TheGreek Posted June 13, 2017 Share Posted June 13, 2017 Looks nice - not sure how much work replacing the truss rod nut would be. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Godin-5-string-bass-/292142402760?hash=item44050b4cc8:g:gIwAAOSwZ4dZNvkl Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
binky_bass Posted June 13, 2017 Share Posted June 13, 2017 Might have a go at this one! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mykesbass Posted June 13, 2017 Share Posted June 13, 2017 Even at that final price somebody got a nice deal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndyTravis Posted June 13, 2017 Share Posted June 13, 2017 Nearly bid. Nearly. Sort of annoying that I didn't really. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
binky_bass Posted June 14, 2017 Share Posted June 14, 2017 Went up to £150, didn't fancy risking anymore. Still, I'm sure the new owner won't be disappointed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Happy Jack Posted June 14, 2017 Share Posted June 14, 2017 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.

dannybuoy Posted June 14, 2017 Share Posted June 14, 2017 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. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
