    Looks a nice bass @stewblack :)
    Never played a Bass Collection P bass - but I've heard good reports
    Belated Happy NBD to you

    Likewise - they are my go to flatwound strings. I think they sound and play brilliantly.

    Plus they are a bargain direct from the Bass Centre.

    SOLD - Bass Collection Precision Power Bass in China White - Now £195

    SOLD

    Bass Collection Precision Power Bass - China White

    In mint condition with no dings or scratches. The bass comes with new recently fitted Elites Detroit flatwound strings plus a Wilkinson vintage style upgrade bridge.

    The stock EMG style pickups are punchy and noise free. The bass has plenty of sustain and a quality finish throughout. The frets are nicely finished with no sharp edges and are nicely leveled. This bass comes with a fast neck that is narrower than on a standard precision bass plus the bass is light.

    The truss rod moves freely both ways and the allen keys are included. The only mark is a small impression in front of the bridge plate from the stock bridge where the earth wire was pressed against the body (see pic).

    The stock Elites Nickel Player Roundwound strings are also included and are still fresh sounding (they were taken off when the bass was bought). The stock dome knobs are also included (the bass comes with upgraded solid knurled knobs fitted).

    For more information and reviews view the Bass Centre website: Bass Centre

    No trades + pickup only please.

    SOLD - Epiphone Thunderbird Classic IV-Pro Vintage Sunburst + Accessories

    in Basses For Sale

    Posted · Edited by nickcarey

    SOLD - Please remove

    In excellent condition with extra accessories - over £435 worth new!

    The bass has very light wear form low usage with no dings. The powerful USA Ceramic pickups help the bass cut through the mix.

    The neck is fast and easy to play. It’s really narrow at the nut. It feels slimmer than a jazz bass neck. The truss can be moved freely both ways. This Thunderbird balances better than other versions that I have tried. Additional strap holes are also in place for a modern setup as used by some endorsers depending on preference. This one measures as 9 lbs on the scales.

    A well-padded Thomann case is also included that is also in excellent condition with low usage. A Gibson polishing cloth and polish are also included. All the original documentation and tags are included along with the stock strings.

    No trades + pickup only please.

    Picato Bass Strings - Just the 3 spare nickel roundwounds left!

    in Accessories & Other Musically Related Items For Sale

    Posted · Edited by nickcarey

    I'm having a clearout of my roundwound strings due to my transition to flatwound strings. These roundwounds have a smooth finish and produce less fret and finger noise. They also cause less fret wear. I can't rate these strings highly enough and would go back to them in a heart beat if I went back to roundwounds. They are well worth trying!

    3 New Picato Nickel Roundwound Stings 45, 65, 85 (735LS) - £9  Now £6.50

    Later addition: Picato 45-105 Steel Roundwound Strings - still fresh with little use (cut 4 in-line) - £8.50 - SOLD

    New set of Picato 45-105 Steel Roundwound Strings - £12.50 - SOLD 

    Lightly used set of Picato 45-105 Nickel Roundwound Strings (735LS) - £8.50  SOLD

    All the strings have hex cores and have a smooth finish. As used by Bob Daisley, Pete Way and Roger Glover.
