  1. It’s loud but I doubt 300 watts loud on its own. I tried it with an extension cab and it was REALLY loud. 🤣
  2. Trace Elliot Speaker cabinet. 10” Celestion in a small cab, this was originally a Commando combo but the amp blew. I’ve wired it as an extension cabinet and most recently used it as an extension cab with my Markbass Mini. It’s a nice little cab in decent condition. I’d rate it at 100 watts. I’d prefer pickup but can send it for £25 it’s quite heavy probably because it’s old school Trace Elliot build quality. U.K. only. No trades. It could be used with an ELF head as a portable solution for small gigs.
  3. The clear out continues - this time my spare combo a lovely little Ibanez Promethean P3110 for sale with Roqsolid cover. The amp is in excellent condition. I have gigged it myself only once (with PA support) on a big stage with a full band - it worked really well as a monitor when my main amp died. Apart from this it’s been used at home as a practice amp. I bought it secondhand but it has been well cared for. It sounds nice and punchy however the tweeter doesn’t work - possibly a loose connection - I didn’t bother to attempt to fix this as it sounds fine without it. I can box it and send it at buyers cost in the U.K. probably around £25. Please note that much of my gear has been sold or is in storage and I have been using this with my main amp’s power lead (kettle lead) so no mains lead is included. I’d prefer pickup so you can try it. No trades. Here is the Ibanez blurb. Designed to achieve a full-spectrum bass tone in a compact portable package, the Promethean P3110 is capable of producing up to 300w of power. It is also equipped with an array of useful, on-board features making this far more than just a simple practice amp. The 3-band EQ, 10" woofer with dome tweeter, and balance XLR, afford this amp everything needed to be an agile and effective gigging solution. Thanks.
  4. Not sure of the strings they were on a Fender I bought. They maybe GHS?
  5. I’d rather sell it as a complete bass Andy, it’s very nice to play and I’m looking for a quick sale.
  6. Fender Precision Bitsa - put together with all genuine Fender parts. Body is from a ‘50s MIM Fender Precision reissue. Neck, scratchplate and hardware is from a 2012 MIM Roger Waters Signature Precision. Seymour Duncan Quarterpounder P bass pickup. Spiral saddled bridge so you can adjust string spacing. It’s light weight at 3.8kgs and sounds great. There are a few minor blemishes but nothing structural. It’s a lovely maple capped neck with a brass nut. Action is nice and light, truss rod works fine. No case but I have a decent box to post it in U.K. only. Selling because my trusty amp has died and I need to replace it. No trades sorry. Postage at buyers cost. If it doesn’t sell at this price I’ll part it out. Cheers!
  7. I’d entertain a part trade on a Markbass head too.
  8. Would they be long enough for a through strung bass ?
  9. I’m looking to replace the heavy tuners on my 2003 Corona P bass. Does anyone know which tuner I need to go for? I know that there are licensed and US made Ultralights but what size string post? I’m looking at the chrome/clover models. Here are two pictures to illustrate what size tuners are already on my bass, any help would be appreciated.
  10. Warwick Gnome Pro I This is the top of the range 280 watt into 4ohms version. It has the USB out so it can also be used as an interface without special drivers. I bought it from Anderson’s late September this year for a couple of gigs and a recording whilst my main amp was being serviced. It’s surplus to requirements now so I’m selling on. It was £200 delivered so I will sell at £175. Not bad for a virtually brand new amp. It also comes with a proper mains lead rather than the crappy one Anderson’s shipped it with that required an adapter. Boxed as new. It sounds massive and is barely bigger than a CD! No trades UK only price includes postage.
  11. Fender MIM Roger Waters Signature Precision Bass. This is another of my RW P basses. It has the capped maple board neck with brass nut, stock black hardware and single ply pickguard. The pickup is the stock Seymour Duncan Quarter Pounder. The bass plays well and sounds really punchy. Frets and neck are very clean and in excellent condition with a few dings at the headstock. Some dings and buckle-rash on the body and hardware tarnishing. Weighs 4kgs. No gig bag I’m afraid. Withdrawn
  12. I got a Warwick Gnome I Pro today which is rated at 280 watts. Like many here I bought it as a rehearsal and back up amp. It does sound fantastic, I have tried it through a vintage Vox cabinet and a Jennings both Celestion loaded. A Trace Elliot 10” cab and my Mark Bass NY 604. All sounded loud and punchy, incidentally all had an 8 ohm load making total power 180 watts. The 15” sounded best. Very loud. I used a Ric 5 string and the low B was fine, my old 77 Precision, a Precision with quarter pounders and my Yamaha Peter Hook with active eq. All worked well - I will gig it this weekend, probably for the last set to see if it perks up my ears.
  13. It reminds me of the old JPS racing livery. Nice looking hand made U.K. bass but the price is a bit ambitious I think. I’m sure it’s worth it but it’s a one off and GS aren’t really known for their basses. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/304165969863?ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT&_trksid=p2060353.m1438.l2649
  14. It’s a very nice 1982 US made Precision Elite. It’s in excellent condition. All original apart from some screws and a new nut. The bass has a great action and the electrics work perfectly. The chunky bridge is included and complete with intonation disc/screws though at the moment I’ve taken them off as they are a bit uncomfortable when muting. It’s a lovely well balanced bass and not a bad weight for one of these at 4.3kgs. Neck has some nice figuring and the body has a lovely grain to it. No trades please as this is part of my clearout. The bass was made in Fullerton US apparently and quite rare. At one point it had a basic BBT bridge installed and as a result I tried a threaded bridge on it which reduced the weight to 4kgs! There are five extra screws under the original bridge for this although you can’t see them. There is also a crack in the battery cover. Pickup preferred but I can post at buyers cost U.K. only as I have a decent box. Sorry no case.
