  2. Hi Chris, Seems I don’t automatically get a notification when someone replies! I’ve PM’d you the number. Terry
  3. I’m having a big clear out of basses, strings and pedals. Pretty much anything that I am no longer going to be using so that I can reduce my collection to just 1 main bass, a back up and the pedals that I need. I bought this immediately prior to taking a year out from playing so it's never seen a gig since I bought it and still has whatever flatwounds were on it when I bought it. I had one of these bass in the early 90s and fancied another. Plus it was a cheap way to remind myself that I'm not very good on fretless and to stop eyeing up other fretless basses on the marketplace 😂 It has marks here and there consistent with a 34 year old bass and the volume and tone controls are a bit scratchy but I never noticed any noise when playing, only if you let a note ring out and then turn those controls. I will be supplying a gig bag with this as it didn't come with one. Looking at all of the other basses I'm listing it looks like I must have bought a job lot of Thomann gig bags as they appear next to each bass 🤔😁 I think that this is the lightest bass I have coming up for sale at a positively featherweight 7.8lbs. Collection preferred but I am happy for you to arrange a courier as I have plenty of packaging materials to ensure that this is well packed.

  4. I’m having a big clear out of basses, strings and pedals. Pretty much anything that I am no longer going to be using so that I can reduce my collection to just 1 main bass, a back up and the pedals that I need. Bought brand new earlier this year I think 🤔 this is a 2023 Fender Player Precision, going by the serial number, in Seafoam Green with Pau Ferro fretboard. I fancied a set of Bartolinis after watching a video with Freddie Washington so went the whole hog and paired them with a Six String Supplies prewired solderless harness. I wanted to have the option to return the bass to stock if needs be so I removed the original scratchplate with the pots still intact, even going as far as to remove the bridge to allow me to thread the earth wire through without having to desolder it. This is a replacement scratchplate that I bought for it. I also had a set of Hipshot Licenced Ultralites so fitted these as well. I don’t actually think it has left the house since I bought it and as such is in mint condition. Although it’s not one I’ve gigged, I am going to miss it. It’s such a stunning looking bass. The weight of this lovely bass is 8.2lbs. I have a few options depending on what the buyer wants: For the bass as you see it, along with the original tuners, pickups, scratchplate, case candy and a brand new gig bag I would like £600 £550 gets you either the Ultralites or the Bartolini pickup included – plus the gig bag and original parts depending on what option you go for. £500 for the bass returned to stock, still including the brand new gig bag. Collection preferred but I am happy for you to arrange a courier as I have plenty of packaging materials to ensure that this is well packed.

  5. I’m having a big clear out of basses, strings and pedals. Pretty much anything that I am no longer going to be using so that I can reduce my collection to just 1 main bass, a back up and the pedals that I need. I have always loved single coil P basses but I am never going to have the opportunity to play this live so I may as well let it go to a good home. Used for 1 gig in 2023, it's pretty much in mint condition, right down to the fact that the plastic is still on the scratchplate. It also comes fitted with a set of Ernie Ball 2810 flats that I had already bought for a 5 string. Collection preferred but I am happy for you to arrange a courier as I have plenty of packaging materials to ensure that this is well packed.

  6. Lush as
  7. The cable I bought is rated for 20v 5a. Not particularly bothered if it doesn't last for hours as I won't be gigging with it or doing any serious rehearsing, it's just something I already own so it would be nice to get a battery powered amp for the price of a cable.
  8. do we get cake in the end too?
  9. Wow that Fender app and input device look great. Less faff wins everytime for me!
  10. Ok so ive given up for now on this. It may or may not work, problem would, but at this price im not going to chance it until ive tried a few cheaper options.
  11. I like DR Sunbeams because they seem to lose the initial zing quickly and then stay in that 'ideal place' for a long time. I like flats, various types, but none feel like a substitute for older rounds, they just do their own thing. Having said that, Ernie Ball Cobalt flats are probably the most round-like flatwound string I've tried.
  12. I'd probably pay £80 for the excuse to learn a load of new songs and gig them with new people!
  13. Blatant plug... I just happen to have a 2-channel Joyo delay which does reverse for sale on the market place https://www.basschat.co.uk/topic/512155-joyo-d-seed-digital-delay-with-2-channels-£45/#comment-5474799

  15. The 2%-5% handling fee thing is easily dealt with. On the rare occasions I encounter it I just add the same percentage to the band's fee, I tell the booker about it in advance, and I tell them why I'm doing it. I've never once had push-back on that. The people I'm dealing with routinely agree with me that it's fair, and of course it's not their money. If they've booked a band at £300 they're hardly going to switch you off because the fee is now £306.
  16. To be fair, it's quite easy to put dots in the right place and remove and fill in the wrong ones. Definitely worth doing if the bass is otherwise great!
  17. 20,000 mAh sounds impressive except mAh stands for milliampere-hour. That means a more sensible/honest rating is 2 Ah. That well may be compatible, but you want to be sure of it, and that the USB cable is rated for at least that.
  18. They feel like they're made of helium. Personally I'd go for the longest scale you can find, if you go fretless (23-25" feels ok to me, less than that it gets tricky, but fretted is fine). I'd also consider one of the GoldTone offerings. I have an M23 fretless, solid body, and it's pretty cool. They also have hollow body versions for even lighter propositions.
  19. A benefit of this is not then spending your share straight back over the bar, so you end up with actual money, albeit at a later date.
  20. Hi, no, it’s 34’
  21. Yeah this is the 2.0 version, the first one was quite a different beast altogether. I assume the bars were added later on. Don't see many of these about!
  22. It's speaking to you! 🤣
  23. Great little starter or practice combo, which has been connected up to test the circuit only: otherwise unused and in pristine condition. I can post this to the UK insured for £25 (I have the original box) or you are welcome to collect it from Mapperley in Nottingham (tea and biscuits available!). I'm also happy to meet up within an hour's drive from home. Full transparency: I also have this listed elsewhere, but for £275, so this is a special price for BCers. They are £349 from the major retailers. Not really interested in trades on this - I'm trying to downsize (and I could do with the cash!). MarkBass say: The CMB121 Black Line is an amazing entry level 150W combo, the perfect choice for those who want to start with the right sound and have enough power for both rehearsals and gigs. It delivers a sound superior to any other practice amp at this price, thanks to Markbass tone and quality. It features a headphone output, and an aux input for connecting your favourite media players to mix with your bass sound, letting you practice [sic] anywhere, anytime. These Black Line combos don't have the VLE and VPF filters you see on more expensive MB kit (no doubt to keep the price down), but I do have the Super Booster pedal which includes both (I took it in a trade recently with @Paddy777 of this parish). It's pictured, though not included in this sale, but I'm sure we could come to some arrangement on a price for a bundle of pedal and combo together! Hit me up if you're interested.
  24. Taking offers as I could do with the cash
  25. Going on tour 31st March, so happy to take offers before it gets chopped in!
