Marcus Posted September 4, 2008 Share Posted September 4, 2008 (edited) Guys....... you know I really P*SS myself off !!! This is a totally fantastic Bass..... but something else has come along and I can't fight the GAS !!! Got no play fund left so it's time to sell something It's a 2008 model Flea Spec (Basslines, OBP1, Badass) Modulus Hard Case Included Price is £1000 ovno Bass is Mint Not really looking for PX's but may consider a deal with a Black / Rosewood 3 Band Musicman Stingray + Cash Sorry photo's are not great...... I get really jealous when I see great pictures, I can never seem to take a good photo !!! The Bass isn't as Yellow as it looks in the first 3 photo's..... the 4th photo is a better guide. Call me on 07818 044187 with any questions ATB Mark Edited September 20, 2008 by Marcus Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thats something I just can't comprehend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OutToPlayJazz Posted September 4, 2008 Share Posted September 4, 2008 I find the best solution is not to drink. I barely ever touch the stuff these days as I work day & night (including weekends most of the time!) I've found I don't really miss it & I can afford much better basses Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The most I can ever have is one drink (if I have any) so you gradually get out of the habit anyway. The other thing is that after a long hard day teaching at school, followed by a long hard evening teaching private pupils or playing professionally, the last thing I have the energy for is going to the bloody pub!

warwickhunt Posted September 4, 2008 Share Posted September 4, 2008 So anyway... about this bass! I've heard it and even in Mark's grubby hands it managed to sound class Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jobiebass Posted September 5, 2008 Share Posted September 5, 2008 I know, I want this bass so bad. Wanted one since forever. Yeah the bongo money was spent beer/jackdaniels/wildturkey within about 3 weeks. I dare say I have a drinking problem. I really need to find money for this bass. I really dont wanna dip into my ISA.

Golchen Posted September 5, 2008 Share Posted September 5, 2008 I'd really love a flea bass, but it would have to be a 5 string for me and I guess that this is a 4. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr Cougar Posted September 5, 2008 Share Posted September 5, 2008 (edited) This has piqued my interest, looking forward to seeing the pics Edited September 5, 2008 by Mr Cougar Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes the Bass is a recent purchase but I have the opportunity to buy something i've always wanted and the cash will need to come from somewhere ! My Fender Jazz FMT could be net up on the Block !!

Noisyjon Posted September 5, 2008 Share Posted September 5, 2008 Oh...no...GAS...attack... No offence intended here, but is £1k a good price? I know nothing about their value you see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bass is £1750 in this spec, I think £1000 ono is a decent price to sell rather than a feeler ! If anyone looks back at my previous for sale threads, When I sell stuff I price it to sell and it usually does quickly.... However as always the market will decide....

Mr Cougar Posted September 5, 2008 Share Posted September 5, 2008 I agree, around £1k is a very fair price, if you were to look back through these sold in the past on here you'd see that they have consistently fetched around this sort of value.

However please buy it before I have to consider a serious overdraft! Good job my SR4 is red and maple Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marcus Posted September 6, 2008 Author Share Posted September 6, 2008 Withdrawn..... What am I thinking of ? This is one awesome Bass.... NOTHING plays as well as a Modulus !!! Sub mm action and clean !! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NAS Posted September 6, 2008 Share Posted September 6, 2008 Hi Marcus, Quite interested in this. What does it weigh? Bad back makes weight a bit critical! How would you describe the sounds available? Does the OBP1 provide enough tonal range for Jazz to Rock tones? Are you prepared to ship if costs paid? Many thanks, NS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
