If I had a need for a P I’d be all over this….!!

I normally do but just put it down to age 😂

Lush bass btw

I’m sure someone on FB bass forums was looking for one of these last week

Seymour Duncan Quarter Pounders. We’re in a Nate Mendel signature P bass originally. Sound great and pretty loud/hot!

Price includes U.K. postage.

Well, looks like this is mine again. 

Thanks again @Clarky

who did you sell that Surf green Lull too? have they seen this?  

@Clarky but things are stirring 😉

Oh my, I have one of these but it’s not green 😍

An absolute killer of a bass. The colour is sublime, the weight is just stupidly light and  it plays and sounds superb. If my Ripper sale goes through tonight 🤞I will 100% buy this back. 

Now up again

Fender Precision Bass 1963 Pre CBS

Refinished in Lake Placid Blue 30 plus years ago. Pots are dated '66 but the rest is original, wiring is now cloth and period correct. I have loads of pics so feel free to contact me and I can send you anything you like. This bass is an absolute monster, it plays so well and man it just sings! This is from my personal stash and if I was still playing in bands it would not be sold but I am not and won't be for the foreseeable.

This is the real deal.

Weight 3.55kg

Comes with a new ish Fender hard case and the original covers too, in fact it has spare ones!

Viewings and test drives are welcome up here in Northumberland. This will only be available in the UK and will be handed over personally anywhere in the UK.

You are the king of awesome basses Mr Walsh 😊

Ha ha thanks dude. Wait until I unleash the ‘63 P later on 😉

Fender Precision Bass 1970

Definitely not a case queen, in fact I don’t think it’s ever lived in a case! This has been used and abused like all good basses should be. The paint is cracked, split and crackled, it’s been a gigging machine.

Original apart from CTS pots, the originals have been replaced. The wiring is the original cloth wiring. 
 

Regarding the bridge, it is the original bridge with the correct slot headed adjustment screws added, as were the rusty bridge screws. 
 

So, to clarify, it’s 98% original for those that are super interested.

Pick ups stamped and dated correctly.

Truss rod moves both ways, it’s not maxed out but it’s not flush either however the action is low and amazing.

Back of the neck has a split in the laquer only, it’s not a split in the neck. You can’t feel it while playing and doesn’t impact at all.

Strung with La Bella LTF

Weight 3.55kg Yep you read that right.

Comes with a Fender tweed Case.

Previous owner loaned it to Ozzy Osbourne when gigging up in Scotland early 80's I believe. 

Price includes UK delivery and please look at pics carefully, its been used and abused but is absolutely genuine and sounds killer. Anyone is welcome to come and try at my home studio to make sure they are 100% happy. 

*** Heading from Northumberland to Lydney ( Gloucester ) Monday should anyone on that loop want it, I will pop it in the car ***

Probably the best P bass I’ve built. It really is amazing. Pick ups have been changed but it’s a real big hitting P. GLWTS, I’m half tempted to get it back 💙

Thanks @Reggaebass and I have send @dmccombe7 a message.

I’m sure it’s walshy in disguise  🥸 I’m sure the company is called Van Monkey! 

😂😂 now there’s an idea. I don’t mind bringing it down for you with that Ripper 😂

I believe @walshy knows a 'man with a van' that hand delivers.  It could be an option for delivery but not UPS/DHL etc.

I do indeed

Just now, Thunderpaws said:

I wonder if they’ll do these gigs with a replacement (maybe with someone they know like Rufus Taylor) and then call it quits. I can’t imagine the foos without him. 

I just can’t see it. I think Dave will be absolutely broken

Not a BCer.  FB time waster with a broken car, burnt out washing machine AND broken phone... how unlucky can you get?    

Crazy! Such a great bass. Now if you fancy a Ripper at all 😉

Both are HE cabs and made in USA. The  2x10 is a bit more battle scarred but both work as they should. 8 ohms.

I'm honestly not sure what I like most, that Lakland neck or the vintage body.
