Hi,
Now for sale only as I've just bought something else.
Special offer £750 if you buy before the end of March! Price will go back up to £850 if it doesn't sell.
Up for sale is my Lakland DJ 5. It's a really awesome jazz bass that sounds and plays amazing; the B-string is brilliant!
Made in Korea in
20092007Black Sparkle Finish
Maple fingerboard
19mm String Spacing
35" Scale
John East Preamp
9v Battery Box Mod on rear
Delano Pickups
Lakland gigbag
I think the weight is around 4.1kg but I will double check.
It's in good condition with light play wear, commensurate with its age, no major dings or damage.
I would be interested in trades for a decent 4-string Jazz (fretted or fretless) or a 6-string and I could add money for the right bass.The bass is currently with me in Edinburgh but I have a box and can post.

Hi,
Bass now sold.
Bit of a feeler but I'm putting this lovely Precision up for sale.
£1250£1150 O.N.O shippedTrades considered:
- Lakland 5-strings (DJ5, JO5/55-60)
- Hollow/Semi-hollow bodies
- Might be tempted with a nice 4-string Jazz
I bought it for a show over the summer but I only really play Jazz basses and this is not getting any use.
It's a 2021 model in excellent condition, currently wearing Dunlop strap buttons but I'll put the originals back on prior to sale.
I've installed a Hipshot D-tuner (original tuner included in sale) but I will sell for
£1200£1100 if you don't want it.- 6

Is it possible to pick this up closer to Bournemouth?
Sorry, I missed this.
I'm not sure if you are still interested but I could probably meet you half way or something; send me a message if you want to discuss.
Cheers,
Joe

Hi,
I have a very nice early 80’s Red MIJ Precision bass with custom Hot Rod pick ups.
Very even and fabulous recorded sound.
Would this be of interest?
Cheers
Don
Hi Don,
Thanks for your interest. That sounds like a great bass but I just bought an American Professional II yesterday. I'll update the ad to FS only shortly.
Cheers,

Hi,
I bought this from roceci a couple of months ago but I'm in need of a Pbass for a project so I'm putting it up for trade.It's a truly excellent bass; especially with the upgraded electronics. The B-string is ridiculous.
Comes with a Lakland branded gig bag and a spare off-white scratchplate.
I could potentially add cash for the right bass but hopeful for a straight swap.Sale price is £900 (firm).Currently based just outside Chichester.
(I'm borrowing roceci's ad until I can get some new pics up.)

Could this be a transaction which takes less than an hour?
I hope so! I owned this bass previously and regret letting it go; it's REALLY good.

Oooh! Y.O.B for me. Does the 6/83 mean June?
Very tempting...

That's right, no push-pull on the tone knob, just the switch.
The full controls are: VOL - BLEND - BASS/TREBLE (pull for bright) - FREQ SWEEP/MID - TONE - Active/Passive switch
The pickups are Aguilar 70's single coils.

Hi Terry,
The switch toggles between active and passive modes.

Hello,
I've seen another bass that I want so this is temporarily reduced to £1750 - if the other bass sells, this will go back up in price.
Up for grabs is my Mayones Jabba Custom BB5 2019 model. These are seriously good basses and this one is in excellent condition with just a few small knocks that I can find.
I'm only selling as I prefer single coils.
- 2-Piece Ash Body (incredibly well matched)
- Buckeye Burl top/matching headstock
- Morado fingerboard
- Aguilar DCB Soapbars
- Mayones 3 band pre VOL - BLEND - MID - BASS/TREBLE - TONE - active/passive switch
- < 9lbs - I can't remember the exact weight but I think it was 8.8lbs
- 20in fingerboard radius
- Schaller BM light tuners
-
Mayones hybrid bass case and COA
Here's Anton Davidyants playing this exact bass:
Trades for 5-string jazz's considered - Sadowsky/Lakland etc.
I'd be willing to drive an hour or so from Luton for a meet up, otherwise we can discuss postage.
Cheers,
Joe

2 cracking basses. The carvin stuff doesn't get the credit it deserves tbf. Hardly mentioned but right up there with anything else. That fretted is very tempting and joins the shortlist.
Yes, they're amazing instruments. The fretted is pretty special, Marcus Miller tone in spades!

2 Carvin SB jazz basses. Better pics and weight etc. to follow, getting the ad up before my Basschat sub expires!
£900 for the fretted
£700 for the fretless - SOLD Pending
The fretted has a Hipshot D-tuner, John East Deluxe pre and Aguilar 70's hum-cancelling pickups.
The neck pickup route and scratchplate have been adapted a little to accommodate the smaller pickup size.
Here's how it sounds (slap):

Hi,
Absolutely final price drop - £475
EBS Neo Gorm 210 - Fantastic amp, essentially an HD350 with a neo 2x10 cab, all in one package. It's in great condition and really nails the Marcus Miller tone.
Comes with a padded cover (with a pocket for leads etc) castors and a foot pedal for toggling the filters.
Trades considered for a hollow/semi-hollowbody bass. Jack Casady or similar...
I'm based in Godalming, Surrey / Chichester, West Sussex - happy to drive a reasonable distance for a hand over.
I seem to have lost one of the castors but I'm currently tracking down a replacement.
UPDATE: I now have a set of brand new castors so there are 3 spares.
I also purchased 4 brand new plastic corner protectors as one of them has a crack - can fit prior to sale.

Hi,
* Price drop to £1100 including postage *
Mayones Jabba Classic V up for sale.
I bought it used from bass direct last year for £1700 and have since upgraded the preamp to a John East Uni pre (~£200)
Condition is good with a few dings - worst one on the lower bout (pictured) and a small ding on the back/edge of the neck (between the 5th & 6th frets).
9lbs 10oz
Specs are listed here: https://mayones.com/page/jabba-classic-5/
I would be interested in a trade/part ex for a fretless Jazz bass (4/5 string) or a JV jazz.
Comes with a Mayones gig bag (a little stitching missing on the main pocket)
I'm currently in Luton, happy to travel for a hand over.
Thanks for looking!
