josh3184 Posted February 6, 2009 Author Posted February 6, 2009 haha damn right, glad us lefties finally have a little place of our own too!
Biggsy Posted February 9, 2009 Posted February 9, 2009 [quote name='coasterbass' post='399786' date='Feb 4 2009, 10:57 AM']Thats a bargain if it stays this side of £1500 (never been 100% a lover of Rick's myself though)[/quote] Good shout! £1520, ended over the weekend.. is the new owner anyone here by any chance?

My bids expired on the decent side of 1k, but I hope whomever won enjoys it. It does look a lovely bass.
josh3184 Posted February 11, 2009 Author Posted February 11, 2009 anyone confirmed for the harrogate bass bash then?
rubber_ritchie Posted February 13, 2009 Posted February 13, 2009 Great idea for a thread. It'd be great if with the list of basses on offer at the top you could put a link for each

We're such a specialist group that its good to see what basses are out there.

mxm Posted February 13, 2009 Posted February 13, 2009 (edited) Anyone interested in a '96 [b]MM Stingray 5 fretless [/b]? Very quick pic, please ignore glare, dust and smudges !!!! I traded this with Metaltime early last year, and to be brutally honest I really want a fretted 5 and prefer fretless 4's. It's a great bass, there are no issues, mint condition - it's just...just....it's not getting used ! £750 anyone ??!!! Edited February 14, 2009 by mxm
josh3184 Posted February 14, 2009 Author Posted February 14, 2009 updated! Shame fretless isn't my thing or I might be tempted Good luck with the sale!
josh3184 Posted February 14, 2009 Author Posted February 14, 2009 Also just to say I will definitely look at trades for the Sterling if anyone has anything!

josh3184 Posted February 17, 2009 Author Posted February 17, 2009 deal pending on the Stirling. I swear its so much easier selling it in Europe- I mean, I spent £700 plus postage on this and when I bought it that would be around 1000e so now I can sell it for 800e and still make a profit due to the £/euro change. Awesome. Try it guys, put your stuff up on leftybass.com, its superb for selling to the mainland!
Moody Posted February 18, 2009 Posted February 18, 2009 Hello, my name is Moody and I am left handed. I have nothing for sale or trade, I have, however, just bought this little beauty! [attachment=20474:008.JPG]

rubber_ritchie Posted February 18, 2009 Posted February 18, 2009 My Warwick Thumb 6 string left hand bass is for sale. [url="http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=41623"]http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=41623[/url] Thanks, Ritchie
josh3184 Posted February 18, 2009 Author Posted February 18, 2009 didn't that just sell on the warwick forums? I could swear its the same bass... Good luck with the sale though, think the original owner is on the forum so I'm sure he can attest to its awesomeness! I'll update the list soon. Also nice thunderbird man, looks gorgeous!

For the money, it's still a bargain! Edited February 19, 2009 by Biggsy
rubber_ritchie Posted February 19, 2009 Posted February 19, 2009 I believe it has had a couple of owners. I'm guessing they've done the same as I. Thought a six string would be fun, then got it and realised it's not for them. It really is a gorgeous bass, the nicest I've ever played/owned.

Mike Batt Posted February 19, 2009 Posted February 19, 2009 Hi. Yet another lefty here (we're slowly taking over the World!) Nothing to sell or trade but though you might be interested to see my Shuker Jazz.

josh3184 Posted February 19, 2009 Author Posted February 19, 2009 oooh that is a bit sexy... trade you it for a worthers original and some fluff?

Bought it from the great Mr Shuker about 18 months ago. My only observation (apart from the fact that it looks and plays brilliantly) is that I had a locking jack socket fitted which has now "died". I spoke to Jon yesterday and am taking it to him next week to have a "normal" input socket fitted. Would strongly recommend no-one uses locking sockets.
