  1. Past hour
  2. The holy grail of 4 string basses IMO. I love mine and have done well over a 1000 gigs with it. If I win the lottery, I'd love to have 2.
  3. Thanks all @BigRedXno just a stock photo, not my bass
  4. WANT!! ...someone please buy my Spector in basses for sale
  5. I have this bass. It's a servicable student instrument that can be played for many years. I think it is a hybrid (despite what Stentor claim), with ply sides and back, and a solid spruce top. Though I have a much nicer bass (Bryant), I still take the Stentor out to plenty of gigs as I don't have to stress about it as much. However - I don't think this bass has been professionally set up. The finger board still has the original bevel and many luthiers would remove that when they do fingerboard work, in my experience. The bridge looks like the original one, and it has been made into a mess by someone trying to bring the action down. It'll need a set up for sure, possibly a new bridge too, which might run to about £300. The market value of a used Stentor like this would be about £1k-£1200 max, set up. So let that factor into your decision.

    I didn't even know there was one in London.
  7. This was mine and is a gorgeous bass. Feels manageable with a wide strap even for a glass back like me. GLWTS Martin - this is a great price for a Precision of this era.
  8. Of interest, maybe... GearSpace : Red5 RV8 Recap..? Try contacting Red5 Audio, perhaps..? They could advise, or even repair it for you..? Their contact is ... Contact for Red5 Audio...
  9. Apparently Hobgoblin in London is Paul McCartney's favourite music shop....... it's spitting distance from his MPL Offices in Soho Square. Maybe he'll invest in the company?
  10. Hi Donny. I’m afraid I’m not looking to trade. I really need a sale. Will consider close offers though. Derrick
  11. Looks great, i'm over Brighton way, would it be possible to arrange to come over and try it with my bass amp? Are you looking for cash or bank transfer?
  12. Really appreciate the offer mate, but I'm away next week.
  13. 1980 Fender Precision special, Lake Placid blue. Wired passively due to the active circuit needing a repair. 4.9kg as is typical for this model. I'm sure the circuit would be easy to fix, the bass works very well as is; priced to account for this issue. Great sounding bass, really even over the board without the 6th/7th fret G string dead spot problem. I've played many eras of P basses and this measures up sonically with the best of them. Selling due to it being a lean year for gigs. I can supply gut shots if required but there's no additional routing and due to the painted headstock it's pretty obvious it's not a bitsa. UK sale only, collection only but happy to meet up within reason. Fender fibreglass case ( well used and heavily stickered) included. Original parts included obviously also. Thanks for viewing, Martin
  14. Thanks for your input guys. I'll go and have a look at it. I've talked my D B player mate into coming along so will see how it works out.
  15. 400 miles?....well it's got wheels and it's all downhill when you look at the map.
  16. Today
  17. Congrats! They are amazing and versatile heads--and generally much underappreciated. I'm an Ampeg tube head guy, but love my ABM (same as yours). One pre tube doesn't replace a head full of tubes, but Ashdown has the best implementation of one tube pre I've ever played. I wish I had bought one years ago.
  18. Well I may be in Edinburgh at the weekend and travelling to Peterborough on Thursday if that helps? Don’t mind bringing it that far buddy
  19. Well there’s a Fodera in the classifieds for £5! Same scenario maybe? 😂
  20. Powers up (with generic 9V) but has very quiet, slightly distorted sound. I suspect it’s the volume pot gone but could be more… Otherwise in physically good condition. Could be a good project for the DIY enthusiasts out there.. Price is posted to the uk.
  21. All unused, top quality sets. Double ball ends but possibly can be used for shorter basses. 37” length. (I could use the outer strings on my standard scale bass but would rather sell as sets). * Newtone 5 string sets x 6: Diamond Bass, hex core, stainless steel, 46-130, length 37” (ball end to ball end) with tapered B. £25 each (discount for multi purchase) ( I also have a Hot Wires 5 string flat wound set…pm me)
  22. Shame that this is still here…. Took it out on a gig on Sat and it was as expected…..special!👌🏽 Waiting on a luck owner🤞🏽
  23. Have no idea.🤷🏽‍♂️ Not really prepared to mess with anything. A quick clean sale is preferable….
  24. Maybe usable with other similar guitars? Unused so in mint condition. Postage possible…

  26. It's all very subjective. I wanted to get the Electra closer to German, so I did preamp, pickups and tuners. Aguilar are small pole and Alnico so psychologically more vintage. And I had the bits here already. Tone is good across the Sandbergs without any tweaking though! VM4 and Central to go, then I have the full set!
