Never seen one of these, but it's beautiful!

Something about this is incredibly sexy. And I usually hate silver basses.

£575 and 0 bids? Amazing....

Good thing I have my impulse buying under control...

Still 0 bids

[CameronJ]

In the end there was only 1 bidder (madness) and he/she will soon be the proud owner of this.

It was me! I'm as amazed as you are!

I only just saw this thread - I stumbled on the bass on eBay completely by accident.

Thanks. I'm a bit of a tart when it comes to basses, so if it doesn't work for me, it may well end up back up for sale on here - keep an eye out!

Bargain, good score there.

Apologies for the long delay in responding! It's lovely - light but well balanced, really resonant, with a surprisingly pokey tone. The pickups don't have a huge output on their own, but coupled with the Bartolini preamp it has loads of tonal variety.

For the moment at least, it's a keeper. Sorry!

[CameronJ]

Glad to hear you have a keeper! Has she had any gigging action yet?

So far, just an impromptu pub gig in South East London with some mates the day after she arrived. Played through the pub's own back line, which had been 'extensively pre-enjoyed' shall we say, so the amp sounded a bit grim! I'm doing a few festivals over the summer, so it'll probably get a more serious outing then.
