Withdrawing as a BCer has offered to take a look over the pickup and fix it if necessary

I bought this recently on the forum but it doesn't suit my ply bass. Now my bass is not very resonant, like most ply basses, but it doesn't have much output when I plug into an amp. What I don't know is whether there is an issue with the Realist or whether its simply unsuited to my bass. So I propose that the 'buyer' try this out first and - if it works fine - then pay me. Half new price posted, £90, if it works fine. Sound reasonable? Previous ad (and it looks the same):

Bargainaceous £45 if you take both sets (the LTFs alone would cost £56+ new)

Both sets cut for 2+2 headstock (Serek, Gibson) La Bella LTFs, little used,silks still pretty good. Will last years, £28 posted in UK DR Hi-Beams, on bass for all of 5 minutes before I realised I prefer nickel over stainless steel. About as unused as 'used' bass strings can be. £22 posted in UK

According to an (expired) ad on Reverb, this weighs 14kg (just under 31 pounds in old money): "Ashdown has worked in conjunction with Mark King create an amplifier which meets the UK bass legend’s requirements for absolute fidelity and clarity, precision tone shaping and masses of power on tap for stunning dynamics.

@Ccwg_Bass you were after one of these

Lovely basses, beautifully assembled, with plenty of low end and growing list of fans. In case you want to hear what one of these sounds like, here is me with my orange Midwestern playing through an Orange TB and Barefaced SuperCompact

Best chance is to try sending the seller a PM as their profile page says they haven't logged on to BassChat since April 2021

Jay, out of the case its a standard rackmount size (see bottom line):
