It’s was purchased new two years ago.

Happy to have this bass collected in person. It resides in London (E1W) Postage is also an option. It'll probably be around the £30 mark or so but I'm happy to let the future owner of this bass organise their courier of choice.

It's a city that makes every new resident a native provided that they're able to do certain prescribed things within the confines of a New York Minute. This particular New Yorker was made in Korea and designed in the UK.

According to me digital scale, this New Yorker weighs at 3.5 kg.

It’s 19 mm spacing.

Hohner TWP600B. Edit: It's sold. Gone to a new owner. And, perhaps, may one day may even deliver the bass-line to Anchored Down in Anchorage. It's a 34" Scale slice of Hohner goodness in a fetching shade of Pumpkin Burst. These Hohner Basses were made from 1992-1996 and pack a lot of low-end oomph for your buck/dollar/pound/'add currency here' and size. It features a built-in 3 band EQ and a plectrum-shaped sound hole to assist you in sculpting your very own sonic signature. Yes, I said sonic signature. Deal with it. This very model was used by Michelle Shocked's bassist in the 1990s. Yes, Michelle 'Anchored Down in Anchorage' Shocked. She looked like a person who cared about the low end of her tracks. And so should you. #bemoremichelleshocked The neck is straight. Fretwear is minimal. The only item worth mentioning is that one of the 'sleeves' on D String Machinehead is missing. Does this affect playability? No. Does it give off an image of 'yes, mate, this instrument has seen a bit of action'? Yes. And, in your hands, it may see even more action. There are musicians out there who crave relicing. If you see this missing sleeve as a reward of time, I will have given you an extra desirable feature by default. You should thank me for this. The electronics work as they should. It sounds like a bass. Which is quite remarkable, really. Well, it isn't remarkable at all because this IS a bass. But, alas, this IS the description section for this instrument and you ARE still reading this. Which means you may need to have a word with yourself. Features the legendary CPA-200 preamp. The first preamp to be endorsed by accountants (CPA stands for Certified Public Accountant) in North America. Ok, this is a total and utter fabrication but the preamp IS genuinely flexible and you can adjust your aforementioned sonic signature on the fly (or any other insect of your choosing). To my eyes, this oozes a bit of Gretsch-cool. And, with its Teutonic lineage, it's hardly surprising. This particular model was designed in Germany and lovingly built in Korea. Comes with a gig bag (non-original) and my eternal love.

PS I am happy to have the bass collected in person if required. It resides in London (E1W).

Edit: It's been sold. It’s in TV Yellow. It's an Antoria. 30" Scale. Weighs 3.5 kg. The body is made of solid mahogany. I've replaced the vile stock bridge with a Gotoh unit that came off a 1980s Fender Jazz Bass Special (a Boxer model). The original knobs were replaced with Black Gretsch-style units that look rather dapper. No issues. Plays beautifully.

Trade my Labella Deep Talking 760M (James Jamerson) Flats for your Labella 760FS Set? My Labella Deep Talking Flats 760M (52-110) were installed on my G&L Bass but my neck wasn't loving them. They sounded great and the set has been broken in for a few months. To say they sound thumpingly brilliant would be an understatement. But I need something with less tension. If you've got a Labella 760FS set of flats and fancy summoning your inner-Jamerson, let's talk.

They're EMGs. They're the latest X-Series (more headroom/more dynamic/less sterile). They've got actual dust from music venues on them. And they come in a shade of black that's called Santa Rosa Ebony. Ok, this last bit is a lie. But, for reasons you can't work out, you're still reading this advert. You've only got yourself to blame. Back to the pickups. Rather than go into a rabbit hole via our North American cousins at TalkBass, have a gander at this chap using (and comparing) these pickups: With his dry delivery and 'just crawled out from under a rock' complexion, there's something slightly British about Rodney McG. Enjoy the clips. Blah blah blah blah....these are being sold for £50. It'll be about a fiver for postage in Blighty. A bargain. Genuinely. This sale is for the pickups only. I'm not a pot dealer in this instance (and that's short for 'potentiometer'). Note: If you have an 'original recipe' PJ set in situ on your bass, you'll need to purchase a active tone pot to get these bad boys to work. These pickups work. They sound great. And if you find them too bright you can, dog forbid, turn the tone knob down a bit for a more passive 'vibe'. Yes, I said vibe. It's how I roll. Ultimately, t's better to have highs on tap and be able to tame them than to tweak something that isn't there to begin with.

Edit: Sold! EMG J-Set black 4-string active bass pickups (old style, require soldering). Condition is "Used". But still beautiful in a 'rewards of time' type of manner. This is a used set of EMG J-Set pickups from around the 1990s. They have been installed in my Jazz Bass for the past decade and, unsurprisingly, some dust and/or wear is evident as seen in photos. The set includes wiring, battery connector, 2 volume pots, a tone pot and an output jack (EMG type). The accompanying stock loom is fully wired and, to quote a phrase that our American cousins like to brandish, "ready to go". Mind you, with hindsight, that's also a title of a Republica song. In any case, the phrase is apt for these fine pickups. There are some people who reckon that the older EMGs have 'more mojo' and 'sound better'. In my humble opinion, EMGs are very consistent and these pickups sounded great in situ regardless of their age and/or vintage advantage. I'd happily have kept these pickups my Jazz Bass of choice but, in these very weird times, I had to sell this instrument quite recently and returned it to stock. As a result, this fine set is now superfluous to demands. They're great pickups and the fact that Robert Trujillo has just 'silvered them up' to create his signature set speaks volumes. From Motown to Metal, you'll be well covered with this set. The dust is included with the sale but, for reasons of postage ease, the battery is not. Delivery is Royal Mail Signed For 1st Class or Royal Mail Signed For 2nd Class.

I have a set of vintage EMG J pickups (pre-solderless pots/jack) that I'd like to trade for a Dimarzio Model J Set (or its Schaller equivalent) or Ultra Js. I LOVE these EMGs. And they're great and dynamic. But I just fancy seeing how my bass sounds passive and happen to really like Dimarzio Model J and Ultra J pickups. I'll happily trade my whole EMG J Set (including all the pots and jack) with your Dimarzio equivalent. Go on. Reply. You know you want to.
