artisan Posted June 28, 2010 Posted June 28, 2010 (edited) the bass is only 2 months old & in mint condition well apart from the factory relic job of course. it is a beautiful bass indeed & sounds very authentic 60's P bass,looks amazing too with it's nice "knackered nitro' finish. sat down and playing accousticly you get a nice thump in the chest with each note,just like a P bass should. the strings are still factory fresh & the bass plays beautifully with a rather nice setup,evem if i do say so myself. it comes with the original "deluxe" gig bag that came with it. price is £550.00 ,cash only please,collected or i will meet up with you somewhere not too far from Harrogate. cheers. any questions just ask away.

Frusty Posted June 30, 2010 Posted June 30, 2010 I'd buy this right away if it was the sunburst one - I've done plenty of reading up on these models and I've read nothing but glowing reviews about them. Don't be put off by the fact that it's made in Mexico.
