Paul_C Posted October 19, 2007 Posted October 19, 2007 (edited) I've got an urge to play a bit of acoustic guitar when I'm not playing bass, so this, while very nice, has to go. Unless you have a nice acoustic to trade, I'll only be looking to sell this time (unless it's for something easy to sell, like a Ricky 4003) P. Edited November 8, 2007 by Paul_C
Paul_C Posted October 19, 2007 Author Posted October 19, 2007 the Yamaha SBV800MF is still for sale, along with the 1960s SB-2
Bassman7 Posted October 20, 2007 Posted October 20, 2007 Hand over your Kubicki!! (He thinks...will be collectors classic some day...)
NancyJohnson Posted October 20, 2007 Posted October 20, 2007 That's quite beautiful. Hey, I've got acoustics, but don't really want to shift any. That said, I have a Zenith Josh White I don't use anymore...Bakelite scratch plate. It needs the machines looking at and needs a new nut. It is after all over 50 years old. I saw one go on eBay for £850 about six months ago. Zenith used to make all these big archtop jazz guitars. Love the white Kubicki basses...John Taylor, Power Station, Live Aid...my jaw fell open. P

Is it the 18v version (i.e. 2 batteries) 2. Is it a later "Fender Custom Shop" or the ealier model with the oval logo on the back of the headstock. 3. Does it have an ebony fingerboard? 4. Is it White, or Pearl? 5. Does it have a Kubicki case Also would it be Ok to come try it? where abouts in the country do you live?? thanks for the info Andy

Ebony board. 4. White, faded to cream. 5. It has a case, but not a Kubicki one. It has a few dings, and there are three cracks in the finish - one between neck and neck pickup and two at the neck/body joint. I'm in Northampton - you're welcome to come and try it.

steve-soar Posted October 30, 2007 Posted October 30, 2007 Hi Paul, so in effect you let your Stealth go for £599? Nooooo. I feel your pain. I swapped a JD Mark King, opalescent white, bound neck and headstock for a Quadraverb and £450, I think I take the burke of the millenium award.
Dr.Dave Posted October 30, 2007 Posted October 30, 2007 1978 Ovation Legend bowl back - tobacco - tatty Ovation case. That the sort of guitar you're looking for as part of a deal? I've also an Ashdown mini 48 and a GK 400RB with a scratchy pot I'd let go

2pods Posted November 4, 2007 Posted November 4, 2007 Paul, I don't really need another bass, but as you said you're looking for a good acoustic, I may be selling my Lowden F25C with Lowden branded Hiscox liteflite case.
