1963 Framus Star bass- on hold £300 Norfolk

[E sharp]

1963 Framus Star bass - ala Wyman

 

I've had this for over 30 years , and it's just sat around . 

 

The Framus name badge on the headstock top , has got half of the gold lettering missing . Also missing is part of a knob . 

 

I'm really not sure how playable this is , in a real world scenario , as the strings are just too floppy . 

 

May be good for someone who is a collector of these old European basses , and can source the odd bit to replace ; or someone who wants to have something nice to hang on a man cave wall . 

 

This is quite fragile , and I have absolutely no way of getting this packed up - let alone trust one of our Courier friends . 

 

So pick up only really - or I can travel to meet halfway up to a point . 

 

If it's pick up , I can do Bank Transfer or PayPal . But if it's meeting up , it'll have to be cash , as I don't roll will a smartphone . 

 

Thanks for looking .

I love this one, are the electrics all sound and working? neck nice and straight with no warps?

All work apart from volume knob is pretty much stuck solid. 
 

It’s currently on hold for someone who’s coming down in a few weeks.

Well look at this, my first model of bass I ever owned....and in NZ too.

I need to contact the guy who I’ve got this on hold for. He supposed to be gigging near me this month. 
 

So could yet be ‘off’ hold
