Benoit is a pleasent guy to deal with. I sent him my sandberg and got the G&L asat he was selling. Communication went very well (fast response, clear, all info needed), which I like:). Just did a setup to my taste on the asat, we will spend some time together tommorow. Cheers

Fender Aerodyne Jazz Bass Nice Japanese Fender Aerodyne. This one is from a limited run, finished in a classy old candy apple red. This pretty bass has been used but not abused. The body has fine surface scratching (like from polishing, cant get it pictured) and a few more significant small damages. Nothing serious though. There is some fret wear from use, but it doesnt affect playability. Action can be set fairly low. The Aerodyne plays very well, its fast neck feels very comfortable with its vintage style frets. The PJ setup makes it a versatile bass, suitable for most styles. Rotosound 45-105 strings have been installed. Although I like this bass, there are other basses I like more. No case or bag is included. Asking £600 --> £550 The bass is located in the Netherlands. I'm happy to ship within europe.

Thanks. Initially i saw an '68 for sale here in the netherlands. It had the lovely lollipop tuners. Though it was a heavy one at 5kg. Not much later this lightweight '71 popped up on ebay uk.

'71 Telecaster: A very resonant lightweight example. Beefy neck, but it plays nicely with a low action. I have fender flats installed, which sound and feel great. Not too vintage:). Aerodyne special run: Bought just recently. These are nice allrounders. Light in weight and comfortable to play. This is from a limited run in old candy apple red. '82 Precision special And my Precision special that seems to be moving to a new owner one of these days. Its a great sounding, playing bass. A bit heavy though. These are very well built.

Music Man Sabre Bass '79 Cool old Music Man Sabre, made in 1979. Serial number C003876. The sounds of this Sabre really kicks donkey, it has a great full agressive sound I really like. Its just awesome through my ebs fafner with eden 210xlt. I find it a much more versatile bass than the stingray. Of course it can sound like a ray (at least to my ears) with only the bridge pickup active, and bass and treble boosted. The neck pickup adds some nice, warmer other sound possibilities. This sabre almost reaches the age of 40 years, so it has its wear from decades of use. Most visible is the buckle wear on the back of the body. Further on there are several smaller damages on several places of the body. Fine lacquer cracking is to be found at sides of most frets. The bridge saddle of the A string had been replaced by a previous owner. Though I really dig the sounds coming from the sabre, I find it not as comfortable to play as my fenders. The (kinda undeep, 42mm at the nut) neck doesnt feel as it was made for me, cant really explain why...I like the fenders better. Besides that I like a low action (I play with a soft touch), and action on this one doesnt get as low as on my tele or jazz which I play most of the time. So thats why Im thinking about selling it. The sabre has gotten a full fret leveling/dressing by a professional luthier earlier this year. The sabre weighs about 4.5 kg. No case or bag is included in the sale. Though it might be possible to buy along a fender case when the bass must be shipped. Update; ive noted that the truss rod bullet has been worn out. So it needs replacement. These bullets are available through ernie ball customer service. The bass is fitted with labella flats at the moment. Pricedrop: £1.450 ----> £1.350 The Music Man is located in the Netherlands. Several shipping options possible at buyers risk Sensible (partial) trade offers are considered. Per example; 4 string precision, avri 64 jazz, musicman w/ lacquered neck, early 80s Fender jazz with dot n bound neck, mustang bass, other cool traditional style basses, amps, pedals (compressor), possibly a fender jaguar/mustang type guitar.... Or maybe even a cool late 60s fender P or J, combined trade with one of my other basses. Please do not hestitate to contact me if you have any questions or a specific and realistic partial trade offer.
