Its definitely been played during its lifetime. Just for the record I purchased it like this, I've always treated it well whilst its been in my care!

Don't think it's a bartolini pickup, mine is from the same year and is embossed with the brand name.
Seymour Duncan/Lane Poor?
No markings on the pickup what so ever.

This is an ’81 model, in clear nitro finish natural maple which has aged to a nice pale honey tone all over. The woodwork, finish, Gibson-branded Schaller tuners, and 3-point bridge are original. As you can probably see the pick-ups are not; the original black series V humbuckers were replaced 2 owners ago with chrome EB-3 type units (Japanese made, Allparts supplied), and the original Moog preamp replaced by what I was informed is a Bartolini 2-band EQ one. The brass nut and generic Gibson truss-rod cover are also not original, and rear battery cover is missing (One available on reverb). RD Artists have the classiest headstock on any bass ever I reckon, the Gibson logo and “flying note” inlay are real mother-of-pearl.
The controls are; vol / vol / treble boost-cut / bass boost-cut, p/u select (neck/both/bridge), with micro-switches for active/passive (wish every active bass had one!), and phase invert.
Quite simply there is nothing that looks like these basses, or sounds like this one. They are heavy – a big solid chunk of maple, but really ergonomic – if you play fingerstyle (as I mostly do) you can rest your palm on the upper body cut-out whilst doodling away on the strings; so comfortable. Set neck, body-through stringing, extra-long scale (34.5”), and dense maple body means it sustains for ever. Versatile: you can get the muscular EB-3 sound (think Jack Bruce, Jim Lea, Andy Fraser….) but with more punch and top end available, rather more Fender P. The preamp is very effective and hum free but I almost invariably use it passive – just such a rich, growly, ringing tone. I reckon the chrome p/ups look so much more right on an old Gibson too.Unlike Thunderbirds these don't suffer from neck dive; nicely balanced. Due to the construction and xtra long scale makes them ideal for drop-tuning malarky such as BEAD.
It's a bit of a beast coming in at 11lbs/5kg so not for the faint hearted. Comes with carry case made from a keyboard bag full customised to house the bass snuggly. Due to the size and length of the neck I cannot find a hard case, believe me I have looked.
Based in London and work near reading. Pickup much preferred due to lack of hard case, I can meet within reasonable distance and exchange ( Buyer to cover fuel costs).
Will consider postage as last resort.
After £1000 no trades unless Sandberg VM4

1977 Fender Precision P Bass Shell pink with original case
Purchased this a few months back and it's been sat waiting to be played and I've not really had the time to give it. With no time due a new job and a house move coming up I need to thin the herd so unfortunately as the last one in it's gotta be the first one out.
In amazing shape for its ages, the action is currently low and very comfortable. The frets are in great shape. It has a rosewood board with Pearl dot inlays. The back of neck has some wear off of the lacquer from being played but that is the most significant sign of use on the whole guitar.
I'm pretty sure its a refin as the colour is super clean and the paint is perfect. The owner before had it in a studio. Weight of the bass is about 10lbs/4.5kg
Photos are from previous owner and can take more if needed. Last photo is for reference for colour against my Flea Jazz Bass.
Would prefer not to ship due to age and value. PM if necessary.

1 X SL112 cab and case £600 - *SOLD*
in Amps and Cabs For Sale
Posted · Edited by chenzo_1
Multiple parts sold
Finally, it's time to pass this on to a new home where it'll actually get used.
Used live a handful of times but nowhere near its capabilities and was mainly used at home. A job change a couple years ago and the pandemic meant my playing live days are over so they have lived in their respective cases for the last few years. Fully tested and sounding perfect.
A few marks here and there but generally in great condition. Can add more pics if necessary.
Included:
.
SL112 1x12 Neo Cab with Aguilar Cover
£600 for the cab.
Collection from Maidenhead or Theale. Can meet within a reasonable distance of SL6 or consider delivering at buyers cost.
Would consider posting but at buyers cost and risk.
