  1. Thanks. Yeah and they look cool too! I’ve switched to Ibanez basses now and it doesn’t get played any more.
  2. Excellent condition, low action, great sound. All fully working, no issues. Kept in high quality Yamaha case (included) only gigged a few times. These are currently £900 new. £600 Posted SOLD Full Description Thanks to a pair of powerful custom V7 pickups, you are provided with an incredible tonal range. Designed with alnico V magnets, the 734A delivers a fat, penetrating tone which perfectly complements the alder/maple/alder body. These organic, well-defined pickups have been carefully selected for the 700 series, ensuring players receive a uniquely versatile performance with the classic BB tone. Yamaha’s BB 700 series of bass guitars also comes equipped with powerful active/passive circuits, specially tuned to offer fine tonal control and extreme flexibility. Featuring a pickup balancer, active/passive switch, and 3-band EQ, you can dial in incredibly crisp tones and enhance the bass' tonal properties for the ultimate experience. Designed for excellence The BB 734A's body has been constructed from a unique blend of maple and alder, which increases the overall stiffness for an accentuated midrange to cut through dense mixes. The dense maple centre provides a more uniform transmission of vibrations between the body and neck than traditional 1-piece bodies, delivering an unparalleled resonance and sustain. The alder top and bottom provides the bass with a lusciously smooth, deep bass tone, beefing up the midrange while adding a slight sizzle to the high end. The maple/mahogany combination of the neck delivers incredible stability, while offering the best of both tonewoods for a bright, mellow sound. It has been designed with an incredibly thin profile, improving its playability and feel to suit modern and traditional players. Coupled with a rosewood fingerboard, the 3 woods provide the bass with a complex high end and a smooth playing experience. Its neck is attached with a 6-bolt miter neck joint, offering a more efficient transfer of string vibration thought the body than conventional bolt-on joints. The joint holds the neck closer to the body to provide a tighter hold and improving sustain and resonance. Vintage Plus bridge The bass’ vintage plus bridge enhances the overall sustain and resonance of the strings by incorporation a unique ‘diagonal body through stringing’. This is achieved by angling the strings at the saddle to pass through the body at a 45-degree angle, placing less stress on the strings as opposed to the more traditional vertical stringing. This method allows the bridge to transfer the string vibrations to the body reliably and efficiently. The vintage plus bridge also allows the strings to be attached to the tail end and features an offset saddle for the low B string.

  4. Sire P5 Precision Bass. Excellent condition. As new. Looks unused. "The P5 is a newly-designed Sire bass guitar, joining the acclaimed Marcus Miller lineup. Taking heavy inspiration from vintage precision-style instruments, Sire's utilitarian P5 model has plenty of classic character with its timeless body shape and solid construction — dishing out thumping low-end tones via a lone, middle-mounted split-coil pickup. Further noteworthy appointments include a rock-solid roasted Maple neck with a rolled-edge fingerboard, medium-sized frets, open-gear tuners and a genuine bone nut. Available at a fantastic price-point to boot, like all Sire instruments, the P5 is a versatile bass that perfectly blends traditional allure with modern refinement." (Last 2 photos from the Anderton's website) Delivery charge £25.00 includes full insurance, or buyer arranges. Listed elsewhere too.
  5. Sire P7 2nd Generation Precision Jazz P/J Bass. Good condition. Upgraded knobs. Great bass with upgraded Aluminium control knobs. In good working order, almost new condition. Just one thing ....I put a couple of small rectangles of velcro, either side of the output jack, to attach my wireless transmitter. (See picture) I've pulled them off, but it has left some glue residue. This will come off, without any damage, if you use the right solvent.

  6. SOLD Fender USA Highway One Jazz Precision Bass with J-Retro 01 Pre-amp, Badass II bridge. It was a Jazz, now it's a P/J. Ok, there's a bit of a story behind this one: I bought this bass used approx 10 years ago and although the bass was fine, someone had made a really bad job at trying to "relic" it. The original finish was red nitrocellulose. It looked like someone had deliberately scuffed off the paint (in a really artificial way) and maybe repeatedly hit it with a bunch of keys! So, I removed the remains of the nitrocellulose paint and painstakingly "refinished" the body using some wood dye and Wudtone waxes and finish. It literally took weeks! It's still very irregular and has various pits and scratches, but I think it looks cool, like it's been used and has aged. There is nothing structurally wrong with this guitar. The neck is straight, has a low action and the truss rod works. The back of the neck has a few dings in it. Nothing dreadful. I don't notice them when playing it. You may be able to "heat them out" but I haven't tried, as it doesn't bother me. I also fitted a John East J-Retro 01 Pre-amp (currently retailing at £187.50) this works brilliantly. The last modifications are the Bakelite pickguard and a Fender Pure Vintage '62 Precision Bass® Pickup (currently £105.00 from fender) in the neck position. The bridge pickup is the one that came with the bass. If you wanted to, the pickguard and pickup could be changed back to Jazz Bass, and the extra routing for the P-Bass pickup filled. I don't have the original Jazz pickguard or pickup any more. It's hard to put a price on this bass. They seem to be selling for £1000 ish on Reverb, but they'll be in stock condition, but ......no expensive preamp! I could be open to offers! Please note this bass is also listed elsewhere. Postage is £25.00 insured, or you can arrange. Body: Alder Neck: Maple, Modern "C" Shape (Satin Polyurethane Finish) Machine heads: Standard John East J-Retro 01 Pre-amp Fingerboard: Rosewood, (9.5" Radius/241 mm) No. of frets: 20 Medium Jumbo Frets Bridge: Badass II Hardware: Chrome Scale length: 34" Width at nut: 1.500" Fender Pure Vintage '62 Precision Bass® Pickup (Neck) Standard Vintage Alnico Magnet Jazz Bass Single Coil Pickup (Bridge)

  9. SOLD Hartke Kickback KB15 Bass Combo & Padded Cover. Excellent condition. Only used a few times. Good quality Padded cover. Here's what Hartke say about it: "Kick-Drive.

Retaining the classic enclosure, the Kickback KB15 now features Hartke's patented HyDrive Speaker Technology. With 500 watts of Class D power, the Kickback KB15 is ruggedly portable and delivers serious bass tone that cuts through the mix. The HyDrive Design The KB15's 15" HyDrive speaker features carefully crafted paper/aluminum hybrid cone drivers. The hybrid makeup delivers an exceptional blend of warmth and attack that can't be attained by traditional all-paper bass speakers. The use of rare earth neodymium magnets also helps to maintain lightweight portability without sacrificing any of the legendary Hartke attack. Shape Your Tone Designed to produce a responsive bass tone that’s both tight and warm, the KB15 provides users with comprehensive tone control. Quickly dial in tone adjustments with the Shape knob and full 3-band EQ. When activated, the Shape knob selects the frequency range of a unique, fixed EQ curve, resulting in a greater variety of color and harmonics. Kickback Versatility Beyond sitting upright, the KB15 can be placed in “kickback” position for superior directionality and increased high-end clarity on stage. With a headphone output for home practice, an XLR direct output for live performance and a lightweight Class D amplifier, the KB15 is the answer for all bassists."

  10. SOLD. SIRE MARCUS MILLER V7 2nd GEN ALDER 4-STRING BASS. Very good condition. Only played a few times. Never gigged. NOW SOLD
  11. Those are the ones.....very analogue Dx and Moog sounding. They're not as good as the C4, but close enough in a live mix.
  12. They have improved, but just not that much!
