I have a couple of old Wem Westminster amps and love them for bass. I saw Richard Hawley on the Coles Corner tour last night and he was using both a Dominator and an earlier Watkins Westminster (with onboard tremolo) on stage. Sounded great. These amps are very capable and last for ever!

Set of Hammond MIDI pedals I used with various modules including a Moog Minitaur they also work with Hammond organs or midi keyboards. Instant Geddy on a budget. They are in excellent condition and come with manual and PSU. They are hefty at around 8kgs as the body is made of pressed steel. The pedals have a good action. Note they do not self generate sounds they are a controller and you will need to connect them via midi. Only selling as I am upgrading. I can post in UK at buyer’s cost.

These were taken from a late Fender Precision and were fitted by the original owner. They sound great and were a popular mod of the time as they could be wired to a series parallel switch. Withdrawn They work well and there is still a good length of wire to them. They have the remains of the original pickup sponges stuck to the rear of them. I can send them in the box in the picture.

These are great value for money basses.

As per title used briefly on a shortscale Stingray. Cut for 3+1 or 2+2 basses. Lightly used. Price includes UK postage. PayPal please.

Squier Precision Bass neck from 1997. In good condition, fully loaded and also comes with neck/serial number plate, screws, knobs and bridge plus screws. Chinese made Affinity from the Yako factory apparently and well regarded budget instruments of the time. It’s a modern feeling neck. Truss rod turns left and right, frets are fine. Nice neck for a project. I can post in the UK only for free if you can’t pick it up.

I’m sure all the early Tokai instruments were Japanese made - the logo had to be altered to a block version (because it looked rather like a rather more famous US brand at the time) and then the headstock changed to a more angular design around mid 80s. I’m sure Bassassin will know the correct history and manufacturing info.

Fender Precision Bass 1978 Natural Finish Lightweight with Gig Bag I’ve reduced the price to encourage a quick sale. I doubt you will get as nice and light an example of a classic Fender Precision from this era. I’m also interested in a straight swap for a Rickenbacker model 4003 or 4003s. Thanks for looking. Fantastic Fender Precision bass from the late 70’s the only non-original part is the pickup which is a noughties US Fender wired to a series parallel switch. The pots, wiring, and hardware all original. You can see there’s currently a D tuner on it but if it sells I’ll return it to stock as I have the original tuner. The bass is factory natural with nicely grained wood. It’s light at around 3.7kgs - amazing for a bass of this era and the neck is slim with a shallow profile. There are the usual ID marks and sticker under the scratchplate with serial number matching the headstock. Sadly no case but I have a light modern Fender gigbag for it or if you prefer a scruffy heavier duty generic one. The bass balances really well and plays easily. There is lacquer wear at the upper bout and the finish has crazed over time. The finish is rubbed to near bare wood in places but it is honest wear and not particularly bothersome. You can feel the crazing when you rest your forearm on the edge, it didn’t irritate me when playing live. Great opportunity to buy a lightweight 70’s classic Fender. I’m sorry but the only trades I may be interested in are for a Rickenbacker 4003/4003s or 4000. Pickup preferred but I can post if absolutely necessary. UK only. Bit of an update I’ve replaced the Hipshot D tuner with the original Fender and it is now strung with TI flats. Sounds great! Set up with an easy low action. Price reduced for the final time before I decide to keep it.

Great little mono synth (although can do paraphonic) with an analogue delay. This is the Reissue, NOT the V3 or even the original. Sounds fantastic and comes boxed with USB lead and ribbon lead if you want to connect it to eurorack. I’ve barely used it since I bought it as I’ve been concentrating on playing piano and organ. Excellent condition.

Ah my favourite MB preamp. Wonderful amps GLWTS!

I’m not sure it looks stock to me. I know that there were a few hardware options open. The control plate is apparently a different size from the standard StingRay so not an easy replacement part to source.

This one weighs 3.9kgs so much lighter than your average similar era Fender.

I’ve found a use for these so now withdrawn.

Ibanez Roadstar II 1981 Japanese made bass with original case. This is the early 80’s Ibanez version of a Precision, the difference between this and some Fenders of the same era is that this model doesn’t weigh a ton and costs about a quarter! This is a lovely bass in its own right, simple passive volume and tone, split pickup and a nicely proportioned neck. It weighs 4kgs and is in pretty good condition for its 44 years. It plays very well and sounds like you would expect. It’s all original apart from the strap buttons which were changed years ago for strap lock types. This was prior to my purchase so I’ve no idea what happened to the originals. There are some dings to the body and some small blemishes to the neck. Truss rod is fine and works well, frets are in good order as is also the pickups and hardware. I got this in a trade and it owes me £495. Classic black and maple looks which I love, sadly the slightly wider than a P bass body is uncomfortable for me to play so it’s not seeing any action. I’m getting rid of any basses that aren’t being played regularly that hold no sentimental value. Sorry no trades unless you have a Sterling SB14 or a US Sub Sterling then possibly. It comes with what I was told is the original case. It’s certainly of the same era. One clasp is broken but it still does the job. Great vintage MIJ Precision alternative at a decent price. I’m sure it will bring back memories for some of you. Prefer pickup but can post in the UK only at buyer’s cost.

Not quite but it does make some weird, wonderful and musical noises!

Yes I have owned extremes one at nearly 5kgs one at under 3.5. I regret getting rid of my red Sterling last year when I went in for surgery. Sold to buy a EBMM short scale I later moved on - to you perhaps?

I’ve had several but realise I’m happier with long scale now that my fretting hand is healed.
