5 string set of 1/2" Hipshot USA Ultralite tuners in Gold, all in great condition 4+1 configuration for a right handed bass, Gold fixing screws included. Can provide more photos if required, but they came off an overwater bass if that helps. Not sure what postage would be until packed ready to go, but I'm sure we can work something out.

Leonard Smalls replied to ead's topic in Bass Guitars
I've got one of these as well! Bought it back in 1987 or so and replaced the pick-ups with EMGs - tis a surprisingly funky little number! Doesn't get much use any more I'm afraid... -
Kongpressor, EHX Small Stone (another price drop)

Basses you hardly ever see for sale

Possibly a good thing for us lot - Out of sight, out of mind (and hopefully less out of pocket!) -
Hence why you hardly ever see them for sale! 🙂

That's the one indeed!

JPJ started following Upton Bass combo
-
Since entering the world of double bass ownership, I’ve watched a lot of the content put out by the guys at Upton Bass in the good’ol US of A. Last week they posted this interesting video of a combo they are developing specifically for double bass. Interesting combination of a down firing 10” woofer with a front mounted mid-range driver, built-in HPF and an eq ‘specifically voiced for double bass’. Still in the prototype stage, but I thought I’d share here. https://www.instagram.com/reel/DJZ-FN3yk-b/

There's so many basses mentioned on this thread that I've literally never even heard of much less seen 😂

Yamaha TRBX605FM in amber tint. Stunning at this price point. The bass is really well put together, functions with no issues at all, tuners, bridge, truss rod all beautifully operational. Is essentially a brand new bass, condition is excellent. Body is lightweight, well balanced and smooth contours on the heal. Overall it's a very well designed and put together instrument, perhaps given the Yamaha and TRB legacy more generally that's not surprising. The bass has been further upgraded by the addition of Aguilar DCBs and an East unipre (5 knobber with active/passive switch). I only purchased this week from Happypants as I was curious to try something I could tune E-C. It works brilliantly in this regard however the neck is not really what I want for this and I know ultimately it's not a keeper. I am becoming a neck snob as my years advance it seems. Pictures are current with TI Flats on but I'll restring with the original B-G rounds and undo the very minor adjustment I made on the bridge so it's restored as a more conventional 5 string. Also included is the original Yamaha pickups and preamp in case you wanted to fully restore it and reuse the East/DCBs... potential bargain right there some might say 🙂 No case but Happypants packed the bass well (thank you again matey, BC kudos!). Alternatively I am selling a Gator gig big which could be included in the deal if helpful.

Absolutely. I've persevered for ages with Fender's *own* strings which we know are made to their spec by D'addario but after fitting a set of actual D's EXL165's, my Jazz bass has come alive. Bizarre. -

Are they wood or plastic? If the former, a quick dismantle, a couple of cans of Tuffcab and you solve the aesthetic issue for a lot less money. It looks from the discussion above as if the cabs you are looking at will be a sidegrade, rather than an upgrade. Not the best use of funds, especially if your existing tops are still performing perfectly well. I'd give them a freshen up and continue saving for something that will really be an improvement. As Phil points out, it's splitting hairs to look for differences between the likes of QSC, RCF, FBT, Yamaha, etc. They are all roughly equivalent in terms of price and will offer similar performance.

Panic Shack at Band on the Wall in Manchester last night - really good performance by a fun, loud band in a great venue. What's not to like?
