  1. Evening folks, I recently got hold of this beauty in a deal however I'm only really playing 5 strings these days so am trying to make myself sell it! This is a parts bass, I believe it was originally put together by a member of this fine parish. It comprises of a stunning lakland USA neck, which I believe although a precision profile neck, has the slimmer 38mm nut width. Like all lakland necks it is incredibly nice to play. The tuners are hipshot, dunlop dual design strap buttons, I believe the pickup is a lindy fralin with cts pots. I was told the body is alder and the bass has had a relic treatment with a nitro refinish by DG relics. She's very comfortable at 8.05lbs and sounds like any good p should. Collection or meet up preferred, but will post at buyers risk and cost. Not really after any trades however feel free to ask, especially if you have a 5 string stingray. Any questions please ask. Thanks!
  2. Evening folks, decided to see if there's any interest in my made in Japan PB57 precision bass. Serial number dates it as a 1993/94 bass, it plays and sounds great. Most people rave about the quality of Japanese made instruments and I can see why. This has a lovely feel to it and is a lovely solid bass. The bass has lived, it has multiple scratches and paint chips (I've tried to photograph it best I can) and the hardware has tarnished (very nicely in my opinion!) however non of it affects the way it plays. Any trial welcome, would much prefer a collection but could look into postage or a meet up. Thanks!

  3. Just sold Mike a set of strings in a very trouble free and quick sale. Would happily deal with again, enjoy the grounds!
  4. Selling a set of elites 45/105 groundwound strings. These are stainless half rounds, I fitted them for half an hour before deciding I just prefer rounds. Cut for a 34" scale fender P bass. UK postage included in the price

  5. Used set of daddario pro steels 45/130 strings. I've had these fitted for about 3 months on a home use bass. So they're worn in but still have the stainless bright and aggressive tone. Cut for a 35" scale lakland 3/2 headstock. UK postage included in price
  6. Evening folks, very uncertain about this one... I bought this stunning lakland 5594 at the start of the year and told myself it was an upgrade to my 5514 which I would sell to justify it. However, I have had my 5514 for a good few years and can't bring myself to sell it. So, this beast is up for sale. It's a very early example and in fantastic condition, with only some very light marks/scratches that I'm struggling to photo. It's fitted with the bartolini electronics which all work perfectly. Hipshot USA hardware. It has a stunning flame maple neck with birdseye board that looks so good! I'd much prefer collection or meet up with this due to the value and so any buyer can check it out in person. Not after any trades, however would consider a trade (if its something I could sell easily enough) plus a minimum £1800 cash my way if it helps find a new owner! Any questions please feel free to ask, I can try and get better pictures if needed
  7. Evening folks, for sale here is my 1983/84 Squire SQ precision bass. This is a lovely lightweight bass that plays and sounds fantastic. It's clearly lived and has multiple scratches and chips (I've tried to photo them however can get better pictures if wanted) however it is a 40 year old instrument! I bought this and was sold it as mostly original however after abit of research it turns out it's not. The pickguard and controls are not original (which I was aware of) the pickup is. It also appears to have had the tuners and bridge replaced, possibly with JV parts. The bridge has threaded saddles and the tuners are reverse wind. It's a great precision and would make a great gigging bass. Any questions please feel free to ask. **There is another one of these for sale on here currently and I have priced it lower, not to undercut the seller but due to the non original parts.
  8. Good price and I'm fairly local 😬 must resist!
  9. I used to have a schroeder 1212L years ago and it was ridiculous how much air it could move for such a lightweight cab! Cut through a loud band with ease. GLWTS
  10. Joe recently bought my Fender jazz bass in what was a very easy basschat transaction. Prompt payment and good communication, would happily deal with again. Enjoy the bass!
  11. Just sold my lakland 44 02 to Tim. Really good communication and a very easy basschat sale. He paid promptly and I would be happy to deal with him again. Enjoy the bass!
  12. No my friend, still with me! I keep considering keeping it but I'm just not playing 4 strings much anymore
  13. This used to be mine a few years ago, it's such an amazing bass. The neck is one of the nicest I've ever played!
  14. Hi, the nut width is 41mm and 12th fret width is 55mm. I'd say the shape is a D shape, it's not a very deep neck. It's a very easy and comfortable neck to play. Bridge spacing is 19mm so feels very familiar if you're a fender kinda person
  15. Hi all, in my quest to downsize the collection I have decided to sell my deluxe jazz bass. This is a lovely bass to play and does exactly what a good jazz bass should... Sound like a jazz bass! All the tech info can be found online, but it has an active 3 band eq plus active passive switch with passive tone control. Has awesome black pearl block inlays and is a very resonant sounding bass with probably the best 34" B string I've played. Negative points are one of the B string saddle screw heads is rounded (I will try to replace before it goes) and the output jack is slightly loose. The lead doesn't fall out or anything but doesn't engage as securely as it should - does not affect the sound etc but just being honest. The neck has one small mark on the back edge G string side that doesn't affect playability. The body as had a few chips and quite a few shallow scratches/indents that are very hard to photo, I have attached photos but any viewing is welcome. Original deluxe hardcase includes which has a crack on the underside and is scratched but does it's job. Will listen to sensible offers and not really after any trades but im only human so feel free to ask. Collection or meet up preferred but can probably post at buyers risk and cost. Anything else just ask, thanks!

