You are Eagle Eyed. I accidentally uploaded my ‘before’ photos.. Here is how the modified back of the pickup currently looks. And, just for reference - the front of the pickup even looks more fetching in this lighting.

Aguilar AG 4M 4-string Music Man Style Pickup Here is what Aguilar's blurb says about this great pickup: Features excellent string-to-string balance, consistency of tone and rich harmonic content. Our M- Style pickups re-create the classic Stingray® tone while adding the characteristics that Aguilar pickups are known for – excellent string-to-string balance and consistency of tone. Wired in parallel, these pickups give players crisp treble, articulate midrange and thunderous lows. The AG 4M Pickup is direct replacements for 4-string Music Man style basses. Wire: 42-gauge Formvar wire Magnets: Alnico V Leads: Single conductor, heat resistant Teflon® coated Here is what I have to say: This pickup was used in Sandberg instrument which allowed for: - Series - Parallel - Single Coil I bought this pickup to replace the instrument's original Delano unit that I struggled to love. And, oh my word, what a difference it made. Suddenly I felt like I had a 70s Stingray in my hands and yet there was still plenty of high-end on tap to get me into the most modern of modern Ray tones. Thanks to a costly MOT, I had to part with my Sandberg (which I returned to stock) and this pickup is (sadly) surplus to requirements. It Ray-shaped. It's Ray-sounding (but even more so). And you've got the option to go Parallel/Series/Single Coil. My tech set it up this way so you're not just a slave to the default Parallel mode.

It’s a Dimarzio. It’s Relentless. It’s curvy. Billy Sheehan approves. It’s Gold. For those bassists who are not fans of Spandau Ballet (you are GOOOLD!), the pickup is turning a silvery chrome (Relic Realness) thanks to the rewards of time. It sounds huge. It’s really big sounding. Did I say it sounds big? I am not bigging up the bigness for the sake of bigness. It's also articulate. Big-ticulate, if you will. But you may not. You're still reading my babble. Please reconsider your life changes. Or buy this pickup. It's going cheap.

I can source a robust box for the bass. Bicycle boxes are a good option. Thanks for your interest. The bass is currently on eBay at the moment with bids. The auction ends on Wednesday.

No.

Here iis the Gretsch in action. I am not a great plectrum player but this northern soul classic called for it. As you’ll notice, the sound is on point and refined. My Movie 6.mov

You're right. It IS sick filth. The truth is that a new alternator on my (normally) trusty (ancient) Volvo has set me back some serious ££££ and some basses I love have to go.

These punch well above their weight. Mike Kerr from Royal Blood used one all over their first album. The neck is slim and fast. The colour is ‘none more black’. The truss rod works as it should. The frets are in great shape. The pickups, which are single coils btw, are high output but articulate. Short Scale (30.3) it is a fab instrument. And fun to play. And records beautifully. Collection from East London. or Meet within the confines of the M25 or I can send it, you’ll just need to arrange the courier.

Yes, indeed, it is. It’s a great bass. I am just not using it as much as it deserves. And that’s not fair on this beautiful gold beast. I would live for it to remain in the family…..

Orange O Bass MKII - 2022 Model - Black - 34iin Scale The Orange O Bass sounds lovely but it gets some shade for the following elements that I have remedied: Neck Dive I installed a high mass bridge. And replaced the machineheads with Resolites. The Neck Dive is virtually non-existent (which the unflattering photo of yours truly will confirm). Playability The set-up was pants when I got this bass. I replaced the nut with a bone version and the strings are set for a much more comfy 41mm type of width. The stock pickup sounded ok but putting in an EMG Geezer Butler pickup really brought his bass to life. The pickup is 4mm closer to where a P Bass pickup normally is located and it creates a fuller yet in-your-face tone that I REALLY love. It comes with an Original O-Bass Gig Bag. I cannot stress how great this bass sounds. I have two O Basses (this was my back-up) and, as I can only use one bass at a time, it seems silly to have it taking up space. Beautifully setup and playable. 3.7 kg And it balances ok with a strap. Collected preferred (I live in East London). Happy to meet up within the confines of the M25 via car. Happy to send it provided that the new owner sorts out the courier.
