I think you and he are then not too far apart? We aren’t geographically close but emotionally we are 😂😂😗… anyway. If you can get it to me I can arrange to get to Manchester with my mates end November or sort courier. Whatever is best. 😃 Quote
gobasserk Posted October 27, 2021 Posted October 27, 2021 I am selling one of my BB1000MA's and my BB300. As Brexit might possibly make deals less interesting for you guys I wanted to let you know never the less. Quote

Well in that case, he doesn't necessarily need to get by Friday - Plan B is I've got a daughter up at uni up there and I'm sure we can coordinate something. So a couple of options for Andy. But he may, of course, do the sensible thing and pass on this one... Quote

The bb1600 sounded ace last night and something arriving by end of the week which was a bit unforeseen 🤦🏻♂️😂 2 Quote

Doctor J Posted October 27, 2021 Posted October 27, 2021 Time for Rebrenter, lads, we love you and we forgive you. Let's get back to buying and selling basses frivolously and recklessly as one people without having to give a cut to The Man! 2 Quote

AndyTravis Posted October 28, 2021 Posted October 28, 2021 1 minute ago, briansbrew said: Would this be worth buying Andy at the right price 🤨 No. To return it to stock would basically be impossible and you’d spend about £400 putting it right for it to ultimately be worth about £600 if that. If you’re after one, look at one which isn’t hacked up. If it was about £150/£200 it’d be worth the investment I suppose. 1 Quote

Yes I agree it would be expensive, it would need a pick-guard to cover up the lousy routing and then to try and find the stock pickups. A decent split P and a Yamaha bridge pickup would be good, if the price is right but he's looking £450 best offer to me. I do like that maple fretboard and the colour is nice, I do like a challenge ... Quote
