Heavy heart this one. Bought around this time last year as I was in another wavering back and forward between 4 and 5 string phase. But the time has come to strip my gear right back to the bare bones and, as much as I love this bass, the ACG Recurve 5 I have just pips it at the post and was made to my specs. Alder body, ash top, full wenge neck, gotoh tuners, ACG filter pre with passive tone and battery indicator. Does a rather splendid Justin Chancellor impression if that's your thing, but can do pretty much everything besides! Bass was serviced by Alan Cringean before I took ownership of it. There are a few few little marks along the top edge of the fretboard that are difficult to photograph, otherwise it is in perfect shape. £900 including hiscox case. Courier no problem at your cost. **EDIT: As I'm on the clear out journey I'm not accepting trades on this one.**

Time to thin out the collection I'm afraid. This is probably one of my favourite pedals, but I've just spent a small fortune on plugins and an audio interface and the band is turning into a studio based project by the look of things so Neural DSP's Parallax has me covered for the territory this pedal gets me into. Don't be put off by the Kings X/Pinnick tones available (which aren't really my thing but do sound good), this is SO much more flexible. It's slightly gritty punch in a box, great compressor (and I HATE compressors!) and a tuner thrown in. Really reactive to picking dynamics and passive tone controls. My primary use was to get something approaching my tone of choice from rehearsal room rigs and I've used it with half a dozen different setups in various rehearsal rooms and it's delivered every time, even in the most questionable of circumstances!!! With original tin, sticker, instructions and wall wart. UK shipping included.

The time has come to significantly thin the herd so up first is my Exotic Mahogany Kala U Bass. Model with the shadow pickup and preamp. Currently strung with Aquila Thunderguts, which are the best aftermarket strings I've found for this particular bass. I'm including the original black tube pahoehoe strings, a set of Pyramid roundwounds and, of course, the original form fitting semi-rigid case. Courier is fine at your expense. Would be VERY well packaged. Apologies, I'm the worst photographer on the planet...

...but easily modified to be good with active basses, like the mastotron is... if you know one end of a soldering iron from the other that is!

Wish I was closer. I'd be having this. My first run C110 is the amp that will always stay with me...
