  1. For sale, my beloved American Deluxe Jazz Bass V.

     

    This is hands down one of the finest and most joyous to play basses I have ever owned.  It feels absolutely amazing in the hands and is incredibly light and well balanced for a 5-string.  Why am I selling?  Because I broke something expensive (non-bass related!) and I need the funds to replace it.  So it follows that I'm not really interested in trades, unfortunately.  (I would never trade this anyway!)

     

    Condition is fantastic.

     

    Collection only from Bristol area, or within reasonable distance.

     

    Questions welcome!

  2. Price dropped to £750!

     

    For sale, my beautiful Maruszczyk Elwood 4a in shell pink.

     

    I don't have a lot of information on this bass I'm afraid, but it was bought second hand in mid-2019 from Bass Direct who was selling it "as new" from someone who had changed their mind.  New it was £1750 as it has various options, though I don't know what they were and the original listing as since been removed.

     

    It's a great bass though and the colour is quite something!  It's in great condition with very little to speak of apart from a little bit of wear round the pickups where my thumb presumably goes.  So there's a little light ageing at no extra cost :)

    No trades thanks as I'm going to try and buy back my old bass!  I would rather not post this as I've never posted a bass before, and the thought terrifies me.  So I would prefer a pick up in the Bristol area or deliver/meet within reasonable distance.

  3. For sale, my trusty Deep Impact.  The original and best (probably).

    Despite being decades old, this is in pristine condition.  It also comes with its original box and power supply (the power supply has never been used or plugged in).

    No playing issues whatsoever.  There's a bit of pop at first when using the on/off footswitch, though this goes away after playing through it for about 30 seconds (shrug).

    Sorry for the lack of pictures but I will try and upload some later.

    Questions welcome!  No trades thanks, I am trying to shift some of my gear and this is going to go first.

  4. For sale, my lovely Bongo 5H (single hubucking pickup), in silver.

    I'm selling this because it's not getting the use it deserves.  It's a fantastic instrument though, light with a great neck and fantastic sound.  It's in great condition too.

    Cash preferred / meet somewhere within driving distance of Bristol.  However, if you've got a high end jazz 5 of some sort, then I might succumb to GAS as I'm a jazz nut 😄

    Pics later!

  5. For sale, this Bartolini 76DL5C pickup.  Bought from Bass Direct ages ago, but I have only recently attempted to fit it into my Bongo 5.  Unfortunately it doesn't fit, so it has to go.  As I've only ever taken it out of the box twice (once to find out it doesn't fit, and once to take these photos!), it's in as-new, mint condition.  It should fit other MusicMan 5 string basses.

     

    (If anyone knows of a Bartolini pickup that would fit a Bongo 5 I'd love to know :laugh1:)

     

    £80 posted!

  6. I'm having a pedal board rejig, and these three have to go to make room for new things :)

    All three are in excellent condition with velcro on the bottom. All include P&P though you can have a fiver off if you pick up from Bristol.

    Markbass Octaver - great analog pedal that can output dry, octave below, and two octaves below (!) signals. Plus, what a colour scheme! [s]£100[/s][b] [b]£80[/b][/b]

    [s]COG Tarkin - fabulous, versatile fuzzbox in a tiny package. [b]£90[/b][/s]

    Boss ODB-3 - Surprisingly awesome sounding overdrive. [s]£70[/s][b] [b]£50[/b][/b]

    Whats it like for gigging?

    Quite awesome! I have used it in the past for an outdoor rock gig, not going through the PA. Didn't break a sweat (Carvin B1000 powered it).

    Plus you can lift it with one hand. :D

    Edit: Just saw your other thread where you're looking for Trace kit. A couple of years ago I actually had a Trace head used with this cab - the head was the AH1000-12. This, plus the cab, and my Bartolini-equipped bass was the best set up I've ever had! I only got rid of the Trace because of the reliability issues! I kept the cab... a good sign ;)
