mol Posted September 23, 2017 Share Posted September 23, 2017 (edited) SOLD - PLEASE REMOVE Price Drop - Now £1200 Hi all. Due to health reasons I have to sell my GB Spitfire 5 string. It’s the one that was reviewed in Bass Magazine and was rated 97%. The faded gold hardware was changed for black a couple of years ago Serviced by Bernie in Brighton 2.5 years ago. Played only a few times live this year. There is a bit of noise on a couple of the pots - needs a bit of switch cleaner. Locking jack, 1 year old Hiscox case. It sounds great, is easy to play and is made to the high standards that we expect from Bernie. Previous owner's ad puts it better than I can - [i]My 2005 GB Spitifre that has been reviewed by Dave Marks in Bass Guitar Magazine in 2005! Plus it holds probably the highest marks in BGM at 97%! The specs are: 1 piece swamp ash body Spalted Canadian Maple top, Maple neck Bound Snakewood(!!) fingerboard Usual GB pickups and electronics Gold Schaller hardware Hiscox Hardcase + straplocks The writing on the back of the headstock is ontop of the laquer and rubs off. It won't be there if you don't want it to be! This was reviewed in BGM May 2005. Still got the highest score in BGM ever!! I'll include a copy of the magazine as well.. The original pics can be found here: [url="http://s1124.beta.photobucket.com/user/BigJimbasschat/library/GB%20Spitfire"]http://s1124.beta.ph...y/GB%20Spitfire[/url] (link still works) [/i] This is a great bass, which I am reluctantly having to sell.
