bassix Posted February 7, 2010 Posted February 7, 2010 (edited) So, after the resounding failure of selling/swapping my Classic Vibe P I'm now offering my 6 months old 4 String Epiphone T-Bird Pro. Lovely bass, brand spanking new condition and comes with a Epiphone hardcase. I have made one modification which is to move the strap button to the back to solve the neck dive problem. In terms of trades I'm looking for a Jazz or MM to get a bit more tonal variety but will consider others if it fufills this criteria. If you fancy this but have a nice bass to trade I will consider throwing some money in... Edited February 10, 2010 by bassix
jonsparrow91 Posted February 7, 2010 Posted February 7, 2010 I probably offered it on the other thread too but would you be interested in a Kramer Focus 7000? Its a JV Fender ripoff from the 80s. Essentially a passive precision bass with a humbucker/soapbar at the bridge (with phase switch).

bassix Posted February 8, 2010 Author Posted February 8, 2010 I probably ought to mention this bass is of the four string persuasion..
bassix Posted February 9, 2010 Author Posted February 9, 2010 [quote name='riff raff' post='739361' date='Feb 8 2010, 08:25 PM']i have this. [attachment=42101:aria1.jpg][/quote] Not what I'm after, thanks though.
bassix Posted February 9, 2010 Author Posted February 9, 2010 I should also mention the strap button has been moved in order to alleviate neck dive which has worked rather successfully.
bassix Posted February 9, 2010 Author Posted February 9, 2010 [quote name='Jigster' post='740214' date='Feb 9 2010, 06:02 PM']still no pics?? [/quote] With that comment I will do it now!
bassix Posted February 10, 2010 Author Posted February 10, 2010 I've had a couple of requests for a price since the pics have gone up so may as well offer it for sale too. Looking for £300 including hardcase.
bassix Posted March 16, 2010 Author Posted March 16, 2010 Still available to anyone who wants to look sexy whilst playing as demonstrated perfectly in my avatar.
ogrimark Posted March 16, 2010 Posted March 16, 2010 I am thinking that the T bird pro has better pickups than the standard T bird? I have the standard and love it, i did the straplock move to behind the neck to sort the balance problem and it works a treat. I Will be showing this thread to our lass tonight as a "Its my birthday soon. Please.......i will do the washing if you buy me it" might come into play.......
bassix Posted March 17, 2010 Author Posted March 17, 2010 Well the key difference between the two is that this is Active whilst yours will be Passive. The bass is of a generally higher standard build quality than the standard T-Birds and IMO the pickups are a step up too. Give her the old puppy dog eyes, how could she possibly resist?!?
ogrimark Posted March 17, 2010 Posted March 17, 2010 I got the standard answer last night that she will look at how much money she has at the end of the month. fingers crossed. she likes it though....cause its black.
bassix Posted March 17, 2010 Author Posted March 17, 2010 Well if you fancy a trip to Brighton to try it out then you are more than welcome, same offer is extended to everyone else too.
CraigPlaysBass Posted May 2, 2010 Posted May 2, 2010 Hmm, trade for an Ibanez SRX08 ltd? quite similar to the epi but with a 24 fret neck and really easy upper fret access. The 2 band eq is really powerful, lets you dial in a really warm growly town reminiscent of a split p on the bridge, or quite a harsh trebly solo sound on the bridge, quite reminiscent of a soloed jazz pickup. Drop me a line, I can record a little demo if you want but it won't be anything special playing or recording wise
bassix Posted May 4, 2010 Author Posted May 4, 2010 I've actually already got an SRX which is great but I'm not really after another. A sale would be good to go towards something sexy.
Ian Savage Posted May 4, 2010 Posted May 4, 2010 Sexy? Don't suppose a red sparkle Bass Collection SB441 would float your boat would it? [url="http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=85196&st=0&gopid=827696&#entry827696"]http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=...mp;#entry827696[/url]
