Only used for five minutes. Thought I ‘d try these on my Mini P Bass, they sound really good - but I prefer the feel of my nylon coated jobbies under my old fingers. These are apparently specifically made by La Bella to fit the Fender Squier Mini P Bass & are 31 inches from the ball end to where the silks start, so should also fit other short scale Basses with the same dimensional requirements. £25 including postage to the U.K. Mainland. Since the 50s and 60s, La Bella’s DEEP TALKIN’ BASS Stainless Steel Flat Wounds have been the choice of professional bass players and continue to be the standard for the best sounding Flat Wounds on the market. Stainless Steel Flat Wound; hand-polished for incredibly smooth finish 31″ Wound Length (distance from the ball-end to where the silk begins is 31″; the silk must start after the nut and only the silk can wrap around the tuner) Medium Tension String Gauges: .049, .069, .089, .109 Top Load Only (do not string through the body of the bass or they will break) Made in the USA with American Wire Packaged using MAP Technology (Modified Atmosphere Packaging) to prevent tarnishing and ensure freshness This particular set is NOT suitable for basses with bridges that require strings to pass through the body of the instrument. Hopefully, here’s a link to a Chap demonstrating them. https://youtu.be/Da54YGS7ygQ

Dave kindly let me buy back my short scale Bass when I realised I still needed one after all in ‘my dotage’ Perfect transaction as ever with second to none communication skills & a pleasure to deal with from start to end. Thanks again Dave👍

‘Candy Apple Red’ - my least favourite finish ever! - no offence😂🙈

Thomastik - Infeld Flats - initially a five string set, but can be used on a four string without the C string. Only light use, so may need to be ‘run in’ a bit more. Gauges are - 33 / 43 / 56 / 70 / 100 £35 posted to the U.K. Would trade for La Bella Deep Talkin' Bass 750T White Nylon Tape - 50 to 105 gauge four string.

John made a loom for my P Bass and the difference in sound is amazing! In my humble opinion, swapping out the Loom for one of Johns is always the first port of call before investing in new pickups etc Just explain to him what sound you are looking for & John will recommend the right type of capacitor + they are so easy to fit being solder less, that even an old duffer like me can change the loom over in minutes. His excellent communication skills and quality of workmanship are superb. Thanks again John - ‘Mustard’👍

Brian sold me a lovely Bass and was kind enough to go ‘above and beyond’ by dropping it off for me. He is a great Chap and I would highly recommend him to all BC’rs without reservation. Thank again Brian - Fab👍

That’s exactly what l’ve been looking for😟😟🙈🙈 What a cracker❤️❤️👍👍

Bought from this very Parish, but not using them. Had around 20 hours use, so plenty of life left. Slightly Trimmed to fit a P or J with plenty of silk left for a good few winds. Thanks for the heads up. Also fitted my long scale 2 + 2 Yamaha. Quite expensive when new - see last photo of the price on Amazon. Postage included - U.K. Mainland only

I know, I realised it was the wrong one - but it wouldn’t let me delete it😟😟🙈🙈

Could be a bit of a bargain if you are close enough to check it out - it’s collection only😟🙈 https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/306473062918 Oops sorry, wrong one🙈🙈

Would be a bit of a boat anchor for me, plus still a bit pricey for a refin with the infill - in my humble opinion of course.

Dave bought my Mini P Bass. He was an absolute pleasure to deal with from start to end and I would recommend him to all BC’ers without reservation. Thanks again Dave👍

This one is ‘almost’ within my budget for an early 60’s P - apart from the infilled body it looks OK to my untrained eye - what does the team think? https://www.vintageandmodernguitars.co.uk/product/1960-fender-precision-bass-olympic-white-copy/

Thanks Pete, The crazy thing is that it plays & sounds at least ‘as good’ as a custom jobbie Rob made for me around ten years ago at over five times the price! & being very ‘Old School’ - I actually prefer the dry woody sound of this one + wang the bridge pickup wide open & we’re in Jaco territory - the sound that is, definitely not my playing😂😂🙈🙈👍…
