Sold John my big box qtron..... He has been, throughout, and despite a glitch on my part, really friendly, reliable and patient, and an absolute pleasure to do business with. His reputation precedes him, but, just in case anyone is still wondering, absolutely recommended !!

Just bought a Nordell Powercore from Ian. From the outset he has been communicative,helpful and just plain nice.....and the Powercore arrived less than 24hrs after payment ! Bit of a dude when it comes down to it , and absolutely recommended !!

For sale, my gorgeous Olympic white alder/ maple neck Tokai Hard Puncher P Bass. I bought this about 6 years ago from a Swiss bass player....I wanted a classic 70s P and a bit of research suggested these are....well, you probably know how good they are. It has some " issues"....effectively, it's been a bit tampered with...previous owner had put a F..... decal on; I meant to change it back but never got around to it. He also changed the tuners to enormous schallers; the ones now fitted are off a mid 80s Fender MIJ bass and are the right sort for the bass The wear is real...the white has aged to a gorgeous custardy cream with a little wear-through in places. It has it's share of dings...and an odd drill hole beside the neckplate....strange strap placement, perhaps. The neck is just amazing....now a fabulous amber hue, straight and true and delicious to play...just the right handful There is a crack in the finish by the E tuner, but it is not through the wood and is stable. Nut is a smidge under 42mm....weight is around 9lb 1oz in old money...neck pocket is tight....truss does it's thing. It's a fantastic bass ... but I'm after something, so it's for sale. No trades, really, unless you have a decent octave pedal and some cash. But money, as they say, talks. Listing from my phone....in case there are any absurd spelling mistakes.... Will add some pics later this evening. This is a vintage P bass for a quarter of the cost of the other sort that it looks very like...pity about the decal fakery.... but at least the mojo is real! Sounds like DeeDee...Simonon...Pete Farndon...which is what I was looking for, and maybe you are too....?

Steff bought my Jazz neck.... what a nice guy...completely straightforward and honest; wouldn't hesitate to deal with him again and would recommend him to others without reservation. Thanks Steff, it was a pleasure.

Jazz neck now sold For sale, two Fender bass necks:(1 now sold) Still for sale, a Fender MIM Nate Mendel P bass neck, aged/relic'd amber nitro this time, and a lovely figuring on the rosewood board. This neck has a nut width of 40.45mm, and the standard heel width. Though factoy lightly relic'd, this neck has had very little use and the frets are essentially as new. I'd like £250 for this neck, shipped with insurance. Reason for sale is the relatively familiar story...I've played Jazz basses for years, but very slight arthritis means I find wider necks more comfortable now. I got the NM neck as I hoped it would be a sufficient increase in width, but it's turned out to be not quite enough. Both fabulous necks though.

I also bought a nitro P-bass pickguard off Simon. It arrived quickly, is exactly as described and the whole transaction was smooth and seamless. At every stage communication was excellent and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend him as a trading partner.

Ooh, I like these! Youth - everything rolled into one massive punkydubbyfunky racket! Kim Clarke - never mentioned, but so great with Defunkt Jah Wobble - so inspirational Bill Laswell - to this day Robbie Shakespeare - no explanation needed.

Just bought a P scratchplate from Ted.... A small thing, you might say, and you'd be right....but he still went to endless trouble, it was exactly as described, really well packaged and arrived superfast. An absolutely trustworthy trading partner and a very nice guy.

I am utterly gutted...for all the preening he was a spectacular talent and the world feels emptier without him. This year feels like a massacre!

Bought Dan's Eden cab. Took a while to get organised and he has been, throughout, extremely helpful, patient and such a nice guy. If you trade with him you can do so with absolute confidence. Thanks Dan.

An RKS A Bass with hard case for £260. I realise that these basses....divide....opinion, but I absolutely love it and the fact that I don't bump into one at every jam night is a plus. And for the workmanship, materials, desigh integrity and playability, I think it's a massive bargain. I chalk this one up against the Wal Custom I let go for £275 some years ago......
