  1. Past hour
  2. Black Fender P Standard Bass with maple neck in beautiful condition. Serial number MZ9458554. April 2010 It’s been well set up. The truss rod has been adjusted to give a nice low action and is very comfortable to play and has a great tone with a warm punch. The electrics have been sprayed with Contact Spray, so they work as they should with no nasty scratchy sounds from the pots. The frets have been levelled and polished and the intonation is spot on. Happy to post at buyer’s expense. No case £500 Chaddesden, Derby DE21 4JJ All proceeds will go towards a charity for the homeless in Derby and a Home for street kids in Bogota, Colombia.
  3. Multi. Scale. Headless.
  4. Yes. You could just set the chat to ignore. Leaving the conversation seems childish. If he has issues but can't talk then that's his problem.
  5. Black Fender P Player Bass with in beautiful condition. The Player series are a step up from the ordinary! Serial number MX18005295. June 2018 They say: There's nothing more classic than a Fender electric bass, and the Player Precision Bass is as authentic as it gets - genuine Fender style and the rumbling, seismic sound that spawned a thousand imitations.

The truss rod has been adjusted to give a nice low action and is very comfortable to play and has a great tone with a warm punch.

  6. Here we go with 'pre-Fender' G&L for sale' adverts, I suppose.
  7. Sunburst Fender Power Jazz Bass with in beautiful condition. The Power series is quite rare and is active with piezo pickups under the bridge! See the picture of the wiring under the scratch plate! This series is a massive step up from the ordinary! It sounds huge! Serial number MZ7083536 so it’s 07/2007 The Power Jazz Bass® features two standard Jazz Bass® single-coil pickups coupled with a four-saddle piezo Fishman® Power Bridge (for acoustic/electric tones) with two volume controls as normal, then an ordinary tone control for the standard pickups then a stacked tone control for the active piezo pickups!

  9. At the very least I'd expect Fender to discontinue all the Fender clone models, which is a substantial chunk of the G&l skinny stringer range. Hopefully the L series basses will stay on account being substantially different from anything Fender are currently offering, but I wouldn't be totally suprised if Fender stopped continous production of all G&L models in favour of doing limited runs of specific Leo Fender designed models. As mentioned by @Jean-Luc Pickguard above, if the rumours are true, I suspect Fender probably see more value in the companies heritage and assets than they do in the actual brand. It may even just be motivated by the desire to stop another company buying G & L & acquiring their rights to use Leos name in conjunction with their products.
  10. I have three USA G&L basses. Love them and they ain't going nowhere. Real shame if they get swamped by the Big F.
  11. Lightweight and quite rare Fender Japan Precision Lyte Active bass guitar! It’s probably the lightest bass you’ve ever tried! Standard 34” scale length. 7.5lb (3.5kg)! It’s sunburst. Unusually, the coating isn’t cracked and peeling though there are a few age related dings. It has a high-mass bridges for superb sustain and stability, active electronics with 2-band EQ and Blender and beautifully voiced PJ pickups for a huge palette of sounds. 9v battery for the active circuit. The neck is really slim and fast--- much more like a Jazz bass than a standard P bass: 38mm. 22 frets so it’s a full 3 octaves (normal P or Jazz bass has 20 frets, so only goes up to Eb) Serial number: K013970, which indicates it was made in 1993-1994. Excellent condition for its age. The neck heel has the MicroTilt adjuster, the hardware is all gold. It’s been well set up, with the intonation set correctly and a lovely smooth action. The neck has been treated with lemon oil so it’s clean and fresh. Check out the video link from Normans Rare Guitars: https://youtu.be/UQgLBGelkCQ Happy to post at buyer’s expense.

