Up for sale is this rather clever 75 watt, 2 x 5", Ashdown B-Social desk top practice amp. It's like new and is a packed full of features. The cleverest feature is that you can hook up your ipad or iPhone through the apptek port and use amp simulation apps like bias fx, jam up, amplitude or ampkit to customse your sound (that includes bass or lead guitar simulation). You can have 2 instruments plugged in (so you can have 2 people rehearsing through it) and it has an audio in so you can plug your ipod in too. That's 2 guitars, one ipad and an ipod. Guitar input can also work wirelessly via the wireless dongle which plugs straight into your instrument. Music can be streamed via your phone and connected via Bluetooth instead of plugging it in. The connectivity options are really good. It also has recording capability as there is a USB port and it's compatible with PC or Mac. Anyway, it's like new as I've hardly used it (maybe it has too much for a simple soul lile me). I have the original box so it can be safely shipped too. Jazz bass and ipad not included in sale! Here's what Ashdown say; Straight out of the box, B-Social delivers signature Ashdown bass tone via a powerful 75W stereo amplifier and two custom dual concentric 5” drivers, specifically designed to deliver punchy low-end in the most compact enclosure. Unlocking further tonal possibilities, the App-Tek socket allows players to access the ever-growing range of amp sim and effects apps available on Smartphones and devices, including Ashdown’s very own ABM Pre App. Wireless Allowing the bassist to roam at home, B-Social features wireless audio connectivity and a transmitter that lets the bass connect wirelessly to the amp for cable free jamming. Wireless Bluetooth audio connectivity also enables audio streaming from any compatible music player. Adding a new social dimension to the amp, the B-Social includes a second input so the bassist can play along with another bass player or guitarist - electric or acoustic. “It’s a simple feature - and obvious - but so often over looked by amp companies,” says Mark Gooday. “Being able to plug into a single amp with a friend or band mate makes B-Social a great tool for collaborative writing and recording.” Recording Recording itself is made simple via the built-in USB audio interface, compatible with all major DAWs on both PC and Mac platforms. The unit features a speaker mute switch for headphone monitoring. Connectivity Rounding out the feature set is a Line In, Line Out and a Headphone Out for silent practice.

Now £550 including UK postage.

SOLD. Up for sale is my 2004 / 05 Non Export Made In Japan Aerodyne Jazz bass. Trades just added. May take a cheap Mex Jazz or Precision in exchange with cash my way. Reduced to £550 including insured UK postage but only with a gig bag. Grab a bargain. The non export version is rather rare and differs from the normal export Aerodynes in that it has a pick guard and has chrome hardware instead of smoked. Some say that it is exclusive to Japan because it is so good that Fender USA didn't want them exporting. This one is no exception and plays brilliantly and sounds fantastic with the combination of P and J pickups giving it plenty of bottom end thump with added snap from the jazz pickup. It's in great condition and benefits from a full professional set up including fret level, crown and polish, fretboard treatment with lemon oil and relief, action and intonation set up plus new strings. It’s a 34” scale, has a jazz width neck of 1.5” at the nut and weighs a very lightweight 7.5 lbs. It has a few age related dings mainly on the bottom edge. Those have been filled with black paint so are not visible until close up. The bass comes with a decent Fender padded gig bag. I'm based in Chester so it can be tried, collected, I can meet up or deliver within reasonable distance and of course will post anywhere.

I’ve just checked again and found that the year is between 1997 and 2000. I was quoting it as a 93 bass but O serial numbers which are Made in Japan are 93 as opposed to Crafted in Japan which are made between 97 and 2000. Sorry for misinformation.......

I’ve just checked again and it’s a 93, not a 99 bass. My mistake deciphering the CIJ serial numbers.

Have a free bump from me for a great looking bass.

There’s a long story and a short version, the short being that sadly it has to go,

Thanks for the positive comments. When you get such positivity it makes you wonder whether to sell or not......

Having just checked again I now find out that this is an O series bass, Crafted in Japan so made between 1997 and 2000. I first thought it was a 1999, then revised the listing to say 93 and it looks like I was probably right in the first place. Sorry about that......... Up for sale is my Crafted in Japan Fender Precision PB62 reissue in naturally aged Olympic white (possibly cream now....) with red tortoiseshell pick guard, after market high mass bridge with rosewood finger board on similarly aged maple neck. It's just been fully set up with relief set, frets levelled, crowned and polished, fretboard treated with lemon oil, action set nice and low, intonation set and has new strings. Condition wise it's got a lot of surface lacquer cracks on the front and back, on the back has some wear through the finish next to the neck plate and the back of the neck has a couple of small dings which don't affect playability but it plays well and sounds huge. The neck is a very playable 1.65" / 42mm wide at the nut, depth of 21mm at the nut and the bass weighs in at around 9 lbs. It comes with a decent gig bag and I'll ship it pretty much anywhere double boxed. I'm in Chester but could deliver or meet up within 100 mile radius or so.
