    Wanted Wanted: Chadwick Folding Bass

    I have a Chadwick I'm looking to sell. I'm asking $2800, and it comes with an Ingles bass stand. The bass has very little use, the flight case and the circle pickup. Chadwick Folding Bass

    At this point I'm just trying to make some floor space, so I'm not taking trades. But thanks for the offer.

    Now that I've got strings on it, the action is coming way up, and I'm going to bring it to my favorite repair shop. The guy who owns the place is a bass player. I'll ask if he'll make me a demo if you like. Is there a particular style you would like to hear?

    OK, so if I play this thing through my Pignose amp, this thing does sound like the description. It sounds like an old AM Transistor radio with a 2" speaker. When I play through my GenzBenz Streamliner 600, it sounds pretty good. In fact, it's in kinda harsh shape, but it's not a bad player at...

    Here are a few shots... [Invalid or Expired Link Removed] I included shots of the wiring. The pickups are wired to the three buttons. The neck pickup goes to the front button, the bridge pickup goes to the middle button, and the rear button seems to be connected to a couple of cap's on the...

    I think I'm going to keep it stock. I have some nice bases for playing. This one is mostly for show. I'll take some closeups. What would you like to see?

    Is that tuna or mackerel? Is that yours? Have you tried them? in 1975/76 I worked on a commercial fishing boat when the US still had only a 12 mile international border (it's 200 miles now) We used to run into Russian factory ships on a regular basis. One time our gear got crossed and we...

    I expected it to be much smaller, but it's a full sized axe. It's a 32" scale, and the neck isn't that bad... I still have lots of cleaning to do. The fretboard is a mess, the frets are tarnished, and some of them are scored. BTW: I didn't buy this to be my go-to bass. I grew up during...

    Me too... That's why I bought it. That, and it was advertised as the ultimate Zombie Smashing weapon. These things have a reputation for not only being indestructible, but they are balanced better for swinging than playing! :thumbsup:
