300 watt all tube head...NB, I was Kennyrodg on here back in the day....I've been out the game for a good few years and lost my login details....So I gave up playing live a few years back and this has sat unused in my living room since...I had it serviced about month before I packed in and it's been back at the Tech's last week to have everything checked over prior to me putting up for sale...I picked it up today so here it is... Everything's checked out with it, it's 100% running perfectly, the tubes are biased correctly and I'd describe the condition as mint...There's not a mark or scratch on it anywhere.. I have a bespoke flight case for it,that's been stored in the shed so it's not mint ....as you'd expect i guess...The corners are a little rusty but nothing that won't clean up. I had this paired up with a pair of Bergie AE210's, suffice it to say, it sounded incredible. I still have them so come give it a whirl if you like. The amp is in Preston, Lancs for collection only, I won't post it but I'll be happy to meet up in person within a 50 mile radius. Cheers. If you guys think it's overpriced then please let me know...I saw one sold August last year on FB that was listed at £675 and from the pics was not in the same condition as this one....Not wanting to judge but I've been out of the scene for so long I've no idea what things are going for these days so wanted to try and be fair with it. Cheers.

Sold How is this still available at this price? You getting some cool extras over the Standard for about the same price at £950. Looming debts forced sale of this bass and a GK legacy 800 head both of which are amazing and hope I can be in a better financial position later in the year to rebuy some quility gear. Amazing neck on these,a bit thicker (in a nice way) than the Mexican basses which I find too flat/thin,satin feel neck also. I could only see that mark on the bottom which was there when I bought it and don’t ever see it as it on the bottom rear. It has been upgraded by having the pickups swapped to Monty’s retro wind which is the sound of the early P basses but with more bottom end for modern amps that can handle it. comes with the Fender case (has white marks on the back) pickup from PE27 3FW or I can post for £60

I ordered this direct from Matt. Must have been 20 years! So it's an one owner bass from new. I believe the top is Amboyna on swamp ash body. Ebony fingerboard. Bart pickups and electronic. 18mm spacing, Gold hardware. Recently setup by John, The Bass Gallery. Comes with a Pro Tec semi softcase. Shipping included in UK. Thanks for looking.

For sale here is a stunning example of a vintage Ibanez Musician fretless bass from 1986. It is the MC2940 model if you want to do some further digging on the bass. It has been in my possession for around 10 years now and other than some university performances, it has not been gigged and primarily used as an at home bass. I love this bass but it does not get the use it deserves meaning that it is some for a new stewardship! It has an amazing growly tone and does not feel like it was made 30+ years ago. The look is fantastic but is hard to catch on photos. Currently have strap locks attached to it but the original gold finish strap pins will be put back on before the sale. Also comes with the original hard case. No shipping. Collection in person from Chippenham. Happy to travel within reason

Fantastic value alnico Precision pickup from Tonerider. These have great reviews online. I bought this to replace a P bass pickup I thought was defunct however it just required a simple rewire so this was only mounted briefly. The quality of these pickups is astonishing for the price. They sound as good as pickups three times their price and certainly a step up from Squier and standard MIM pickups. It comes with unused screws, original packaging and wiring diagram. Price includes UK postage.

For sale, a G&L LB-100, Option Order model, made in USA in 2022. It is in very good condition with no visible marks, except for a few scratches on the pickguard and a few surface marks on the body, nothing deep, impossible to photograph. As stated, I had it made for me as an Option Order (also called Built to Order nowadays) and the specs are as follows: -Empress body (also called Paulownia), this is a super light wood that makes for a very light bass! Total weight is 7.4lbs/3.3 kgs. This body option is NOT available from G&L anymore! -Quartersawn maple neck with satin finish. Very stable and comfortable. Truss-rod is working fine, although you need a smaller allen key (which I'll provide) as it is not the usual Fender-size. It makes adjusting the truss-rod a tad more finicky but my luthier confirmed it is working as it should. -Indian Rosewood fretboard, 41mm nut width, 9.5” radius. -Alpine white body, black pickguard. -Precision style pickup, passive electronics, volume and tone. -Headstock with G&L logo but no model name. Slick. -Comes with the G&L flight-case. It sounds and plays fantastic. You can pick it up in Edinburgh (or we can meet up within reasonable distance), or alternatively I can ship it fully insured and securely packaged across the UK, for an extra £60. The same bass nowadays would set you back at least £2000, if not more. Made in USA, custom order baby! Any questions give me a shout. Thanks!

