Bleat Posted October 5, 2019 Share Posted October 5, 2019 (edited) Last of my current crop of basses to sell in my "Need-to-fund-another-Gretsch-Junior Jet- Bass-before-I-get-made-redundant-next-week" mega sale. This is a Vintage V90 Reissued series bass in beautiful Candy Apple Red Finish... it is in pretty much perfect condition. 42mm nut, 34" scale . Everything is good functionality wise. It is a passive plug and play bass and comes fitted with Wilkinson tuners and cool pickups. I don't think Vintage make this model now as far as I can tell. The controls are volume, tone, pickup blend and a unique roll control which allows you to go from humbucker to single coil sounds due to the design of the pickups... Just for honesty and accuracy ,It's a fairly lightweight basswood body with maple neck, so very easy to handle, and though it has a bit of neck dive when on the lap , it's fine on a decent strap thanks to the long top horn. It has a medium low action, and it may benefit from a bit of further setting up and better quality strings fitted. At this price and condition it would be maybe a great gift for a youngster, or perhaps someone is involved in a local music project looking for a nice but well priced bass.... or maybe you just fancy it yourself! As these were sold for around 250- 300 new, I would like the asking price which is pretty fair … and includes 48hr courier to UK MAINLAND. Cheers James. ** EDIT to advert: The original Wilkinson bridge was replaced , I will accept £110.00 inc postage to UK ** can't say fairer than that. Note : As usual the cheap crappy brown carpet is NOT included in this sale, I will not accept offers on it however desperate you are to have it.

hooky_lowdown Posted October 5, 2019 Share Posted October 5, 2019 What happened to the stock Wilkinson bridge with brass saddles? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bleat Posted October 5, 2019 Author Share Posted October 5, 2019 Thanks for reminding me about the bridge hooky ! I hate the brass saddle thing, I remember selling off the Wilkinson bridge ages ago and replaced with another one. I will amend the ad , might even knock a bit off the price.

Bleat Posted October 12, 2019 Author Share Posted October 12, 2019 (edited) £95.00 …. yes that's right … £95 inc delivery to UK only. I just need this out the way, so practically giving the bass away at this price! 🤘 Edited October 12, 2019 by Bleat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
