  1. And sold, I'll close the ad definitely when the buyer has received his item, as usual.
  2. Since when a butterfly is a counterfeit, except in some counterfeiters mind?
  3. Because you are not alone on this planet, just in case you didn't notice it! 🤦🏻‍♂️
  4. Here are the photos taken by Alain AGOSTINI, the first owner of two of my Leduc's, whom I spoke to on the phone this afternoon.
  5. Do you also sell the DeLorean DMC-12?
  6. After 7 years, the 2 sisters are reunited.
  7. €1750 EUR: Fender Marcus Miller Signature, Made in Japan, September 2002 (B009414), lightweight and in excellent condition! This bass is in excellent condition for its age, is really lightweight at only 3.910 kilos as photographed, has been fully shielded and is now dead quiet as the preamp has also been perfectly rewired (a common known issue on these models). The tuners are the super light Gotoh Res-O-Lite GBR640 reverse wind (like the original ones). Look at this amazing looking flamed maple neck and the superb 2 pieces ash body! NO TRADES! NON NEGOTIABLE PRICE ! Asking price including shipping fully insured with tracking number to your place in these European countries (ask for other countries) : Austria, Belgium, Bulgaria, Croatia, Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France (excluding French overseas departments and territories), Germany, Hungary, Ireland, Italy, Latvia, Lithuania, Luxemburg, Monaco, Netherlands, Poland, Portugal, Romania, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain and Sweden : €1750 Euros (£1550 GBP is an approximation and I will only accept payment in Euros)!!! Shipping to United Kingdom is, of course, possible, but with an extra customs fee (VAT + other taxes + courier fee), because U.K. is now outside EEC. In perfect working condition and, except some (very) light scratches and the usual light dings at the headstock, in excellent condition. Here are the specifications : Body: 2 pieces ash Neck: flamed maple with skunk stripe, micro tilt adjustment system and 3 mounting screws Fingerboard: white bound flamed maple with white pearloid block inlays Positions: 20 (frets have been levelled professionally) Headstock: 4 in line Tuners: Gotoh Res-O-Lite GBR640 reverse wind (like the original machine heads) Pickups: original Fender USA Vintage Jazz Bass with the original Fender neck pickup cover Controls: volume, volume, bass, treble, active/passive switch Preamp: original 2 bands boost only Fender Marcus Miller signature Japan Bridge: original BadAss II Strings spacing at bridge: 20 mm Nut: Corian (38mm width) Strings spacing at nut: 9 mm Knobs: original 2 chrome Fender dome metal + 2 black Fender Bakelite Scale: 34 inches Hardware colour: chrome Truss rod: one, single action, 100% functional Finish: original natural nitro cellulosic Country of origin: Japan Serial number: B009414 Year: 2002 (first generation) Weight: 3.910 kilos Action : from 1.5 mm under the G string to 2 mm under the E string at 12th position (can even go lower, but was perfect for me) Will be delivered in a Ritter gigbag. Non-smoking environment as usual. The bass has been fully set up professionally, including a frets dressing, crowning and polishing. It has received a new battery (Duracell Procell) and is now fitted with a brand new set of Dunlop Marcus Miller Signature Super Bright (DBMMS45105) stainless steel strings (45 - 65 - 85 - 105), which really serve this bass and will also come with 2 Schaller Security Lock pins and the Allen key for the Gotoh Res-O-Lite tuners. What you see is what you get ! Look carefully at the photos taken from different angles and lights to see the real condition, which is excellent with some (very) light scratches. Here is the link to the 30 photos in high resolution: https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1otGlZBlemQzVaXp-0o1q8OPJNJdkvylS?usp=drive_link Due to severe back problems (67% officially disabled because of it) plus right shoulder injury (non-operable capsulitis from which, after more than 4 years, I will never fully recover), I'm selling all my basses over 4 kilos and also the ones I'm not really using like this one as well as some stuff I don't use. I've also considerably lowered the price for a quick sale. Don't hesitate to ask for more.
  8. Superb looking bass in both configurations! 😍 What about the weight? Any neck diving with the Warmoth ... neck?
  9. Which was already in my ad, thanks. See the fifth paragraph.
  10. €2500 EUR: Leduc U-Basse 4 Fretless (UMM4 SF), "semi-acoustic" bass with a Brazilian rosewood (cut in 1895!) fingerboard, the patented free floating top and asymmetrical patented bridge (same patent for the both of them as they are intricated) and upgraded with a Fishman PowerChip! This very ergonomic headless bass is built like an acoustic instrument in mind, the free floating top allowing for huge dynamic range like an acoustic instrument and thanks to the Leduc-Benedetti single coil magnetic pickup and the Fishman BP-100 twin piezo pickup coupled to the Fishman PowerChip impedance matching preamp you can get typical fretless sounds when you use the magnetic pickup or close to a double bass with the twin piezo pickup when EQ'ed the right way AND you can even split the two signals with a stereo to two mono output jacks lead allowing you to dial very different tones for each pickup! Christophe LEDUC is now retired and the last retail price for a similar model (with a set neck and without the mother of pearl U.Bass logo) was ... €6100 Euros! Link to the U-basse page: http://leduc.fr/index.php/basses/u-basses-a-table-flottante Link to the patent: https://worldwide.espacenet.com/publicationDetails/biblio?KC=A&date=19940823&NR=5339718A&DB=EPODOC&locale=fr_EP&CC=US&FT=D NO TRADES!

