Withdrawn for now £1450 Poole Dorset

I Steinberger£999i am in a strange situation at the moment , where I'm no longer playing and holding onto nostalgia . 

After moving into a smaller flat , I guess I have to be ruthless and ask myself " do I really need all of these basses ?" How many hands have you got ?" The basses I am keeping are the jack Daniels , the Washburn status , the fretless vester which is a copy of a Warwick and an actual Warwick which I bought here from a great basschatter in August last year.  

Anyway , I have here the Steinberger XM3 not so common as the XM2 which is a rarity in itself 

A few bits of wear and tear obviously for a 30+ year vintage instrument . It comes with original gig bag which has seen bettter days tbh , plus a brand new gig bag purchased from amazon a couple of months ago. Also slighly tattered envelope and paraphernalia . 

One thing to note : It eats batteries and should be looked at by a tech . Socket or wiring issue ??

comes with additional brand new tiger gig bag , purchased all the way from the amazon.

The other bass 

Custom fretless 4 string made by Mybass of this parish. 

2 piece mahogany main body wood that was off a very old piece of furniture. American black walnut top . A five piece maple / Wenge neck. Macassar ebony fretboard

The control guard may be  Macassar , but peter is not 100% sure on this. Controls are vol/vol/ tone. Although headless , the tuning system uses standard string single ball ends . A bit like the Steinberger tuning system but it fits normal strings and not headless . There are Seymour Duncan humbuckers. There are 2 strap holders allowing 2 strap place options . Scale length is 34" with a double octave neck .

nut width is a tad over 1.5"/39.3mm.It has 3mm side dit's starting at low F . There are 6 wood chipped screws holding the neck solidly in place. The neck leans more towards a p bass size than a jazz bass. The body and neck have an oil finish (try oil on body).

This bass is very light in weight and has a great sound . The action is light to the touch .

although pictured with 3 strings , I have a new set available . Just haven't had time . They're dadarrio.

comes with excellent paddded Rockbag gig bag.

Trade wise? Maybe a green Yamaha attitude , which means that I've trimmed one bass.

or anything Moog , as I have just got a grandmother .

Now for the pictures.

I'm a bit confused by the pricing.  I can't see prices for either one.

Oops!  Tbh I wasn't 100% sure that I wanted to sell them separately .Having said that , I have just entered the prices now. 

Thanks

The@Mybass fretless looks like a lovely thing.

Glad to see you made the move to Dorset and are back posting in Basschat once again Ray.  I feared the worst when you disappeared. Have a free bump on me.

[RAY AGAINST THE MACHINE]

Wow! Thanks very much Pete 😺👍. Very good of you. Thanks for the kind words. 

Tbh, I'm not sure if I should keep that one . The market can be slow , so I may change my mind . 😼

[RAY AGAINST THE MACHINE]

Okay.. I'm gonna keep the brown one .  £999 for the black hamburger bass , which is great for metal and fast pick playing  😼

Mmm.. This ad is looking rather messy . I've just withdrawn my Taxi bass for sale . The brown one is staying . I may withdraw this in next couple of days and rethink my strategy .  

In the meantime ..Bump! 😼
