This any good ?

 

https://guitarsandwoods.com/Tool/Type-of-Tools/Truss-Rod-Tools/spoke-wheel-for-truss-rod-1940991554.html

That's exactly the sort of thing I meant!  Thanks

I'm very particular about my neck relief and as such I am a big fan of the music man style wheel at the heel of the bass for adjusting the truss rod. 

Can you buy adaptors that will plug into a hex key? I've ordered a Sire Z7 and noticed that it doesn't have a wheel but there's room for one at the heel I think. 

Cheers

Dare I ask how much this weighs?

I'll try and find my luggage scales.....

It's not light - probably around 4.5kg-5kg I guess. 

Classic bass, no major dings. Wish I could keep it but smaller house forces sale. 
 

The pickup selector needs a wiggle sometimes, could probably do with being cleaned/re-soldered 

can deliver 

Moving house to a smaller place so need to whittle my collection down.

Pretty rare. Built like a tank. USA made. 2 band sweet sounding EQ. Pickups are meaty!

fantastic condition. Plays and sounds great. Is a heavy instrument though.

Downsizing and moving house so the collection has to be whittled down.

Built like a tank, plays great, has original preamp.

I think thus might have been fretless originally but has been converted professionally and well.

Which preamp you have? If your blend is just a pot, you could consider Noll Mixpot instead.

It's the sadowsky VTC. Never heard of that Noll Mixpot, will look into it

I've been using a custom Maruszczyk for my wedding band gig for a few years - 5 string, P/MM config with ability to turn the MM into single coil/series/parallel. 

I've never been happy with the P sound - it's a Delano MVC5 AL. Doesn't sound like a P to me. So i've been trying out various basses./ 

Recently got a Sadowsky metro express which had been upgraded with the VTC and noiseless pickups. THe P pickup sounds great, PJ is fantastic for slap but I cant get a decent bridge pickup sound for the songs that need more of a stringray vibe. I've tried various degrees of blend and solod and boosting the gain but just doesnt do it for me. I really notice it on  "Dont stop believing" where I'd normally have my MM in series and solo'd with a bit of a mid poke.

So...are there any high output 5 string jazz pickups I could drop in to the bridge position?

Any idea of the weight of this?

25.4kg

I'm fed up of the acrylic ones eventually cracking. Seems to be hard to find someone making metal ones.

Is that "no box" or "I might be able to find the box"? 😁

Box found!

Amazingly well built bass with 18v EMG circuit. Plays fantastically.

G string machine head has been repaired - sheared off but has been secured with epoxy and is fully functional. 
 

Outstanding bass, great condition. Sounds the same as my 2025x 

Comes with the Yamaha gig bag. 
 

Rackmount autotune. Barely used. Price includes uk delivery. 
 

I’m not sure where I’ve put the box 

Not getting used so needs to go. No issues. Price includes uk postage 

Bullet proof classic preamp. No issues. Have the original box. Price includes uk postage 

Gathering dust so needs to go. Works perfectly. Found the box and manual. Box is a bit damaged on one edge.
 

price includes postage 

bump

Bought this new but prefer my Steve Harris pedal. 
 

don’t have the box and not sure where I put instructions. Comes with power suppply 
 

price includes delivery. Would

trade for a SH1 

Needing to be ruthless with my collection.

I bought this already modded with and 18v EMG circuit. It plays and sounds great.

only issue is music stand fell into it and scarred it. There’s a 1 inch scratch that goes through the paint on the front of the body lower edge.

Price includes uk delivery in hard case.

Happy to deliver most of Scotland. 
 

I would trade for stringray 4

Sorry all, sold it.
