JoeS Posted May 27, 2017 Share Posted May 27, 2017 (edited) Bought this around six months ago as I fancied something with a carbon fibre neck, and let's face it, who hasn't wanted to own a bass this sparkly at least once in their lives? It's a lovely, lovely instrument but no matter how hard I've tried to gel with it the neck profile is just a bit too thin for my tastes. As a result, it's been sat in a case for most of the time I've owned it which is frankly criminal for a bass which looks *this* good (especially under stage lighting). Everything is stock apart from the bridge and tuners, have been "upgraded" from chrome to black - I say "upgraded" as the actual parts are identical to the standard Gotoh ones, they just look a lot better in black! For those of you unfamiliar with G Basses, here are the specs and a couple of photos courtesy of Bass Direct (note - I'm not 100% sure, but I'm fairly certain this is the actual bass I'm selling): [url="http://www.bassdirect.co.uk/bass_guitar_specialists/Peavey_Q_Bass.html"]http://www.bassdirec...vey_Q_Bass.html[/url] [color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif]The bass comes with a Peavey hard case, which is in good condition cosmetically BUT for some reason doesn't seem to be aligned properly and so it doesn't completely shut (whether the bass is in it or not). I've been meaning to look into this since I bought it, but as I've never used the case to either store or transport the bass it's never bothered me too much.[/font][/color] [color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif]Would prefer a straight sale but I am notoriously easily persuaded when it comes to trades, so feel free to make me an offer (no amps though, please!). [/font][/color][b]Collection only from Crawley, West Sussex[/b][color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif] please, or I can deliver/meet within a reasonable distance.[/font][/color] [color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif]Link to photos here, the finish is a real pain in the arse to capture so I'll have to experiment with lighting and see if I can do any better: [url="https://drive.google.com/folderview?id=0B0Ua_tjuaF3HZGFoNzNvN2RvdVk"]https://drive.google...ZGFoNzNvN2RvdVk[/url][/font][/color] [color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif]Any questions, just give me a shout.[/font][/color] Edited August 12, 2017 by JoeS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FHB Posted July 12, 2017 Share Posted July 12, 2017 Hmm, just wondering outside of sale - with the bass, the tilt screw - could it be replaced? I've seen too many with it lost. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoeS Posted July 12, 2017 Author Share Posted July 12, 2017 (edited) Good question, I'm not too sure to be honest. No such worries here though, it's very much intact! https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B0Ua_tjuaF3Hb3k5VzNjVTZYRGc/view?usp=sharing Edited July 23, 2017 by JoeS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
