  1. This is known in my circles as the  “The JJ Burnel sounding one” its a self-build that started as a cheapie throwabout and took on a life (and a budget!) of its own.

    All the parts are quality parts and listed as below. The neck is bolted using stainless steel inserts as per all my builds.

    • Northwest Guitars P Bass Body - £129 (paid £15 extra to have a J pup rout)
    • Northwest Guitars Replacement Precision Bass Maple Neck - Vintage Gloss - £139.09 -  42 mm
    • EMG PJ Set Active Solderless - £159 (extra unused parts for different configs inc)
    • Schaller Tuners - Original F-Series BMF - £80
    • Hipshot KickAss 4 String Bass Bridge - £65
    • Black Scratchplate - Mex PJ fit -£11.99
    • Various hardware: Strap Hooks, Knobs, string retainer, neck bolt inserts,
    • Fender neck plate - £20
    • Fresh unopened set of Rotosound Roundwounds Included

    Weight is 4.39kg 9lb/11oz

    Cost to build this would be £639.08 -- give or take

    I'm asking £399 OBO. Might trade for some PJB amps or cabs + difference (depending on amp) but not looking for basses. I am downsizing even the good stuff now because of an (ahem, rather big impending purchase)

    The skunk neck is lovely, the Northwest Guitar necks are really good first places to start as they don't need much fret dressing, they arrive straight and true and need little truss rod alterations, the body was just a standard P Bass but I had J routs cut. Everything else is a straight ahead Jean Jaques Burnel black bass with the addition of the Hipshot 4 Bridge.

    Superb low action and is a really really fast player, really quick travel up and down the fretboard. You can hear it as bass & guitar as well (its set up to do both) on all my records from Nazi Furs F*** Off through to (I don't want your) Germs where it really came into its own via a Darkglass Alpha/Omega and my Trace Elliot Stack (now moved on).

    1. This body has a couple of dings. One on the horns and a dent in the finish  on the back. I have no idea how as I never gigged with this. I only made it last year!
       
    2. Truss rod set is at the base of the neck. Its a stable neck so i dont need to adjust it but I have not notched out access in the scratchplate where the set screw is, I like a tidy looking minimal neck-to-scratchplate look.

    Yes I do ship. UK shipping would be in the region of £18 and I crate these days.

  2. Brand New in Box. Unused. Bought for a planned LP recording session that was to involve recording Drum Kit multitrack and live ensemble but Covid put pay to that. I use a simple 2 input version of this at home and this is unneeded.

    Unused complete with cable, Power Supply, Rack ears and US16x08

    16 simultaneous Inputs, 8 outputs. Preamps on every channel. Its a heck of a beast. Latency is down to the 3ms on Windows/ASIO Details are here the great thing about this unit is with Windows you have extremely low latency - 4 samples which is indistinguishable from live.

    https://www.tascam.eu/en/us-16x08.html#specs

    Price includes UK shipping. International is £8.99 for EU zone - £27 fro Australia. Ask for price.

    Package is 5Kg 55 x 29 x 13cm

  3. I have a really nice example of a USA original Peavey Cirrus V bass. I bought it whilst living in the USA. Unusual and new, it has a delightful rich tone. It’s just I’m trying to clear wall space down to say two basses its a bit posh for me, I never use a lot of my basses and hoarding is a waste.

    Description
     

    Spec
    The body is of Red Oak and Alder composite. The fingerboard is in Rosewood at 24 Frets. It’s a long neck. A 35' single wood through body bass. Tuners are Gotoh 720’s I think. Original anyway. The Bridge is an original milled brass bridge, and all parts are in gold colour. No pitting or deformities.


    The Control section is comprised of Volume, Pickup blend, EQ: Bass, mid & treble controls with a 10dB boost/cut a huge range of tonal controls.

    Comes supplied with the original Peavey Hard Case. I’m not looking for trades to be honest, (although I have seen a few ACGs that get me damn near close, she says not looking for any more “posh” basses).

    Hit me up with a PM if you are interested.

  4. I assembled a bass from some nice parts. I’d really like to get down to two basses soon.

    I have a fretless Precision Jazz with Seymour Duncan Quarter pounder pups, Fender tuners, a hipshot badass 4 heavy bridge, brass nut and a lovely flamed maple neck. Fender neck plate. Rosewood marker-less fingerboard (be warned the side dots are not for fretless, I know I know, it’s what I had to hand)

    Current strings are LaBella Heavy flatwounds.

    It’s not a proper Fender PJ (the decal *definitely* wasn’t my idea, but i kinda fell in love with the Flamed maple and the skunk stripe was just [chef’s kiss]) parts were all new and unused and sourced here and there: ebay for the body, basschat, talkbass — but it’s a lovely ash body bass and in beautiful condition. weight is 5.4kg. 11lbs yeah.  It’s not light wood but heavy lumber and a real woody so it rarely gets used in my Punk Rock Project. The profile of the neck is very comfy and it has a great tone. Just clearing wall space.

    The neck is bolted using stainless steel bolt inserts (this is standard in all my builds) and this is good for sustain and tone and general sturdiness. It’s also a good low action and the bass has a really satisfying growl.

    Looking for £399 plus shipping (which is less than the cost of the parts). Also comes in a tatty but safe for shipping gator case.

  5. Selling my Tascam Model 24 which I had planned on recording my second EP live on but this had to be cancelled and I am going for a more “in the box solution”. Bought from Thomann, https://www.thomann.de/gb/tascam_model_24.htm

    I’ll include the sales receipt.

     

     

     

     

    With this little beauty you can record live gigs straight into this with access to 22 channels (23-24 is always a mix-to-stereo channel) so you can record band practices, gigs, proper rehearsal sessions, use it as a live desk, record live gigs and generally use it for everything you would probably want a recording studio for. 

     

    The Preamps Are FANTASTIC. Really clean and warm. It’s got a very undigital sound to it. works with USB as a 24 channel sound card and takes the DAW out of the equation for most of the time. I recorded my first eps on this with just a Bass Guitar, some pedals for Guitar sounds, a drum kit and some vocal mics. New is £850
