sockdeluxe_mikey Posted February 1, 2010 Share Posted February 1, 2010 Hi all, I am brand new to the forums here but I very much look forward to contributing in the future. I have a Marcus Miller jazz bass in moderately used but good condition which, apart from creme DiMarzio Model J's (I still have the originals also), a Gotoh 201B and Hipshot vintage machine heads is original - the only thing really you would probably want to change back due to personal preference are the pickups, as the Badass II that came with standard with it became a pain in the butt and so did the machine heads! The 'cowbell' pickup cover is not attached but again would also be included I will be putting up pictures soon, but just for a ballpark figure to start off, I was looking for something like £460 O.N.O? It is a very striking looking bass as will be shown when I get round to taking some snaps! Thanks for reading anybody possibly interested? Any questions also, then please don't hesitate to ask.

Yeah, I have had it since 2005 and it has been my No. 1 bass - it has lived with me, and as I've said to some of the PM'ers I just fancy a change and to move onto something else. I will post a proper detailed account of the bass with pictures soon (time has escaped me lately) but for now, here is a picture I could muster from my FB (sorry about my gormless expression), [url="http://img192.imageshack.us/img192/1932/19156265283546025506956.jpg"]http://img192.imageshack.us/img192/1932/19...46025506956.jpg[/url] I am right this second replying to PM's, Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sockdeluxe_mikey Posted February 1, 2010 Author Share Posted February 1, 2010 As of now I am not open to any more offers! Currently dealing with the PM's I've already received, but if all of them fall through then this will be back open to offers, Cheers! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sockdeluxe_mikey Posted February 1, 2010 Author Share Posted February 1, 2010 Right, here are some images for current PM'ers and possibly other interested parties!

sockdeluxe_mikey Posted February 13, 2010 Author Share Posted February 13, 2010 I am collating all of this in the feedback forum concerning Trevthebass - am very glad guys you actually managed to find my Marcus Miller on eBay, as he is unfortunately using my original selling information on the listing!