I’m having to let go of all my long scales due to wrist issues which is a particular shame given how much I love the look of this bass. The Thunderbird-esque pickups sounds fantastic too so much so I’m seriously contemplating a custom short scale build with these pickups! The bass is in mint condition and still has one of the pick-up stickers attached. Weight is 3.8kg Full spec below: https://www.epiphone.com/en-GB/Electric-Bass/EPIM96326/Smoked-Almond-Metallic I’ve made some modifications to address several shortcomings from stock and include: 1. Hipshot licenced Elephant Ear tuners 2. Upgraded volume and tone pots 3. 4-way rotary pick up selector by Dingwall offering neck/series/parralel/bridge. The output when in series is HOT! 4. Chrome knobs by John East The wiring was completed by Alan at ACG guitars and the installation was completed by the Bass Gallery in London who also fitted the turners and completed a full set-up. All work expertly done. Collection from Reading/London. Happy to ship +£20. I also have a new Thomann hardcase that I can include for shipping purposes for an additional £50. I’m always reluctant to ship without a hardcase! Will also accept trades for various pedals! Some ideas below - Meris Hedra/Polymoon/Mercury 7 A preamp - Origin Effects, Capo, EBS Microbass, Nordy Starlifter or similar Origin Effects Cali Future Impact HX Stop Strymon Zelza Eventide H9 Anything by 3Leaf or Iron Ether This is a video of the actual bass - And some YouTube reviews: Any questions, please feel free to ask. Always welcome to pop along and try it out if you happen to be in the area.

I’m selling my old Fender Precision Special made in the US in 1980. It comes with original case. I’ve modded it as it was far too heavy with the original all brass hardware, however I still have the parts and it’s easily converted back. The only extra holes drilled are for the Hipshot tuners and these would be covered by the original machineheads if returned to stock. The original preamp will need looking at however as it has stopped working in active mode. I thought it was a dodgy battery clip and had that replaced but it’s still not working. It is now wired passively. CTS pots, Switchcraft output jack. The pickup is original and so are the white covers. One half of the pickup has been rewound by Aaron Armstrong at Armstrong pickups and the output matches perfectly. Scratchplate is original with small plastic caps covering the holes from the old controls - again easily removed should you wish. Current weight is a very comfortable 4.3kgs. The replacement hardware is a combination of Hipshot and Fender. The original hardware includes the dodgy preamp, incredibly heavy brass bridge, neck plate and knobs plus gold plated tuners. The original heavy brass thumbrest went years ago. The weight of the brass parts alone is 1kg! The bass has been gigged and toured a lot over the years. The lake placid blue finish is original but there are plenty of dings and touched up areas. It’s real road wear! The neck pocket has the matching serial number sticker, there is no extra routing to the body. It plays really well and the neck is great. The frets are fine and the trussrod turns as it ought to. No structural issues or neck repairs. There is a small shim in the neck pocket. It’s a good honest vintage Precision with a few stories to tell. The case was originally smoky smelling so I have cleaned it and aired it. It may benefit from further treatment - wood shavings left in over night, air freshener, that sort of thing. Long before I got the bass it was owned by a smoker. It has been cleaned and gigged and has lived in a smoke free environment for some time. The only trades I’d consider are for a Fender black and maple US P bass of a similar era or a US Musicman Sterling with a maple board. I’d prefer personal pickup so you can check it out, however if that’s impossible I can send it in the UK only at buyer’s expense as it’s cased and I have a decent box.

Oh come on guys, you knew I was going to buy it all along, didn't you? 🙄😂

Here is my excellent 2013 Squier Mike Dirnt in Arctic white. It's a really lovely light, well balanced and great sounding and playing bass. It has the following: Seymour Duncan SPB 3 pickups 0.47 paper in oil capacitor Full size Alpha pots Witches hat control knobs Rosewood Fretboard Agathis body I'm based in Catterick Village, North Yorkshire and would prefer cash on collection. I'm also happy to pack it properly for shipping but it's better if the buyer arranges their own courier. No trades thanks. I would like £250, no offers please.

Tough crowd! This is now on hold.

awesome bass - I have one in a natural finish. These basses have that famous Spector tone in spades! The SSD logo and Stuart Spector Design Ltd. written on the truss rod cover would suggest this is from 1995-1996. The 96 Spector catalogue shows the same bass featuring the Spector logo on the headstock and Spector written on the TRC. I could be wrong though as I am not an expert by any means.

Now sold pending I'm selling this one-off Custom built non-reverse Thunderbird, bought from @silverfoxnik back in the summer. This bass has something of a history among the BC community as it was built by the Bass Doc using a Bachbird mahogany body blank, with a rosewood board, two-part Bach bridge, Gotoh GB528 res-o-lite tuners and Thunderbucker '66 pickups. The finish is a matt off-white which is nicely going 'ivory' with age The neck is slim and fast and the pick ups are wonderfully punchy and deep - somewhere between a stingray and a p bass with a touch of grand piano thrown in. It comes in a very well fitting TKL hard case As usual, I'm gassing for a something else and as this isn't my gigging bass I'm putting up for sale I'm in Nottingham, so meet up within reasonable distance is possible. I'll be in High Wycombe on the weekend of the 16/17/18 Feb so could meet within a reasonable distance of there if that helps. It would be possible to deliver but I'd prefer to use the delivery guy @walshy uses and recommends. Delivery costs to be covered by the buyer Here is the original build thread
