This one should be mine very soon

Hi folks,

Here's a (not that good) pic of the SR5 I'm probably about to buy. It will all depend on the sale of my Fender J, which should normally happen this Monday evening.

As you can see, this bass has some wear, but it plays great and sounds like a well-trained army of SR5's.

There's also some wear on the back, but the whole bass is completely "healthy". Just a matter of cosmetics.

The seller has kept the original white pickguard, and yes, I will put it back on it.

For just that few wear, I will pay 1/3 less than the usual used price, and 3 times less than the street price of a brand new one.

Opinions, anyone ?

Cheers
Jay

Sounds like you are getting a good deal. I am not into the clear pg either, glad to hear the previous owner kept the original pg. Congrats!

Yeah put a pickguard on her and she'll be a beaut! Hope the deal goes thru, good luck.

I love that color.

Is that honeyburst? I love honeyburst!

 

[JayAmel]

Yes, it is honeyburst. I also love that finish.

 

[Bill]

Sweet! It'll look even better when the white pickguard is back on it.

 

[JayAmel]

My friends, the good news is that I got the SR5 !
I'm just back home from the seller's appointment, and I'll try to make pics tomorrow and post them.
This bass plays and sounds really great, and even the big wear on the back won't be able to diminish my joy and pleasure.

Cheers
Jay

 

[Psycho Ward]

Excellent! Congrats! I'm happy for you and yes we'll need the pic's.

 

[Bill]

Cool! I can't wait to see the photos.

Here are the pics !

Hi folks,

He are the first shots I took today.

I'll have to do some little work on Sunday to put the immaculate white pickguard back on this beauty, and then I'll post the new pics.

Enjoy !

That's going to look nice once you get it cleaned up.
