  1. Y viva Espana - Sylvia Vrethammar
  2. Actually, looking at previous sale prices I will knock off a fiver. £175 posted, £165 collected
  3. This week these two Master Effects pedals arrived from Canada - the Transmission, which mimics the EQ of Hooky's early Yamaha basses, and the Golden Ratio chorus, which is based on the original 70s EHX Clone Theory circuit. The latter is a little bit noisier than I would ideally wish but Tim (Mr Master Effects) said its inherent to the original circuit and it certainly sounds authentic.
  4. Trace Elf in mint condition with box. Bought off the forum from a seller who said it had been barely used (and it looks it). I haven't actually used it once in the 9 months since I bought it, as I haven't needed the back up amp I thought I needed ... seems silly to have it lying around. £175 price includes UK post. If collecting from London SW13, I would knock a tenner off.
  5. Neat little (and very yellow) one knob chorus pedal. Clean sounding and (duh!) easy to dial in the right amount of chorus. Very good condition. Only selling as bought a Master Effects Golden Ratio chorus (vintage Clone Theory based pedal). £70 60 posted. Video of some bloke demo'ing one here
  6. To complete the nerd/fanboi collection I bought these two Master Effects pedals - Transmission (apes the EQ of Hooky's early Yamaha basses) and Golden Ratio (chorus based on original Clone Theory circuit; little bit noisier than I would ideally wish but sounds authentic)
  7. If it was August 1979 in Eric's then it was the Hondo (see pics in link)
  8. New Old Joy Division Bass Day. Just received this 1977 (?) Hondo Ricken-faker, the model made famous by Peter Hook in Joy Division days (before he switched to Shergold Marathon 6 string and Yamaha basses). A few screws missing and signs of age but plays/sounds great and, importantly for me, weighs just 8.2 pounds. Sits nicely next to my Shergold Marathon bass, the Joy Division nerd that I am.
  9. Not having done a deal on BC with the excellent Gareth since 2013, I thought it was about time! So I bought a pedal and - as was the case over a decade ago - everything was splendid!
  10. Bass nerd question: what model is the non-66 RI Jazz lurking behind? Also, does this mark WoT becoming a Jazz afficionado rather than the dedicated Precision guy of the last umpteen years?
  11. A complex and protracted transaction saw me buy Mike's gorgeous Wilcock Mullarkey bass. He was very patient while he waited for me to sell some bass gear to pay for it. Cheers Mike!
  12. Larry bought some TI bass strings off me and all was excellent!
  13. @cetera is after a Soul Food (although I realise that doesn't help you sell as a job lot!)

    Paul C's goodness

    Paul bought a CIJ Mustang bass off me. Perfect deal, great comms, prompt payment and all conducted in a friendly spirit. Recommended!
  15. Stu bought a boutique pedal off me and everything was smooth as a snake! Many thanks and enjoy 🙂
  16. PS, its pictured with La Bella Mustang Superpolished strings (a recently introduced sort of flat/round hybrid). I decided I preferred the regular Mustang flats (pictured in clear bag with tort s/p) which are now back on the bass. However, I am happy to throw in the Superpolished set as part of the deal, so you have options.
  17. Fender CIJ Mustang bass in excellent condition. Bought from top BCer lozz196 a few months back. It really is a fabulous bass and I am only selling to fund the purchase of a bass on this forum that I really desire! Therefore no trades, thanks. Serial number dates it to 2007-2010. Nicely creamy olympic white body. Has an after market black 3 ply scratchplate (as I wanted a punkier/rockier look) but comes with original tortoiseshell scratchplate (pictured). Also has a string retainer fitted to hold A string taut, but this is entirely removable. Weighs just under 8 pounds and comes with new Fender gigbag. Wearing La Bella Deep Talkin' Mustang flatwound strings. Price of £700 is a chunky discount from what I paid, especially considering the new scratchplate, strings and gigbag, but hopefully reflects post-Christmas economic reality. Collection from a safe public space in SW13 London (Barnes) or delivered for an extra £20.
  18. Would also trade for a very good condition/unused set of TI flats (as the existing set on my Ric are years old and a bit tatty at the silks due to removing and refitting many times)
  19. Bought these from StringsDirect for £69 to fit an old 70s Ric, which had previously been wearing TI jazz flats, as I wanted a little more bite to the sound. However, the super low tension (which is >10% lower than TI flats at 122 pounds) of the jazz rounds turns out to be too low to work with the peculiarities of the neck. The A/D/G are unclipped and essentially mint, the E silk is slightly clipped (a couple of inches) but would have no problem fitting well on a 4 in line as well as a 2+2 headstock. Enjoy my financial pain and grab these for £40 plus a few quid for post.
