baldwinbass Posted February 21, 2016 Share Posted February 21, 2016 (edited) I understand Hayman basses were manufactured 1971 - 1973, and I swapped my Burns Flyte for this one in 1978 There are dents and scuffs as you would expect. It has stacked pots which sometimes sound a little scratchy, and I haven't tried to cure. Maple neck and staggered spit pick-up under the Perspex. The control plate has [i]two[/i] selector switches, and it needs a splitter/stereo cable to operate properly - I will include a cheap cable - it won't work with a 'mono' cable. Basschatters are welcome to try before you buy, cash on collection. I'm not into trading, shipping or couriers but might be persuaded to deliver for petrol money in Hants/W.Sussex area.

Quite rare too and it looks to be in very good condition for its age. GLWTS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alyctes Posted February 22, 2016 Share Posted February 22, 2016 If I understood the controls properly, it would be tempting... Good luck with the sale Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ash Posted February 22, 2016 Share Posted February 22, 2016 (edited) It's nice although the 6 screw neck plate and headstock logo are non standard, is there any history? I think a few of us would be interested if you would be prepared to courier it. 😉 Edited February 22, 2016 by ash Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
baldwinbass Posted February 22, 2016 Author Share Posted February 22, 2016 Hi, I've no idea about the neck plate and logo, I'm afraid, and I'd always assumed the bass was originally built that way. Also I've seen pics of other Haymans with perspex bridge covers etc but this one has never had them fitted, well at least there are no screw holes. I haven't sold over t'nternet before, so am concerned about entrusting this lovely instrument to the tender mercies of a courier. However........
