bkman42 Posted May 3, 2009 Posted May 3, 2009 (edited) Up for grabs is a Lovely USA Gibson model Tobias Killer B 5 in stunning emerald green finish (Don't see many on the market with this finish!) Condition of the bass is excellent and has no major signs of wear (One small chip close to th electronics cavity). Bass has never been gigged just kept in it's case for the past few years. Please note this bass is from the early run of Tobias killer B Basses 90's which means it's rather good! Sad to see this go but i really need to start moving some basses on. Will sell for £650 comes with Hardcase. Shipping £25 Please note this is only for sale to the UK market. Please feel free to -mail me with any questions. Thanks Edited May 3, 2009 by bkman42
budget bassist Posted May 3, 2009 Posted May 3, 2009 That's stunning! Tobias' have the most gorgeous necks too, good luck with the sale, i wish i could afford her!
lemmywinks Posted May 3, 2009 Posted May 3, 2009 Excellent price too, someone's gonna get a bargain. I'm off to the pawnbrokers to see how much they'll give me for my nan!
bkman42 Posted May 3, 2009 Author Posted May 3, 2009 Yeah, Its a bargain! I paid well over £1000 for this little baby a few years back! Thse basses seem to go for a top dollar in the U.S. but here in the UK its a different matter. Hope it sells via basschat.co.uk would hate to put it on evilbay ;-0
bkman42 Posted May 4, 2009 Author Posted May 4, 2009 Hate to put this on ebay :-( last chance before i list on ebay tomorrow ;-) Really is one hell of a bass for the money
Kongo Posted May 4, 2009 Posted May 4, 2009 Ah no! I'd love it but I MUST keep this money for a new amp... Oh that IS a bargain...But I must resist...
