  1. A used but very good condition WMS 40 Pro - a great introduction to wireless. I've used this for rehearsals and gigs and it's worked very well. Everything is in the box just as it arrived. There may be a minor mark here or there (I can't see anything other than a very small scuff on the back of the receiver unit - it's tiny) but the unit as a whole is very clean. I'd continue to use it but have just received a Smoothhound as a gift. The cheapest I can see these is £80+ at Gear for Music so I hope this is a bargain. I can ship in the UK for £5
  2. Lovely pre - had one in a Sadowsky NY bass (pj) - to be honest, the pre and the weight were the only things I liked about the bass, but the pre is excellent! Subtle but present and very musical. If I had a passive J, I’d buy this
  3. I'm not sure, and others will know better, but that looks like it could be Morroco red from the International colours series. The date could be about right for the series too. Great price IMO (and I'm a big fan of PJs)
  4. Wow, absolutely lovely with some very high-end appointments... miles away from Walthamstow and a bit heavy for me, otherwise...
  5. Oh no. I have an addiction to the world’s finest non-valve pres. And this is certainly one of the world’s finest. Infinite tweaking capability. I could waste hours with this.
  6. Brilliant cabs - sort of wish I still had mine
  7. I’m a big fan of the EB aesthetic, and in some circumstances, the tone. Most of the shortcomings have been rehearsed above (and elsewhere), though a way around these - balance apart and if you’re willing to splash out - is Alembic’s Brown Bass and its various cousins. Thud plus anything else, a stable, easily adjustable bridge, and a beautifully contoured body (and stereo!)
  8. That appears to be very beautifully made!
  9. Just received a cab from Stevie - extremely well-packed, rapid delivery and the item was in much better condition than I'd thought. Great communications and a massively impressive cab at a great price - Stevie is very highly recommended - deal in confidence
  10. I’ve only ever seen TI flats with red silks and bronze/gold ball ends. I use TI rounds and they too have bronze/gold ball ends but with green silks. As Chiliwailer suggests, Barnes and Mullins may be able to help. My efforts to contact TI directly have met with silence - not great for a (seriously) premium and expensive brand
  11. Hmm... best big touring bass head ever built? Actually prefer these to the 751. Thunderous but incredibly responsive to player dynamics. Stunningly well built
  12. Wow! I've had the very significant pleasure of having both played this bass and heard it being used live on a number of occasions. It's a very light, resonant and well-balanced instrument. The neck is a particularly fine example - slender and fast - with lovely quarter-sawn figuring (this is evident in the images). When I played it, the action too was lovely - low but with enough room to dig-in without clanging all over the place. Live, the bass sounds superb - fantastic ability to cut-through (obviously dependent of FoH staff) but sits very neatly in the mix. As above, pretty much anything from nasal Jaco to dub tones. An extremely handsome bass and one that I'd love to call my own... I just really struggle a bit with the Jazz body shape. GLWTS - I'd doubt that this will hang around

    Damaged Head

    If you look at the link below (to the Repairs section on Basschat), you should be able to find a recommended luthier that is fairly close to you. Most decent luthiers would be able to sort out a break of the nature that you've experienced fairly quickly and easily (and without ridiculous expense).
  14. very lovely indeed - studio standard and found in some really high-end live rigs. These are very expensive now, especially with the ears - looks like a bargain to me!
  15. Born on Monday. Isn’t she lovely, just a few days old etc. Absolutely stunning, brand new bass from a first class seller at an amazing discount. As an Overwater player, I can recommend most highly, and this is a fantastic spec!

    Relisted

    What a really lovely looking thing and I like the added pickup - very cool bass indeed
  17. Definitely one of the nicest and most realistically-priced CS Js I've seen - a very lovely bargain. I've had a few CS/Masterbuilt Js and all were impressive instruments - each played very well indeed
  18. Flatwound strings, light use - nice and clean! I think these are Fender (from the ball ends) and feel like medium gauge - cut for a Fender P or J. Silks in decent condition. £7 includes shipping to UK
  19. Bridge and pickup covers for a Precision bass - nicely aged but not battered. Includes aged screws. £20 includes shipping in the UK
  20. 3 aged Precision scratchplates, all in excellent (aged) condition. All 13 hole pattern. One Limelight 4ply tort, one 3 ply mint green, and one anodised aluminium. Sold as a job lot only I’m afraid. £40 includes UK shipping
  21. Lovely sort of Alembic/CT hybrid - fantastic price for a hand-built neck through imo
  22. Stupendously lovely bass, stupendously lovely seller. I’d never heard of MPU and now I need one. Looks to be a fab price for such hand-built quality (and a filter circuit)
  23. Absolutely gorgeous - I love these. I saw one in a shop in Paris around 1980. I already owned a fretted, maple Ripper but was rather taken by the two-tone sunburst on the fretless and hadn't been previously aware that they were available. There aren't too many of these basses around ('wonder if it's the same one and it made its way to Ireland?) I didn't have the cash at the time and many years on I realise that my fretless playing is inadequate to justify an emotional purchase. Weird though, I remember vividly my first sighting of such a lovely bass. It made such an impression that I had my Ripper re-finished but in 3TS within the year. GLWTS, a lovely instrument with a distinctive character and tone (and a pic of mine!) - and a Bump for a fabulous bass, of course
