  1. Happy to ship anywhere however the buyer would have to cover these costs. Only trade I would potentially consider would be an early Warwick Thumb or Dolphin.
  2. This is another great Jazz bass from my collection. I also have a CS '64 jazz bass for sale here and there's not a huge amount between them. It's a limited edition run (or FSR) in Daphne Blue with matching headstock. There are differing accounts online regarding how limited the run was but from what I can ascertain there were likely 50 for the American market and 50 for the European market, as such, they don't come up for sale that often. This one is in near mint condition, it has not been gigged, only home use. The only (very slight) blemishes are where the chrome covers have been attached as the nitro finish is very light. It has numerous case candy and a rather nice cream G&G case. Pics now added! Weight is 4.05 kg Collection and Trial welcome in Cardiff, UK. I have a feedback thread here on BC.
  3. Re-listed, I would like to keep this (and am tempted to) but I'm needing to raise some funds now for a studio-related project. I got this recently from binkybongo from this forum. These images are from the original thread. It's a great sounding, lightweight (4kg) jazz bass, one of the best I've played. Really strong, even tone across the fretboard. It has numerous light scratches which are difficult to see and some dings (pictured). Collection and trial welcome in Cardiff, UK. Happy to discuss shipping options to anywhere. I have a feedback thread here on BC. Cheers. Feedback here:
  4. Steve Harris for me. His sound attracted me to the instrument when I was at college; galloping, clanky, aggressive tone, always driving the song.
  5. This post cannot be displayed because it is in a forum which requires at least 1 post to view.
  6. Lovely looking bass! Another bump for a great seller...
  7. This is a tough decision but here’s my ‘08 CV P bass, I believe this was the first run of the model. Its in excellent condition, a couple of marks on the side of the body and some discolouration where the bridge cover once sat. The pick guard still has the plastic covering on it. This is one of the nicest P basses I’ve ever played and it delivers the classic sound with the TI flats that are currently installed. The original wiring loom has been replaced for KiOGon solderless however I’ll include the original along with the original bridge cover. Collection in Cardiff preferred as I don’t have a case or a box for this bass at present.
  8. I’d love to get my hands on a 3000MA but from what I can tell, they don’t come up very often...
  9. Out of interest, is there much difference between the 3000 and 3000MA, other than cosmetics..?
  10. I’ve never seen that either! I’d wanted to try the BB3000MA just to see what the reverse P config is like on a 3000. Strange they dropped that feature for this model.
  11. The body dimensions on the older BB’s are slightly different, they’ve slimmed down the new range a little... slightly ironic given they’re ‘broad basses’. The new ones also have standard pickup dimensions which means more retro-fitting potential.
  12. I’d love to own this bass - would look lovely next to my ‘84 black BB3000! Unfortunately, I need to sell another bass before I do any further shopping 😭
  13. Here's my 1975 P bass. It's in great condition, the body has some marks where the paint has begun to crack in places however these are difficult to see given the black finish. The neck is pretty much unmarked and is a lovely, well figured piece of birdseye maple. Pots and neck stamp date to 1975. The pickup codes are not quite legible as the original pickup foam is stuck to the base of them and I don't want to tear this off. The case is in great condition, all latches working fine (no key unfortunately). Original pickup and bridge cover are present along with an old set of rotosounds, a lead and some old music that has always been with this bass. Weight is 10lb 5oz on my digital scales. Balances really nicely. The only thing missing from this bass are the original 2 screws that secure the chrome pickup cover (the 2 for the bridge cover are present), otherwise, everything you see is completely original. I'd encourage a trial in Cardiff, UK. I'm willing to ship at the buyers cost and risk. I frequently drive down to the Portsmouth area also if that helps anyone. Happy to consider any trades with cash in either direction. Now £2150 for a straight sale. Feedback:
  14. At one point I owned a BB1024 and a BB3000. Now I just own the 3000. They both have a very similar tone however the reason the 3000 has stuck around was the comparatively lighter weight (my 3000 is 4kg) and the depth of the neck was slimmer front to back. Both awesome basses though and there’s really not much in it.
  15. Appears to be in excellent condition - very tempting!
  16. A well used jazz bridge pickup with plenty of signs of wear and tear. It’s working fine. The current wiring is a little short and might require extending or changing.
  17. Barely used with box. Condition as new. £50 posted to your UK address.
  18. A solid set of Gotoh tuners, made in Japan. These were on a Yamaha BB3000 when I took ownership of it, they weren’t the original tuners (or correct colour) so here they are... They work just fine. They have a pitted / matted / dulled appearance as I think they are quite old, perhaps 80’s / 90’s... £50 posted in the UK
  19. A set of Wizard Thumpers for your P bass.. £50 posted in the UK.
  20. I bought this off eBay a couple of months ago for a project that’s unlikely to happen now. Cost me £50. It’s a nice 60’s style relic with good attention to detail. £35 delivered in the UK.
  21. My decision to by an old Fender was informed very little by logic, reason or rational thinking! It was more an emotional decision based on the way the instrument makes me feel and play. If all musical decisions were rational and logical, I fear we might be culturally poorer for it. Additionally, I don’t feel my old fender is ‘better’ than my Yamaha or CV squier, just different.
  22. Ahhh, my bad - I thought Andy was asking about the 3000’s in general. 👍
  23. Perhaps this was a custom colour but this rather lovely BB3000 is in ‘black / redburst’ - looks like an original finish to me. http://www.bassdirect.co.uk/bass_guitar_specialists/Yamaha_BB3000.html Also, Tony Kanal is pictured here with some sort of burst finish BB3000...
