Great price for a great instruments

Exactly what a 60’s bass should look like 👍

I don’t think the fret lacquer cracking is uncommon, I had it on my old Streamline. Never got any worse or peeled. GLWTS.

Valeton Dapper Bass all in one gig fly rig. Switchable Compressor, auto wah, preamp, octave and chorus with onboard tuner, FX loop, DI. metal case. Some very small marks from live use but well looked after. Should still have the box for it kicking around. £50

Boss DM-2W analog delay pedal in excellent condition with original box - £200 Now £170 plus p&p (collection welcome too). I’d also trade for an Aguilar Tone Hammer V1 pedal plus cash my way. The pedal has been modified by Time Travel Audio. It is a momentary oscillation mod. The new switch is the bypass switch and the original switch momentarily ramps up the feedback. The side mounted knob 'tunes' how much the feedback happens. The link below is a video of what the modification was based on:

I wholeheartedly concur with @Silky999 - this is a spectacular little bass with a rich and full sound - We even tuned the pickup angles between us, so it sounds perfectly even between each string. If I hadn't taken a 5-string Maruszczyk Mr.Tee Shortscale in P/X last week, I'd be having this myself! The engraved 'MGCS Basses' logo on the body is next level cool, too.

Fender Jazz Bass 1965 Original L series Fender Jazz Bass from 1965 with an old nitro refinish. Possibly the original color was olympic white, as I can’t find a trace of another color in the cavities. The bass is all original, apart from the refinish. The decal is original too, though there has been some sanding around it, it seems. Probably to remove the dirt around it. All electronics and hardware function like they should. The neck is straight with a good functioning truss rod. The pickups are the original grey bottoms, which are undated. The pots date to week 12 1965. Overall condition is very good. There are small damages and usermarks around, but nothing shocking. Soundwise it’s one of the (if not the) best jazzes I’ve owned. The sound is warm, deep, clear, punchy… very nice. Thomastik flats are fitted; which are a perfect match. Especially through a nice tube amp; just lush. Playability is great too, a low action is not a problem. The neck has a nice worn in feel too it. Weight is 3,95kg on my kitchen scales. The original case is included, and it’s still sturdy and totally functional, though the toplayer of the logo is missinh. The original chrome pickup covers are included as well. This bass will possibly be withdrawn for sale if my '70 Competition Mustang sells first. Price for straight sale €7.000 Partial trades (lower value basses, guitars) are negotiable though. I'm not after anything specific at the moment.
