It's OK To Feel Sad - Mary Chapin Carpenter

That looks like the early '90's Chic reunion. Bernard was also using a Sadowsky by then. A man of impeccable taste.

EDIT: Price dropped to £1500! Some of the more observant among you might recognise this beauty from the Bass Bros competitions website, from where I was lucky enough to win it a few months ago. Unfortunately I’m expecting my new SP-1 shortly, so I've gotta raise funds and this was kinda surplus to requirements as I already have an NG2 5 and a D-Roc 4. The bass itself was almost as new when I got it. There were a couple of very minor scuffs on the headstock, the writing on the back plate had mostly rubbed off, and at some stage the original owner must have lost one of the battery compartment magnets, and decided to double-down when fixing it. So where there were 2 magnets now there are 4! it plays like a dream and delivers all you would expect from the Darkglass pre. It’s also worth noting that it sounds immense in passive mode too! If it wasn’t for the imminent arrival of the new Dingwall I’d be more than happy to hold onto this. I am based in Belfast and would prefer collection, but happy to box up if you want to arrange a courier at your own expense. Comes with Dingwall soft case with wrench kit. Open to reasonable offers but no swaps please!

Aguilar Filter Twin envelope filter - great condition and super easy to use & get very useable sounds from. £120 inc UK delivery Blurb 👇 Boasting two filters in one compact pedal, the Aguilar Filter Twin dual envelope filter will give you both iconic '70s funk sounds and entirely original tones. Its two filters sweep simultaneously in opposite directions, one up and one down, for an incredibly expressive filter pedal. And with a simple layout featuring blend, threshold, and two velocity knobs, the Filter Twin is a breeze to play with.

Interesting that this thread has popped up on the front page today. I have had the last two days off, and in an absence of anything better to do (and a desire to get outside and touch grass after a long and stressful book project) I've been walking off in random directions across London, stopping when I reach a guitar shop. Today, I ended up in the shop not far from my parents house – it was the place I always went for strings and stuff when I was a teenager. I remembered it as a sort of dusty, neglected Tutenkahmun's tomb of beginner-to-mid-priced-instruments, a sad place with drop ceilings and heaps of cardboard boxes full of plastic recorders piled against the walls. So, it turns out it hasn't changed a bit. Amidst all the utterly unremarkable instruments, there was a Spector Legend – one of the four strings with the twin soapbars. It was covered in dust, but much to my suprise it played absolutely beautifully. I spent a while noodling away on it, but the guy in the shop couldn't tell me anything about it or how the electronics worked (it was in the stock of the store when he bought the place as a going concern in 2019). It seemed like it had active bass and treble controls, but they had no centre detent and behaved really oddly. So yeah. Not sure why I'm writing this other than to A) mention that I played a Spector for the first time and really liked it and B) to ask what's up with the electronics on the old Legend models (the Korean ones, from the early 2010s, I'd guess).

I've owned several Moon jazz basses and they are my favourite FSO. My current one is a 70's style JB4 with an ebony fretboard and a dark burgandy nitro finish. It's immense and really nails that 70's Jazz tone. It does differ from a 70's Fender in a coupe of ways, it's lightweight and well built! 😁 It's looking a bit more Road worn these days, but it looked like this when new.

I would normally say go with the Moon, for sure, but that one appears to have a neck pocket gap you could fit a cheese sandwich into.

Agreed on all counts - I paid [used] over £900 for my Aubergine one, and yes, they are excellent basses. There's something about the American Performer. I've got the Competition Burgundy Vintera II as well and nice bass though it is, the Am.Perf is genuinely a step above in both playability and quality. Definitely one of my go-to basses. Best of luck with the sale, Davy.
