Hi all Up for sale here is one of my own builds. There are quite a few basschatters now with my builds/nitro finishes so I’m happy to put you in touch with them if you’d like feedback on the fit and finish of these. This one is made up of top quality parts and comes in at 8.6lbs/9kg. I can also sell it with one of the amazing Novak Vintage Correct Goldfoil pickups but that will add £100 or so to the price. Open to offers. Let me know if you have any questions, it’s a lovely bass. Brilliant chunky Allparts neck with hand rolled fingerboard edges and a nice satin finish to the back. The lollar hum cancelling pickup gets that raw single coil P sound without the noise! Spec below: - Allparts Fender Licensed Neck with Fender Decal THIS IS NOT A FENDER BASS - 100% nitro black over sunburst finish with lots of lacquer checking - 3 Piece Lightweight Alder Body - Heavy Knurled Relic Knobs and Control Plate - Fender Bridge - Gotoh Relic Tuners and Strap Buttons - Graphtech nut - Lollar Hum Cancelling Pickup - Reliced vintage style flat head screws throughout

For sale, a fantastic example on an early Classic Vibe Precision. Pretty much spotless as far as I can see, no dings or scratches. A little bit of tarnishing to the neck plate, some screws and to the pickup poles. Currently wearing TI flats. Weight approx 9.5lb. I bought this on here a few months ago and as lovely as it is, the neck's just a bit too slim for me - I prefer the chunkier profile on my 50s Precisions. I won't be upset if it doesn't sell as it's lovely. I'm not particularly looking for trades but you never know... Collection from Dartford or can meet up somewhere.

October 2023 update Unfortunately I've had a change in personal circumstances which means that I really need to shift this bass. I've dropped the sale price to £600 accordingly. Thanks! ------------------ I may end up regretting selling this bass, but I sadly have no space for it in my collection! Like many, my first bass was an Encore P-Bass in a delightful Candy Apple red. After enough saving - helped by generous Christmas and Birthday gifts - I bought my first "real" Fender Precision from my local Dawsons, and this was the bass that saw me through my teenage years. It was a great looking and great playing bass, yet in my infinte wisdom I sold it. I can't recall what replaced it - it could have been a Cowpoke Precision, or possibly a Status Shark - but I know that I came to regret selling it. So when I had the opportunity to buy another one in recent years, I just *had* to have it! So why am I selling it now? The simple answer is that I treated myself to a SIMS custom shop bass with a real flame maple blueburst finish, tort scratchplate, graphite neck and Quad pickups, so this bass really is redundant! The serial number places it as a 1994/95 made bass, and for those unaware the blue fotoflame finish is some sort of lacquer - i.e. it's not a real stain over a flame maple finish. The lacquer is prone to cracking near points of stress - like the neck plate and the bridge, and while there's some bit of cracking, I've been told that this is actually quite mild compared with other basses this age. There are also a few other superficial scratches and dents which I've tried to photo. The bass originally came with a white scratchplate (which I don't have), but I think the tort looks much better - but the fit is not 100% perfect so when it is removed it is prone to scratching the very side of the neck - which I've shown in the photos. The bass went in for a repair about a month ago to have some loose connections in the electrics sorted, and it also had a full set-up and neck realignment at the same time. Collection from Widnes is naturally preferred, but I'm happy to ship if you arrange for courier collection. It will ship in a padded gig bag as well as cardboard box that I've received other bass guitars in. The weight per my bathroom scales is 4.3kg / 9.5lbs. Thanks for looking!

I need to sell this fast to get another bass quickly. £450 if you can pick it up. Selling this and maybe another bass to get a medium scale Jazz from Japan. This bass is great. Only thing I changed was to put on black pickguard but have the original white one that I’ll put inside the package. No hardcase or bag I’m afraid but I have boxes from buying and selling a few basses over the last couple of years 😂. Asking £550 which includes delivery to UK mainland only. If you want to collect you can and have it for £500 from PE27 3FW which is St Ives Cambridgeshire. Ive tried to take photos of the normal wear areas but this hasn’t got anything I can see,just the normal small scratches maybe but no dings or wear.

I was one of a few on Basschat that pre-ordered this limited edition model after @cetera (a Spector endorsee) instigated it's production in early 2022. The original options for finish were black gloss, white gloss and tobacco burst. Gary kindly looked into getting some made in my preferred finish of Ultra Violet and Spector agreed. Here is the Basschat thread regarding the Euro X. I believe there are also some photos in the Spector thread. There are only a few of these in existence in this finish (and I mean low single figures) and they sold out immediately. I ordered it so that I could have a something for a hair/metal type band that never came to fruition, so it has not been used. I now have some other projects on the go which means this is unlikely to see the light of day. This bass has not been rehearsed or gigged. It is as new as the day I received it. It comes with a Spector branded gig bag and it's adjustment tools in a white envelope (still sealed). I also have the Spector box it was delivered to me in. The finish on the bass is stunning and really awkward to capture due to it's mirror like properties. I've done my best.

Lovely piece of kit bought about 8-months back from @Brucegill here... It's SSL so the build and functionality are second to none. But - and it's becoming quite a big but - when it comes to audio I'm realising that I get better results when my eyes are seeing what's going on alongside my ears hearing it, so I'm increasingly reliant on working in the box. But anyway, it's a lovely piece of kit, adds that little bit of mojo to a mix. Details here https://www.solidstatelogic.com/products/fusion ]

I bought this about 2 years ago, but have done very little with it - I don't really play bass anymore so want to move it on. It's in excellent condition; I've only played one (very civilised, jazz) gig with it, and I don't think there's a mark on it. I have, however, made one modification - a Hipshot string tree (see photos). It's currently strung with flats (Chromes). Sounds lovely, plays brilliantly with a good low action. When I bought it, I tried all the Mexican Precisions in the shop (i believe it was five), and picked my favourite. On the scales it comes in at a smidge over 3.9kg / 8.6lbs. I'm based just outside Nottingham in the Vale of Belvoir - but I'm happy to travel a bit to meet halfway, etc. I'd rather not post as I don't have a hard case for this, only a gig bag (which will also be included in the sale). The bag is a good quality one, with lots of generous padding, but still I'd rather not risk a courier. I'm not really interested in trades, unless they're acoustic guitar or mandolin related.
