  1. TC Electronic polytune mini 2, unblemished, in original box. I bought this a few weeks ago thinking it was battery powered - alas I don't have a power adaptor or a pedal board, so I will stick with my clip on version. It does require a 9volt supply, which I don't have. If its anything like the clip on version I have, its a fantastic tuner :) Postage or collection from NN3, Northampton.

  2. Bass collection 4 string passive, fretted. In metallic dark blue finish. Rosewood neck, slim and fast.

    Strung with Ernie ball 'greens' - about 2hrs play since restrung and set up.

    Collection from Northampton, NN3 only or will deliver locally. No shipping I'm afraid. Photos available if you pm me.

  3. I have a BA115 - and while it sounds lovely as a practice amp, it doesn't seem particularly loud. I don't gig - so I don't have a reference point - but I would imagine it would struggle to keep up with an enthusiastic drummer in anything else but the smallest venue.

  4. If it's any consolation think of it as I have just saved your back from all that pain :)

    The neck is really comfortable. I have an older Fender Marcus Miller JB - which is very similar, but the 75 feels a bit slimmer to my hands. I have a 2008 American Standard too - which is probably my favourite feeling neck.

    But I just love the look of a blocked neck on a jazz and the whole 70's Jazz Bass vibe.

  5. I was browsing Classic and Cool after seeing another NBD thread on here, and stumbled across this

    http://classicandcoolguitars.co.uk/portfolio/usa-fender-jazz-1975-re-issue-bass-in-natural/

    Arrived this afternoon after a very swift deal.

    Brilliant service from Mark at Classic & Cool, and it's a true player - growls like a tiger!

  6. I'm moving on my Fender Marcus Miller Japan 4 string in Natural Finish. I have been the custodian of this fine bass for about 3 years in which time it hasn't seen any action outside the house. I am guessing it's one of the earlier ones (serial available on request if you'd like to try and check). The pu cover is missing (the piece of chrome, not the plastic on the pu), but everything else is functioning as it should. I've priced this to sell a lot lower than others currently available. Would prefer collection from Northampton NN3 (test drives welcome) - but can ship at buyers cost & there is a brand new Hiscox case available for an extra £25 if you want to take this option. Excuse the poor quality pics - drop me a pm if you want any others.

  7. I think 50% discount is about right as a rule of thumb on used gear - unless its vintage or rocking horse poo. I definitely think the inflated prices we've seen in the past 5 years or so are definitely behind us.

    I've used this formula for many years and has always served me well when it comes to buying and selling. A couple of pieces I've paid slightly more on (but I know I wont sell them on).

    Karl - my jazz was £580 which I thought was very fair
