Jamesemt Posted January 16, 2009 Share Posted January 16, 2009 (edited) Here for sale is an Elite 1. Looks about 6 months old - it really is very special. Completely original including brilliant condition case - all fine tuners are present and nothing is tarnished. I bought it as a bit of an investment, but never play it and need a new PC, so its for sale. TBH my new love is a late 70s P from Beedster!! The pictures from were I bought it last year are here: [url="http://www.classicandcoolguitars.co.uk/sold_basses/fender_elite.htm"]http://www.classicandcoolguitars.co.uk/sol...ender_elite.htm[/url] I defy anyone to pick fault with my example - easily one of the best in the UK. I will deliver within 100 miles of Hull subject to a deposit being paid by Paypal. Will also deliver a lot further afield, but my fuel must be paid for at 100 miles to £10 Price wise I paid £900 for it, and realise the market isn't quite as good. So any reasonable offer accepted (bearing in mind one on here in a lot worse condition went for £500). PM/phone/email me for a chat!

So I think you are aiming too high at £800.00 in the current market, even though it is a stunning Bass. Regards Will. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neil H Posted January 17, 2009 Share Posted January 17, 2009 As the seller of the £500 Elite II. I would add that this is an immaculate Elite I with Gold plated fittings, so is a rare piece and very hard to find in this condition complete with its original case. It's also a Maple neck, very tempted to have it myself to be honest!! Neil Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
