Jim bought a MXR Mini Carbon Copy from me last week. Good comms and a fast payer....... recommended.

Alan bought a Laney Bass Comp off me this morning. The whole thing was painless, great comms and a pleasure to deal with...... not to mention he lived local so picked it up, which made it even better 🙂

MXR M299 Carbon Copy Mini Analog Delay in good condition. No original box, but it does have a box from another pedal. Usefully it has a bright switch on the side which allows switching between the original darker analog delay and the brighter analog delay pedal that was released. Also has a modulation button that adds a nice bit of chorus. No power adapter as it didn't come with one and it used to live on my pedalboard. Price includes postage.

Laney Black Country Customs 'The 85' Bass Interval Octaver with control for the -1 octave, plus an interval switch for (-2, +1, +5th). It also has an Expression Pedal input. About £150-ish new I think. In excellent condition complete with original tin box and paperwork and only moving on as I've started using a Plethora X3 purely for convenience. No power adapter as it didn't come with one. Price includes postage.

Laney Black Country Customs 'The Custard Factory' Bass Compressor in excellent condition complete with original tin box and paperwork (slight dent on the box lid edge). A nice easy compressor to use compared to some of the ones out there these days. Moving on as I've started using a Plethora X3 purely for convenience. No power adapter as it didn't come with one. They're about £125 new. Price includes postage.

Keir bought a BG250 combo from me. Excellent comms and even drove over to collect it. A smooth transaction all round and highly recommended.

TC Electronic BG250-115 Combo which I think may be the Mk1 as newer ones have 2 x TonePrint controls and no Tube Drive. The Tone Print doesn't seem to want to save the effects/sounds from the TonePrint app..... They can be heard downloading into the pickups but don't seem to save in the amp. I've been told this is a firmware update issue since they have a Mk2 version of this out these days, but as I don't use it I can't be arsed to sort it out. Other than that, it works fine and packs a punch as expected, especially with the built-in switchable 'Tube Drive'. It's very loud too and the built-in Tuner works as it should. As expected from TC, the weight is very manageable too.

1983 Squier JV PB-57 Precision - *SOLD*

1983 Squier JV PB-57 Precision (apparently). Time to thin the herd a bit and seeing as I have a 79 Precision that is identical in looks and sound...... there can be only one. Plus, I'm not sure if the weight enthusiasts would be keen on the 79 Precision 🙂 This one weighs in at 4.2kg (9.3lb). I've taken a best guess on a price from looking at others on here that have sold, both ones still as original and ones that have been tinkered with, so forgive me if I'm off the mark. I'm open to sensible offers though. Plays a treat and I can't tell any difference to the 79 Precision other than it's much lighter. As far as I know it's all original, except for possibly the scratchplate..... no additional pickups, patina (rust, peeled off, faded etc) on the chrome, original pickup with the raised poles on A, original wiring etc..... see pics. If I did ever replace the scratchplate I'll have a root about for what was on it. Obviously for an almost 40 year old bass it has a few marks but all are light. Can't really highlight any as they're all very minor and in the lacquer except for a mark near the bridge and one on the belly contour. The neck has no dints on the back either. In great condition for a 39 year old bass, frets are excellent, truss rod works, no crackles on the electrics, bridge grub screws are free etc. Pots are stiffer to turn than my 79 but no crackling and still smooth operation. Can be supplied with either a Fender gig-bag or a non-branded hardcase. Would rather any collection, but happy to drop off if local-ish or halfway meet if not too far...... but also happy to post. I'm bound to have forgotten something, so just ask.

Passive OLP MM3 5 String. I've finally decided that my foray into 5-stings is doomed to fail so ideal for anyone looking to move into 5-string from four or just starting from scratch on bass and wanting five. The finish is a little 'matt' now as it has seen better days and it originally came to me with a basic after-market preamp (Artec I think). I decided I could make better use of the pickup so a chap I know who makes quality looms made me a Parallel-Series-Single loom which is operated from the mini toggle switch. It was also put back as original passive with complete new decent quality solderless pots, jack and wiring. The cover on the back was made my Tim at Gig.Ink and covers the cavity that was drilled out earlier in its life to fit the preamp battery compartment (Has bevelled edges so doesn't catch). Setup and fitted with what I think were Rotosound rounds. Weighs in at 4.5kg (9.9lb) for those that like all that. Would prefer collection, reasonable distance meet for petrol money or can drop off if close. Can also look at postage.

Sire P5-4 in their tobacco sunburst. Has a buckle rash mark on the back in the lacquer about the size of a 10p piece which can be seen in the pics. If you have the time, patience and inclination you could probably paper and polish it out. I popped a thumb-rest on it for the sole reason I just like them aesthetically. Collection or reasonable meet up for petrol preferred and can even drop off if nearby-ish, but can look at posting. For the weight watchers..... 3.9kg (8.6lb)
