  1. This is the very jobbie - very well made & fits like the proverbial glove👍👍 https://ebay.us/m/Qb5nNN
  2. Frank kindly bought a P Bass from me. He was an absolute pleasure to deal with & comes highly recommended to all BC’ers👍👍 Thanks again Frank.
  3. These are excellent instruments - great tonal variation & just sooooooo easy to play. Good price too - GLWTS 👍👍
  4. 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😂😂🙈🙈👍…
  5. How much are kidneys fetching these days? - asking for a friend……… https://ebay.us/m/AAxh9X
  6. Yet another great Loom from John - fitted it in minutes, but then I thought there was a problem with one of the pots. Sent a ‘help’ PM to John to which he replied to quickly with his expert advice that from my description of the problem he’d sussed that one of the pickups was possibly out of phase, so a quick switch around of the wires & ‘Boomshanka’ - Thanks John, ‘Outstanding’👍
  7. Traded some strings with Andy. He was an absolute pleasure to deal with, a real Gent & I would heartily recommend him to all BC’ers without reservation. Thank you again Andy - ‘Outstanding’👍👍 Cheers, Tim
  8. La Bella Deep Talkin’ Bass Stainless Steel 760FS Flats .045 .065 .085 .105 Opened today but not fitted, so as new. Price includes postage to the U.K. Mainland Would be interested in exchange for Light Gauge Ti Flats in same condition.
  9. My ‘Mini Marvel’ well sorted travel, backup, beginner, student, studio, holiday or just noodling on the sofa Bass which is approximately the same size as a Strat! The Bass is a Fender Squier Mini P Bass in Dakota red with a lovely flamed maple satin finished neck (so no stickiness) & I’ve listed below the upgrades I made to improve what was already a lovely mini Bass & is in virtually mint condition…….I can’t find any marks anywhere, albeit with my old eyes! Levelled the frets. Fitted replacement Tonerider ‘The Duke’ pickups - big fat sound. Replaced the single ply white pick guard with a lovely four ply - celluloid top layer Tort jobbie. Standard loom replaced with a Pro KiOgen solderless loom. Fitted La Bella Black Nylon Tape Wound short scale strings. Nicely figured Indian Laurel fingerboard which I treated to some Fender Custom Shop oil. Added a used Gibson Levey’s thickly padded Gig Bag, which has a bit of wear at the top - please see pics, but still does its job with fully working zips & fits out of sight in the boot of most cars. The result of my tinkering is a ridiculously easy to play big fat sounding, lightweight Mini Bass which can be played all day long with a very low action all the way up the neck. Weight is just 2.7kg, or 5.95lbs in ‘old money’ - so ideal for long Gigs for young and old players alike. Can post to the U.K. Mainland only, sorry at cost price of £23.95 24 hour, fully insured. What Fender say…………. The Squier Mini Precision Bass® is the perfect companion for players seeking a reduced-size instrument with classic styling and familiar Fender® tone. Highlights include a thin and lightweight body, a short-scale neck with an easy-to-play "C"-shaped profile, a Squier split single-coil pickup with volume and tone controls for sonic variety, and a hardtail bridge for solid tuning stability. Features 100% Designed by Fender Thin and lightweight body Short-scale neck Split single-coil Precision Bass pickup Sealed die-cast tuning machines Body Body Material Poplar Body Shape Mini Precision Bass® Neck Maple with a none gloss satin finish. Indian Laurel Fingerboard treated with Fender Custom Shop oil.

  11. I bought some strings from Pete & he was a pleasure to deal with - well packaged + fast delivery. Thanks Pete👍
  12. I bought an amp from Gareth & he was an absolute pleasure to deal with from start to end. Great item + excellent packaging & fast delivery - Outstanding👍 Thanks Gareth.
  13. Thank you Mr. R. If it sells I’m sure I will be just as devastated as when I sold my last AVRI P Bass, but as I’m only noodling in my dotage it seems a bit extravagant to hang on to it - especially when the MOT on my jalopy is due next month😟😟🙏🙏🙈🙈!
  14. According to La Bella this is ‘100% OK’ but I would prefer it if only the silks were anywhere near the tuning post - any thoughts fellow BC’ers?
  15. Ritter dual padded Bass Gig Bag in excellent condition with all zips working and easily houses two long scale Basses such as Precision or Jazz style instruments. Twin shoulder straps. Collection welcome, or can be posted via Parcelforce 24 hour service at cost price of £10.70 to the U.K. Mainland.
  16. Bought some strings from David & everything was spot on as usual. Thanks again David, very much appreciated👍👍