  16. Hi everyone, decided to sell this awesome bass as I'm only using 5 strings these days! I'm a huge lakland fan and this one does not dissapoint. One of the comfiest necks in the business combined with amazing tonal versatility makes these basses so good! Plays and sounds great, everything works as it should. It has been played so there are some light marks etc from normal use. Fitted with dunlop dual strap buttons. Weight is approx 9.6 lbs. This version is fitted with the lakland pickups/preamp. Not interested in any trades or offers please as it's already priced to sell. I may have a spare hardcase and box if postage was needed however would be at buyers cost/risk. Otherwise collection or a meet up is preferable. Any questions just ask. Thanks
  17. Zbynek recently bought one of my laklands. He was very easy to deal with and had great communication. Paid very quickly and made an overseas sale incredibly simple. Would happily deal with again, thanks and enjoy the bass 😁
  18. Thankyou! Yeah I did see their one and this bass new is over £4k, however I find more "boutique" basses like this never seem to hold value like they should. To be honest it may be off to bassdirect soon if no takers!
  19. I know I will it is an awesome bass 😂, the preamp is made by fibenare. They make everything on the bass in house apart from the tuners and strings
  20. Send me a private message and we can chat
  21. Hi, for shipping abroad I'd want the buyer to organise it. I'm happy to box it up and drop it off somewhere but any shipping costs/liability would be with the buyer. Thanks
  22. Yeah I went abit mad over the last 18 months and need to trim the herd 😂
  23. Hi all. Have decided to see if there's any interest in my lakland 55 AJ. Stunning looking, playing and sounding bass. It's been fitted with a brand new sadowsky preamp. These preamps are great, runs a volume blend tone with a push pull for the active 2 band. It has an incredibly punchy and clear tone, helped with the typical lakland B string! Weighs in at approx 9.9lbs. There is one main mark/ding in the top of the body which I've tried to show, along with some light surface scratches front and back that are very hard to photo. Trial is welcomed, collection preferred but would consider a meet up or postage at buyers risk/cost. Any other questions or more pictures just ask. Thanks.
  24. Alot of bass for little money!
  25. I've just fitted a sadowsky preamp to a lakland jazz bass of mine and I can highly recommend it. It's 4 pots, vol balance tone and a stack bass treble. Has a push pull passive switch on the tone pot. I got it from thomann for about £160 and it sounds awesome. I usually run it passive but the active controls are there should I ever need them
