    Well to resurrect an old thread, I did regret selling that modulus but kept a watch out from when I realised - back in 2017 - until 2 weeks ago when I spotted my very own bass up for sale in Some Neck guitars in Dublin. Guess what? We’re reunited and it feels so good…..

    Very interesting listening. I'll give the full range speakers a serious think. After all I never complained about the PA sound front of house fed from my amps when I was gigging and they're more than capable of handling bass (fairly obviously...

    Reading some reviews on the FRFR route for bass and many seem to say they just don't cut it for bass. Psychologically I'm drawn to something that looks like a bass cab - no doubt due to standing front of one for years. GR and Berg look good. I take it the blackstar unity series are much lower quality.

    Unfortunately my Euromillions number didn’t come in. Thanks Tony I will keep a watch for one.

    Great questions. 3 piece, guitar, bass, drums, rock and indie. Not especially noisy. Just enough to compete with acoustic drums. Guitarist isn’t too loud. No FoH yet as it’s early days. If I was using a traditional rig I’d probably pick 400w and a 2x12. Budget preferably sub £750 and I’d prefer light as I don’t fancy lifting ceramic drivers in a birch cab any more……I did use Eden and Tech 21 VT500 previously for a bright zingy but deep tone. Thanks for your reply.

    I have a Kemper with some brilliant bass tones loaded so don't want to go down the amp / can route for my backline requirements. Just wondering if anyone has experience of a decent powered speaker / active bass cab? I've seen Blackstar unity active cabs and Berg IPs but has anyone tried a similar setup or have any advice please? Ta.

    Up for sale is my limited run Ferrari red Rickenbacker 4003 bass from 1993 with origonsl case. It plays and sounds great and has the bonus of a hipshot black bridge and I think these were made for just one year so it's very rare. It is in great condition with no knocks or dings & virtually no fret wear so has clearly not been played much. There's no paint wear on the back of the neck, no headstock dings and the only signs of use are some buckle rash marks on the back and some very light surface lacquer cracks. I swore I'd never let this go having sought one out for ages but an unforeseen bill means I have to let this one go. No trades unless its something under £500. Bass is on the Wirral but happy to drive 50 miles or so for a meet up or to ship at the buyer's cost. Thanks for looking and some better pics will be posted tmrw.

    No 11 of 30 and it plays and sounds amazing.

    t Would be very nice and go beautifully with my orange collection.

    Sold an Olympic white jazz deluxe to Peter. He was a pleasure to do business with and the whole selling experience was a doddle. Thanks again.

    My name is actually Vin Orange and when I was younger I was slightly shy and some cads decided my nickname should be Vin Rouge. Hilarious....

    Welcome to the clan Orangeglo No 11 of 30. It fits in nicely with my orange reverse headstock Shuker Jazz.

    You could always buy this Precision Elite from Japan as the deal includes a very rare Modulus graphite neck. I know he’ll take a lower offer (£1585 shipped) too as I nearly bought it. Import duty put me off….. https://reverb.com/item/76642388-free-shipping-worldwide-extremely-rare-fender-precision-special-1980?utm_source=rev-ios-app&utm_medium=ios-share&utm_campaign=listing&utm_content=76642388

    Perhaps a more rudimentary take on the guitar monkey grip? I also hadn't spotted the genius idea of reversing the pots so your controls are easily accessible from the back. Why didn't I think of that on my recent renovation....

    I can’t decide what I like most about that horror. Is it the extra peg aimlessly plonked on the top of the headstock in such a similar shade to the other pegs that you’d never know it was added or the practically invisible neck shim?
  17. vinorange
    Open to offers.
  18. vinorange
    Oh wow that’s cheap……

    No nibbles at £40 so reduced to £30. The clear out has started and I found this control plate in my spares bag. I can’t recall what bass it came from but have a feeling I replaced one of my basses with an East pre so this was surplus to requirements. CTS pots, cloth wiring. Perfect working order. Will post anywhere.

    Up for sale is this Hipshot A style bridge which is string through, top loading, Fender fitment with adjustable string spacing. Great bridges but I prefer Hipshot kickass bridges. Having weighed it in it looks like it’s an aluminium version as it’s 135g without screws. Will post anywhere. Thanks for looking.

    Sold pending payment. Up for sale as is this immaculate Geddy Lee signature high mass 4 string bridge. This was off my USA Geddy Lee jazz but I replaced it with a Hipshot as I prefer them on all my basses. Will post anywhere.

    Thanks for the nod Chris. I knew what I meant!!

    Reduced to £250. I didn’t know how to price this as it’s rare but has been refinished. The nitro black is polished perfectly flat with no orange peel effect in sight. Will give it a polish and add some more pics as it’s been living on top of my bookcase. I wanted a USA Jaguar bass but preferred a graphite neck so I got this body in shambolic condition and refinished it nitrocellulose black. I added a graphite neck, loaded it with Troy Sanders pickups and controls and then, inevitably, got bored and stripped it down and sold all the parts! Last to go is the body as I still thought I’d do a build with P/J format but I’m being told to sell some stuff (you know the score). The USA jags are incredibly rare so unsure on pricing. The last complete Jag on here was £2,200. If I’m being way off then open to offers. Finished with 10 coats of nitro, it should last well. Also it hasn’t got an Anarchy emblem but does reflect our bedroom light fitting which seems to have one….

    I’d expect Pete Wentz to be included for that price.

    Lovely bass and vary rare. I have one that I renovated and it too had much the same patina as yours prior to many many hours of work. Here's a pic of mine 🙂 GLWTS
