obbm Posted April 9, 2010 Posted April 9, 2010 (edited) The way things are at the moment I can't see myself gigging regularly again for quite some time consequently I have no need to keep this bass. It was originally specified and commissioned by Old Horse Murphy. The full details are of the build are [url="http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=9416"]in this thread[/url]. Last year Nick put it for sale [url="http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=66199&hl=shuker"]in this thread[/url] It is in tip-top condition and has been kept in in it's gig bag, apart from a couple of hours playing, since I acquired it last year, consequently there are no additional marks or blemishes over and above those mentioned in OHM's original description. £1200 or interesting trades/offers. Not in the market for anything specific but you never know what might take my fancy. Try me but be prepared for me to say no. Edited May 26, 2010 by obbm

Ou7shined Posted April 9, 2010 Posted April 9, 2010 This bass is on the same gallery page as mine on [url="http://www.shukerguitars.co.uk/pbassgal.htm"]Jon's site[/url], I've always thought it rather yummy.

Higgie Posted April 9, 2010 Posted April 9, 2010 I remember seeing this when it was originally for sale. Wanted it then, and still do now Shame I have no money!
JMT3781 Posted April 24, 2010 Posted April 24, 2010 i really am looking for another 5 string shuker, but all have to barter with is an enormous bergantino cab... which is why this is only a semi-serious post, because i'm resigned to the fact you are going to say no lol

I'm sure the combination would sound wicked however having previously owned NV610 I know that I would have problems moving it about which is why it would sit unused in my garage, and that would be a waste. At my age the last thing I need is to have to take the garden shed to a gig. I have finally arrived at suitable compromise of MB F1 and Epi UL310 both of which I can get into my Smart.
JTUK Posted April 25, 2010 Posted April 25, 2010 That just works.... the look of the neck just does it for that bass.
molan Posted April 25, 2010 Posted April 25, 2010 I've played this, albeit not plugged in, and thought it was really nice
Linus27 Posted April 25, 2010 Posted April 25, 2010 I've also played this and it is stunning. The colour is amazing in the flesh. Someone will get themselves a beautiful bass.

obbm Posted May 2, 2010 Author Posted May 2, 2010 Weekly bump. Consider trades for basses/amps/w.h.y. but not effects - don't use them.
obbm Posted May 5, 2010 Author Posted May 5, 2010 (edited) Could be interested in trade for 4-string Status S2 Fretless (headless) or MM Sterling Fretless. Edited May 5, 2010 by obbm

Did I already ask this before?![/quote] I'm sorry but the only ACG I'm interested in is the one Alan is making for me. BTW you haven't asked beforeso thanks for the suggestion.
