loudandclear Posted November 4, 2008 Posted November 4, 2008 (edited) I bought this of ebay just because it looks so nice - it plays pretty well too. I am having to continue a purge of basses so a few more to go! I paid £290 for this about three months ago. It comes with a reasonable gig bag - It has not left my house and is in 10/10 condition - collection/viewing welcome - price £150 delivered. Any queries please pm [attachment=15575:DSCF0028.JPG] [attachment=15574:DSCF0024.JPG] [attachment=15577:DSCF0032.JPG] [attachment=15576:DSCF0029.JPG] Edited November 12, 2008 by loudandclear

loudandclear Posted November 4, 2008 Author Posted November 4, 2008 Looks like a really nice bass but I need to sell really - too many basses!! thanks anyway and good luck!
Shockwave Posted November 4, 2008 Posted November 4, 2008 This is gorgeous, Why did i just spend what money i had on a 28 inch monitor let me know if we can do a deal with anything i have
loudandclear Posted November 4, 2008 Author Posted November 4, 2008 Thanks shockwave - yes it is mighty fine looking - trying for a straight sale right now but will keep things in mind cheers
MoonBassAlpha Posted November 4, 2008 Posted November 4, 2008 what's the fretwork like? most reviews I've read suggest that lets these down, but the whole thing isreally eyecatching! Cheers Jules

Cheers Jules[/quote] Hi - I just had another check after your post and the fretwork is fine - the frest are even no sharp edges - the whole bass has a good feel to it - its not a £1500 bass - but at £200 I reckon its really good value and as you say the look is great and it plays well ! again anyone is welcome to try! thanks Edited November 5, 2008 by loudandclear
budget bassist Posted November 5, 2008 Posted November 5, 2008 That actually looks rather nice, especially since it doesn't have one of those hideous over the top inlays. Good luck selling
littleal Posted November 5, 2008 Posted November 5, 2008 Wow!! That looks like a £2k bass rather than £200 How do they make these for the money ???
loudandclear Posted November 6, 2008 Author Posted November 6, 2008 thanks for the comments chaps - yes it is a looker !
noirpunk Posted November 6, 2008 Posted November 6, 2008 Interesting bass - that top horn reminds me of an Ibanez Iceman. Good luck with the sale, it looks a lot more expensive than it is
MB1 Posted November 6, 2008 Posted November 6, 2008 MB1. Quite like the look of this its Very Carl Thompson/Les Claypool ish! The only thing i cant understand is the jaunty angle of the pickups! Cheap as Chips though! and i have read some good reviews on these! .........Mancunian BUMP!
loudandclear Posted November 6, 2008 Author Posted November 6, 2008 Thanks again gents - many admirers - still for sale though !
loudandclear Posted November 7, 2008 Author Posted November 7, 2008 Bump - lots of interest nothing concrete - price reduced to £180 delivered
loudandclear Posted November 8, 2008 Author Posted November 8, 2008 Right one last go before it goes to the bay - Bump price reduced !

kevbass Posted November 9, 2008 Posted November 9, 2008 Blimey, Im really tempted by this, Its a toss up between this and a P bass Ive seen, I cant afford both, what do I do?! Even though Im a P Bass man these days could this revive my Les Claypool phase?