Shipping to United Kingdom is, of course, possible, but with an extra customs fee (VAT + other taxes + courier fee), because U.K. is now outside EEC.

Positions: 24 with front and side white dots at the correct position (fretless) and mother of pearl U.Bass logo to the high register extension Headstock: none as it's headless Pickups: Leduc-Benedetti Samarium-Cobalt single coil magnetic pickup with Brazilian rosewood cover + Fishman BP-100 twin piezo pickup Controls: volume, volume (both located between the top and sides of the body) Preamp: Fishman PowerChip allowing signal splitting and impedance matching (the hole at the back is to access the piezo gain control with a small flat screwdriver) Tuning tailpiece: Leduc aluminium Bridge: asymmetrical patented Para rosewood Strings spacing at bridge: 19 mm Nut: ebony(38mm width) Strings spacing at nut: 10 mm Knobs: Leduc aluminium Scale: 34 inches Hardware colour: black Truss rod: one, single action, 100% functional Finish: natural wax Country of origin: France Serial number: 7521-P Year: 1994 (first generation) Weight: 2.680 kg ! Yes 2.680 kilos ! Action : from 1.75 mm under the G string to 2.25 mm under the E string at 12th position (can even go lower, but was perfect for me as it's designed like an acoustic instrument, so higher is even better) Will be delivered in the used original Leduc gigbag. Non-smoking environment as usual. The bass has been fully set up professionally by Christophe LEDUC himself. It is now fitted with a brand new set of Elixir 14077 Nanoweb nickel plated strings (45 - 65 - 85 - 105), which really serve this bass and will also come with the set of Thomastik JF344 (043 - 056 - 070 - 100) that you see on the pictures for a different tone and feel. What you see is what you get ! Look carefully at the photos taken from different angles and lights to see the real condition, which is very good with some marks, a few light dings and scratches.

I've also considerably lowered the price for a quick sale. Don't hesitate to ask for more.

    Maybe it's about time to start to learn to read! Moderator or not, I'm more than fed up by this total inability to understand what is really written and the way you like to patronise others! And you are not alone on this parish: It looks to be quite standard!

    Yep, and I confirm that these mass produced instruments are total crap, just as the fact that the OP will never come back for thanking anyone. That said the OP is so clear that we don't even know if it's an Ibanez bass or an Iron...

    I'm so tired to have to justify myself for everything when it's so obvious...

    Looks like the term statistics was misunderstood : I'm talking about the science, not the results of it. In other words, mass produced instruments are not good instruments by definition as they are merely assembled without any special care, but from time to time, after a lot of assemblies, the right combination appears and, bingo, you have an extraordinary instrument that will be repeated again after a very high number of other assemblies, so statistics at work, just as simple as that.
