Hi mate yes I believe its still here somewhere message me if your interested

Back up for sale. May consider trades/part trades especially for a 5 string xotic

Love the neck on my US lakland, unbelievably comfortable! 

Price drop, treat yourself for crimbo! 

Abd recently bought my shuker singlecut. Communication was excellent and was a very easy no fuss deal. A lovely bass gone to a good home. Enjoy the bass mate! 

My new beauty, needed a proper clean and setup as the action was around 5mm at 12th fret 😂 but now plays and sounds fantastic! 

Just purchased a fly rig from Graham. Quick communication and posted nice and fast. Another easy basschat deal, thanks! 

Just sold a power supply to Paul. Excellent communication and quick payment. Would happily deal with again. Cheers mate! 

Hey people, this is a very tentative sales post for my singlecut shuker and I may remove it at any time! This is a stunning bass in every sense, however I need to accept that I prefer more traditional styled basses so my lakland is always first choice. It was custom built in 2014 for a member on here, there are various past threads in the search box regarding this bass. It's a 34 scale, string spacing is adjustable currently 18mm, lightweight at around 8.5lbs and comes with the hiscox shuker branded case (which has a few marks but does its job). There is one tiny pin prick on the front and a small chip on the lower side of the fretboard, other than that it's in great condition. Has been fitted with two new 9v batteries and a recent set of ernie ball strings. It has a 3 band eq with variable mids and hosts a pair of nordstrand big split pickups. It plays as good as it looks and is a stunning. I'm looking to get back what I paid and I won't be moving on price as its already a steal! I may consider 4/5 string fretted basses as a part trade if its something I could easily sell on later. Any more questions just ask, collection or meet up only. Happy to travel up to an hour from Gosport. If a buyer wants it posted, I can box it up but they would need to organise and accept all responsibility. Thanks and enjoy the pictures

PSU now sold.. The board is nice and compact 50x20cm and comes in a nice carry bag. I've included a picture to show the layout I had for a idea of space (pedals not included). Collection welcome or UK postage included. Thanks 

These should need no introduction. Probably one of the most used tuner pedals available. Has the magic ability to tune your strings instantly making you sound like a much better musician*. A few chips from normal use but functions perfectly. Collection or UK postage included. Thanks 

*results may vary 

Excellent condition spectracomp. Plenty of info online for these, but essentially a simple compressor pedal that can have its settings altered via the app and simulate many different compressors. Excellent condition and in original box. There is velcro on the underside. Collection welcome or UK postage included. Thanks 

Hi all, downsizing my gear so am moving all my pedals on. These need no introduction, awesome preamps which are incredibly flexible. Excellent condition, does have velcro on the underside. I had this sent to darkglass last year and it had a complete new PCB so works like new. I've only used it at home. I did have the box and stickers but cannot find it anywhere so for now will be packed well in a box. If the original turns up obviously I can include/forward it. Collection welcome or postage to UK included. Thanks 

Hi chatters! I have decided to sell my mayones jabba due to a recent shuker purchase! These basses are very high quality hand made in Poland. This is a stunning looking and sounding jazz. It weighs 10.25lbs. It's fitted with the excellent sadowsky preamp that can run active or passive. The action can be set very low, I've also attached a link to the specs etc. I've spent a fair bit this year ordering black hardware and a custom pearl pick guard direct from mayones which I think really sets this bass off. The only thing I haven't changed is the neck ferrule bushes as I couldn't get them! There are a fair few scratches etc to the body from use but nothing that affects how it plays. It will come with all the original chrome hardware as well. I don't have a case for it but if postage was the only option we can sort something so message me. Not really after trades as I need to put some money back in the bank 😁 any more questions message me, cheers!

Were these not all made in Japan.? I thought they were a Japanese company. Im probably wrong. I played one of these at Bass Direct and it was off the chart good. Really punchy through a Genz rig. 

They did a 'pro' series that were assembled in Indonesia I believe and then final setup was done in California. Yeah I love this bass, it is so comfortable to play and does everything and more that a jazz should do! 

Sorry for the delay, she weighs 9.5lbs 

Bought a Shuker off Lawrie this week. He was kind enough to travel an hour and meet me half way making the deal even easier. It's a stunning bass and I couldn't be happier with another brilliant basschat transaction. Thanks again mate! 

It's a stunning bass! 😁 

Another beauty of a bass for sale. Decided to put my xotic jazz up for sale since I've moved to mainly playing 5 strings these days. This is the proper made in Japan xotic. I love this bass and it's one of the nicest to play and best sounding jazz basses I've played. The preamp is very flexible and it has a great passive tone control that works in both active/passive mode. All the specs are online. These basses are fantastic and IMO as good as any USA made jazz. There are a few small marks/scratches from normal use, a few very slight marks on the rear of the neck I assume from a previous owner wearing a ring (these don't affect playing and are very hard to notice) and some of the pots could do with some electrical cleaner - ill try and do this before she goes. Comes with the excellent xotic protec bag and spec sheet. Collect or meet up preferred but can ship at buyer's cost and risk. 

Thanks! 

She's coming in at 10.75lbs 

Hey folks, I have decided I need to sell a few as my idea to have two basses has somehow ended up having 5 with a potential new arrival as well!

Its a yamaha BB1025X. 34" scale, narrow nut circa 43mm with 18mm bridge spacing. Volume, tone, pickup selector- simples. These basses are easily one of the best value for money basses you can buy and I may withdraw if I decide which of the others to let go. It plays great and has an amazing passive tone. Massively punchy, far more so than my active mayones/lakland. There are light scratches to the back and scuffs to the pick guard from popping etc, however they are very hard to photo due to the shiny blackness. It comes with a very nice yamaha padded bag. The strap locks will be removed and original buttons refitted. I would prefer to meet or collection however I have a box and bubble wrap so can post at buyers cost/risk. No trades please and I'm not looking to move on price. Thanks

Spotted this earlier, bargain price for someone local to it! Well worth it even at the BIN price

I've found my preference is both pickups on, tone rolled back slightly. However the P pickup does sound fantastic! 

So having owned plenty of basses I've never had a yamaha, until now 😁. Thought I'd take a chance on this bb1025x as I've always wanted to try one. A fresh set of rounds later and I love it! Always been more of a jazz bass guy but figured I needed some sort of P in my life. This has got such a huge passive tone! The neck is a lovely satin finish and it plays great! It has definitely held its own against my other more expensive basses so happy days. I play my other basses in passive usually anyway however the simpleness of the bb's controls is so refreshing. Anyway, terrible picture incoming.. 

Evening basschatters. One fortnight ago on a rainy Wednesday eve I had abit of time to myself in which I decided to browse the bassdirect website to look at some dirty pictures. A day later this arrived at my door... Not sure how that happened. After some hours of noodling I have come to a final decision that I prefer more "traditional" style basses ie my mayones and lakland. This means I'm sadly looking to move it on to a new home. It's a 2006 Warwick thumb 5 dirty blonde Ltd edition. Made for one year only these are stunning looking basses and obviously being a warwick the build quality is about as good as it gets! It plays great and is in very good condition with a few minor marks (I will get more/better pictures tomorrow daytime). It's light weight around 8.8lbs and comes with a warwick rockbag. Collection/meet up to an hour away preferred but I have the gig bag and box so could wrap it and post but would be fully at buyers risk. Not looking to move on price as these are very hard to get, not really after trades however I'm only human so feel free to ask. Thanks!
