TheGreek Posted February 2, 2018 Posted February 2, 2018 Somebody is looking for one of these in the "Wanted" section - I wonder if they'll pay this... https://www.gumtree.com/p/guitar-instrument/extremely-rare-japanese-el-maya-custom-bass-1973-/1284588677 Quote
Bassassin Posted February 2, 2018 Posted February 2, 2018 Really hate it when a description is a pack of blatant made-up lies. Stupidly cool & rare bass, though - wonder how much actual money he wants for it. Or if he'd do a straight swap for an old Sunn Mustang Strat I've got hanging about. Quote
fleabag Posted February 3, 2018 Posted February 3, 2018 Posting with joke prices thinking he's a comedian would simply make me move on and find something else Quote
Happy Jack Posted February 3, 2018 Posted February 3, 2018 Great bed-spread, though. You've got to admire that duvet cover. Why do the polepieces for the P not match the J - is it a trick of the light? Quote
Bassassin Posted February 3, 2018 Posted February 3, 2018 2 minutes ago, Happy Jack said: Why do the polepieces for the P not match the J - is it a trick of the light? Plain slugs on the J & DiMarzio-type hex poles on the P - the hex poles might've corroded a bit. I have a Washburn SB-40 from the same era (early 80s) made by the same factory (Chushin Gakki) and with identical-looking pickups. I *think* the comedy pricing is because he wants to do a straight swap for a guitar - hence my £15 car boot Sunn Mustang offer... Quote
Count Bassy Posted February 4, 2018 Posted February 4, 2018 I think it looks like quite a nicely made bass, though not enough strings and too shiny for me. Quote
