Olympic bump!

[quote name='karlfer' timestamp='1470236678' post='3104387'] Did I miss the weight of this splendid machine? [/quote] No, but I did - sorry! Bathroom scales shows just approx 8 lbs 12 oz, including bridge and pickup covers. That seems consistent with e.g. [url="http://www.sweetwater.com/store/detail/PBass50LBk"]http://www.sweetwater.com/store/detail/PBass50LBk[/url] (8 lbs 10 oz without the covers). Certainly a lot lighter than my '79 P

Bumpity bump

Bump

Weekend bump - will also include a set of La Bella '54 110 flats and some Fender bridge foam for maximum old school thumpicity

Bump

Also a big thumbs up for Tricky Audio quality, my Dually is built like a (surprisingly light) tank!

The stock pickpups are included with the sale, however I have fitted Fender 'Original Vintage pbass' pickups which have a fantastic full range to them: [url="http://www.thomann.de/gb/fender_vintage_pbass_pickup.htm"]http://www.thomann.d...bass_pickup.htm[/url] . At the same time I swapped the rather flimsy stock pots for Fender CTS pots, and replaced the 0.1uF cap for a 0.047uF, as I found the tone rolled fully off with 0.1 to be too muddy. Rolled off now it gives thump without the mud. I redid all the pickguard screws with a Fender set, as some of them had a spot of rust/wear. Finally I added a Fender bridge ashtray/pickup cover, and a non-Fender maple thumbrest which complements the neck nicely. Strung with Fender Nickel roundwounds 7150M .045 .105 Note: no hardcase, but I will include a basic Ritter softcase. [b]Condition[/b] See photos for a couple of body dings, also the ding on the edge of fretboard halfway between nut and first fret on G side. [b]Sounds[/b] Full working order, sounds and plays beautifully. The new pots and pups really give a lovely range from grind to thump. The neck on these is very playable, don't be put off by the width! [b]Selling because[/b] I already have one P, and now have non-P GAS... [b]Courier[/b] Will be sent insured in a guitar box, well bubble-wrapped with the Ritter soft case. Probably £20 for mainland UK, but will quote accurately when required. [b]Location[/b] Tonbridge, Kent. 20 Mins from J5 M25, trial welcome, but note I will be in and out of the country over the next couple of weeks. Thanks for looking!

Thanks for the kind words folks - after a 90 minute noodle I've decided to keep, the overdrive channel is fantastic. First time I've had GAS for something I already own!

[color=#008000][size=5][b]SOLD[/b][/size][/color] [b]Fender Super Bassman pro 300T 2015 model[/b] [b]For sale only, no trades thanks! £1000 including insured UK courier, £950 collected[/b] [b]Condition and history[/b] Fully working, purchased second-hand from Bass Direct in January. I have gigged it twice, the previous owner apparently did not gig it. [b]More photos [/b][url="https://www.flickr.com/photos/133089969@N07/albums/72157667789051284/with/27661652900/"]https://www.flickr.c...th/27661652900/[/url] [b]Comes with[/b] Fender footswitch (although note this is not the 'vintage' chrome footswitch that this model normally includes), leather sleeve cover, power chord, Fender instrument to Speakon cable. [b]Selling because[/b] I bought this to compete with our band's super loud lead guitar - but that's no longer in the band, so this is overkill. It well and truly did the job when needed though! [b]Overall impression[/b] Gorgeous passive Fender tonestack, and a useful overdrive channel with active mids, deep and bright boosts. Never struggled at all to compete with a noisy 7 (now 6!) piece band. [b]Postage/collection[/b] Collection much preferred! Trial welcome, I have a 2x15 and a P bass, or bring your rig. I'm approx. 15-20 mins from J5 M25 in Tonbridge, Kent. But, it was couriered to me - so it can be done! Packed weight approx. 30 kg. , so I will need to source a suitable box. I can get courier quotes or let me know any preference.

[quote name='three' timestamp='1465726399' post='3070463'] This could be Morocco Red from the Fender a International colour series. There's some debate re: commencement dates, but I've seen Internationals advertised from '79 onwards - one of our Fender experts might be able to help? [/quote] There's a Morocco Red P on Andy Baxter's site at the moment and it does look very similar. But if I am reading the sales post correctly, this is a refinish and not the original colour, Basstardz is that correct?

[quote name='LukeFRC' timestamp='1465634622' post='3069754'] shell pink is lighter I think - coral colour? [/quote] I was going to ask the same - my guess is Fiesta Red, but that could be my monitor? Lovely colour either way
