Up for sale is my beloved Riki, year of manufacture is 2010. great condition for year, usual dings as shown in the photos. As you can see I have replaced the scratch plate and the truss rod cover, which was hand made by a company in the U.S.A, but obviously I still have the white originals. Plays great, and I am always complimented on the sound that this bass produces, dual truss rods are all working and I will include a special truss rod tool that you can use to adjust if required. it is supplied with the original hard case and candy that was included in the original sale. reluctant sale, no trades, no offers. thanks for looking, any questions please ask. Thank you

*** Now Traded *** Hi Folks, Heavily modified 70s MIJ Maya Jazz 'Stealth Bass' , with John Birch pick-ups For Sale. Back in January, I was scouring the internet as you do, looking for an unusual bass to buy, and this one caught my eye on Gumtree. It's a heavily modified 70s Maya Jazz Bass (which in itself is a good thing IMHO) that has been turned into a 'Stealth Bass', complete with a body refinish in a kind of satin black (that's almost impossible to photograph), and kitted out with all black hardware, which I think looks great with the maple neck and black block inlays. The most interesting of all those mods are the two John Birch pick ups, which are not only very unusual, but super-loud and sound great! The guy I bought it from who had all the work done, said he wanted the loudest, punchiest sounding pick-ups he could find, so he chose these... There seems to be a lot of mystique around John Birch pick-ups, and I have to confess, I don't know much of the background .. But these pick ups - set up in a simple V/V/T configuration - really are quite different sounding to me.. Too my ears, they're much more like a proper vintage Thunderbird than a Jazz Bass, but there's a fab, old-skool, Motown tone to be had too from the neck pick up and, when balanced so that the bridge pick is more prominent, the sound reminds me a little of my old Wal Pro IIE basses.. I'm not 100% sure, but I think these are John Birch Hyperflux pick-ups.. See here for more details.. https://www.seymourduncan.com/blog/swd/years-ago-i-heard-of-a-company-out-of-birmingham-england-that-made-guitars-and-many-models-of-pickups-who-was-it-and-what-kind-of-pickups-did-they-make-lewis-harley-isle-of-sky-scotland And there's more info on John Birch as a luthier, and his pick up designs, here: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Birch_(luthier) (I've included a couple of photos of basses fitted with John Birch pick-ups for reference..) When I bought it, the bass played well and sounded really good to my ears, but I was convinced that the bridge was slightly out of alignment. So, I took it to our very own @gary mac, who did an excellent job of moving the bridge 2mm, and giving the bass a good set up with a set of D'Addario NYXL strings... The action is set now at what I would call medium height , and the neck plays really well.. However, the truss rod is working as it should, so a lower action could definitely be achieved on this bass if required. Weight is 4.6kg (10.14 lbs). As quirky and cool as this bass is, I find myself still defaulting to either my G&L SB1 or my BC Rich Eagle when playing, so this is just not getting used.. Hence why, as part of my gear clear out, I've decided to put it up for sale. Hard to put a value on this, but it owes me the best part of £400, so I'm offering it for sale at Now Traded. Try out welcome and collection preferred from Potton, near Sandy in Bedfordshire, but postage is possible at buyers expense and risk. Please note that I don't have a case for this, but I would ensure that it is very well packaged up for shipping. Having said that, I do have a nice tweed Thomann case that could be included at an additional cost.. Any questions, please ask here or send me a PM and I'll do my best to answer them. Thanks for looking.. 😊 Nik

For sale Origin Bassrig Super Vintage, Ampeg SVT in a box, 1 month old, never used. Unwanted gift. collection welcome UK delivery £10 SOLD based in Reading The BASSRIG Super Vintage is, quite simply, a complete vintage bass amp in a pedal. Based on the iconic Ampeg® SVT®, we have used all-analogue circuitry to recreate a complete valve amp-style signal path, along with an all-analogue cabinet simulator, giving you all the warmth, feel and drive of this classic bass rig in one small box. When the SVT® arrived on the scene in 1969, it rewrote the rulebook for purpose-built bass amplification. Thanks to its enormous power, deep bass, growling overdrive and purposeful control set, this tower of tone has remained the amp of choice for the most discerning bassists on the world’s biggest stages. With XLR and ¼” outputs, the BASSRIG Super Vintage will fit seamlessly into any signal chain, no matter how simple or complex, and our powerful Amp Out EQ tailors your sound to work with any amp, meaning you never have to compromise on tone.

Selling my Sandberg Basic Ken Taylor - a five-string active bass in a subtle and fetching blackburst. I'm not sure what year it is - 2005-ish? Serial number is 2250. Six bolt neck joint, textured grain pattern, German engineering, Delano pickups. Weight is about 4.5kg (10lb). 34" scale length. Zero fret. Controls: Volume, pickup pan, bass, middle, treble, active/passive switch and coil split switch. It's in absolutely superb condition. I can only find two very minor blemishes (shown in ultra close-up, but barely visible unless you're looking for them). It didn't come with a case or even a gig bag, but I'm including a Hiscox P/J hardcase. It's not a tight fit, but it does offer decent protection. I've come to the conclusion that I need to keep it simple when it come to basses - four-strings and passive! I'd strongly prefer for the buyer to collect (we've all heard the postage horror stories). I'm in Hampshire and can meet up at a local train station (Havant, Petersfield) or drive a not-too-crazy distance. If postage is the only option, let me know and we can sort something out (at extra cost to the buyer).

That looks so cool...but bizarrely I don't know why my first thought (seriously) was that it should have a red light on it that travels left to right, it should be renamed KITT, and have a Turbo Boost button added somewhere.
