Kicking a man when he's down

[Guest MoJo]

If anyone does buy it and then decides to move it on in the future, would they please give me first refusal. Thanks

It went for a measly £159 Is [b]steve_nottm[/b] a Basschatter by any chance?

Yeah, he's a member. pick up only stopped me bidding. but i suppose there was a way around it. i hope you get your hands on it one day.

Hi guys, yes it was me.

Hadn't seen this thread, but it's nice to see there's a bit of known history to this bass, and yes, I think a pretty good price too. I think the local pick up did it (and being in Nottm I can justify a quick trip out to Lincoln to pick up).

Mark, I see you really wanted this bass back, and I was feeling more and more guilty as I read it, but as you didn't bid in the end I don't feel too bad. I'll certainly let you have first refusal should I move it on and as you know what I paid for it, I wouldn't be looking to make a profit. Having said that, I'm hoping it'll be a keeper. You never know though.

Well, at least it's back in the family, can't complain at that as you'll know it'll get looked after

Well.....picked it up today.

and I have to say, VERY nice bass. Love the feel of it to play, sounds great, looks great, and for £160 absolutely stunning value! For a 24 year old instrument it's in great condition. Just the right amount of wear for one that's been used but not abused.

Came with a nicely "retro" (read battered) brown hard case too that I wasn't expecting, and the bloke selling seemed a nice genuine chap, so happy all round.

Might well try it at the gig on Saturday!

Bugger...I was hoping you'd hate it. Only joking. Glad you like it. When I acquired it, it had the battered hard case. Glad to see it's fallen into the hands of someone who'll appreciate it. Enjoy
