Beautiful, rare, big-bottomed bass, made mid-90's, in storage for last 8 years, bought from original owner last year (serial 24xx), no fret wear, excellent condition apart from 2 small chips and a scratch - see pics. Complete with lightweight case, original warranty docs and 2 scratchplates (mint green and tortoiseshell) in case you fancy a change of look... Incredibly light at a mere 8.5 lbs. Controls are volume, pan, treble boost, bass boost, with preamp in/out on a push/pull on the bass pot. Impending house move forces sale. Bummer. £1850, no offers please, buyer collects from Woking, Surrey or pays fully insured carriage.

Good point - more details added!

Great looking bass! I just bid on that on eBay - I knew that I couldn't make the reserve but it felt good just to think I'd tried!

Best of luck with selling.

I think we all saw this on Ebay, lusted then took a reality check and realised we couldnt afford it. Things are tight round here on Basschat also....

How about everyone clubs together and does a sort of timeshare bass purchase? Could work! :)

I bid too, could only go to £1350 and was secretly praying that would meet the reserve ( i was deluding myself)

Anyway lovely looking bass, and good luck with the sale.

I think I was the one that bid it up to about £1,200 or so as well :)

I rather looked the look of that Telebass as well - did it sell on EBay?

The Tele/Precision beastie didn't sell, but I was secretly rather relieved... sorry, I'm keeping it now!

Just a note to all
i bought a Sadowsky bass from lowregisterhead
and he really is a great guy to deal with
and made sure the bass would survive a plane wreck
