For Sale Super Headless

Post by ceebs13 Thu Oct 26, 2017 8:08 am

Hello all,

I've a Westone Superheadless for sale in the UK (Peterborough, Cambridgeshire). I've had the bSuper - Super Headless D2MoW2mjieykpL412ass guitar for a decade, but gave up playing bass a few years back. I've purely been lazy not selling it, but need the cash now to buy a new piano.

There are some scuffs on it & also a custom switch on the body that replaced the original that broke - photos attached. I wanted to see if there was any interest before listing. Ultimately, not in perfect condition but pretty good.

This bass deserves a better home - it's not been touched for about 4 years! Reply if you're interested, thanks.

Best,

Casey

Yes, pictures are helpful eh? Wink

That's a beautiful model and since we don't have any pix on our web sites I'd like to add them to the Headless entry.

Best of luck with your sale.

I know! I tried uploading one when I originally posted and it didn't work, then just kept forgetting!

Please by all means use the photos. I couldn't actually find a single photo of this model & colour online so would be good to be made available.

Cheers!

That's a beaut!

Thankfully (for me!) I have no spare money at the moment, otherwise I might be sorely tempted to do something silly...

Best of luck with the sale Very Happy

Shame, as I've spotted you're only in Lincolnshire so would have been pretty easy sorting that out!

That does look a great bass. But two too few strings for me I'm afraid!

I was about to start selling you my six-string bass but I don't think that's what you were getting at..!

I used to take my super headless as a back-up when I gigged, but for 99% of all performances I was using my Ibanez SR406. The drummer used to HATE the superheadless with a passion - no taste, clearly!

Headless instruments seem to evoke strong emotions. Technically they make sense, but aesthetically they seem to be incomplete.

I've been playing a Steinberger for the last few months. For the first few weeks I'd often be 2 frets too high because I guess my peripheral vision was expecting a headstock and I'd be gauging my position relative to that. Surprised

I'm forever banging the headstock on the cymbals of the drummer when I play bass, so a headless could be a good option for me. I'm used to a 5-string now though.

I think you've nailed it Don, at least from the players perspective. I have a similar problem trying to get oriented on an SG. The neck seems unusually long and I keep getting lost.  geek

A chronic problem in a band, especially when in a tight space. Even as a "front man" my head stocks bear a few cymbal scars too. Sometimes it just doesn't pay to turn around and say "hi" to the drummer!
