Kev Posted August 18, 2008 Posted August 18, 2008 damn it for being 4 string! even so i'm still tempted by it, if this is still available once the loan is in next month you may here from me, but i daresay it will be sold by then
d-basser Posted August 18, 2008 Author Posted August 18, 2008 If it aint you have dibs, with the 35" scale it is perfect to string BEAD if you like 5ers
Brother Jones Posted August 22, 2008 Posted August 22, 2008 In essence, it looks like a Peavey Modulus copy. Which is a very good idea. bump
Tait Posted August 24, 2008 Posted August 24, 2008 how has this not sold?! i'd go for it if i had the money...
Matty Posted August 25, 2008 Posted August 25, 2008 would it be sacrilage to buy this to re-finish it?

This would look the business in a nice vintage off white colour
Marcus Posted August 25, 2008 Posted August 25, 2008 make a great back up to my Modulus Flea..... hmmmm.... thinks.... i'm pretty handy with a spray gun !!

d-basser Posted August 25, 2008 Author Posted August 25, 2008 (edited) if I wasnt going to sell it vintage white was my plan...spooky c'mon one of you buy it Matty: I notice you have a Grind 6, great basses but you really notice the fact this one is US made Edited August 25, 2008 by d-basser
Tait Posted August 25, 2008 Posted August 25, 2008 [quote name='kevbass' post='269363' date='Aug 25 2008, 11:20 AM']I never thought of that, with the cost of the bass as is and a refin at another 200 quid you could still have a sweet looking graph neck bass for 400, why has this not sold yet?!

d-basser Posted August 25, 2008 Author Posted August 25, 2008 well you can paint it sparkly blue...if you buy it lol
Matty Posted August 25, 2008 Posted August 25, 2008 I keep on getting drawn back to this one. You're not interested in a trade or anything are you?
Kev Posted August 25, 2008 Posted August 25, 2008 dude put your grind on ebay, itl sell for 200-250 in a few days i sold mine on here in about 48 hours iirc, i was lucky
Matty Posted August 25, 2008 Posted August 25, 2008 I did last week £220 i got for it. Just haven't had time to change my Sig. In fact, most of it is wrong....
Matty Posted August 25, 2008 Posted August 25, 2008 heh, sort of. Im basically torn between this and a pedaltrain pro