  15. Yep it was mine, no surprises really, they bought my Mustang too so I expect to see it soon at a big mark up. That’s capitalism. They paid quickly and I got what I wanted for the instruments, the moral is keep an eye out for bargains on Basschat!
  16. Price is a bit better than part 1 but given the fact only the body and neck are Gibson and the possibilty that the body has been hacked away into a swimming pool under that scratchplate… https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/224619100251?hash=item344c57785b%3Ag%3AeUIAAOSwPKxhSyv1&LH_ItemCondition=3000
  17. A bass that is essentially a hybrid Fender Roger Waters signature model with a MIM Fender 50’s body. All the parts and the neck were from a Fender RW bass. The pickup is a Seymour Duncan quarter pounder and as the name suggests it’s a pretty beefy unit. Strings are D’addario round wounds. The body is from a Fender Mexican 50’s reissue that was nice and light the whole bass weighs in at 3.9 kgs and plays really well. It’s a unique looking bass with 100% Fender parts. The neck is capped maple and has a brass nut. It dates from 2010. I’ve used this as a backup and it’s had a lot of compliments as the black and red combination is very eye catching. Withdrawn
  18. Roger Waters signature Precision bass. I bought this from the original owner a while back mainly because of the black finish and maple neck. It reminded me of my old 70s Precision, however the neck profile is different and so it’s been in storage and not used. I noticed when I swapped the jack output that it has had extra scratch plate holes drilled so it accepts a traditional style 13 hole guard. I installed one as I wanted to keep ‘The Wall’ scratch plate intact with the sticker in place. So the bass comes with three ply guard and original single ply guard as a spare. The neck is lovely, it’s unusual as it is a capped board rather than one with a skunk stripe - I believe some 60s basses were made like this notably the slab body P bass made for the U.K. market only. The bass has a brass nut and black hardware, the tuners are stock and they are chrome - another quirk of this model. Currently there are chrome pickguard screws however I will include the original black ones. The bass also has a stock Seymour Duncan quarter pounder fitted which sounds great! The bass plays well and is fitted with newish round wound strings, it’s got a great sound with plenty of sustain.it is lightweight at 3.9kgs and comes with Fender gig bag and manual, etc. It is in near new condition other than the replacement jack socket and extra holes which cannot be seen when the original scratch plate is fitted. It dates from around 2016. No trades please, I can post but only in the U.K. I’m selling it for what it cost me.
  19. I have an ‘81 Elite 1 it’s a nicely made bass and not too heavy either. GLWTS
  20. Another lovely old Fender for sale - this time a stock natural finish 1979 Precision with maple board and subtle flaming to the neck. This has been my spare bass for quite some time. It’s a real workhorse with some minor dings and cosmetic blemishes but no structural damage. There aren’t any issues with the neck other than minor dings and marks. Scratchplate serial sticker matches the one on the headstock. All the proper stickers and stamps on the body and neck. When I bought it had a cheap replacement pickup and newer Fender tuners and knobs. The thumb-rest is a later one it looks like something had been glued on and then removed at some point. See new pics. There is a glue/residue mark but this is mostly covered by the newer rest. I replaced the pickup with a Seymour Duncan Quarter pounder. Everything else is stock, pots, wiring, scratchplate and hardware. The bass is light for a late 70’s P at 4kgs. Balances well, sounds great and plays superbly. A proper vintage Precision. It comes with pickup and bridge cover though they look very new I was told they were original to the bass. It comes strung with D’Addarios and there isn’t much fret wear for a 40 plus year old bass. Truss rod works as it ought to. I have loads more pics if required. You know the script selling because I’m downsizing, UK only sale, no trades, I can post if necessary however I’d prefer pickup in person.
  21. This time a money grabbing Grabber https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/294383258858?hash=item448a9c0cea%3Ag%3AIRwAAOSwXtFhOLU7&LH_ItemCondition=3000 Sadly the original pickup that made the Grabber grab me has been replaced. I love a Grabber - my ‘74 has outlived many basses and looks like an Ercol coffee table, but it sounds fantastic. This is a nice bass but very much the wrong side of a grand - the buy it now price is ridiculous! Perhaps I ought to tell the seller I’ve got a genuine spare ‘74 pickup to sell….£400 perhaps?
  22. A beautiful original US 1977 Fender Mustang bass with maple fingerboard and stock natural finish. Great condition, functions and plays superbly with a punchy sound. It’s strung with Roto medium scale strings. At some point in its life it has been strung as a lefty as there are filled areas for strap buttons and some side position markers which have also been filled. These do not get in the way when playing. Truss rod works fine as do the electrics. It’s a great vintage bass for those with back or shoulder issues as it weighs a mere 3.3kgs! Very comfortable to play and has a nice clean look to it. There is no thumbrest as this must have got in the way of the lefty’s pick technique It has the matching serial number sticker under the scratchplate, pots and wiring appear stock to me and the grounding plate is still in the control cavity. A rare opportunity to get your hands on a Fender short scale vintage classic. The Mustang actually uses medium scale strings as it is through body strung. Sorry no trades and no sales outside the U.K. I’m selling lots of stuff I don’t use owing to a house move (although most of the vintage Vox/Jennings gear is staying). It comes with a contemporary non-Fender case. Postage can be arranged but pickup definitely preferred.
