Hi, I've just come across this thread. Is the bass still for sale? I'm UK based and not too far from you if it is.

Thanks for that. Yes, I've already visited the Ibanez site. I use D'Addario on all of my basses, but was keen to replicate the exact string. They don't feel like D'Addarios strings. Thanks for you input.

Hi, I have an Ibanez Talman short scale bass (originally bought for my young son). It plays really well and the strings in particular are very nice. I need to replace them and kind find any detail on them. Both Ibanez and the UK distributors have been unhelpful,

The strings have a chrome ball end and have black tapered full length windings, They are roundwound strings.

Can anyone point me in the right direction as to what they might be at all?

I've searched to high heaven, but can't find any reference at all to them.

Thanks in advance

Gallien Krueger MBE-III 150 bass combo.

Excellent condition with very little use. This amplifier has been used for a couple of rehearsals and aside from that has been used at home for practice purposes only.

I'm based in the North East.

Hi, yes the string spacing is 19mm.

The 35 inch scale isn't hugely different when you're used to it, but there is a little adjustment to be made. When you've played both for a little while, moving back and forth is very easy.

Bump!

Bump!

Hi, everything listed come with the instrument, but that doesn't include the original pickup and bridge.

Sorry, I'm not in the market for trades.

I'm parting company with my Nate Mendel P Bass. It's a fine instrument that sounds great, but I keep going back to my '62 P Bass, which is unbeatable, so it has to go.

It's had a couple of modifications as follows: It has a Bartolini 8CPB, which is a classic Bartolini P bass pickup and it sounds lovely. The new age high mass badass style bridge has been replaced by a standard Fender bridge. I've also added a tug bar, which i think adds to the aesthetic of a P Bass.

The sale includes the Fender gig bag and all the bits and pieces that come with the bass from new.

It's currently strung with D’Addario XL170 rounds (brand new), but has previously had a set of Thomastik Infeld Jazz strings on it, which were a little lighter in gauge and it played great with them on.

Sure 4.5kg / 9.9lbs

Hi, the bass is @ 4.8kg/10.5lbs.

Not the heaviest, but then again not the lightest.

Overwater Custom made 5-string Fretless Bass. 35" scale. With Hiscox moulded case.

The bass is loosely based on the Overwater Progress model, but the body is a little more sculpted.

The neck is of 3-piece maple and sycamore construction with an Ebony fingerboard (no markings) and and runs through the body, which is is faced in Ash with a Walnut rear. As you might expect from the wood combinations, the sound is very natural - warm and punchy, but has very great definition. It sings just like a fretless should!

The front of the headstock is faced in Ebony to match the fingerboard. It's a very handsome instrument, which is further enhanced by the beautiful flame of the Ash body face wood.

The bottom B string has a very strong sound, helped by the 35" scale

The tuners are black to compliment the Ebony headstock, as is the bridge.

The bass features a very simple preamp that offers +/- 15db bass and treble. The controls are volume, pan, bass, treble.

It’s in pristine condition and has never left my home/studio.

Priced to sell at £1,200 plus shipping. No trades please.

I'm selling a matching fretted 5-string too if anyone is interested in grabbing a matching pair.

Although the bass hasn't left my home/studio and hasn't been played for some time, it has previously been gigged regularly and whilst it's in very good condition, has a couple of minor cosmetic marks mainly on the upper edge of the body and a couple of nail marks on the body front just under the top string. Outside of that it's in perfect condition.

Everything is in perfect working order and the bass has had a recent service/set up in the Overwater factory.

Roscoe Beck 5-string bass, in Candy Apple Red and comes with a Fender gig bag.

The bass is in very nice condition and whilst gigged, it hasn't been out of the home/studio for a long time.

Everything is in good working order.

If you are interested in specs, here they are:

2 Texas-size, dual-coil humbucking pickups (single, series, or parallel). They sound very natural and regardless of what setting you dial up, always retain an authentic Jazz bass sound.

The body is a two piece alder body and is fairly light.

The custom Gotoh bridge can be strung traditionally, or through the body.

The tuners are Hipshot Ultralite tuners.

The one-piece flatsawn maple neck is reinforced with two graphite bars and is topped with a Pau Ferro fingerboard. This wood combination yields a god combination of definition (hardness) and warmth.

The B strings sound nice and round.
