SOLD FS/FT: ESP Ltd B206SM 6 string bass -NEW- *large pics*

trade pending...

I picked this up off eBay recently and after messing with it a little bit, i'm not sure it's what i'm looking for. I think it looks and sounds really nice, but the string spacing is just a little too close for me.

Here is the MF page with some info...
http://bass-guitars.musiciansfriend.com/product/ESP-LTD-B206SM-6String-Bass?sku=513745

here are a couple youtube vids of a guy playing this model bass...

 

Standard 54mm nut <-listed on the esp and musicians friend site...is that what you're looking for?

i don't have a mm measuring tool to see what they are at bridge and nut...

edit: still available...all trade options have fallen through.

updated original post to reflect what i'm looking for the most.

 

6Feb09 - edit: trade is STILL pending with manoverboard_21. i shipped on 16Jan09 and he received the ESP on 22Jan09 (www.ups.com 1Z58F48A0347096657) and i am still waiting on a bass + shipping reimbursement from him as of 6Feb09! :scowl:

9Feb09 edit: Added latest news at bottom. Bass arrived with damage that appears to have been present prior to shipping. Here is the delivery confirmation number from the Yamaha: (www.usps.com 03080070000101152842) If you track it at the usps site, you will see it was not shipped until the 29th of Jan. I was told it was on it's way by will numerous times, to include on the 28th of Jan. He originally said he shipped it on the 24th and never recanted on that claim.

He knew that i was shipping the ESP and failed to mention that he would be unable to ship the Yamaha and wireless system + reimburse my shipping costs until he got paid; i was later informed of this through AIM. Even still, i have seen nothing of the aforementioned trade items.

Here is a blurry pic of my shipping receipt...i don't have a good camera at the moment, just cell phone cam

The following is a long read and i've tried my best to make sure everything is in chronological order...follow it as best you can, but take this from it: lots of empty promises and a lack of professionalism on the part of manoverboard_21.

A lot of the dialog took place on AIM since i was first contacted via that medium. I realize now i should have just had him post here or, better yet, not deal with him in the first place. :scowl:

Some pm's from Will (manoverboard_21):

After trying to deal with this through AIM and trying to call Will, i went to john turner, who is an admin here...

Please note that the following pm says the bass is on its way, but wasn't shipped until the 29th of January according to the postmark and stamp on the box.

PM'd john turner once more since i hadn't heard anything from Will.

9Feb09 - To this there was no reply, but i did receive the bass today. It was not in good shape, which i pm'd to Will and cc'd john turner.

Will failed to respond to this pm and was on the site for more than enough time to allow him to do so, even to tell me that he needs to think about it. I am horribly ashamed to say that i shipped the bass without getting anything in return first. That was on me. The rest, however, is completely the fault of Will (manoverboard_21). I am extremely unhappy with this transaction and i advise anyone else planning a trade with Will to live close enough to do it face-to-face.

I will update this post/thread as needed, but i feel that this all needs to be publicly documented for future transactions so other members know what to expect.
