Hi all, Unfortunately, an unexpected bill has come in, which means that this excellent Fuzz/Filter from CMC Audio (who make the Proto Type overdrive) has to go. I bought it a little while ago, and honestly, while it’s excellent, it’s also the most valuable of the many fuzzes I have, so needs-must. More info from CMC here: https://cmcaudio.odoo.com/shop/bi-filter-fuzz-33 I made a video of one particular sound I liked below, but there’s more videos on their Instagram and on YouTube which shows it doing straight Fuzz tones, as well as synthy, envelope filter tones too. You can attach an expression pedal, and a holding down the footswitch means it works as a momentary switch (until you take your foot off of course), a short press and release obviously still allows a latching function. No box, but it’s as-new other than Velcro on bottom and will be packed very securely. £185 inc UK postage I’m open to part-ex’s (what u got?), but need at least £100 cash. These are circa £230 new + plus delivery from Belgium + VAT. BFF.mov Cheers Si

For pure self indulgence I have quite fancied a 10 stringer when I was playing in a folk band, but now would have no musical opportunity to use one. Having looked at a few 8 stringers on line some have the octave strings above and some below the main strings and i wonder what is the benefit of each? My simplistic guess would be fingerstyle would be below and pick playing above.

That’s stunning. GLWTS

That’s a beauty

Fender Jazz Bass 1965 Original L series Fender Jazz Bass from 1965 with an old nitro refinish. Possibly the original color was olympic white, as I can’t find a trace of another color in the cavities. The bass is all original, apart from the refinish. The decal is original too, though there has been some sanding around it. Probably to remove the dirt around it. All electronics and hardware function like they should. The neck is straight with a good functioning truss rod. The pickups are the original grey bottoms, which are undated. The pots date to week 12 1965. Overall condition is very good. There are small damages and usermarks around, but nothing shocking. Soundwise it’s one of the (if not the) best jazzes I’ve owned. The sound is warm, deep, clear, punchy… very nice. La Bella flats are fitted; which are a perfect match. Especially through a nice tube amp; just lush. Playability is great too, a low action is not a problem. The neck has a nice worn in feel too it. Weight is 3,95kg on my kitchen scales. The original case is included, and it’s still sturdy and totally functional. The original chrome pickup covers are included as well. This bass will possibly be withdrawn for sale if my '70 Mustang sells first. Price for straight sale €7.000 Partial trades (basses, guitars) are negotiable though. I’d be especially interested in a Modulus 34" scale quantum, Fender or similar electric guitar (strat, jazzmaster, tele) Epiphone sj200 1957, Precision Bass…

I have the following for sale. To sell as a job lot would be lovely, but I am happy to break up into smaller batches too of course. Postage will be added and calculated according to items purchase, but if you buy the lot I will cover it.

I bought this new in April last year, using it briefly before discovering GR Bass. As such, everything is in mint condition and I still have the original boxes too so shipping is an option. This is an incredibly versatile amp, so much so that I couldn't possibly run through everything it can do here. There are lots of video reviews worth watching, but I am going to guide you to our very own Dood's review here, which gives a good deep dive into the amp. Boss Katana 500 Bass Head (£734) Boss BT-DUAL Bluetooth adapter (£45), so you can adjust settings on the fly via the app Boss GA-FC pedal (£99)l, again, for ease of switching in a live setup Boss VE-22 Vocal Processor Bag (£74), a perfect fit for the amp, power lead and a couple of speaker cables I’ve added some pictures taken today but forgot to add proof of ownership. Hopefully folks will know I am a stand up guy on here and save me the effort of retaking the pictures.

Yes, all good thanks, Gareth! 🙏😊

Gigged this yesterday and another bass player came up afterwards, took it off the stand and examined it! Perhaps I should post all the specs, but I think you all know what a Flea Jazz is. Someone enquired about the neck. I bought from Bass Direct as I had heard some necks were warped, but clearly didn’t have to send it back. All was well. I will, though, photograph the flaming, which is exceptional - the neck is not reliced like the body.

Lovely bass, right up my street in terms of spec. I find ramps ruin the look of a finely crafted bass such as this - any chance of a photo without the ramp? (I'm not a buyer - I have too many basses, but purely for my viewing pleasure I'd like to see it without the ramp!)
