Looks nice - not sure how much work replacing the truss rod nut would be.

Might have a go at this one!

Even at that final price somebody got a nice deal.

Nearly bid. Nearly.

Sort of annoying that I didn't really.

Went up to £150, didn't fancy risking anymore. Still, I'm sure the new owner won't be disappointed.

That where I was...buyer still got a bargain.

Dunno. They're lovely basses, but I think his advert is remarkably straight about this - if you're comfortable playing that bass [u][b]without [/b][/u]adjusting the trussrod then it's probably a bargain.

If you need to 'fix' the trussrod, for whatever reason, then you're tap-dancing through a minefield. By the time you've separated the fingerboard from the neck, found the cause of the problem, fixed it professionally, and put everything back together, chances are you'd have been better off just buying a fully functional example.

Good price provided you could fix the issue cheaply. I have the newer 4-string model with the additional magnetic bridge pickup and it's a lovely thing.
