Wow, what an ass.Due to the fact it needs quite a bit of TLC and some workshop time, I'm willing to offer £200 inc. shipping.
Nice looking bass though!

What can I tell you? I do seem to recall saying on another thread that Scotland is a strange place!Retag wrote:Wow, what an ass.Due to the fact it needs quite a bit of TLC and some workshop time, I'm willing to offer £200 inc. shipping.

Bad news for me as well, as my ancestors all come from that part of Scotland - and the less said about them the better! 
I was actually a bit tempted myself - don't have any Japanese basses but do have a lovely '72 RI MIJ Telecaster and a '57 RI MIJ Strat, both of which are excellent instruments. Don't have any need for one right now though - my MIM Jazz does the job that this would do.

This is an E series MIJ - these things are GREAT basses - i have an identical one - someone needs to jump on this!

+1. I have an E-series Strat, and love it to death (although I did perform a lot of modifications to it, I must admit). They were the first all-Japanese series after the JV and SQ, that had some USA-made hardware and electronics, but still share the incredible build quality and finish of the mythical JV and SQ series.Bassaria wrote:This is an E series MIJ - these things are GREAT basses - i have an identical one - someone needs to jump on this!

Been speaking to the seller about it. Don't really need it but may make an offer anyway - gotta be worth more than £200 ($320) surely. Anybody got any further thoughts?
