sbrag Posted June 20, 2015 Posted June 20, 2015 ive been tempted by this too. the white refinish put me off. balck and tatty looks better to me but shergolds are very tasty and id love one. Quote
TheGreek Posted June 25, 2015 Author Posted June 25, 2015 Just checked...with just over 11 hours to go there still only one bid.. Quote
GregBass Posted June 25, 2015 Posted June 25, 2015 Soooo tempting. I always wanted one of these when they first came out, but being an impoverished apprentice I couldn't afford one. Quote

[/quote] Doesn't really mean anything. I would imagine that the single bid up there is a placeholder to ensure the seller doesn't get cold feet and remove the listing before it ends. All the serious bidding will happen in the last few seconds. Quote
TheGreek Posted June 25, 2015 Author Posted June 25, 2015 I think that may be Jack's bid....bet he's hoping that there's no last minute action and that he'd actually prefer this to the Westone Rail he's posted in the "wanted" section.. Quote
Happy Jack Posted June 25, 2015 Posted June 25, 2015 Ah now, that would be an interesting choice to have to make ... Quote
discreet Posted June 25, 2015 Posted June 25, 2015 (edited) [quote name='alyctes' timestamp='1435269136' post='2807231'] Gone for £365... [/quote] So Happy Jack must be the new owner! Congratulations, Jack! When do you want me to come and pick it up..? Edited June 25, 2015 by discreet Quote
Happy Jack Posted June 26, 2015 Posted June 26, 2015 We have a [size=5][i][b]winner[/b][/i][/size]!!! Hoping to pick it up this afternoon, just awaiting confirmation. Watch this space ... Quote
CamdenRob Posted June 26, 2015 Posted June 26, 2015 Horray! Good deal that, great looking bass. I was reading on the Shergold site yesterday about their modulator guitars and basses with interchangable electronics modules pretty far out stuff. Quote

Paul S Posted June 26, 2015 Posted June 26, 2015 Excellent. Welcome to the club! Be interested to hear how much this one weighs and other vital stats. Quote

Silvia Bluejay Posted June 26, 2015 Posted June 26, 2015 Tea is Jack's task, and as for the cake, this is our favourite Quote
discreet Posted June 26, 2015 Posted June 26, 2015 I like Black Forest Gateau from the 1970s, but not having a time machine I'm unlikely to ever taste it again! Quote

Sounds very 'Grandpa' to me..! I'll settle for Digestives, I've simple tastes. Edited June 26, 2015 by Dad3353 Quote
CamdenRob Posted June 26, 2015 Posted June 26, 2015 A piece of black forrest gateau from the 70s is unlikely to have worn as well as these Shergolds Quote

Clive Dunn is dead and last time I saw Jack, he was definitely breathing and moving about. Not much it's true, but I'm fairly certain he was alive. Quote
