El Degas Bass For Sale- Gibson SG / EBO Copy w/ Case

[sauljesse]

Hi! So excited to have found this forum! I have an old El Degas bass to sell. Looks like a Gibson SG or EBO bass. It has the original chipboard case. Sound is pretty cool. The giant chrome pickups are thumpy, and can also put out a punchy tone. I'm sure it can be tweaked to sound different. Nice condition. I replaced the chicken head switch, and cleaned it up since finding it. Seems good to go . The dampening saddle is cool, but maybe not so useful, as it changes the tuning a bit when engaged. Email sauljesse@gmail.com, or post interest and contact info here. Asking $500.

Beauty!

If I didn't already own one, I'd be chomping at the bit. Best of luck with the sale!

Ni-i-i-i-ce!
If I played bass I'd be all over it.
Somebody out there please buy it and keep it in the "family"!

Thanks for the happy words! Hope the bass finds a good home!

Hellos--- Still hoping to find a good home for my El Degas bass. How about a lower price? $400?
Thanks,
Jesse

Hey Jesse,
This is not the most well known guitar forum around; our members are few in number but they're normally enthusiastic about their El Degas's! You might have to be a bit more patient than you'd like to be to find the right buyer.

You could always try the Craigslist/Kijiji route if things remain too quiet, BUT link back to this forum for the info.
That way we'll all get more exposure!

Definitely list it locally as well as on here.

I sold more than half of the El Degas instruments I had for sale locally, even though some of them were found by people here online.
