  1. These are nice basses - seems a bit light at 6lbs though?
  2. I bought this about 6 months ago and fitted it briefly to test it but decided to keep my old Precision's 70s pickup. Therefore this is boxed and like new complete with all packaging and screws. See pics. I can post it in the UK if necessary for an extra couple of quid.
  3. Up to the top!

    Another deal is struck! This time for my Markbass cab. Thanks Martin always good to see you!
  5. Cheers it's been around the block a few times but it's a lovely old thing!
  6. 1964 Epiphone Rivoli Bass and reissue Epiphone case. As you can see it has been well used and modded with a Gibson treble pickup at the bridge. At one point it was converted to left hand and has had extra holes - now filled - to the top. The bridge was made specially for the bass by an engineer friend of mine who I asked to create a copy of the original Gibson cast bridge but with greater adjustability for the intonation. When I bought the bass it had a very basic non stock bridge bolted to it from a cheap copy. The bass has Hipshot tuners that fit perfectly without any extra drilling however I will return the original Klusons. The bass has a superb feel and action and plays brilliantly. The trussrods works and frets have lots of life in them. Withdrawn from here.
  7. This is my Moog LP - it's the original version of the Moog LittlePhatty with midi and arpeggiator but no USB. It's in excellent cosmetic and functional condition but has a mechanical fault in that the modulation controller wheel can be a hit and miss and has a dodgy pot and could do with replacing. Having said that it works fine otherwise and sounds superb. Typical sparkly leads and fat bass. Although sounds can be programmed and then stored to memory presets the synth is a true analogue mono synth. I'd prefer pickup as it's large and heavy. No trades thanks.
  8. It is but I DI the combo for bigger gigs so have not used the cab in anger.
  9. I need this gone so will accept £230 cash on collection cheers!
  10. That makes sense cheers!
  11. I don't think so I was wondering about pickup selection I will check again but I thought it acted as a master tone in passive mode
  12. US made loveliness reduced to £275
  13. Status bump
  14. Controls are - Volume, master tone, active/passive switch, bass,mid,treble active eq (smaller knobs).
  15. Thanks for that Chris yes that's the bass
  16. Bump as I said I'd exchange for a Markbass LM head
  17. Andy came over from Manchester to buy my Ovation Magnum bass, turns out like me he's a Magazine fan and was at their reunion gig a few years ago at Manchester Academy! Great guy to deal with pm'd me 10 minutes after the bass was posted, collected and paid the following day. Top class.
  18. Another bass for sale as part of my New Year resolution to consolidate my collection! This time a custom made Status light relic Precision type bass with 'f' hole and graphite neck. The bass is very similar to the GP signature or their Retroactive range. Apparently it was made for the bassist from NW indie band Starsailor and is a one off. When I bought it the 18v m preamp had been taken out and was going to be replaced. Unfortunately it was 'cut' and no pics taken or diagrams made of the original circuit. (I have kept and will include the original preamp and knobs )As it was a custom bass Rob at Status didn't know the wiring without having a look and to be honest I couldn't be bothered with the expense and delay of sending it down to be reworked. Instead I put in a new active preamp that operates from a single 9v battery (the passive active switch is redundant and was left for cosmetic reasons i.e. To cover up the hole!) . The bass sounds fantastic and plays beautifully and is light at around 9.5lbs. I'm selling as I don't get on with the slab body. The plan now is to buy a Status neck and mount it in an old PJ body. There is no case but I can find a gig bag, I'd prefer pickup and it's UK only with no trades. Cheers!
