I recently purchased this, but I won't use it, so I'm selling it on.
Squier 2021 Affinity P/J body, aftermarket bridge, standard Fender/Squier neck pocket, the P pickup on this is very hot for some reason. 2.6 kg or 5.7 lbs.
£70 delivered to your door.
Its also a very forgiving instrument. Even if you’re not entirely in tune, your band mates will forgive you as it looks so cool and you’ve made such a huge effort to get anywhere with it!
The jack socket on my Warwick broke in front of a packed Royal Albert Hall audience. Swapped to a Geddy Lee jazz in seconds and all was ok. Never played a Warwick (or the Albert hall!) ever again.

Try explaining this to some web designers is a nightmare. I’m having this exact issue when building a new e-commerce site…
The bass bros site is ok, and they’re banking on the audience being less concerned with instant fulfilment.
I sold one of these to Phil Oakey from the Human League. It was (and I think still is) used on their tours. I lost a fortune posting it as it was all flight cased.
I once did a gig with an Australian band and the bass player asked to borrow my Musicman Stingray. They were headlining and was told if I didn’t the gig wouldn’t go ahead.
After the gig my bass somehow ended up in his dressing room covered in coats. A heated discussion later and I extricated the bass!
I can understand not wanting to fly with the bass. If it were me, I’d order a HB 5 string from Thomson and have it delivered to the venue…
Ahh, so the bridge itself can sometimes lift a little bit away from the body over time. This happens on most, if not all, Rickenbackers. It’s nothing to worry about, but I wouldn’t feel right not mentioning it. The lift here is no greater than a sheet of two of paper.
