Geddys nose Posted November 18, 2009 Posted November 18, 2009 (edited) Bought this from Beneath it All earlier this year and looking to buy some TC cabs b4 Christmas so this has to go. Without a doubt this is the nicest bass I've ever played the neck is soooo Perfect it makes any style effortless. Its a early Series 2 with the full graphite thru neck and without the Body graphic on the lower part and is No 28 which is '85 according to Patrice's website. The Bass is a easy 9/10 and is in superb condition for its age. Looking for £900 cash (Saw a Early White Passion sell for £1000 on the 'Bay last month) or I might be interested in a trade for a couple of light weight Cabs ie Bergs/Tecamps,Ags or even a Orange ad200 amp. Cash of course either way up to the value. I'm going to Manchester this Sunday so if anyone going to Bassday I will be around with the bass if required. Cheers Si Pics- (Special thanks to Mick for letting me use his photo's Top Guy) [attachment=36703:vigier_p...bass_023.jpg] [attachment=36704:vigier_p...bass_021.jpg] [attachment=36705:vigier_p...bass_017.jpg] [attachment=36706:vigier_p...bass_019.jpg] [attachment=36708:vigier_p...bass_024.jpg] And my not very good efforts- Edited November 20, 2009 by Geddys nose

robocorpse Posted November 19, 2009 Posted November 19, 2009 Yummy!, now if it was black and I had 900 quid...
Geddys nose Posted November 19, 2009 Author Posted November 19, 2009 Thanks for the nice comments everyone, like I said Stunning Bass and offers something different from the Current 10/90's necks soundwise (Still got my Vigier Excess so I'm not leaving the Club totally, and I'm still looking for a Roger Glover Excess). I'll get some Pics of the Rear of the Neck up tonight. Cheers Si
Schnozzalee Posted November 19, 2009 Posted November 19, 2009 Thats lovely Si, Really like the finish and probably my favourite bass tone comes with the Vigiers.
Beneath It All Posted November 19, 2009 Posted November 19, 2009 Ouch! very tempted to reclaim it - my fave bass of all time but I sort of feel half-undressed without the low B; tried the new Vigier 5 at bass direct recently and it sounds like everything else out there.....if anyone has the early 5 string and fancies a change, let me know pronto as I'm disappearing next week for a while.....
far0n Posted November 19, 2009 Posted November 19, 2009 Mmm, nice Vigier Passion. Here's my Series 3 being given a good beating ! [url="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d3cdn7O6tXE"]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d3cdn7O6tXE[/url]
