What we don't know is if theslot filler is a harder or softer material than the neck maple. Quote
bigmuff69 Posted March 8, 2018 Posted March 8, 2018 Well I took a chance and bought it!!,£400 picking it up tonight,hopefully it’s not too bad, 4 Quote
Grangur Posted March 8, 2018 Posted March 8, 2018 Hey! Good luck. At £400 you can even pay a luthier. Quote
MrTea Posted March 8, 2018 Posted March 8, 2018 Damn - saw this and considered a £400 offer but thought it would be too low! Well played! Quote
Musashimonkey Posted March 8, 2018 Posted March 8, 2018 (edited) How did it go? Hope you like the bass. Definitely got a good price on it. Edited March 8, 2018 by Musashimonkey Quote
MrTea Posted March 10, 2018 Posted March 10, 2018 @bigmuff69 did you get this? I messaged the guy who said it was still available but someone going today to take a look. Interested to know if you saw it but decided against it. Cheers. Quote
