  1. They remind me of the old Dan Armstrong London Sliding pickup basses or the Ampeg plexiglass basses in shape. I really like the look. As a long term Gibson Grabber owner I think Gibson basses are great when they get it right and this model looks right to me! I’m very tempted at the price they have them at Reidy’s . I could buy one contour the upper bout where the forearm would rest and replace the pickup with my spare Grabber pickup.
  2. It’s a shame isn’t it? It looks diseased. The genuine road-worn look.
  3. I want to rescue it! But look at the bow in the neck...still, it’s fairly near me so if it doesn’t go silly I will have a punt 😉
  4. Minimark 602 combo Incredible power and versatility for a combo that weighs just over 9kgs! This one is in excellent condition and has only been used for practice/rehearsal. It comes with cover by Roqsolid and is an early Italian made model. I can post at buyers cost. No trades sorry. Price is negotiable within reason. Minimark 150/250W 2x6 Bass Combo Amp Specifications: Impedance: 8 ohm Speaker size: 2 x 6" Reflex: rear Tweeter: Piezo Tweeter Cab Power Handling: 300W RMS (AES Standard) Power Supply: Special Markbass digital power supply Crossover Frequency: 3.5kHz Power amp output: 150W 8 ohm / 250W 4 ohm Frequency Response: 59Hz to 18kHz Sensitivity: 101 dB SPL Weight: 20.72 lbs. Dimensions: 8.86"W x 17.24"H x 15.24"D Only selling as I have my eye on a slightly bigger Markbass combo.
  5. Thanks I’ll have a look!
  6. Yes mine is a two way switch and it’s the original one. My mate has one and that is two way also. Thanks that’s a great help though!
  7. Would you happen to have a picture of how the switch/loom is wired up? The pickup works but in one position the E&A strings have a much lower output than G&D I’m wondering if it’s been wired up wrongly? Cheers
  8. I took delivery of the bass in the ad today, it’s in good shape overall and the pickup does have a bit of an output. The bridge is toast however so until I can source one I’ll use an old brass one I have in my spares box. Build quality is beautiful and it’s so light compared to my SB700. If anyone has a suitable Aria bridge let me know....😉
  9. That looks great can you provide dimensions and weight please?
  10. The synth pedal was bought on a whim but has been unused other than to test it out. It’s as new with box and all accessories and is unregistered. Price includes UK postage. No trades thanks.
  11. ...and what’s with the red pole piece screws?
  12. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Hofner-violin-bass-McCartney-Beatles-guitars-brother/223606670134?hash=item340fff0336:g:JosAAOSwwSVdQZZY
  13. That’s lovely what’s the nut width please?
  14. Andy bought my 60th Anniversary Precision - he paid quickly and was great to deal with. A credit to the Basschat community. Cheers!
  15. Very nice what’s its weight and is postage an option?
  16. Thanks for the specs Muppet 😊
  17. I bought this one from Karl recently it’s a lovely bass however I’m too nervous to take it out as it’s near mint and as it’s a similar weight to my old faithful Precision at 4.3kgs I’ve decided to move it on quickly before I bond with it. To quote Karl it’s ‘Not one of the 1000's of '96 Fender 50th anniversary, this is a 50th Anniversary of the Precision bass model. Less than 500 made, apparently only 200 made it out of the USA, these do not come up often. They sold at about £1500 in 2001.’ Price is cash, no trades thanks, I won't be taking offers I'm afraid. Here’s a link to some discussion - https://www.talkbass.com/threads/fender-50th-anniversary-precision-bass.597217/page-4 I’m happy to post at your cost within the UK. It’s a beautiful bass, comes with certificate and documents, original tweed case, matching Fender tweed strap, truss rod tool, it’s probably the nicest, cleanest modern P bass I’ve played. This is a UK only sale. Thanks for looking.
  18. It is the same person as Fly Guitars he bought an old Epiphone off me years ago - decent chap - the pricing of this bass seems a tad ambitious but good luck to him, it’s a rare thing but definitely the Corvus of the Gibson bass world 😉
  19. No I decided against it - too much work, I picked up an old Wilson Sapphire bass earlier this week so that’s my current project.
  20. I did yet another deal with Karl today brilliant to trade with as ever, this time a 50th anniversary Precision. Cheers mate - good to see you again!
  21. I added a new Eminence 6.5 mid at 8ohms and it sounds great! Thanks for all the advice.
  22. This is a great bass to play a really nice neck and a good weight for a slab body and that massive pickup with the equally massive sound.
