NOW SOLD Here we have a very fine example of a very good quality MIJ Jazz bass which I bought a good few years back I got it from a guy in London who had bought it for his father in the early seventies but he played very little and it was stored in his bedroom for over 40 years in the original case hence the wonderful condition, even the lining is like new. I have never seen another until one came up here recently with the Kimbara badge and they are identical with the steel adjustable MIJ neck plate I think that these were imported under Various names such as kimbara ect.... Its in wonderful condition with no rust or pitting to the chrome hardware and is all original with both pickup covers, I have looked inside the cavities and the wood is solid and not plywood as some of these era guitars were. The workmanship is top notch with lovely binding and block inlays. A comfortable 40mm neck width When I first got it and opened the case I was shocked at how good a condition it was in, as if it came straight from the factory, there are a few very tiny dings that you have to look hard to find and difficult to photograph but that are minor Weight is 4.6 Kg which is the exact same weight as my 75 Reissue Fender Jazz A beautiful collectors piece and probably the best condition bass I have seen for that age The price includes delivery to UK addresses Any question Guys just fire away

Hi there! Over the years I ordered many basses to many great luthiers. One of them was Ritter Roya 5 in 2017. Process ordering was really nice. I remember like yesterday being to his place and chossing the amaizing AAA Quilted Maple top and rest of woods. So I got the bass in 2017 and since then I was playing only home a few times because I also ordered in 2014 an Alleva Coppolo LG5 (jimmywood fingerboard) which was more suited to my music. Bass did not left my home and was all the time in the case.So, the bass is in mint condition, comes with nice case (see photo), all original papers from Jens Ritter including Certificat of Authenticity. (The gold writting, can be easily delated on the back of the headstock if that is a problem. Is not a permanent marker). See specs of the bass in photos! Price 4999 euro + shipping. Trades possible, but value for trade will be 6000 euro. Try me with a nice Fodera or a Ken Smith Elite. No 4 strings.

I'm selling my Moollon B524, it's a great bass as you probably know about Moollon. It's painted very thin coats of nitrocellulose in root beer finish, I think that finish in not available anymore. I have an extra pair of Moollon pickups, the new ones are on the bass, they are more mellow than the old ones. You can try and see for yourself what suits you. It has a few dings on finish from use but it's in great shape. Wonderful low B and tracks exceptionally well. Will be shipped in ProTerc gigbag. I'm the first owner. Construction: bolt on Body: Alder Neck: 1 piece quartersawn maple Fingerboard: Macassar ebony Fret's: 24th Neck width at nut: 45mm String spacing: 19mm Handmade passive Moollon dual-coil pickups Scale length: 34” Hardware: Moollon fabricated in-house Finish: Rootbeer, nitrocellulose finish Pots: volume neck, tone neck, volume bridge, tone bridge, 3-way pickup selector Weight: 4.2 kg (bathroom scale) Here are few clips of the bass, but you can find them also on youtube https://www.facebook.com/1007775001/videos/778468232865284/ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tvlH7lAcwaA https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j0iJ6-hbIFY https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mUJsJxSCqHs https://youtu.be/PTaPwJso7iY I would trade it for Moollon J5. Bass is located in Zagreb, Croatia. Shipping across EU is around 50-70 euros. You can check my feedback page on basschat here:

Since I have decided to go back to drop tuned four string basses, I am putting up for sale a couple of my 5 stringers. First up is my Fame Baphomet 5 bought from another basschatter last year while on tour. Those are German handmade basses made by the same people that makes Mayones basses. The bass is very Warwick inspired in look and feel (MEC pickups, sculpted back, 2 band EQ, tight string spacing). The 2 band EQ makes it incredibly versatile and it can be played passive too (volume pot is a push pull pot). The finish is very striking and it's rough to the touch, I have tried my best to capture it in photo. It has a small dink above the fretboard and a small scratch on the neck but nothing that affects playability. It's been a great pairing to my Warwick Double Buck and I hope it goes to a good household where it gets played. Weight wise my scale says it's 3.8kg but it feels much lighter. Bass comes in a sturdy Fame case as well. Those basses are around £800 quid new so I think £450 is reasonable. No trades as I have just bought something else and I don't want to get shot by my girlfriend. I am based in St Albans, Hertfordshire so feel free to come around to try it. Happy to drive a reasonable distance to deliver/meet up for fuel money or to package it up and use a courier. Happy to use Paypal as long as you're happy to cover the Paypal fees.

I sell my beloved bass from my birth year. Was made in the end of 1974 beggining of 1975 and this can be checked after the 4 bolt screws of the bass. Tone black knob is not original. (See pic).

If this was in the uk. I’d already have bought it. damn 🥰

Yamaha BB435 Had this for about a year, bought from the fount of bass knowledge that is @therealting, original advert linked below. Excellent condition with some minor swirl marks. No dings and only thing to note is a feint scratch on body to the left of the bridge as you look up the neck (see photos). Has previously had a full setup including rolled fingerboard edges and fret level. I've raised the action slightly from when I got it and it's been used lightly at home. Selling as have a BB1025 incoming and therefore no trades either. Also comes with original cream pickguard. Specs: Construction 6-bolt mitre neck Body solid alder Neck 3-ply maple/mahogany/maple Neck finish satin Inlays dot Scale Length 34” (863.6mm) Fretboard rosewood Fretboard Radius 23 5/6” (600mm) Nut width 0/12fret 43/63.9mm Frets 21, medium Nut Graphtech Bridge Vintage Plus Light (steel baseplate/ saddles) String spacing 18mm Machineheads Lightweight open-gear Pickguard 3-ply cream Pickups YGD V5 P/J (alnico V) Controls neck vol, bridge vol, tone Hardware Colour chrome Strings D’Addario EXL170 45-100/130 9.36lb or 4.25kg (from previous advert) Collection from Orpington BR6 is preferred. Can also collect from my parents place in NW4, or I can meet a sensible distance away. Failing that have copious amounts of bubble wrap so can post at buyers cost and risk. No case/gigbag but can throw in one for £15 if needed.

I'm clearly tired out this weekend - I thought an Orpington BR6 was a type of bass I'd struggle even more to play a Shirley B90. The Yamaha, however, looks very nice indeed - GLTWS!
