All complete sets now sold, just the bits described below left - any takers?

I also have four used pairs of the Schaller Straplock bits that go on the strap only i.e. there is no fitting to go on the guitar itself. Of these four pairs, one is black, and three are shiny. £6 a pair seems fair for these, including postage.

Four Thomann PAR56 20w LED lights and gel filters, plus mounting bar, plus padded bag, plus sturdy floor stand, plus two Ryger DMX controller units (one spare), and instructions. Two slight issues, one light doesn’t do blue, and another light doesn’t do green, but they both do all the other colours. That said, I’ve been using them for about four years and nobody noticed. Replacement lights are about £50 from Thomann if you want perfection. The whole rig would probably cost £400 to £500 to assemble from new. Video added of lights in action. Can be set to sound to light, or via a multitude of pre-programmed patterns. Whatever you do, using them really makes your band look that bit more professional and adds atmosphere to any gig. Can be seen working. Collection preferred from near Minehead, or can deliver within reasonable distance. Social distancing rules to be adhered to, please.

Trace Elliot 130 watt bass combo, working perfectly. Fantastic range of sounds, all of them good, and ideal for (loud) home or rehearsal room use, or small gigs. Seven band graphic equaliser, dual band compressor, pre-shape facility, effects loop and a DI and line out. Collection preferred from near Minehead, or may be able to deliver within reasonable distance. Any trial welcome, and can be seen working. Socially distanced rules for collection, please.

Let’s not forget the flying Mr Foxton....

Too late - sold!!

PM’d.

I use iTunes, and purchase any song that I haven’t got, and need, but the song will be downloaded on your PC in M4a format. I then convert it using a M4a to MP3 shareware conversion thingy - your Tascam will probably only recognise MP3 format files. Sounds complex, but it isn’t. I’ll dig out the conversion shareware name tomorrow, if you want it.

First rate chap - good comms, prompt payer, and a pleasure to deal with - many thanks!

Sorry, all now sold.

Last reduction - now a firm £500

Black Crafted In Japan Geddy Lee Jazz bass. Made in 2007-8 according to the interweb look-up thingy. It has mild relic-ing (is that even a word?) and EMG pickups, fuelled by a professionally fitted battery compartment in the rear. Both of these were already done when I bought it - the old thread is here:

It weighs 3.75 kilos, or 8.25 lbs in old money. Condition wise, I’d say 7.5 out of 10. There's a couple of dings as per the photos, but it’s generally in vgc. If I can find the white pickguard, I’ll include it too. Plays very nicely and yes, ‘that neck’ is superb. If you’re local, you’re welcome to come and try it. Spring sale (incoming, so needs to go). No trades, please.

Okay with a halfway meet within reason - I’m near Minehead in Somerset. Happy to ship too, as I have an okay-ish hard case for it, and a decent cardboard box too. Add £40 for shipping (UK only) with insurance and if there’s any change, I’ll pass it back to you.
 

Sorry, it’s sold - I’ll update the ad now.

I’ll be in Milton Keynes on Saturday, and near Oxford on Sunday. Happy to bring this bass with me, if anyone’s interested.

No trades (okay, maybe a Spector)

Only made in 2013, and sold for about £2,100 at the time, I’m told. Weighs 9lb 3oz and is in vgc. I’d give it 9/10 on my own scoring system.

Comes complete with the proper case and all the candy (covers, thumb rest, etc). Any trial or test is most welcome, coffee provided too. Happy to meet half way within reason, or can ship for whatever it costs with insurance (£40’ish?) as I have a decent box (ooh err).

Sadowsky NYC Deluxe 4-21 flame maple, caramel burst, with a Pau Ferro fingerboard. 4A flame maple top, 2 band eq with VTC. Weighs in at 7lb 15oz (3.5 kilos).

I bought this new for £3,600 five months ago to be the bass to end all GAS, but after a few gigs (without it, it’s never left the house) I’ve realised I won’t ever use it in the sort of places where I gig. It’s immaculate, and is staying that way.

Any trial or test is most welcome. Here’s a link to the original BassDirect ad:

The best headphone amp on the market. Everybody should have one!

....er, except me when it sells! It is very good, but my Bergantino amp pretty much does the same job for my (simple) needs. Thanks for the nice words, chaps.
