  1. I'm hoping to get hold of the bass later this week then I'll get something sorted
  2. Sorry for the lack of response, I'm not getting notifications through. I've listed on behalf of my mum so I'm not with the bass often but I can hopefully sort some samples at some point.
  3. Black Stentor Harlequin upright with case and bow, although as it was purchased used it may not be the bow that originally came with it. The bass is in Halifax but you can also try/collect in Sheffield. Blurb from the Stentor website: Features: Laminated spruce front Back and sides laminated maple Brass machine heads Adjustable bridge This is a robust economic double bass designed for rock 'n roll and slap playing styles. The front is made from laminated spruce, back and sides from robust laminated maple. It is fitted with quality brass quarter plate machines and a black hardwood fingerboard.
  4. I picked this up on here last year to give a shorter scale length a try, I've had a lovely time using it on a handful of gigs but I've got something else incoming so I need to make some room. These are really well reviewed; it plays and sounds great, nice and light, surprisingly good B string, super easy to cart around on a train and looks nice to boot. Fits in a Fender short scale gig bag which I'll include, collection preferred but I've still got the box it came to me in so can post if necessary.
  5. Bassix double bass banjo made by Alan Hatswell, purchased from Alan (I believe it was the demo instrument) some years ago and only seen light use since. It has a 3/4 size composite neck and a long removable spike so very adjustable height-wise, can be played acoustically or has a built in pickup. It's in really good condition overall with a few small scuffs, more photos to follow. From the original blurb: Play it like a double bass and acoustically it has considerably higher volume. Not enough for large gigs? Plug in a standard jack lead and connect to bass amp. The onboard dynamic sensors do the rest. It is now like playing an upright electric bass but still has the depth created by the acoustic drum. Constructed from composites with Remo skin, it is not really affected by climatic conditions (temperature and humidity) and is a go-anywhere play-anywhere bass. Suitable for all styles except arco (using bow) the sound both acoustically and amplified is amazing. Finished in white (drum) with black adjustable neck. For airline travel the neck can be simply removed making it possible to carry in a large suitcase (approx 30 x 24 x 10 inches). Maple bridge and Innovation strings give a tone similar to that of a vintage bass both acoustically and amplified.
  6. Apologies for not getting back to you, I'm not getting notifications through. Still available and bathroom scales say 10.5lbs so pretty average Stingray weight

  8. Correct on both of those 😊
  9. I picked this up on here not too long ago to give a Stingray type thing a try, but I think when it comes down to it I still prefer my jazz and I need to buy some other bits and pieces. Won't mind if it takes a while to sell though... This one was made in 2007, great condition for its age with one small paint ding on the back of the body and minor wear around the headstock. It's fitted with a Stingray Classic pickguard and comes with a TGI hard case, I recently had it set up and it's got a newish set of D'Addarios on. You're welcome to come and give it a play or meet up somewhere around York, otherwise happy to courier.

  11. [forgot to bump this for a few months, still available...] These are great budget cabs, just a bit overkill for lots of the smaller gigs I do so I've downsized. Comes with a high quality Hot Covers case, it took a couple of small dings before I got that sorted and there's a few round the bottom from tight car packs but nothing major. I stained the marks black so they're not very noticeable. Specs: 800 Watts, 8 ohm, 21.3 kgs, 29x906x906mm, Neo drivers, speakon and jack in, horn defeat switch. Ideally collection from York or I can deliver if you're not too far off.
  12. Mick sold me a cab in response to my wanted ad; he persevered through technological faff to get it sent nice and quickly, refunded a botched PayPal payment and has been a gent throughout. Top BCer, can't recommend highly enough.
