Beautiful! Is the bridge pickup on the music man sweet spot or slightly behind (like a double buck)? GLWTS

Sold!

Since I have decided to go back to drop tuned four string basses, I am putting up for sale a couple of my 5 stringers. First up is my Fame Baphomet 5 bought from another basschatter last year while on tour. Those are German handmade basses made by the same people that makes Mayones basses. The bass is very Warwick inspired in look and feel (MEC pickups, sculpted back, 2 band EQ, tight string spacing). The 2 band EQ makes it incredibly versatile and it can be played passive too (volume pot is a push pull pot). The finish is very striking and it's rough to the touch, I have tried my best to capture it in photo. It has a small dink above the fretboard and a small scratch on the neck but nothing that affects playability. It's been a great pairing to my Warwick Double Buck and I hope it goes to a good household where it gets played. Weight wise my scale says it's 3.8kg but it feels much lighter. Bass comes in a sturdy Fame case as well. Those basses are around £800 quid new so I think £450 is reasonable. No trades as I have just bought something else and I don't want to get shot by my girlfriend. I am based in St Albans, Hertfordshire so feel free to come around to try it. Happy to drive a reasonable distance to deliver/meet up for fuel money or to package it up and use a courier. Happy to use Paypal as long as you're happy to cover the Paypal fees.

Beautiful! Interested in any trades? 😊

Got a 5 string version of those and they are simply incredible. Every possible tone is there, from heavy rock to an old school thumping bass sound! Whoever is reading this you won't be disappointed!

What a stunner!! Is the bass in the UK?

What a beauty. Those Tokai basses have something special, by far my favourite jazz bass I've ever tried! Have a bump on me 😊

SOLD! Jesus that was quick! In a beautiful turn of events the bass has been randomly bought by the same guy that bought the body that belonged to the neck a long time a go. It was meant to be, clearly. Couldn't wish it to go to a better home! Thank you all for your messages guys Live music will be back soon and it'll be wonderful. Let's hang in there folks!

Hi guys, It's with an incredible heavy heart that I am having to sell my workhorse. Without any tours in the foreseeable future and shaky 0 hours contract in supermarkets, I am pushed to sell a bass I have taken years to put together with parts of basses I liked. The result is a unique bass for many reasons. So here it is: THE BODY The body is from an AVRI 58. It has yellowed slightly through the years (I've owned this for roughly 3 years). It was bought new from Guitar Guitar in Glasgow. It is finished in a very thin nitro that has worn in many places. It has many dings and scratches but it hasn't been mistreated. It's been my workhorse for the past 3 years and it shows. Some parts are getting darker due to friction (mostly where the arm rests). The paint has also cracked in the back and there is a bit of paint missing. There is also some less visible cracking that I haven't been able to show on camera. THE ELECTRONICS The middle pickup is an AVRI58 pickup with raised A pole pieces. The bridge pickup is a DiMarzio instead. The position of the bridge pup gives you a pj sound but a slightly fatter one plus it's great to use rest your thumb on it. Lifting the tone knob will result in a series/parallel switch, great if you need some extra meaty sound for pick playing or solos. THE HARDWARE The bridge is from the AVRI58 except for one screw that rusted and it had to be changed. The machine heads are original from the '78 neck. The 3 knobs are just aftermarket and the anodised guard is original from the AVRI58 as well. THE NECK Here's my favourite bit about this bass. It's an original neck from a '78 Fender pbass I used to own. I have owned this for about 10 years and I have played countless gigs on it! The neck is really worn in. The bit behind frets 3-8 has actually worn in slightly but it doesn't affect the feel. The neck also has the classic 70's cigarette burn. I added a tiny anchor in the back as a cute charm. The neck has also worn on the lower part and same for the top. I've had this refretted not too long a go and it has medium jumbo frets. I have also had the nut replaced and it's also now cut for bigger strings, perfect for BEAD tuning. The neck is chunky but not overly chunky and it's a kind of neck that I haven't seen before. It's between a jazz and a pbass but not as wide as a Nate Mendel feelwise. It measures between 40mm and 41mm, hard to give a precise measurement as I don't have a precise ruler. This feature alone makes me wish I could hang on to the bass. Here's a video of the bass in action playing a rather heavy cover of Come Together: Here's some pictures as well: ALL IN ALL I know this bass isn't for everyone but I can assure you this bass has been never mistreated and it has served me well for years in live settings and in studio settings, playing anything ranging from 50's blues to hard rock. If you're looking for something with a vintage vibe and worn in feeling you're going to love this. I am based in St Albans, Hertfordshire and I am happy for you to come and try the bass out. Any questions, just ask Thank you!

***SOLD***

TRADED

We sadly can't have them all 😢

Hi guys, A few weeks a go I bought this pbass from @Ghost Rider but despite being a great bass, I seem to always go back to my other 2 basses and since there's no gigs in sight I could do with the money. We all know how good these are. This is a 2018 model and it weights just under 9lbs. The bass has also had the fret edges rolled by Dave Wilson so it feels nice and smooth to play. The bass is light, resonant and thundering sounding with a comfy neck and an overall worn in feel. Bass comes in a Stagg hardcase. I am happy to courier at buyer's expenses or meet halfway for fuel money. I am based in St Albans, Hertfordshire and I am happy for you come and try the bass out. Selling for £825. Here's some pictures:

Hi GhostRider, Do you know the bass' weight? Thank you

Exactly my thoughts Marky! If I didn't need different gear for a certain band I work with, I would definitely keep this!

Thank you Lozz ☺️

NOW £499!!

Oh my, that's beautiful! If I shift my BB735a I'll be all over this! GLWTS
