FinnDave Posted April 8, 2015 Posted April 8, 2015 (edited) Reluctantly need to clear some space so although I bought this only a few months ago, as it is the only bass I rarely play, it has to go. Bought from a member here, played 2 or 3 times in my brief ownership. Lovely sounding bass, from basic thump through Precision to unexpectedly growly, just by turning the impedance selector switch. Includes a new, hard to find Epiphone fitted hard case. Bass is in excellent condition. The back of the neck has been de-glossed by a previous owner. Anyone interested in the bass is welcome to come and try it here, near Witney in Oxfordshire. I have the substantial box the case came in, so the bass can be couriered at buyer's cost. Looking for £450 firm including the case.

krispn Posted April 15, 2015 Posted April 15, 2015 These basses sound great and only due to the fact the body looks huge on me I'd have kept mine. Great P like tone from these and with flats they thump with the best of 'em!
FinnDave Posted April 16, 2015 Author Posted April 16, 2015 It's also got a surprisingly aggressive tone with the impedance switch on 250. It really is a very good bass, but I need to sell something to make space and pay for recent repairs to my bike, and I can't bear the thought of selling one of my Fenders.
cachao Posted April 30, 2015 Posted April 30, 2015 Good luck with the sale, Dave. I know you take good care of your gear. Hope to see you at the jam soon. Mark
FinnDave Posted April 30, 2015 Author Posted April 30, 2015 Thanks Mark. I clean forgot about last Sunday until Al told me he'd been there. Apparently he tried calling me several times but the signal here is often very poor. I'll try to make the next one.
FinnDave Posted May 9, 2015 Author Posted May 9, 2015 Still available, the bass hasn't left its case since I posted the advert, all I want to play these days is my Jazz Bass.
FinnDave Posted May 16, 2015 Author Posted May 16, 2015 Lovely bass and brand new fitted hard case, just sitting unloved in its case, waiting for a new home.
FinnDave Posted May 23, 2015 Author Posted May 23, 2015 Regular weekend bump, and reminder to self to get some decent pictures taken of this excellent but superfluous bass!
tredders Posted May 26, 2015 Posted May 26, 2015 That's my old bass, and it's a beauty. Surprisingly versatile bass - definitely not the one trick pony that a lot of semi basses are. Decent price with the fitted case, too...
Dad3353 Posted May 26, 2015 Posted May 26, 2015 This had better get sold pretty darned soon; it's a firm 'bucket list' instrument for me, and my sands are running out. My better half would protest, though, so I'll just shut my eyes, plug fingers in ears and chant 'La la la la...' until it goes. Please be quick... On the other hand, I've a 'bonus' expected in October, so if the unthinkable happens and it's still here...
FinnDave Posted May 26, 2015 Author Posted May 26, 2015 It's a long time til October...why wait, you know it makes sense

FinnDave Posted May 26, 2015 Author Posted May 26, 2015 You'll have to take your fingers out of your ears eventually...
Dad3353 Posted May 26, 2015 Posted May 26, 2015 What's that you said..? Sorry, I can't hear you; I've my fingers in my ears. La la la la...
FinnDave Posted May 26, 2015 Author Posted May 26, 2015 I'm just going to sit here and out-patience you
Dad3353 Posted May 26, 2015 Posted May 26, 2015 La la la la... 'Snot all that long, October. La la la la ...
FinnDave Posted May 26, 2015 Author Posted May 26, 2015 May....June...July...Orrrgust, September...all looong months. If it hangs around that long, I'll have to re-advertise it as vintage, and we all know what that does to the price!
