    Hi, are the pickups on this model the standard 5-string jazz dimensions or are they different because of the 33" scale length? Would the Aguilar AG 5J-HC pickup dimensions fit on this bass? (https://www.aguilaramp.com/wp-content/uploads/aguilar-pickup-5j-v2.pdf) Thanks.

    I sold a MM Stingray to Mick and the entire deal went smoothly. Payment was fast, comms were cordial, and all was well. Enjoy the bass! Cheers.

    I'm afraid not. It hasn't been used much at all. If you are interested and want some recordings, please PM me the details.

    Yes, it’s still got the same strings on

    Thanks for sharing Don. I agree that it is an absolutely wonderful fretless - ergonomic and sounds great! It's in the exact great condition as I received it from you. There is another bass that has caught my eye and as I have too many basses, I have to follow the rule of 1-out for 1-in. I am more partial to 4-stringers now. Unfortunately I haven't used this bass much at all and hence letting it go. Anyone looking for a great sounding and great playing fretless will definitely get a great deal with this one!

    *Sold* traded locally I received this in a trade. It's an early 90s Streamer Stage-1 that has been modified and refinished in a transparent gloss finish in a denim blue colour (with a fixed button to complete the denim look). The hardware is all original. The frets seem to be original and might require some dressing. It is lightweight and has the easiest fastest neck on any bass I've played. Through Neck: 3 piece maple Body wings: Maple Fretboard: Wenge Pickups: Haussel PJ passive (with large magnets) Preamp: Noll 2-band 9V Controls: Vol (Push/Pull = active/passive) + blend + bass + treble (works as tone knob in passive mode) Dunlop strap locks in gold finish included weight: 3.2kg / 7.1lbs

    Another WIndmill owner was kind enough to message me the following information - sharing it here for full disclosure: " I bought <another> Windmill Bass recently also on Basschat. Does look a lot like a Jabba. So I emailed Mayones and asked them whether they did actually build them and Artur did reply and said they did not. So I am guessing they were actually made by Mensinger, their Jazzline is similar though only 4 bolt but in the same pattern as the 6 on the Windmill." The previous seller had advertised it as built my Mayones but apparently he had not verified it. Hence, I have removed the reference to Mayones in my listing.

    Sold and on its way to the UK

    Next buyer's payment on the way - should be sold this time.
  25. TorVic
    First buyer fell through as he can't complete the payment. Will message the next on the list.
