Hi folks, for sale is my wonderful Adamovic Soul 5 from 2024. I bought it from Bass Freaks in Belgium. I have to thin out the herd and that‘s why I want to sell some basses. After years of buying, selling and trading it‘s time to "settle down" with just a 2 or 3 basses. This bass is in super condition with just only minor signs of wear, but no big scratches, marks, dings or dongs. I played it for some rehearsals and a few gigs. Electronics and truss-rod work with no issues. Frets are in very good condition, too. Comes with a high quality gig or a Hiscox case as you prefer. Here are the specs: Scale: 34'' Top-Wood: Quilted maple, hardended Color: Pistachio green Body-Wood: Red Alder Neck-wood: Maple/wenge Fingerboard: Rosewood Inlay: Edge inlay, glow in the dark Tuners: Hipshot ultralites Bridge: Hipshot A style Pickups: Jazz, slanted Electonics: Glockenklang, 3-band Pick up is preferred, but we can arrange shipping to buyer's expense and risks. Maybe we can meet in person somewhere on half distance. If you need more pictures let me know. No warranty, no return and no guarantee because I am a private seller. But all informations is provided to the best of my knowledge and belief. I am open to trade, but there are only a few basses that I am interested in. Maybe Adamovic 6 String, Mattison; but you can try to lead my into temptation. (In case of trading we have to meet in person, no shipping!) Here is a video with a sound sample: IMG_3722.heic

FINAL PRICE £1450 Selling this lovely bass with a heavy heart. Gigged a couple of times but mostly used for Studio work. As much as I want to keep it, I need to sell this beauty as we are expecting our 2nd baby and I just paid for my ILR Visa so need to recoup some funds. Bought new from BassDirect this June. No mods, only thing I changed are the strings to La Bella Low Tension Flats. Bass weighs at 3.9kgs. I sold the original gig bag thinking I would never sell it but life happens so yeah. For collection only at SW19 area so please bring your own Gig bag/case. Willing to sell it with the Mono Vertigo for an additional £150 if needed. Collection only at SW19 or can meet somewhere in London on schedule. Any questions, feel free to message me.

Your chance to own a piece of UK amplification history - a lovely AH250 Amp with the classic GP12 SMX Pre-amp. This one is equipped with a heat sink rather than a fan so is quiet enough for a studio but most definitely loud enough to gig with. It encompasses two pre shapes, blendable valve and Solid State pre's and dual band compression. In good order with everything working, comes in a tolex covered heavy duty sleeve. Note - one of the bolts that holds the amp in the sleeve is missing. There's some velcro stuck to the top of the sleeve. Looking for collection from Milton Keynes on this one - would be prepared to drive a reasonable distance for fuel. £250 and it's yours!

Fender Precision Bass 1978 Natural Finish Lightweight with Gig Bag I’ve reduced the price to encourage a quick sale. I doubt you will get as nice and light an example of a classic Fender Precision from this era. I’m also interested in a straight swap for a Rickenbacker model 4003 or 4003s. Thanks for looking. Fantastic Fender Precision bass from the late 70’s the only non-original part is the pickup which is a noughties US Fender wired to a series parallel switch. The pots, wiring, and hardware all original. You can see there’s currently a D tuner on it but if it sells I’ll return it to stock as I have the original tuner. The bass is factory natural with nicely grained wood. It’s light at around 3.7kgs - amazing for a bass of this era and the neck is slim with a shallow profile. There are the usual ID marks and sticker under the scratchplate with serial number matching the headstock. Sadly no case but I have a light modern Fender gigbag for it or if you prefer a scruffy heavier duty generic one. The bass balances really well and plays easily. There is lacquer wear at the upper bout and the finish has crazed over time. The finish is rubbed to near bare wood in places but it is honest wear and not particularly bothersome. You can feel the crazing when you rest your forearm on the edge, it didn’t irritate me when playing live. Great opportunity to buy a lightweight 70’s classic Fender. I’m sorry but the only trades I may be interested in are for a Rickenbacker 4003/4003s or 4000. Pickup preferred but I can post if absolutely necessary. UK only. Bit of an update I’ve replaced the Hipshot D tuner with the original Fender and it is now strung with TI flats. Sounds great! Set up with an easy low action.

Hi folks, for sale is my awesome Ken Smith BT 5 from 1990. I got it here on basschat a few years ago. I have to thin out the herd and that‘s why I want to sell some basses. After years of buying, selling and trading it‘s time to "settle down" with just a 2 or 3 basses. This bass is in good - very good condition for its age, but has some dings or dongs as you can see on the pictures. The bass has been played, some folks see it as an advantage, others as a disadvantage. Electronics and truss-rod work with no issues. Frets are in very good condition, too. Comes with a non-original case, unfortunately I have no papers. Here are the specs I got from Ken Smith: Mahagony core Lacewood body/back, maple veneers Maple/Morado Neck Ebony fingerboard Neck-Through Weight 4,4 kg I replaced the original tuners ( I still have got them) with lighter tuners if you are playing standing up there is still a light neck diving because of the old BT form Pick up is preferred, but maybe I can arrange shipping to buyer's expense and risks. Problem is that there is limit for insurancy with most postal services. Maybe we can meet in person somewhere on half distance. If you need more pictures let me know. No warranty, no return and no guarantee because I am a private seller. But all informations is provided to the best of my knowledge and belief. I am open to trades, but there are only a few basses that I am interested in. Maybe Adamovic 6 String, Mattison; Ken Smith BSR 6 String, but you can try to lead my into temptation. (In case of trading we have to meet in person, no shipping!) Price is 5500 Euro. IMG_3017.heic

Fabulous amps. I still have mine which sadly hasn’t been used above bedroom levels for 7 years now, yet I’m still tempted to buy another. The only amp you’d ever need to my mind, amazing power with endless tone options. GLWTS

For Sale: 1995 MusicMan Stingray 2EQ "Velvet Satin" Ltd Edition in Natural Ash with Aguilar Pickup & Aguilar OBP-2 Preamp. I'll start by saying that this is the best Stingray I've ever played/heard (and I recently owned a nearly new Stingray Special 5 amongst several others in the past.) It has a beautifully satin lacquer finished (not gunstock oiled, thankfully!) slim neck, and the punch/tone from the Aguilar OBP-2 Preamp & Aguilar AG4M pickup are second to none. I had the Aguilar pickup reinstalled earlier this year, which is voiced like a late seventies model. (There is a routing for a single coil under the scratch plate as well, as this bass was previously modified into a HS by a previous owner - this means it has four controls, but the second knob only blends to a single coil on the Humbucker.). This Ash bodied Stingray is also very light, at around 8.8lbs. Condition wise, I would give it a solid nine out of ten. It has the odd tiny, almost invisible ding, but this is in remarkable order for a 30 year old bass. Also, 30 year old Ash/Maple also resonates like you wouldn't believe. It has sustain for days. The bass comes complete with a 2005 MM Anniversary brown Hard Shell Case with gold interior & an unused spare String Mute kit from Bass Direct. Price is £1550, interesting trades considered. Buyer to collect from Derbyshire DE7, or will meet half way up to 100 miles. (Up to 200 miles total distance.)
