kevin_lindsay Posted February 4, 2010 Posted February 4, 2010 (edited) Well, here is an opportunity to grab my immaculate Surf Green Nordy VJ5 for yourself. The body is lightweight Swamp Ash and the fingerboard is highly figured birds eye maple (so figured it looks like a bowl of rice krispies!!) Circumstances in Kev's world have changed, so this beauty is on offer to someone who'll provide a good home for it. The bass is passive using the traditional Vol, Vol, Tone layout and the single coil pickups are in the classic 60's position. The bass comes in a hard G&G case also. I guess we all know what kind of price these basses go for, so here's one in "as new" condition for £1,150 delivered in the UK!!! Go on, treat yourself!! Edited February 8, 2010 by kevin_lindsay
sshorepunk Posted February 4, 2010 Posted February 4, 2010 WOW, stunning bass, would go nice with my sea foam green jazz Don't think this will be around for long! Tony
Ou7shined Posted February 4, 2010 Posted February 4, 2010 Sweet. (that goes for the P bass too) I've clocked that last pic a in few different places on the net.
kevin_lindsay Posted February 4, 2010 Author Posted February 4, 2010 Well, Paul was first to the post and it looks like the bass will be on it's way to him very soon Thanks to everyone who got in touch with me so quickly!

Steve A Posted February 4, 2010 Posted February 4, 2010 That has to be one of the fastest forum sales ever!
Schnozzalee Posted February 4, 2010 Posted February 4, 2010 Holy shed!! I just watched that go! Lucky man, whoever got it. Congrats!
Hamster Posted February 5, 2010 Posted February 5, 2010 That is a damn fine sexy bass which I can't really afford but might have sold stuff to buy - serves me right for neglecting the forums for 3 hours bass practice!!!
drewie Posted February 6, 2010 Posted February 6, 2010 Congrats! If I'd seen it in time I'd have bought it. They are such lovely basses. I'll never sell mine.
kevin_lindsay Posted February 7, 2010 Author Posted February 7, 2010 Well, the bass was uplifted by the courier company on Friday - should be with Paul (the buyer) on Monday. The money for the bass should be with me soon also - let's see who's quicker - the courier company or the bank? hahahaha I hope you enjoy the bass Paul, it really is a fabulous instrument.

Huw Foster Posted February 7, 2010 Posted February 7, 2010 Although I'm too late (and completely devoid of cash), I just have to say how beautiful that looks. Also, what the hell is the last photo about?
