Band names that are a tad misleading

Motorhead Not a Mk1 Ford Granada in sight....or a head if I`m honest. -
I don`t use my pinky either or my 3rd finger much to be honest as I had a compound fracture of the pinky finger in 1999 and it`s virtually useless. It has effected the "power side" of my left hand so I have little strength in my hand. Don`t worry about it, just adapt the way you play.

G & L - CLF - L2000. £1200 posted in the UK. NOW SOLD
jezzaboy replied to jezzaboy's topic in Basses For Sale
Trade option added. US P bass plus cash my way Stingray or MM Sterling. UK and four string only I have checked the bass over and can`t see any dings or marks on it. I hate to describe something as mint especially a black bass but it`s near as. The case is in exc condition also. The weight of the bass is bang on 4.2 kg or 9.25 lb`s. The website says that the black basses have a basswood body but the build sheet says it`s alder. All the info for the bass is on the sheet. -

The Player Mustangs are very good. I have had a couple and while the P pickup was good, if you put in a nice set of P/J `s it would be a great little bass. Or why not get the M2000 converted to passive if you really like the bass?

I have bought a P bass body from Northwest guitars. It`s got a natural finish and looks nice (in the pictures anyway) and has been routed but I need to drill and fit the bridge, there is a hole for the earth wire but thats it. It`s going to have a standard Fender neck on it and a nice Gotoh BBOT 5 screw hole bridge but whats the best way to make sure the bridge is in the right place? Ta!

Squier Bronco bass modified £110 collected*SOLD*

The last of my "short scale folly" as my wife calls it Picked this up last year locally in a bit of a state. The youngster who bought it and lost interest in it, had covered it in stickers that were a right pain to get off. The resulting residue was unsightly and I attacked it with a green pad. It removed all the gloss and left it the way it is now. I did intend to paint it but I never got round to it. ****Please note: if you are looking for a pristine example of a Bronco, buy one from a shop**** I have replaced the tuners with Japanese Gotoh`s, stuck in an Artec humbucker attached to one of Kiogon`s wiring looms, put on a home made thumb rest, painted the scratch plate black and fitted a BBOT bridge which works out ok re string spacing. Due to the pickup and K`s wiring loom, it`s sounds really decent. It`s as light as a feather and is an ideal mod platform for someone with the time and skill. I put about £80 worth of parts plus the price of the bass into this so I reckon the price is fair. £110 collected from Paisley observing the usual or £125 posted to the UK mainland. I might have the original bridge and pickup somewhere so if I can find them, you can have them. Actual weight is 3.2 kg or just over 7 lb`s. Just played it again to check it over. Just to say that the pickup is a guitar humbucker (the original is a guitar single coil version) and the tone control doesn`t really do much. This was through headphones, there may be more of a noticeable difference through an amp.

I have used APC via Overland express after someone on here recommended them. They have done around 10 or so deliveries for me over the last year and apart form a 2 delay recently - 1 day due to weather and the driver ran out of time the second day - they have been good. And give them their due, they made sure the delayed delivery was done am on the second day. Its around the £30 mark for insured delivery in the UK. How comprehensive the insurance is I don`t know as I have never had to claim but have a look and see if it suits you.

Sold my Sandberg shortie to Mike. He was a total dude even when the delivery was delayed for 2 days when the courier let me down. So deal in confidence with the man, just don`t mention a certain bass shop and you will get along fine

Have these Lockdowns improved your bass playing?

Good man! Starting a Madness tribute by any chance? -

To be honest, if I had spent as much time actually practicing the bass as I have buying, selling and being on here, I would be almost as good as Pino! That`s Pino Jaconelli the local ice cream man. -
NOW SOLD Squier Paranormal Jazz Bass for sale only, no trades thanks. This is a bit of a Marmite bass, you either love the look or don`t. It is in exc condition and is totally standard. Usually when I buy a Squier, I end up changing something but this is a great bass as it is. It`s a popular body with an ash veneer, you can see the grain of the ash through the paint. The neck is a lovely gloss finish, not sticky like some but nice and smooth. This is made in China unlike the CV`s which are made in Indonesia and is very well constructed and finished. Check out Lobsters video below. It weighs 4.3 kg or just under 9.5 lb`s. Collected price is £250 and I will post to UK mainland only for £265. I have taken a few photos without the pickgaurd just to show you what it looks like "naked!" Bear in mind that there are a couple of paint chips around the screw holes if you decide to leave the pickgaurd off.
