  1. I bought this of ebay just because it looks so nice - it plays pretty well too. I am having to continue a purge of basses so a few more to go! I paid £290 for this about three months ago. It comes with a reasonable gig bag - It has not left my house and is in 10/10 condition - collection/viewing welcome - price £150 delivered. Any queries please pm

  2. What can I say?? I dont know how many deals we have done (4-5?) but every one a pleasure - I now have a top quality bass in my possession and have spent a good hour chatting to a top guy - I would recommend Steve to anyone considering a deal with him - great guy

    loundndclear now I know what you wanted the cash from your LM11 for!

    Yes - that - a few basses sold and currently stripping the lead of the roof of my house - just hope it doesnt rain for a while!

  4. Fender Precision 1970's reissue - Ash Body - US Spec Pickups - - I bought this from Ishibashi the week before they stopped shipping Fender Basses to the EU - It is a great very lite - classic precision sound - comes with a gig bag - one small issue is that access to the truss rod is at the heel of the neck eg you need to take the neck off now having several other basses where there is a neat 'groove' at this point allowing truss rod access I decided I could easily cut this myself allowing easy access if required- I started and then very quickly decided it wasnt a good idea. This doesnt affect playing at all and is very minor and could easily be finished by someone who knew what they were doing or hidden by a scratch plate - photos show all - this is the model that was on sale for £699 at guitar emporium - taking into account my small handy work and current market - price £300 delivered. I think this is fair - any comments on price welcome
    Collection / viewing welcome


    cheers

  5. Continuing a bit of a 'thinning' of the herd now so.... - Bought this a little while ago from BB2000 on the forum - again I bought it because it was just such a good price for such a lot of bass. It was primarily bought as a back up to take to gigs and has such is well travelled but not been out of its case more than 5 time since I bought it! it sounds great and here is the text from the original sale (hope this is ok BB!)

    "Only issue with this one is that one of the strap buttons has been moved by a previous owner, leaving an unfilled screwhole.

    These are superb basses - they were highly acclaimed when introduced, won numerous awards, and then Yamaha stopped production (go figure). They were Yamaha's only jazz style bass at the time and sold at a retail of about £800 in the UK (Yamaha's replacement jazz - only avaliable in Asia as far as I know retails for about the same). The nut width is about the same as a Fender B neck. PUPs are humbucking. Electronics are volume/pan/bass(cut/boost)/treble(cut/boost) and a 3 way mid selector which can be set using an internal potentiometer to give boost or cut. Really nice basses (as well as this one I have another pair owned from new). In my opinion these are better basses than any of the Skyline Lakland jazz offerings (yes, I've owned these as well). Any Q's give a shout."

  6. New Spector Euro LX - one of the Sound control jobs -bit of an impulse purchase just because the price was so good. Plays really well - the first bass I have had with EMG pick ups and it wont be the last. Not being used though so up for sale. I paid £500 for it so for sale at £500 (no trades - too many basses!) delivery included at £500. Comes with a padded gig bag and will be packed well for delivery. Welcome to try or collect with cash.

  7. I have the 12" walkabout and I have to say it is great - I would recommend you try if you can as the "bottom end" that comes from the 12" on its own is quite something to behold so if that is your reason for wanting the 15" I personally would say have a listen to the 12" combo. The other thing is that it will happily run at 2 ohms so again I would consider the 4 ohm version personally. The tone is great though and I doubt you will be disapointed whatever you do - you dont seem to see many second hand and I reckon that says a lot about how good they are

  8. As stated japanese built model - it has a really nice sound to it and is very versatile - it does have some knocks the worst of which is shown (next to the back plate ) in photos, but also has some light scratches and wear and tear but nothing of great significance and nothing that affects playing. It is a really well built bass the neck is great and as I said sounds great.
    I am thinking £300 delivered is a reasonable price but any constructive feedback on the price is welcome

    cheers
