Bassassin Posted December 8, 2017 Share Posted December 8, 2017 Ah, it's one of those olde-worlde neck-through "old style" basses, not an up-to-the minute Precision or anything! Might need a jack socket, as well as tuning... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
totorbass Posted December 8, 2017 Share Posted December 8, 2017 Very nice. Pictures are not overselling it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chriswareham Posted December 10, 2017 Share Posted December 10, 2017 Literally round the corner from me (and I'm using "literally" as it's meant to be used - I can walk there in under five minutes). I don't need another Westone Thunder though, but if anyone wants me to check it out for them then I'm happy to. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tommorichards Posted December 11, 2017 Share Posted December 11, 2017 I saw that. He originally had it up for £100, but i believe someone informed it of its value. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
itsmedunc Posted December 11, 2017 Share Posted December 11, 2017 Someone's stolen his knobs. Supposed to be brass. Wish he would sell me the trussrod cover. Been looking for one for mine for ages. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What changed? I'd have said it's value was a lot closer to £100 then £350. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bassassin Posted December 11, 2017 Share Posted December 11, 2017 In good order I wouldn't be surprised to see this go for £350 - it's a high-end Matsumoku build and there's not many around. This is a bit of a mess though, probably worth a punt at £150 or so & fingers crossed the electronics aren't fried. Those brass knobs are like rocking horse poo.

tauzero Posted December 12, 2017 Share Posted December 12, 2017 If it's not in tune, that's a deal breaker for me. I'm not that technically minded. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tommorichards Posted December 13, 2017 Share Posted December 13, 2017 I think he may have searched for the guitar on ebay after listing it. Seen similar prices to the one its at now, and adjusted it. Maybe someone contacted him about it. If its a neck through, and all the electronics work, he'll probably get around £2-300 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
