Hi all Got a couple of basses I’ve been meaning to list for a while, here’s the first. Brilliant bass, perfect B string, just not sonically where I’m finding I want to be at the moment: Body Wood: Alder Body Color: Altrosa (custom Color) High Gloss Neck Wood: Birdseye Roasted Maple Fretboard Wood: Roasted Birdseye Maple Scale: 34", 5-String Pickups: 1 delano JMVC, 1 delano MCFE/PU split Preamp: John East J Retro Deluxe, passive tone control Special: Aged Nickel Hardware, Black Block Inlays, Matching Headstock Gig bag: Included Weighing in at just 4kg is super light with a very comfy fast neck. The custom colour, altrosa, is even more stunning in person. I upgraded the preamp to a J Retro deluxe which gives more versatility and can really fatten up the sound in a way that the original preamp couldn’t. It originally came with gold hardware which I can include for the buyer if paying the full price. A few of minor dings to the nitro and one scratch on the back of the upper horn but in great condition. It’s a great bass so won’t be unhappy if it doesn’t sell. It’s currently being used at a theatre in London so in no rush. comes with Sandberg gig bag. Pickup possible from Chessington or central London. Will also ship. Any questions let me know Thanks Dan

Hi all Tricky one to price this so feel free to message if you think I’m wildly wrong in either direction. It’s a wicked P bass that I’ve had for quite a while, fully Japanese early 90s (Fujigen) made. Weighs in at only 3.6kg. The neck is from a PB-62US, with the big reverse tuners, dark rosewood board and 60s logo. There’s a bit of a flame to the maple on certain lights. 44mm nut. The body is from a Squier Silver Series Precision Bass SPB33 (stamped in the neck pocket). These are great basses which I have another of. I believe electronics and pickup are original, the tone control is great, lots of options across the range rather than just on/off that you often get. Condition: Body, pretty worn and some chips to the finish, you can see some lines where the 3pc body joins together in certain lights. It’s looks great and has a nice genuine ‘relic’ vibe to it. The pickup poles and screws have a bit of rust on them but nothing that affects the sound Neck: Probably better condition than the body, lots of minor dents and dings but fair condition for a 30+ year old neck. The PB62US P Basses go for £1000+ and the silver series squiers look to be around £500 so I’m starting this at £650 but open to offers - a chance to get a great workhorse P bass with a high end Japanese neck for much cheaper than you otherwise would. Any questions, give me a shout. Shipping possible but collection preferred from Chessington or Central London. Thanks Dan

Squier PJ Bass Body (very light!) - *SOLD*

Bought this for a project which never got done. its a Squier PJ body weighing only 1.8kg. In a nice Inca silver/gold finish. there appears to be two sets of bridge holes, I wonder whether one was a factory alignment error…either way, the holes are in the correct place and the ‘extras’ are covered by a standard bridge. looking to get something near what I paid for it which is £70. Will ship at my cost. Can chuck in the pickguard for an extra £10. Thanks

Price includes UK shipping. Selling this barely used preamp removed from an Anaconda Jamal Nichols Signature bass. These preamps seem to be about £240 so selling for half price. its the 4 knob one with a 3 way mini toggle (gold) for mid frequency. I think it can be used without the toggle if you prefer. edit: it also has active passive push/pull! Great preamp, ready to go. Battery leads are set up for a separate compartment but can easily be splices together if you want the battery in the cavity. Any questions, give me a shout. u

Time for a bit of a clear out. This is a mono dual gig bag, great case but I’m not using it at the moment. I would describe it as ‘tired but functional’. This has seen a lot of gigs hence the low price. All zips work as they should. Please note one of the ‘tick’ attachments is broken but could probably be sewn back on if you have the skills! pickup preferred from Chessington or central London. Could potentially bag up and post too. Some photos of condition but for any specifics, do ask.

Thanks for the interest! All I know is what they told me regarding the refinish, other than that, I don’t know anymore unfortunately! Truss rod turns both ways and works as it should. Tuners smooth, pots all good, no crackling. Bridge is original. The bass is setup with nice low action and Elixir 45-100 nickel strings. Weight comes in between 4.2 and 4.3kg on my luggage scales. I’ll take a couple more photos later today. Hope that helps! Thanks
