Burns-bass Posted October 15, 2020 Posted October 15, 2020 “I don’t play bass but I have this super rare Fender. “It doesn’t actually work at the moment and I don’t know why, and the truss rod is nearly maxed out, but I’m sure it’s fine. “I’ve seen that vintage shops are selling these for £1200 so that sounds fair despite them spending hundreds on setting up the bass, fitting new strings and, oh yeah, ensuring it all works...” Grab a bargain! https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Rare-Vintage-USA-1972-Fender-Musicmaster-Bass-Guitar-And-Case-Collection-Only/174478369320 Quote
Beedster Posted October 15, 2020 Posted October 15, 2020 I get it, but in the seller's defence........ There is a Best Offer button S/he might be genuinely selling something that they believe is valuable; a parent's old instrument that has developed the reputation of future heirloom over the years perhaps? It's collection so you get a chance to meet the seller and check out the bass It's nothing like as bad as some examples As you were 1 Quote

I must admit I have bought some junk from ebay in the past. The Lexicon effect processor "in perfect working order" where the selection knob didn't work and it had a loud hum was the best. Best stick to BC and be safe Quote
