Status Energy 5. Now looking to sell. £500 ovno - *SOLD* £575 SWAFFHAM

Will obviously supply more pics if any interest.

Metal detector sorted so now looking to sell.

I've got enough bass guitars for someone who's not in a band so, as I've got into metal detecting and fancy an upgrade, there just might be one of you that has a pro level detector you're not using and fancy a well used, but nice  classic Energy 5 string that weighs just around the 8lbs mark. No case but could chuck in a cheap gigbag. 

The dot markers are real, not stick-ons.  Seen some fair usage but great for what I imagine is a 30 year old bass.  Super light for a five string, very comfey to wear and play. All pots work, has a new battery compartment. 

Welcome to come, play, twiddle and decide.  Quality biscuit provided with exceptional cup of accompanying coffee. Newly strung with I can't remember strings that were a new spare set I got with another bass. Think they're 40-125s

Never appears to go out of tune.

I recently bought a Tokai Strat off someone who wanted the money to buy a model train.

Yeah, why not? Other hobbies are good.

Especially when they don't involve singers, low-life pubs, egos, 1am breakdown and load-ups, unadvertised gigs, unreliable band members, overloud guitarists and drummers, drunks and Hey Joe😉

A very nice bass, but it isn't any good for metal    (detecting).

 

 

 

Sorry - it was inevitable someone would say it, so best get it over with!

I swapped a bass for three bottles of Merrydown once, it was the 70s and it may not have been my bass.

No problem. As you say, inevitable however, you've gone right up in my estimation as you had the decency to wait 13 hours😂

Now that's  how I like to remember the 70s. Proper rock n roll.👍

Surely this belongs as an epitaph or in the "famous quotes" thread.

[Richard R]

Seconded - you can post it as I c@cked up the last one I tried to quote.

These are nice basses. I had a Energy 6 bass and gigged with it for years. Sold it for a PC in 1996.

Sorry, just agreed a sale and packing it up now but for future reference if your after one, this was 18.5 centre to centre.

 

Thanks for the enquiry though.

Yup, they are nice. Had two 6ers but the dreaded arthritis put a stop to those.
