Back again after sale fell through….. Sad to see this go after so many years. I just don’t play it enough to warrant keeping such a lovely beast in captivity. There is a small chunk at the top of the neck ( pictured) and a small bash on the neck ( pictured) along with a couple of marks on the lower body ( pictured) but in the main in fabulous condition for a 25 year old instrument. Electrically no issues comes with the standard Status monogrammed Hiscox case. Sounds thunderous but alas not my instrument of choice any more. Any queries don’t hesitate to shoot me a message. Available for collection in London weekdays and some weekends of at my home in Kings Lynn most weekends. I will courier but really at this level you don’t wanna be chancing such a beauty to the postman! Cash is king but will consider interesting part ex ( USA /Japanese Precision or similar is Favourite) up to half the value.

Sad to see this go after so many years. I just don’t play it enough to warrant tieing up this much cash that I could be giving the energy companies instead😣. There is a small chunk at the top of the neck ( pictured) and a small bash on the neck ( pictured) along with a couple of marks on the lower body ( pictured) and it’s picking up a little white floss around the bridge ( pictured ) but in the main in fabulous condition for a 25 year old instrument.

Now listed on the evil bay too Cheers Craig

Pm,d

Sometimes you gotta haul for tone! It's not too bad actually.....😁

Not a neo got a conventional ferrite Celestion in now but still not too bad weight but increased wattage!

Apologies for the delay in responding been a busy week. Dimensions 60 × 50 x 40 cm. Weight is : 16.2 KG

Oops I saw Nottingham... Sorry fella.

Not really in retested in shipping. where are you? Yes 8 ohm.

Trace Acoustic combo amp 100 watts 1990,s Vintage Made in UK. Not the Peavey built stuff, original UK. This is the non reverb version ( you can put one in the effects loop if you so desire, I've never found the need) State of the art in its day sounds as good as new. Never been gigged just used for rehearsal and at home. Bargain! Collection preferred but can post at buyers expense!

Zoom B1 Bass Effects pedal with built in Drum Machine. Loads of great amp emulations ( Hartke,Ampeg,Trace Elliot,Fender Bassman,, Acoustic,Gallien Krugeur and more) with distortion, octaver, synth,compression . Fabulous to practice along with headphones too as well as Live use . Improve your tone today for just a few quid! Bargain! Will post for a fiver!

Compact bass cab ( not back breaking) 1x15 (upgraded from original 200w to 300 watt Celestion speaker.) Easy load in and carry. Grab a bass bargain

Old SM7 pedal from the 90's (?). In rough working condition with a few niggles. 1) the faders are extremely stiff to move. ( Contact cleaner/lubricant may help here) 2) the first position of the preshape switch ( pre shape 1 or out) doesn't seem make a sound. ( Maybe needs cleaning/ changing the switch) Pre Shape 2 ( in) position works fine 3) Battery power doesn't seem to work. This is moot as the included 18v supply will power the unit just fine. Maybe a loose solder joint inside? It comes on its own mounted wooden board with plug extension. I'm just looking to recover some of the cash spent getting it ( the PSU alone was £25.00) Any further queries shoot me a message. It's really a project for someone although I did a few gigs with it recently so if you can live with the niggles it does work as it is. Postage will be £10

Fab!

Studio monitors. Active speakers. Integral gel speaker isolator feet... Brand new in box. Bought as backup set but the other set never broke....never deployed just kept in the box in the spare room. Well thought of and not available for years. Cost over £200 new. Grab yourself a bargain! Also includes brand new unused Superlux HD681 Studio Monitor Headphones! Can post £15 insured.....

Lovely metallic blue finish. Great starter or beater bass. I bought it recently for exactly that purpose and put some hours into tidying it up and put a brand new set of Fender strings (0045 medium gauge). It plays very well, medium action. I've been spoilt by my main bass (a Status Empathy 5) and can't get on with the spacing on the neck. There are a few dings and swirls ( pictured) but nothing that stops the show Comes with a reasonably tatty but emininently usable Ritter gig bag. Great Precision sound for not a lot of cash. Can ship at buyer expense within the UK. I'll ensure its well packed and can remove the neck for additional safety..... But would prefer a meet either here at home in Norfolk ( unlikely I know 😆) or at a station in London ( I work there 4 days a week) that way we're eliminating couriers that have probably had a bad day as it's super busy now for xmas and have reached the end of their patience.

Thanks Mike!

Could be... Thanks!

Sorry let me confirm that properly. Looking down at the bass controls from your playing position... in a left to right direction....Volume, PICKUP Balance, Mid Choke ( mid cut) , and finally the control nearest the Jack socket is a conventional ( passive) Tone control which rolls off the treble. Hope that's clearer.

Yes it's Volume, Balance, Mid Choke, Tone control.

Thank you. Maybe you can clear up who makes the machines on this. They feel great but I have no idea of their origin...😀

OVERVIEW: Lovely example of some of Jon's more traditional work. It's kitted out with the superb Villex Pickups , great as they add a mid-choke in addition to the more traditional hi-choke afforded by conventional passive basses. The Mid Choke enables a smiley eq curve to be achieved with out the noise of an active preamp. This thing has Marcus tone for days...and no batteries required. It also comes with a Genuine Hipshot D tuner, great for those moments when you need to drop the E down to plumb the sonic depths available below conventional tuning. I'm not utterly sure about the reverse machine head origins. I know Jon uses Schaller and Hipshot currently but I don't know if this was the case back then. ABM maybe? There are a few dings on the bottom underside of the bass ( picture) genuine use not designer road rash. There is a ding on the neck just north of the neck plate ( pictured) but due to the thick poly laquer it doesn't reach the wood below, but it's there. TONE: You can dial in Marcus tone Immediately. Especially if you tug on the mid choke. The front pickup gave me a particularly pleasing Robbie Shakespeare dub experience on a session recently. In essence the 70's Jazz tone is there in full effect. It's not a lightweight at 4.5 kg but not a backbreaker by any means. And I've done long gigs with it without issue ( not the same can be said of my go-to, a 5 string Status Empathy 😏) Any further questions ? Then feel free to drop me a line. I'm based in West Norfolk, but travel to London each week to work so pickup is available in two locations. I will post at buyers expense and will pack appropriately. Have a good week!

Immaculate condition hardly used ( I prefer the flexibility of Computer DAW to record these days) includes after market PSU and 32 GB SDHC card so you're ready to go no extras needed. Grab yourself a complete recording studio for £150! Norfolk or London pickup as I work in London. Can post for Cost....

Art Tube interface. Sounds great! Has built in opto compressor /limiter too Pickup in Kings Lynn or in London ( I travel there for work each week) or I can post well padded at your expense.

Battery contacts are corroded ( a relatively easy fix, never bothered me as I use the included aftermarket PSU) Works as perfectly today as it did in 1988. Take a trip down memory lane lol... Pickup from Kings Lynn or London ( I travel to work in London each week) or we padded post at your expense.
