donslow Posted October 6, 2015 Posted October 6, 2015 (edited) Hey there, here for sale I have an OLP MM2 bass that I have recently refurbished This bass came to me in a considerably worse for wear condition (pictures of before and during can be given on request) I have spent the last few months refurbishing it as best I can and the end results are pretty impressive given the state it was in when I got it Things I have done Stripped and refinished the body (thanks to grangur from this forum) Painted the headstock to match body Cleaned the fretboard, frets and neck Rewired Added a scratch plate Set up The fingerboard was grimier than a grimy thing when I got this bass and I have cleaned it up as best I can short of a defret and complete radius sanding so if you are expecting as new, shop quality finish on the fingerboard this isn't for you as the grime has engrained into the wood fairly well, but it does look good from no more than a couple of feet away, Doesn't sound like a lot but there has been a lot of work gone into this bass (more pictures on request) Only selling as I am really a precision guy and trying to raise funds for a little project I have in mind Bass sounds and plays fantastically with all the versatility of a jazz bass yet the sound And looks of a music man, currently strung with DR Strings NEON Hi-Def Green Bass SuperStrings Medium Gauge strings (all I had spare when I finished the guitar) I have a box of spare parts that I have acquired during the refurb that I will include in the sale, which include 2 X scratchplates (1 red tortoiseshell and 1 white) A bigger bridge Wilkinson MM Style pickup (despite pictures showing said pickup, the original one is back in the guitar due to the wires on the wilkinson being JUST too short) Extra, slightly thicker (as per original OLP's so I'm led to believe) control plate Looking for the asking price ONO just to cover the costs I have outlaid on this project Please no trades unless you have either a jazz bass neck with blocks and binding (if you have a whole guitar that has such a neck I'd certainly listen to any offers) MAY also consider a small ampeg combo (BA 110 or similar) Collection is fine, can post with the U.K. fully insured (included in price) or deliver for a cost of diesel if your more than 20 miles from Chelmsford, Essex Any questions/queries/offers/more pictures get in touch and I'll do what I can asap [URL=http://s1383.photobucket.com/user/donslow/media/24A12D01-97D3-4F05-BDEC-1D2CC653A4EA_zpsugvwqlrm.jpg.html][IMG]http://i1383.photobucket.com/albums/ah302/donslow/24A12D01-97D3-4F05-BDEC-1D2CC653A4EA_zpsugvwqlrm.jpg[/IMG][/URL] [URL=http://s1383.photobucket.com/user/donslow/media/5ED5E577-159B-4CE7-8902-CDF4D31239B5_zpsqd7kvkqh.jpg.html][IMG]http://i1383.photobucket.com/albums/ah302/donslow/5ED5E577-159B-4CE7-8902-CDF4D31239B5_zpsqd7kvkqh.jpg[/IMG][/URL] [URL=http://s1383.photobucket.com/user/donslow/media/DBF3AC16-04CD-4DF4-904B-32E846C5C9B5_zpsnki8h5i1.jpg.html][IMG]http://i1383.photobucket.com/albums/ah302/donslow/DBF3AC16-04CD-4DF4-904B-32E846C5C9B5_zpsnki8h5i1.jpg[/IMG][/URL] [URL=http://s1383.photobucket.com/user/donslow/media/113EFA27-F246-41E3-9F67-B733CD9D9F4C_zpsozwhxzed.jpg.html][IMG]http://i1383.photobucket.com/albums/ah302/donslow/113EFA27-F246-41E3-9F67-B733CD9D9F4C_zpsozwhxzed.jpg[/IMG][/URL] [URL=http://s1383.photobucket.com/user/donslow/media/63764E61-99F8-4AA5-ACFE-113DAD590C7B_zpsjqdip0nf.jpg.html][IMG]http://i1383.photobucket.com/albums/ah302/donslow/63764E61-99F8-4AA5-ACFE-113DAD590C7B_zpsjqdip0nf.jpg[/IMG][/URL] Edited October 16, 2015 by donslow
