Exactly, just to show the scale. It was a tight fit, but a good fit.....as they say....

Excellent. Then you know you can adjust string spacing to your desired width...... You see even spacing and Guy doesn't (he's mentioned it before).....you like rosewood and not maple..... Now that we're done with all the tutorials (thanks very much!) back to the sale of the lovely bass. I never knew not having exact string spacing would cause so much discussion. -

Purchased this new 2 weeks ago (but it's a 2018). I loved it so much I tried the rosewood model and decided the rosewood was more up my alley since it's a bit more traditional and I play in a 60's cover band. I'm super impressed with these American Performer models. You get graphite support rods and a fantastic playing neck. I've set this bass up as per Fender specs. Includes truss rod tool, allen keys etc. 4.2kg according to the old bathroom scale. £875 shipped....or £850 local sale, bank transfer or PayPal fine.

I'll also ad, worrying about my gear is also a reason why I don't have really high end equipment. I've sold my Markbass amp set up since we're now using IEM's. I just have a Fender Rumble 40 for any small gigs where I might not use IEM's (and DI that into the PA). I just don't want to worry about my equipment when at a gig, or left in my shed. If someone nics my American Performer Jazz bass it would suck, but it wouldn't be the end of the world to replace it....and I always have my modded Bronco bass as a back up.

I use an uninsulated out building to keep my gear....and futon for naps, desk etc. In the summer it gets blazing hot and winter pretty darn cold. I do have 2 garden/greenhouse low energy heaters to pull some moisture out in the winter. But, I must say, my bass collection hasn't suffered. Although, I do wish it was insulated. We're in the process of moving, so I can show a picture. The positive to our garden is it's surrounded by high walls, and no access to streets or alleyways, so I feel pretty confident it's secure. I also have a camera installed.

Oh, I love this bass. It feels like home, but my band is moving into the mod circuit (when things open up!) and I've had the good fortune to acquire a stonkin' Ric so sadly, Betsy and I must part ways. It was my gigging bass until lock down, so it shows some wear and tear (see photos) but not too bad. It comes strung with Fender flats. Also includes the fantastic bass centre gig bag, which is one of the best standard gig bags I've used. Tools and hang tags too. Also included is a signed copy of Guy Pratt's book as well! http://www.basscentre.com/british-bass-masters/bbm-betsy.html £450 shipped mainland UK

I purchased this lovely P bass in the good ol' USA before the COVID hit. Was planning on using it for some gigs over the Pond, which didn't happen. So here she is back in the UK and needs a good home. I'm pretty happy with my Ric, so off this beauty goes. The shape of the neck on the Am. Pro's is really comfy. They certainly nailed it with this shape and feel. I really like the taller frets too. I didn't totally dig the pick ups, hence I've put the very well regarded Lindy Fralin (standard wound) pick up which sounds super vintage and growly. A great fit for this bass. It comes with a very nice soft case that slides into a SKB TSA approved Bass Case ,which is a fantastic option for travelling with a hard case, but also having the option of a soft case. I don't have the original case, as it's back in the States....same with the original pick up. The bass has a few swirl marks, but no dings and looks almost as new. £1250 shipped mainland UK.
