Guest Lee Van Cleef Posted June 1, 2009 Share Posted June 1, 2009 If I wasn't completely new to the bass I'd certainly be interested. For the price is a very nice looking setup. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kongo Posted June 1, 2009 Share Posted June 1, 2009 Pretty nifty....But why does it have to be Sunburst? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/quote] AS you can see I also own a USA Fender Jazz and status s2 classic so this 5 string has a lot to live up to. It really is very well set up for a guitar of this low price Having a real wood ( Alder) body sets it apart from some of the budget basses available. The action is very low and the chunky solid metal bridge gives it that bit more sustain. I wouldn't be parting with it but I simply can't get to grips with wide necked basses. I have since bought a cheap Peavey milestone bass and strung it B E A D. this solves my problem hence this beauty is up for sale. It really is BRAND NEW, Never gigged,only used to practise at my home. Come on guys what do you want for £140??????

I'm not really interested in a trade for your Peavey bass. I already have a Peavey milestone bass and don't really want another. Unless something that interests me comes up for trade I would rather hold out for a cash deal. I have got my eye on a really nice Bass collection which is for sale on this forum £180 so if I can sell mine I might make an offer on that one. Thanks for the offer though and good luck.
