A fair price rather than a great one , I think , and a tempting excuse to go to Hebden Bridge which is quite a bonny spot.

Somehow the matt finish of the p/g doesn't work with the gloss of the body. For me, anyway.

The white p/g would have to go back on - or maybe a tort.

I'd say the price is quite good once you've resold the pickup, pickguard, and case.

one of the less common, non-mustard ones like I used to have.

I'm not sure if you can actually but this colour model in this colour in the UK - I bought mine from an Ebay seller in Japan.

Fantastic basses - but i would say that

It is a good price considering the way exchange rates are just now but I got an absolute bargain at £330 for a brand new one delivered and customs charges included

Actually I think he made the right choice. Especially when you see it in the flesh. :brow:

I tried the white one on but nah black is definitely the way to go. It doesn't come over too well in pics though.
