Another long overdue bump - as much as I’d like to keep this, the Mrs insists otherwise! £225 delivered.

Long overdue bump! Still here!

NOW SOLD Hi, Bought this on a whim from eBay as I really fancied trying one. Lovely bass, made in Japan I believe somewhere between late ‘80s - early ‘90s. I believe there is a way to check with the serial number, alas I haven’t been able to find it. These retailed for quite a bit IIRC when new, the 2nd hand prices really don’t reflect the quality of these. Really well built instruments. This is a 5 string SB310 range, it has a brass nut with quality Gotoh tuners, all original. In great condition other than a small mark at the back of the headstock (shown in pics). Other than this it’s in great condition, especially for its age. I haven’t done anything to it except play it since I bought it so could probably do with a fresh set of strings of your preference and a set up. Comes with used but perfectly usable hard case. Reason for sale is that it’s just not getting played, don’t think the Mrs is very happy with it being bought and just sat there! Don’t want to make anything on this of course, I bought it for £250 including postage but happy to take £225 posted. EDIT: now £215 posted. Any questions, please ask via PM. Cheers!

Bump - still here. Comes with non Spector but functional hard case also.

Hi, yes I did the pickup work myself. No modifications necessary to the body as the dimensions are exactly the same as the original Hz pickups. The preamp is the older style BQC, I emailed EMG to confirm this is the same as the newer style “quik connect” system, but soldered connections all round. The pickups were brand new and do have the “quik connect” connections - so I used the connectors that came with the pickups instead of the original input wires on the preamp. The idea for this was so if I decided after the pickups were installed I wanted them the other way around, they are much easier to swap also worth mentioning, configuration of knobs is volume/volume with a stacked knob for treble/bass and another for mid cut or boost/sweepable mid frequency. Any other questions let me know! Thanks

Price drop! £775

Another bump - pretty much Euro spec at a Rebop price!! As stated above unfortunately I could do with the money at the moment, so if no interest this week I’ll list on eBay too after the weekend.

Bump - still here!

Quick price drop bump for arrival of yet more unexpected expense. Open to offer, no trades thank you. £800

Updated with pics!

Hi guys, Unfortunately as we all know life gets in the way sometimes and I’m giving up playing for a while. New car acquisition and general family expenses means I’m (reluctantly) selling my last remaining bass, as could really do with the cash at the moment! 2013ish Spector Rebop DLX 5 string in cherry red. I took out the rather bland passive EMG Hz pickups and replaced them with an active EMG 40DC in the bridge position, and an active EMG 40CS in the neck. I’ve also replaced the original tone pump pre with an EMG BQC system wired at 18v. The original pot covers were a little plasticky looking, so I replaced those as well with some rather fetching black metal ones. All in all I’ve spent around £230 in upgrades I think, well worth the money in my opinion - sounds fantastic. In great condition, neck plays like a dream. I’ll be sorry to see it go, but she’s too nice an instrument to be sat in a case unplayed. Can pick up in person if you’d like a cup of tea and a play - only have access to my little practice amp at home though. Alternatively I’d be willing to meet you halfway within reason. There’s also the option of a courier - this isn’t included in the price above. Having camera issues momentarily! But pics to follow shortly. Thanks for looking! [UPDATE] My camera is not working so phone pics will have to do for now I’m afraid. If you’d like any more, PM me and I will send you some. Thanks!

****NOW SOLD**** Just putting the feelers out there. It's a stunning bass, all the Warwick growl you'd expect - just fancy a change (I have these silly ideas now and again!) 5 string, Made in Germany in 2003. Streamer shape swamp ash/AA flamed maple body, nirvana black (dark grey) natural oil finish, ovangkol neck, wenge fretboard, bell brass frets, Warwick 3D 2 piece bridge, Warwick Just-A-Nut 3. MEC humbucker and single coil pickups, MEC 3 band active preamp with series humbucker/ single coil/ parallel humbucker 3-way switch for the bridge pickup. Looks the part, plays and sounds great - cutting through the mix is never an issue! This was my main gigging bass and has a few small dents and marks but nothing major, generally in great condition. Includes Warwick Rockcase hard case, and Warwick User Kit - user manual, cleaning cloth, full pot of wax and all Allen keys included in this. Plus Warwick strap with Schaller strap locks. Also have original tags with serial numbers etc. Located in Bridlington, East Yorkshire but willing to travel within reason. Open to ideas for trades, I'm more of a Spector man than a Warwick one but anything considered really. Try me! Will upload pics when not posting from my phone! EDIT: Added more pics this morning.

Mates rates? 😉

[b][u]NOW SOLD[/u][/b] Regrettably, up for sale is my Sire Marcus Miller V7 5 string. Bought earlier this year (April I think), one of the first run of these - unfortunately I wasn't lucky enough to get one of the ones signed by the man himself! This is a great instrument in very good condition, which unfortunately has been mostly sat in it's case since I bought my Warwick. Since my gig schedule is rather lacking at the moment I can't justify owning it as a backup. Only gigged twice and spent it's life in a hard case! Will be posted well packaged in it's original box. Postage is included in the price of [s]£285[/s] [b]£265[/b], and will come well packaged in it's original box. Of course collection would be welcome from Bridlington, East Yorkshire - price [b]£240[/b] without postage. Alder body, 34" scale C shape maple neck, 20 frets. 46mm nut width. The onboard preamp (called the Heritage 3 I believe) on these basses is fantastic. Stacked pots with bass boost/cut, sweepable mid boost/cut and treble boost/cut. Any questions please PM me. Thanks for looking! More pics to follow.
