Don't really need anything to be honest

We're gonna need to map an ancestry of it 😜 Who ordered it brand new?!

Wish I had the cash for this. A 🇨🇦 dingwall for the price of a new NG2/NG3!! GLWTS

For Sale Origin Effects Black label 64. These pedals are absolutely fabulous, bomb proof build quality,huge tonal variety and very easy to use and manipulate on the fly. It’s easy to see why this particular favourite of stellar UK session bassist Rob Mullarkey. If you want some cool vintage tones without having to lug a valve amp to your gigs here’s the solution. The unit is in excellent condition and comes with manual and original box. The price is £275 inc of postage to mainland UK. Any questions please do let me know.

The CFO and I have just come out of a bilateral meeting where a number of topics of mutual interest were discussed. Theses topics included: Balance of payments Import / export regime Tariffs Apparently I have imported quite a few basses and guitars into the house and the number of basses and guitars exported has hit an all time low of zero. This apparently means I am running a significant deficit. Due to this deficit the CFO is looking at imposing tariffs of circa 125%, such that a £500 bass attracts a tariff of £640 payable to the treasury, aka her bank account. She presented a number of options that I apparently have agreed to. Not saying anything anything as it could be taken the wrong way, clearly indicated my consent. She backed this up with leverage of me sleeping in the attic or the spare bedroom, my choice. I have no idea where she got these ideas from, but she has been paying a lot more attention to US news recently. I explained to her basic economic theory re balance of payments and who really pays tariffs, but I only received a stern look in return. So I am now selling two of the very, very small herd I have rather than enduring punitive sanctions of sleeping in the spare room. The Ibanez GSR 180 is a great and lightweight guitar, I just had a little noodle on it and its lovely to play. It is in very good condition and has a small number of tiny nicks on the body, I've tried to capture these in the pictures. The bubbling on the back is the protective film still in place, that’s how little use it's had. It comes with a soft Ibanez bag I also have a Harley Benton Deluxe Series active bass. This is a lovely bass but the neck and I don't get on. My thumbs are knackered from rugby and it's slightly too thick and it's painful after 15 mins. I brought it from a fellow bass chatter a few months ago but I have to recognise I need thin necks. So I've built myself an active Jazz with a Fender neck and a John East pre-amp to take it's place. Again a great bass and my thumbs do not do it justice. It's in good nick and as with all Harley Benton stuff its great value for money. I paid £95 but will take £80 for it. There is no case per se for it. The pictures make the neck look grubby , thats just the grain. There are great guitars for very little money, keep them as spares or use them as projects. I've two decent packing boxes for them to post but I'd really, really, really rather not as the postage costs will be high for what are cheap guitars. I am happy to meet people within an hour (ish) of Settle in North Yorkshire, I can Leeds or Manchester if necessary during the week as I work there. York is also possible. More than happy to look at swaps or trades. With cash either way, I'm looking for a decent small 6,8 or 10 channel mixer with USB in and out, or a decent FRFR speaker such as Headrush 112, a Boss Katana 100 MK2 combo amp or similar. Or something else that's interesting. I have enough guitars and basses (according to the CFO), so unless it's a 62 Precision or a Strat, thats probably not going to fly. I have more IT than I need so nothing on the IT side at all please Thanks for looking Rob

Bartolini 6RC Pickup. This is a direct drop-in for your Rickenbacker bridge pickup. Only selling as I am using an alternative in my 4003. Just a bit of shine on the top of the pup where the string rubs a little. Bass Direct have these new at £118 < only asking £75, UK postage included. PM for any more info, thanks for looking! SB 😀

Great pup

A very excellent Oc2 clone, but wothout the volume issues and a usefull mids switch. As new condition with box. £120 posted

Sorry, can’t do at the moment.

For Sale, my as new Sandberg California VT in shell pink. This bass was purchased a few weeks ago and is stunning in every respect. I have changed the strings for Labella Low Tension flats which sound fabulous if you like that old school vintage sound. Whilst I haven’t got scales I can assure you this bass is exceptionally light. I guess it’s around 8lbs, maybe even a little lighter. Bass Direct have one in stock at the moment which is almost identical at a little under £2200 and under 8lbs in weight. I have never really been taken with aged looks but this is very subtle indeed, the description ‘soft aged’ is very apt in this case. You may wonder why I am selling this wonderful instrument. Well I am a casual player and already have a custom Alpher bass and clearly having two high quality basses is overkill in my situation. I have no interest in collecting so I have decided to let this one go even though it is only around 6 weeks old. If you like this type of look and want a virtually brand new instrument for a substantial reduction on the new price please get in touch. The bass comes with a quality gig bag but unfortunately I have no box to ship it in so it will have to be a meet up or collection to hand the bass over in person. If you have any questions please do let me know. Thanks for looking.
