FEELER: Thinning the herd.

[TRichardsbass]

I have recently come to the realization that I no longer really need as many basses as I have. So, I'm looking to see interest in the pieces I have. The only two basses that I am not currently thinking about parting with are my Vaccaro Gen X and my Guild. PM me:

Kubicki Ex-Factor, black, #3220, 4/93. Was services by Phil within the past 5 years. NOT FCS! $1500

Kubicki Key Factor 4, black, rosewood fingerboard, #0071, 10/95. $1200.

Kubicki Factor 4, purple, #2963, 11/90. Has the 9V preamp system and is the 34" scale with no detune lever. Does not have any FCS marking on the headstock, although probably is. Phil told me in a recent conversation that a minute number of these were produced. $1100.

Fender Jazz Bass Plus, Black with maple board, #N3011254, 1993. $600.

Steinberger Q4/Q2(V)2, black, # TN15316, Tennessee production, NOT Music Yo or later, $850.

Steinberger Q4/Q2(V)1, black, #N4587, with Ned Steinberger/Newburgh factory installed prototype piezo pickups (have email from Ned). $1500.

Dan Armstrong Modified Danelectro, its a player, but in better shape then most I've ever had or seen. Has replacement period correct tuners. $600.

Silvertone 1442L, cocoa burst, as minty as you can find. Works but needs tone pot rewired in. $650.

Kramer 650B, all original, has one replacement pickup ring, $1000. There is interest in this, but in case that doesn't work putting it here.

First Bump.

[TRichardsbass]

Another bump, maybe the last. Seems there is some but minimal interest. Darn this economy....

I thought I responded, but let me check again! If I didn't, OOPS!

...a no. Unfortunately, the one Q5 I originally tried to get on evilBay got bought out from under me with one second to go. All I got is 4's.

Sorry.

[TheWoodShed]

Man I had a Q4, and it was HEAVY. All maple body. But man, that sound was wonderful.

I got it because I had once worked for a Steinberger dealer, and that was when I discovered EMG's. Never bought one while I worked there, but always wanted one. I traded it off once I got my Acacia (along with an Alembic and a 74 P bass).

These are a lot of bass for $850.00 (and the v2 has the lighter bodies IIRC)- great value if you ask me. Plus not4 such a radical departure from a standard bass due to the body.

[TRichardsbass]

Shame, not very much interest. The Kramer is still in play.

To our overseas friends here, I am sorry, I should have mentioned that at this moment I am not prepared to let any of my ladies head off shore. Unless its to Brazil, and I get to accompany it and give it to the girl in the bikini on the beach.

So, Kubicki's all staying. I hate to do it, but I might just have to contact Ed Roman about the Steinies....

Bumping my thread. Sorry, I missed a couple of your messages here, I was actually gigging! (Yeah!)

For those of you who would like pics, please email me at BassmanRichards@yahoo.com and put in the subject line the bass you wan't pix of. That way I can fire 'em right back at ya.

Definitely ready now to let some of these go...

[RSchuster]

Definitely interested in the Tennessee production Steinberger Q4, if it's still around. I know I'm a bit late to the game here. I'll shoot you over an email for pictures if you've got them.
