Selling my 5 month old Spector Pulse II 5 in Ultra Violet. The only reason for selling is that in real terms, I require a 6 string bass, so something has to go to fund that purchase. This bass is in immaculate condition. There are no dinks, dents or scratches. Never gigged, rehearsed twice, played in my studio, and kept in a smoke free house in a flight case (case not included in sale). The neck is straight, action low, and the roasted maple neck is a dream to play, plus super stable. It has been upgraded from the Tone Pump Jnr to an Aguilar OBP-2 pre-amp which was professionally fitted. This has transformed the versatility of this bass. A necessary upgrade IMHO. I’ve also put on Dunlop strap locks. This bass, and this range, punches well above its weight. Stunningly constructed, plays incredibly well, and looks amazing. It comes with the original box and tools/lead. Pick up preferred, but will meet within 50 miles of Cardiff. No trades unless you have the right 6 string bass in the same condition. Any further questions, please feel free to get in touch. Cheers 🫡✨ Here are the full specifications of the bass. Features: • Fully contoured Spector NS body design • Solid Swamp Ash body is lightweight and resonant. • Quilted maple top • Bolt-on Roasted Maple offers improved neck stability • Active EMG pickups & Aguilar OBP-2 noise-free operation. • Unique matte finishes Did You Know? • The EMG pickups used in this model are the very same Spector uses in their higher end Euro models, and even in some USA instruments. • Macassar Ebony is a new fingerboard wood for Spector. Slightly softer than traditional ebony, this wood yields a balanced & focused tone that's perfect for low frequencies. Top Specs: • Three-piece Roasted Maple Neck; Bolt-on • 24 Fret Macassar Ebony Fingerboard • EMG 40DC pickups on 5-string • Aguilar OBP2 Active Pre-amp • Locking bridge; Die-cast tuners; Graphite Nut • Black Hardware Body: Swamp Ash Top: Quilted maple Neck: 3-ply Roasted Maple Neck Lacquer: Satin Neck Construction: 5-way Bolt-on Fretboard: Macassar Ebony Fretboard Radius in Inches: 16 Number of Frets: 24 Inlays: Luminlay Side Dot Markers Nut type: Graphite Nut width in mm: 44.5 Scale (inch): 35 Manufacturer pickups: EMG Pickup middle: EMG 40 DC Pickup bridge: EMG 40 DC Electronic: active, 2-band equalizer, Aguilar OBP-2 Control: Vol, Vol, Bass, Treble Tuners: Die-Cast Bridge: Spector Locking Bridge Number of Strings: 5 String spacing (mm): 17 Strap Button: Dunlop Strap Locks Hardware: Black Finish: Ultra Violet

A superb Mutron III clone, mint with box and manual. I really really like this pedal, but I'm not using it as much as my Mutrons. It makes much more sense for taking out of the house because of it's small footprint, flawless bypass etc, but I rarely need to take it anywhere and it doesn't get chosen at home as often. They're really hard to find for some reason (I don't think it was a limited release?) but I had to import this one from Spain. This model is the latest version with knobs and nice little switches as opposed to the previous version with sliders; apparently they could no longer get hold of the fader pots for them. I think this version is more controllable and looks better. Info below from the distributor website Any questions let me know Cheers ped The AF-9 is Maxon’s version of the venerable Mu-Tron III envelope filter circuit (original version, not HAZ reissue). The biggest difference between the two circuits is that the AF-9 runs on a single 9V supply while the Mu-Tron ran at 18V. In addition, the III had a Gain pot which controlled the output level of the pedal as well as the Threshold of the Filter – this was an awkward design, as it prevented increasing the filter sensitivity without raising the output volume of the pedal. These items aside, the basic structures of the two circuits are very similar. The AF9 starts with a unity gain buffer Op Amp and then splits the signal into control and effected circuits. The control circuit is shaped by the Sensitivity pot and amplified by an Op Amp. This control signal then travels to a series of two photocouplers. The effected portion of the circuit split goes into a three Op Amp filter network that is almost identical to the Mu-Tron’s, right down to the Low Pass, Band Pass, and High Pass switch that selects which portion of the filter network is used. These filters are triggered by the CdS cell side of the previously mentioned photocouplers. The AF-9’s Range is selected by changing the gain structure of the filters. After the filter network the signal is run through a unity gain buffer to provide a low impedance output. The AF-9 features Mechanical True Bypass switching via a Fujisoku 4PDT switch.

