Biggsy Posted October 3, 2009 Posted October 3, 2009 It's certainly had a sweaty hand or two over the last few years!
Leftbass Posted October 3, 2009 Posted October 3, 2009 Nice looking bass but you need to work on your sales pitch Biggsy mate ( sweaty hands! Euch!)

leftybassman392 Posted October 3, 2009 Posted October 3, 2009 [quote name='metaltime' post='612876' date='Sep 30 2009, 12:04 PM']Anyone else seen the SEI on ebay. Very tasty but not cheap at £1800[/quote] It's been up for at least 2 months to my certain knowledge. It was up at £2000 originally. Every time it fails to sell he keeps relisting it almost immediately. I sent him an email through ebay very early on, advising him that he might struggle to sell it at that price. He got VERY shirty with me, so I wished him luck and have hardly looked at it since. IMHO someone persisting for this length of time in the face of a complete lack of interest is either not living in the real world or else doesn't really want to sell it but wants to look like he does (if you know what I mean.. )
rapscallion Posted October 3, 2009 Posted October 3, 2009 Would anyone happen to have a left handed Jazz Bass neck available

LeftyJ Posted October 5, 2009 Posted October 5, 2009 Damn you and your StingRays, just bought an SR5 and still have three ATK's so I really don't need one, but otherwise I'd be seriously tempted by that black one (I feel a StingRay should have a maple board, and I've come to love black on black)

I'll be in the Netherlands in November, playing a show supporting Nick Oliveri in Maastricht, so could always hand it over then! Edited October 5, 2009 by Le Chat Noir

[/quote] This is true. Plenty of bidding watchers though, so the omission hasn't been to the detrement of the auction thankfully. How much are you asking for yours out of interest?

How much are you asking for yours out of interest?[/quote] To be honest I'm keeping an eye on yours to see what it goes for, as I'm unsure of the current market value for used lefties! Seen them go for anything up to 1000 quid on Ebay over the years, but also often considerably less. I'm generally holding out for some kind of swap involving something Jazzy.
LeftyJ Posted October 9, 2009 Posted October 9, 2009 I've been amazed by prices some EBMM's go for on the British secondhand market. I saw some Sterlings sell for 700 pounds, which is about 800 euros, whereas they generally sell for about 1100-1200 euros on the Dutch market. I myself got a killer deal on a Stingray 5 from the UK recently. It may well be worthwhile to advertise your Stingray on leftybass.com too, I sold my G&L SB-2 there in no-time (within two hours!).
LeftyJ Posted October 14, 2009 Posted October 14, 2009 Biggsy's Stingray sold for just a mere 620 GBP It's just amazing what these go for in the UK lately.
rasher80 Posted October 14, 2009 Posted October 14, 2009 Christ! Shame i bought that Precision otherwise i'd have been all over that! GAS-ing for quite a few different things at the mo!

I'll give you GAS: A JB75-US/LH in Norway as we speak, natural with maple board and upgraded with an Audere preamp [url="http://www.leftybassist.com/viewtopic.php?f=12&t=1163"]http://www.leftybassist.com/viewtopic.php?f=12&t=1163[/url] Not cheap, but definitely nice - although the bottom piece of ash doesn't really match the rest of the body.
