Selling my Mayones Cali 4 mini bass. I bought it last year as I'd planned to be away for work more but it never came to be so its been sat in its case untouched with the exception of me filming one youtube video which I'll link so you can see clearly how it looks/sounds. Its great for having downstairs if you just want to chill on the sofa, for travel, you can even gig it if you like. I bought an octave pedal with it which sounded great but never ended up gigging it. If you told someone you bought this bass brand new they'd believe you, that's the condition it's in. Will post photos of the instrument, the certificate from Mayones and the spec sheet from them which should have all the details you need. Edit: this has both 3 band pre amp and headphone output. Early models came with one or the other, this has both! This is the only cali 4 I've seen where they've added multiple accents to the body. The level of craftsmanship is absolutely fantastic. Youtube video - what you hear is the bass recorded direct into garage band with no post-EQ. Sad to see it go but I'm fancying an old fender Jazz or Stingray and this little chap gets the least use! As for shipping I'd prefer to have it collected or me to drop it off. If necessary I will ship at buyers expense. These are £1450+ brand new so given its condition I feel £1200 is a fair price. Sturdy mayones gig bag included. Any questions give me a shout! Cheers, Danny

Hi Folks. Up for sale here, we have a wonderful handbuilt bass, by master luthier Roman Koc of GMR in Poland. Overall condition is very good, A few dings here and there on the back of the body.. 34 inch scale. 38mm nut. Lightweight, I don't have scales but less than 4Kg Transparent Black Flame maple top and headplate. 3 piece flame maple neck with walnut stringers. Maple fretboard. Black Ash body.. Delano jazz pickups. Nordstrand 2 band preamp, 9V Active/passive, push/pull volume control. Balance control. Bass control. Treble control. ABM bridge. Gotoh style tuners. Semi rigid case. The bass plays and sounds fantastic. Mega punchy, with slim and fast neck profile.. non original truss rod cover..one small screw missing on bridge, to hold saddle in place..but doesn't move..can be replaced.. GMR basses don't come up that often for the simple reason they are that good..I also have a GMR bassforce 4 string which is going nowhere!!.lol This is a bargain price! Any questions please ask.. Cheers

Passive OLP Stringray 5 String clone in very good condition. £250 collected, Chorley Lancashire e or can post for £25. OLP manufactured these licensed from Ernie Ball MM. Great Stingray banger with a good range of tones available, actually gets close to a Stingray sound well. Finished in lovely blue sparkle finish, which is difficult to capture in the photos. I believe the spec is: Features: Elm body North American Maple neck Maple fingerboard 21 jumbo frets 34" scale Black dot fret markers Chrome hardware Open gear machine heads Music Man-style humbucker One tone and 2 volume controls

1994 Ernie Ball Sterling USA 4H. £1200 collected or near meet Orpington BR6. Generally fantastic condition for age. Beautiful sunburst and Birds Eye maple figuring. A few things to note: At least two of the tuners look ever so slightly bent (the bit you hold to turn). There’s a patch of finish damage under the pickguard near the neck which looks like it’s been glued back. Was like it when I got it so not sure how it’s been done. Small scratch on pickguard which goes to body. Fairly light and looks to be in top coat only. Some very minor marks to body consistent with normal use. Comes with an old and tatty but functional hard case. UK Postage considered if no “local” interest. Weight to follow. Any questions or if more pics are needed, fire away. No trades or offers at the moment, thanks!

Now £2000 with free mainland UK shipping I may live to regret this but up for sale is my Vigier Passion IV (2020). What is there to say about these basses. They have a very loyal and passionate (pun intended) following here on Basschat, and with very good reason. The proprietary pickups in their ‘bridge-biased’ position provide untold amounts of punch. The 3-band preamp also gives you access to a huge amount of different tones, so chances are that whatever style of music you’re playing you’ll find the right sound here. This bass cuts through the mix like no-one’s business, is super comfortable to play and has the best finish of any instrument I’ve laid my hands on. There are a couple of slightly uncommon features on this bass that are also worth highlighting. The first is that there is no truss rod. This is because the neck is made from phenowood – that is, wood injected with a phenolic resin which means that the neck doesn’t move as a result of temperature or environment changes. So no more worrying about bowed necks or fiddly setups! The other cool feature is the locking input jack. Once your cable is plugged in it’s not going anywhere, so you’re unlikely to suffer from loose connections or accidentally pulling your cable out mid-set. Other specs are (taken from the Vigier website): Neck Wood : Maple naturally dried for 3 years Shape : D Finish : Glossy Width of neck at nut : 40 mm/1.57 " Width of neck at last fret : 56,4mm / 14.32 " Depth of neck at first fret : 19,5mm / .76 " Depth of neck at 12th fret : 23mm / .90 " String spacing at nut : 31,5 mm / 1.24 " String spacing at bridge : 53 mm / 2.125 " Action as supplied at 12th fret, treble : 1.8 mm / .0709 " Action as supplied at 12th fret, bass : 2.3mm / .0906 " Type of nut : Teflon nut + hardened zero fret technology Fingerboard Wood : Phenowood Radius : 300mm/11.81 " Type of frets : Medium Number of frets : 24 Scale length : 860mm / 33.8 " Inlay : Dots Body Wood : Flamed maple / alder / flamed maple naturally aged Finish : Varnish dries for 5 weeks minimum Accessories Machine heads brand name : Schaller Type of bridge : One bridge per string End pin : Brass casing that inserts deep into the body and locks the strap button in place Finish : Chrome Electronics Pickup brand name : Vigier Type of pickup : Single, twin coil in line Switch : Balance Controls : Volume Balance Bass Medium Treble Shielding : Conductive paint Miscellaneous Weight : 3,8Kg / 8.3lbs This bass is immaculate (to the extent the original stickers are still present!) – home use only and without any significant dings or scratches. The only reason I’m selling is because it’s not getting the attention it deserves and I could do with the cash for other things. I also believe that Patrice Vigier has now closed his order books as he is retiring – so short of keeping your fingers crossed and hoping one pops up for sale elsewhere, this is probably your best bet of getting a Passion IV in this condition for a good while, or maybe ever! No trades or offers please. Collection preferred as I would like you to try before you buy. I can also offer excellent, in-person bass chat (another pun intended) and as much tea/coffee as you desire if you make the effort to come and see me. However I am willing to ship if preferred - please contact me to discuss though as I will need to arrange. Also feel free to check out my feedback here and approach me with confidence 😊