*Withdrawn* * Price drop - now £850!!!!! * Update July 2023 - Trade for JMJ Mustang preferably blue. The clear out continues - Very nice 2007 USA Jazz in stunning Blizzard Pearl up for grabs. Plays like a dream, sounds like a Jazz. Very nice modern C neck, no fret wear, very clean overall (hardly played) but has one small dink in the top edge (see pics). Weighs in at a very comfortable 3.75 Kg *Edit* (weighed it on a more accurate set of scales and it’s actually 4.2kg.*)on the bathroom scales. Price includes the case, which includes the case candy - Truss rod tool, 2 hex keys, case key, manual, hang tag and Fender strap with strap locks. Collection only from North London N21 with this one please, but I can offer tea, biscuits and bass related conversation whilst you demo it!

Withdrawn - decided to keep it. This is a custom one off build by Chris May for an up and coming bass player who sadly passed before his time. This is a tough sell for me as the feel and tone are amazing, but at around 4.8kg, sadly a bit too heavy for me and it needs to be played. It was made late 80s / early 90s and Chris has confirmed that apart from the preamp which was upgraded to a John East pre (therefore only the jack is connected, XLR is fitted but not connected), this appears to be original. It has sadly had a tough life, and I have tried showing the cosmetic issues in the photos. Given the wear, and that it is a Chris May one off custom, I have taken a guess at its value; feel free to correct me. Details: 35" scale Weight 4.8kg (bathroom scales) 24 fret Nut width 50mm String spacing at nut is around 9.5mm String spacing at bridge is 18mm 9V John East preamp Controls - Vol/Treble/Bass/Blend Finish is melamine based AC lacquer Tom from OW thinks it is a rosewood fingerboard on a maple through neck with flamed maple body wings. Hard case included. Price includes UK mainland postage, but happy for you to pick up from Bedford if you prefer. Could meet within a reasonable distance. Trades - not looking for anything in particular, but always have GAS. A Boss SY-1000 plus cash would get my attention! 😁 Bass wise would need to be 35" scale and preferably wood finish...but try me 😉

Beautiful, I would love to buy that and stick a Warmoth ebony unlined maple Precision neck on there There's someting quite Roscoe Beck about it, another example of Fender doing something a little different and doing it very well indeed (if only they'd do it more often). That's a great price given current USA Fender prices also 👍

Er, what does it look like?🤷‍♂️

Another one i'm letting go as no band no need for 5 basses and i love the neck on this and the natural colour - but its just going to sit here now not getting played - so it's pretty much brand new with La Bella low tension flats on that makes it like butter No case but still have box etc You can see all specs on Andertons Can deliver up to an hour from Clitheroe - postage to UK inc in price

Great basses, extremely capable but overlooked by most. I really dug the in between positions on the selector switch. And this finish is possibly even better than the metallic rootbeer they did. GLWTS!

Hey! Selling my much loved 5 string ash corvette, plays beautifully and (controversially) I think this is even prettier than the bubinga versions, it's probably lighter too 🙌 Currently looking for £650 collected, seems like waaaay below the price of other similar ones but I could do with the money and it's had some modifications mentioned below👇 Not really sure on the specs aside from the ash body, ovankol neck and ebony fretboard. All original hardware and pickups. I bought this 2nd hand many years ago, it was a fretless at the time, didn't realise until a few years later that a previous user had added the fret marker lines in and they weren't quite right. As I didn't have much use for a fretless and it needed fixing I decided to have frets added (professionally), in the right light you can still see the original fret marker that a previous owner had covered up but it's super subtle. Really nice action, nice low profile frets which feel great, only selling because I don't really play 5 strings any more. It comes with some DR hi-beams although they've been on a while so they're pretty dull. Happy to send over some samples or if anyones in the area they're happy to come and have a go. I can always throw in a case too. No trades, open to offers though.

This.....in a nutshell, is my life on Basschat and could be copied / pasted to sooooo many threads! 🤣 VK gear is great and this seems quite the bargain 👍