  12. Yeah, i think these are a great size for sitting on a desk (mine is white) for the odd blast. i do have a Fender Rumble 25 in my wardrobe that i never, ever use. I suppose i could get that out but thats a lot more hassle.
  13. I have a 2022 CLF L-1000 and it's a lovely instrument. It's at the lighter end of my basses and it's a beautifully made instrument. The wood grain on the neck and fretboard are pretty spectacular for what is basically a factory-produced bass. I bought it in matcha green though so that should probably be taken into account in considering how much weight to give the earlier sentences...
  14. I reckon they'd release a Fender L2000 if the buyout rumours are true. I don't know what happens to the other MFD pickups, I can't see them releasing a P or PJ with the SB1/2 pups unless it was a US line. Same with the locking bridge, maybe that only gets used in the US Ultra (or not all) sort of range.
  15. I imported a Heritage jazz from Japan and it oozes quality. GLWTS.
  16. Made a show reel and demo of my compact pedalboard. No tweaking or talking, just going through my dialled presets in scene and stomp mode.
  17. I've gone for the full AUROK branding on the front. Flying the flag for this excellent venture, as it were. I've also had the body logo'd with MGCS Basses, in order to promote @Silky999's excellent work too. I just ordered another set of the Fender Pure Vintage 66's today, and the Gotoh black lollipop tuners.
  18. Another date for the diary, apparently this one is a belter. Vintage Bass Room will again be there so if you come along, don't forget to give me a shout. Cant promise to have JMJ or VJ from Kaiser Chiefs there like the Leeds show, but I will see who I can rustle up!

  19. I own the exact same bass also fitted with Ultra Jazz pickups! It's an an absolute ripper and amazing all-round quality for the money. Lovely colour too. You can't go wrong with one of these!! 👍
  20. Got one of these... nice unit, sounds great. Lots of gain manipulation options. GLWTS
  21. Now £80.00. Boss RV-6 for sale, this one is mint and in perfect working order, no box, collection welcome or UK insured postage for £8.50 BOSS RV-6 Reverb Effects Pedal Combining high-end sound and wide-ranging versatility, the BOSS RV-6 takes pedal-based reverb to the next level. Reaching beyond the capabilities of previous generations, this powerful stomp employs the latest tech and legendary BOSS know-how to make it easy to get amazing reverb tones instantly. From subtle rooms to modern shimmer effects to long, evocative reverbs, the RV-6 envelops your tone in lush ambient spaces that endlessly inspire. BOSS RV6, Simply Great-Sounding Reverbs Packing the latest BOSS DSP and updated algorithms, the BOSS RV-6 gives you eight highly musical reverb effects in one compact pedal. Add body and depth to your core tone with standards like Room, Hall, and Plate, dial up swirling richness with the Modulate setting, or surf it up with a vintage-style Spring reverb. Dynamic mode automatically adjusts the effect depth to your playing touch, providing deep, immersive reverb that won’t turn your tone to mud. And modern players will love the new Shimmer and Reverb+Delay modes. Dialed-In Reverb Sounds at Your Command The BOSS RV6 makes getting high-quality reverb sounds with your guitar quick and easy—just select a sound mode, tweak the knobs to taste, and play. But while its operation is simple, the RV-6’s sound is rich and sophisticated. Under the hood, each mode includes a huge array of detailed reverb parameters, all perfectly tuned for guitar by the BOSS engineers with direct input from many pro players and sound engineers. Even as you adjust the selected mode with the Time and Tone knobs, many parameters are simultaneously adjusted inside to create the ideal voicing for every setting. Analog Dry Tone and Versatile I/O While the BOSS RV-6’s reverb effects are high-tech digital, you can rest assured that your straight guitar tone always remains pure analog as the effect is blended in. Convenient auto-switching jacks let you integrate with any pedal chain, with support for mono, mono-to-stereo, and stereo-to-stereo operation. And by plugging into the B input only, the BOSS RV6 outputs a 100-percent wet sound, great for working with more complex rigs that employ parallel processing chains and mixers. There’s also a jack for connecting an optional expression pedal, allowing you to control the effect level in real time as you play.
  22. Now £350.00. This amazing emulation of the acoustic control corporation 360 preamplifier with variamp and built in fuzz is up for grabs. Hand made by the renowned JC Maillet and commissioned and imported by myself at great cost. I have used the 360+ for studio recordings, gigs, rehearsals and at home, it has never dissapointed. The preamp sounds fantastic and the fuzz section is the best I have used. I have owned this pedal for a good few years from new, as can be seen it's in pristine condition. Specially sourced UK power supply also included. Will happily run from other sources with the right leads (I used it with a trex chameleon). Fully detailed printed instruction manual also included. Only available as I have more preamplifiers than I can use. Try out/collection always welcome, or UK insured postage for £15.00
  23. I do use a small rig at home, pretty much all my learning is done with headphones but for general playing it's more convenient for me to use a little amp. Since getting a Double Four my 1x10 rig is in storage and about to be listed for sale, I imagine one of these or an X4 would be even more convenient.
  24. Ooooh had another thought... somewhere here I have a Kent Armstrong pup in a Wal pup cover 🤔
