Need this gone folks so im taking roughly 10% off the asking price, I can also accept a holding deposit to allow the new buyer some time to pay, Now only £5950, has to be a bargain for this lovely vintage P bass I had no intention of ever selling this for a good few years at least but due to a big domestic change in my life I have no choice as I need to raise the much needed funds.... So I acquired this from the owner who had bought it in 1968 and used it up until 2000 or so and in 2014 decided to get it re-fretted and finished in its original colour of Fiesta Red I have the invoice from Ray Cooper Guitars in Herts outlining the work he carried out Body striped and refinished Neck striped and refinished and refretted, new logo Changed out the pots and new pickguard fitted and pickguard screws changed The original scratchplate is there with the metal plate that was under it but he had his name ( Brian ) properly etched below the thumbrest I had bought a 60's Plate that I got from walshy and used that instead The new pots have now been replaced with a set of 1966 ones with the proper tone cap, not cheap.. The tuners have now got a set of 1962 Klusons fitted as the previous owner didnt like the reverse ones and installed the later models It has been refinished to a very high standard and the neck is just sublime with a lovely flame at the back, weight is 3.55 Kg's One of the leads came off the back of the pickup when dismanteled but has now been resoldered on The previous owner did not play it at all since it was refinished so that is why he decided to sell and enjoy his retirement This work cost £1080 in total, invoice will be in the case The Fender case is from 1968 and is in a s new condition with the locking key , it was kept in a bag under the bed and never used Just a few pics now but I will upload a lot more tomorrow I have priced this due to the refinish and the non original pots but I know that the new owner will not be dissapointed, it really is a cracking bass Serious offers will be considered, case can be removed from the sale to help reduce the price if that helps. Any questions guys please fire away

Shergold Marathon Mk1 1976 UK Made Here is another bass I’m selling on. It’s a very early Shergold Marathon in black finish. You can see it’s an early one as it has the Hayman 40/40 type neck with pinned on logo and black circular plug at the rear and trussrod adjustment at the back of the body under the serial plate. It also has a large black scratch plate to cover what would have been a larger rout for the bigger Hayman pickup assembly. This is a hand made bass and has an amazing slim neck, it’s also got the best flamed figuring I’ve ever seen on a Shergold bass - just lovely. The bass is all original apart from the pots, these have been swapped out for a simple volume and tone control. Originally it would’ve been a stereo bass with a switch to disable the stereo. At some point a coil tap has been fitted and then disabled. The switch has been removed and the hole plugged with a plastic cap. The bass sounds fantastic and is very versatile. The Shergold pickups are powerful and articulate. They were quite a ‘name brand’ in the 70’s and 80’s played by such diverse musicians as Peter Hook, Mike Rutherford and Julian Cope. They have subsequently become a respected and sought after brand and recently revived in the UK. This one has evidence of lacquer cracking as is common with the brand and looks to have been oversprayed. There are paint touch ups here and there too. When I got it it had binding hanging off as the glue had dried out and the frets needed reseating. Now it plays very well and is strung with D’Addario 40-100s. There was a diagonal slot in the board near the highest fret and a small screw hole touched up with paint and another slot cut into the binding. Not sure what this was for - possibly a midi pickup? It wasn’t impact damage as it had been deliberately created, it didn’t cause any issues however I had it filled. It’s a little headstock heavy thanks to those 70’s stock tuners but does balance okay on a strap. It weighs 3.7kgs so very light and perfect for long gigs. A classic UK made bass with Burns lineage. Sorry no trades and UK only. Pickup preferred but I could be persuaded to post at buyer’s cost.

For sale is my awesome 1989 Fender PB57-90 made at FujiGen. E- serial. Neck date is 6.2.89. Alder body with factory (!) nitro finish and USA electronics. Pickups and CTS pots dated 1982. The maple neck is dead straight and has a comfortable shallow C profile. Nut width is 42.86mm. Play wear on body - nothing major. Back of the neck is clean and free from dings or divots. Pickguard is s Fender American Standard one, which fitted perfectly and did not require new holes. Its the only non-stock part but I have the original white one and will be sold with the bass. Strung with LaBella LTFs. Exceptionally well made bass - love everything about it except the fact it’s 34” scale. Interested in trade for JMJ Mustang - preferably black finish.

Hi everyone. I bought this great passive bass ( Vol Vol Tone ) new from GuitarGuitar in Feb 2017. Serial Number 160304485 - see headstock edge photo. Only occasional playing at home so no noticeable wear apart from very slight signs on some frets under the E string frets 3 to 7 ish. Only noticed this when packing and polishing the frets, oiling the board. It still has the Lakland ST/ST 45 65 85 105 round wound strings on and they’re still lively and seem to suit these powerful pickups. I don’t use st/st on my other basses but I’d stick with them on this bass. Superb P pickup and a great tone control for lots of very useable tones. I had the 3 pots upgraded to the more durable CTS pots on the advice of Steve Barratt at guitarlodge.co.uk nearby in Felixstowe. CTS are 1/4 inch shafts so Steve drilled out and shimmed the original knobs, just this year so this bass is ready to rock. It’s a dense Ash body so 10lb 5oz / 4.6kg but nicely balanced and you get the advantage of super clear tones and sustain. These earlier years of the 44-64 have the lovely white neck binding and full white pearl blocks on a super dark rosewood board in this case. The more recent years version don’t have the binding , just a dark abalone corner to each block. The pickups and hardware are the same as on Lakland’s USA models. They’re shipped back to Chicago for checking and Pleking of the fretboard ( computer aided machine levelling process using sensors to eliminate even the slightest high spots of the frets ). See photo of Plek Tag 25 May 2016. I’ve packed it up already in inner cardboard coffin type box, then packed well in usual large outer box. Please see my feedback - when 8 say MINT I mean No blemishes or swirls or tiny marks or dinks etc. Thought I was going to send it off for commission sale but decided not to, hence packed already and hence less than tip top photos but I think they show what you need. There are some pics in a low sun from last week and the bright ones were taken by GGuitar in Birmingham for me to verify it was a pukker example I was buying ( I sent two back.) Make me a sensible offer and it’s yours. You will not be disappointed! ( UK delivery only , on me.) Only selling as I’ve enjoyed it for nearly 7 years and have recently splashed out on other basses which need funding. Specs then photos.

GORGEOUS shell pink p bass originally from walshy. Alder body, slab design with a very light relic (I believe by Dave Wilson). This was my first proper p and it’s wonderful. I did make some changes: Original neck swapped for a Nate Mendel. It’s worn but in a good way and suits the bass much better imo. tort plate one of the badass saddles developed a problem so I replaced with hipshot kickass saddles. Gives the advantage of adjustment to the spacing as well Weight is a tad over 9lbs. Pickup a fender 62. Cts pots. Shipping is an option….
