FS: Washburn Force 8 w/ OHSC $200 shipped MIJ

truckin88 · #1 12-27-2010, 09:31 PM

Washburn Force 8 4 string bass, comes with OHSC, in good shape for a 1984, avg. player ware (tuners are a bit corroded, white color has yellowed with age). Has it's share of dents, dings and scratches, small pin hole under upper horn for strap button that was relocated. OHSC is in good usable shape, with your expected wear and tear. Action is low, neck is thin.

I got a great deal on it here. I will pass the good deal on $200 shipped FedEx Ground to most of the continental US (if you are on the west coast $210, Fedex just killed me on a jazz bass w/ OHSC going to WA state it was $63.50 33lbs normal size.).

Only reason selling is I need to finance a snow blower after last blizzard and wife bought me an MF ATK blowout for Christmas.

If you pick it up $150...what I paid....pickup in Wallkill, NY 12589. If you live in the tri-state we maybe able to do a bit better on shipping.

All sales final.

This is not the case pictured, that is my T-40 case.

Whats it sound like?

truckin88 · #5 12-29-2010, 02:17 PM

a fat passive bass, pretty much a P bass sound, with a little more punch. The neck is thin and fast...maybe Ken can chime in and give his thoughts (he was the last owner)

Ken R · #6 12-29-2010, 02:24 PM

I remember the bass as being very lively. Not thumpish, per say, but not a Jazz sound either. Very smooth sounding, more high mids than a P bass. Not too thin though.
It's tempting to buy the damn thing back!

Must Resist!

I'll agree with that, to me it was close to my P bass with 1/4 pounders, but not as fat, but fat then a jazz. It sounds decent for slap too, since it has some punch.

I put an offer of $300 in for one of these in january but the guy wanted $325, offered like 4 times and then bought a jazz for $425. This is an insanely good price for a great bass.

Free bump for a great bass - A buddy of mine had a black one with white binding that was awesome.
