[quote name='Hazy Bass' timestamp='1507673234' post='3387230'] As sblueplanet says, great basses and very underrated. I had a fretless back in the 1980s and my brother had the fretted version. Terrific build quality and sound. Don't recall seeing too many black ones either. GLWTS! [/quote] Thank you sir! Yes! When I purchased it me and the previous owner had a chat about the black ones (with black necks) seemed to be a lot rarer... Cheers! C

Am also now considering trades of equal value....

Thanks mate, well both. A lot of the Actives you seem to come across have been tampered with. This hasn't been, it seems people liked to convert these from the original 18v circuit to 9v, maybe to save money on batteries?! Yes, hoards of passives were produced which obviously marketed for quite bit less. To find a 100% original Thunder 1A is quite rare. People had a habit of modifying them or changing them in some way (Weird refinishes etc) Oh and, a big YES. The preamp really is that awesome, can achieve everything £1000+ basses can & better. It can get everything from smooth, thump lows that fit in the mix to cutting through like a sword. I guarantee first to try will buy it. Cheers C

£350, my lowest price folks!

[quote name='Iheartreverb' timestamp='1506076251' post='3376262'] Hi all, Selling off a few bits, feel free to make offers, these need to go to pay for recording to be done. Squier VM Jaguar, 3TS- £250 Immaculate condition. Isn't supplied with gig bag and I don't think I have the term arm. Very little use. Pro setup with 11's. Yamaha Super Flighter 500/ SF500, white- £500 The rarer which version of these guitars. Very good condition for age (78 or 79), feels half way between a big les paul neck and a kind of SG style body. Not supplied with case. Sigma DM15- £200 Solid top, all mahogany with Grover tuners. Includes good quality gig bag, spare D'Addario EXP112's and D'addario soundhole tuner. So this price is over £100 of the guitar and extras new. Prices include UK postage. I can't add photos at the minute but should be able to email, text or whatsapp them easily enough of you ask. Again, offers welcome as stuff needs to get paid for. Thanks! [/quote] Any pics of the Sigma?

Trying to talk myself out of this one...

FEELER!! So here is probably one of the rarer all original Westone Thunder 1A basses you'll ever see. All original and all working as it should. 18v Active circuit provides lovely boomy smooth lows with the combination of the P pickup really demonstrating the Japanese brilliance of these basses. What makes this truly awesome is, yes, it has the original Japanese Westone case! Which is also pristine and not falling to bits!! One of the previous owners had left 2 holes towards the top horn, Thumb rest maybe?? No issues whatsoever, neck straight, fantastic overall condition finish & otherwise. Truss rod works fine. Frets have minimal wear and the fingerboard is perfectly clean & conditioned. As with all of these basses, the brass hardware tends to flake/tarnish. There is minimal of both on this bass. I also want to mention the strings. Now, because it's a special bass, I figured I couldn't just slap any old strings on this beast. These strings are LIMITED EDITION and EXTREMELY RARE, La Bella Gold Nylon Tapewound "Purple Haze" which are now very much discontinued and were only available to buy over in the USA directly from La Bella I believe. (A friend sorted me out) Since this is a feeler, I'd really like to find the bass a home where it's appreciated for what it is rather than "I want to restring and mod the hell out of it". (If you're planning on restringing it, I'll keep the La Bella strings and I'll happily put the buyers preferred set on at the going rate) Obviously if you're looking at this and know these basses you realize the quality that came out of the Matsumoku factory. In my opinion the Westone stuff tops anything 80's and Japanese. The Rolls Royce of 80's Japanese Intstruments!! I've seen these basses sell at varying prices, however the passive ones sell £150-£200. The actives seem to go £350 and up. (Currently a Thunder 1A on eBay for £385 without the original case & with bids) So I'm asking £400 Cash on collection from Ashbourne Derbyshire. Which is a fair price I reckon. You'll be funding a new Leather Jacket, us bassists got to keep it stylish yano!! I'm pretty set on price as you don't often come across these with the original case too, so unfortunately I won't take a penny less, so no silly offers please. Thanks C

Still here

Bump!

[quote name='Kev' timestamp='1506154066' post='3376731'] Say the word bud and its yours..... [/quote] Trust me sir I’m still rather tempted. Sorta scared that If I tried the 5 my beloved Blackburl would be walking out the door with you! Why are all Alpher basses just so gorgeous!!!?

Still here. Quality cheap bass for pennies.

[quote name='AdamWoodBass' timestamp='1506022792' post='3376004'] Pretty sure I played this bass at the North West Guitar Show earlier this year. Either that or it was one remarkably similar. If it is the one I played I can personally vouch that this is one of the finest basses I have ever played in the 20 years I've been playing. Absolute bargain at that price, this will make someone very very happy. Good luck with the sale! [/quote] Aye it was this one! I was sat next to you! It’s a cracker!!
