and the pickups are stonking....I love mine! You won't find it cheaper than this. GLWTS!

Thanks guys. Thought I was in the right ballpark. Good to have it backed up independently though

[thebuckets]

If you fancy making an offer dont be shy. I have to make a decision on a bass I have on sale or return sharpish

[thebuckets]

sale or return now returned bump
but sill up for sale!

[Samfordia]

Am I going mad or did the price go up?

[thebuckets]

No it hasnt gone up. I had dropped it for 24hrs hoping to sell quick as I had a replacement on sale or return.
No one bit so ive had to return the other bass.

I am of course open to any serious offer

[andy67]

Hard to say re price as they are £596 new but they are so good! I'd love it but funds ain't available at this point unfortunately.

Good luck though

Ah I see, makes sense now.

GAK offered me one brand new for 565. So very tempted but I'd have to shift out a 424X.

At that price new these are a steal. By far the best p bass ive played in 20 odd years (imho) so im looking for a ton off new price for nearly new. Cant be far off can I?
