Yeah I sold you that bass I do miss the feel. It was so tight, so snappy. I've never heard that "zing" after. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nice looking bass, but I find that a bit too steep. It will not sell at that price, there's bin loads of Celinder's either asking a crazy high price or buying Celinder for a fair price then trying to sell it for the double, the market price on a bass is what the basses are sold for and they go for very reasonable prices most of the Celinder*s that are actually sold. Do any one have any idea why this "gold mining" and secret buying prices is especially going on with Celinder basses ?

Treb Posted yesterday at 10:26 Share Posted yesterday at 10:26 That's basic supply and demand at work. Currently supply is nil and likely to stay that way. I do know why that is, but let's not get into the sordid details. There's a snot green (beauty is in the eye of the beholder, eh) Celinder J over at the Bass Gallery in Camden with a similar asking price. I do know that Marcus tribute bass is probably not gonna sell at that price but I'm only prepared to fork out half of that. Besides my Marcus-tone quest has come to an end (for now) with the arrival of my Xotic XJ-1T in ash & maple... 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've found they can be a bit of a gamble in terms of timbre. I sold my 78, it was boring. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
