Sold on ebay

Hi all, up for sale is a pretty rare beast. I bought this from this very forum a few years ago as an initial foray into Upright. Dan's original for sale thread here has some detailed info on the instrument. It's in exactly the same condition as when I bought it, as it did just one gig with me and has otherwise only been used at home for practice. It's strung B-G and has a piezo pickup in the bridge, with a single jack output on the side. As mentioned in the original FS thread, it's the most authentic sounding and feeling EUB I've ever come across, and was precisely the reason I bought it. The shoulder is detachable, and fits into a pocket within the gig bag. It weighs very little and so can easily be worn on your back with the shoulder straps on the gig bag. Only selling as I need the space! £1000 - Would definitely welcome collection on this as I wouldn't want to post it, but I could also meet somewhere reasonable for a contribution towards fuel.

1994 MIJ Ibanez SR 890 with Wilde (Bill Lawrence) PJ set £300 with pickups or £200 without pickups Moving on my Ibanez SR 890 to raise funds for a Jazz V. This bass has a lovely thin and fast neck, but I find it's a little too slim to be comfortable for my hands, which are more used to Fender dimensions. When I bought it the stock active pickups had some issues and the preamp was noisy (and on closer inspection, corroded) So I replaced the pickups and preamp with a Wilde PJ set, currently wired passive as 2 x volume + 1 x tone. The Wildes have a very clear and bright sound which I found to be a big improvement on the stock pickups. The sale will include the original active pickups, preamp, and knobs. The installation was a bit challenging for my limited skills, as the pickups are a tight fit to the routes, and my soldering is not the best.. it all works but might not be pretty! As you will see this wiring has left a spare hole for a pot. My plan was to hook up a G&L style low cut, but as it's a work in progress I'm selling it as a kind of "project" bass, which I hope the asking price reflects. If you had different pickups in mind I'm happy to keep the Wildes for something else and sell for £250. The knobs were custom ordered from Xentric Guitars - I have a second small pot which will be included in the sale. The neck is shimmed to get the action lower - it's good where it is, but the bass side of the bridge is down as low as it will go. General condition is very good - there is some light finish scratching and a few small dings / marks as you would expect on a 30+ year old instrument. Some fret wear but plenty of life left in the frets. Includes an Ibanez gig bag.

these are really good-hows this still here?
