Just decided I need an Infinity after seeing Norwood Fisher last night, then when I'm looking for prices I come across this.

Decisions decisions!!!
 
:shock: :shock: :shock:



Lovely!

Get it! :)



Funding permitting, personally I'd buy it in half a heartbeat!
 
I have a few people interested in the SS1 so funding should be ok.

Only sticking point is Norwood's bass sound from last night on his Infinity - WOW

You are still here? Man this is a beauty, and the price... I'd buy it NOW :-)
 
Holy crap!!!!!!! Is that one of its kind or what.

Get it! You can always buy an Infinity later...
 
haha i saw that bass a while ago and was like...damn if only i had the cash spare...

GET IT GET IT GET IT!
 
Dude, if you really want that thumb, you best move fast...I'm trying to round the cash up for it!
 
If you don't, I will. Seriously.
 
If someone else could buy it first that would save me thinking about it ;)

I'm a little 'stuck' on the damage to the back of the bass....
 
yeah, I see what you mean... the battery compartment can easily be changed, but the crackling of the finish is another matter...

The neck and front seem in great shape, though...
 
Damage? It doesn't look bad at all...there is that one duct-taped bit...

There's just no way I';ll be able to raise the cash at the current exchange rate. :( Get it Lex!

Prince is just so cool
 
Could probably get the back refinished....

Just redo it yourself with Tippex...

You are talking to a guy with 2 white basses already.. I'm well out of Tippex...
 
I have asked Bass Centre for some more detailed pics of any damage - which I will post.

I would ask a friend who works in London at Sound Control to check it out if I decide I want it.

My only fear is that I have never really played fretless before and this would have to serve as a back up gigging bass, which could prove interesting :lol:
 
Hehe...you need a great ear to play fretless basses in the dark!

Go for it Lex...it suits you ;)
