  1. Well, I was hoping to hang on to this beauty - 'this time around' - (especially after having new strings & a pro set up - so it now once again plays like a dream) but something I've been after for a while has cropped up & this is the only piece of kit I own that would provide enough funds to buy it! In virtually mint condition - no dings, buckle rash etc - this is the very rare 'Hotrod' version of the USA Precision which has both the standard split Precision p/u AND a Jazz pickup at the bridge position - hence not only do you get the familiar 'industry standard' Precision 'thump' - but at the turn of the pan pot you also get all the Jazz growl you will ever need. Build quality & finish are at least not just 'as' good as both my American Standard Precisions I've owned but IMHO is probably even of a higher standard! & at least 'as good' as the the build quality of my old Custom Shop '59 Precision I used to own. Due to these beauties only being produced for two to three of years - or so I believe? - at the turn of the last Century + understandably once someone has one in their collection, they usually hang on to them - (if they can afford to do so of course) & therefore I don't think they come up for sale very often - or so I believe - again. Option of through body stringing, overwound split Precision & Jazz pickups. 30% lighter machine heads, volume, pan pot & tone pot & plays really well, with spot on intonation & it sounds so blinking fab - even acoustically, beautiful three tone sunburst without - as far as my old eyes can tell - any marks or blemishes - not bad for a 10 + year old instrument! High quality bridge with string spacing adjustment, beautiful flame maple neck -which feels very vintage to me + a lovely dark rosewood fingerboard - complete with Fender Gig Bag. Please excuse my dreadful photography - it looks a scrillion times better 'in the flesh' - oo-er missus!! buyer to pay for & arrange an insured courier of their choice?? Please note that if the item I'm hoping to buy gets snapped up - then I will more than likely withdraw this. If you want a try out, or have any questions, please PM me, or text or ring me on 07734 319983. I still have the original receipt for this when I bought it from The Bass Gallery **Please note that the true colour is nearer to the pic of the reverse of the body - which due to my useless photography was a fluke!
  2. Hi Guys, in addition to the Markbass heads I'm reluctantly parting with, here is my Zoot 300w 4ohm 1 x 12 Neo loaded + Tweeter Bass Cab. 64cm x 44cm x 50cm & weighing only 11.6kg - unbelievable! 2 x Jack sockets + 2 x Speakon + Tweeter variable control In excellent condition, it's very small - gets lost in the boot of my Jetta - light as the preverbial & as loud as they come. No longer available - so very rare, especially in this condition Would prefer collection - 5 minutes from J15 of the M6 - as ever Looking for £250 - but not really sure of the value?? Thanks 'again' Guys
  3. Hello Guys, it's me again - due to the aforementioned 'downsizing' in my F1 post - here is my Markbass Little Mark 250w Head - in lovely condition & loud as heck - as according to Markbass, gives out virtually the same volume at 4ohms as the 500w jobbie does at 8ohms. In 'really' good 'as new' condition - complete with original box, Owners manual & mains lead. All the usual Markbass rich, quality tones for those who don't need the extra power of the 500w version Spec. is same as the 500w jobbie apart from the power output as far as I know? Looking for £325 including next day Special Delivery, or £300 collected please, - 5 minutes away from J15 of the M6 if you want a try out? 'May' take a lower priced amp in p/x + dosh, if you can deliver/collect? Thanks Guys
  4. Hi Guys, it looks like I'm not going to need this amount of power anytime soon & therefore here is my Markbass F1 in very good condition. 500w of pure Markbass tone wrapped up in a package the size of a lap top!! I'm sure you all know what these incredible heads are capable of - how the heck they get this much volume & clarity from such a small, light package is way beyond my comprehension - being used to humping valve amps around in the 60's & 70's! Looking for £425 - inclusive of next day Special Delivery, or £400 collected - I'm 5 minutes from J15 of the M6 - so if you are within striking distance, come & have a try out? Thanks Guys, will be sorry to let this baby go - but needs, must eh? 'May' take a lower priced amp in p/x + dosh if you can collect/deliver?
  5. Hi Guys, Here is my Markbass LM250w Head in immaculate condition - with original box & manual & my Zoot 112 + tweeter 300w Neo 4 ohm cab - amazingly Ultra light - weight rig - very loud & fits into most car boots!! - in fact it's so small & light you could easily travel to a gig by Bus, or train. Looking for £550 - collected, or buyer pays for shipping May split?
  6. Great Bass, at a great price..............can't recommend these beauties enough - wonderful classic P sound, with Jazz 'growl' when needed - the 'ultimate' combination - 'two' Fenders for the price of 'one' - bargain - type bump !! ps - also quite rare now - due to only having a production run of a couple of years or so - around the turn of the last century??

  8. No, it's a private - I think, sale by johnnysonic60 - cheers
  9. Hi Guys, Always lusted after a '62 Precision - a la Mr. Jameson & there's one on that t'bay - sorry I can't do a link - I'm very old & a card carrying technophobe! - but it's always worrying not being an expert - so just wondered what the Basschat Fender aficinados thought? i.e. is it Kosher? - it looks OK to my untrained eye but what would you say it was worth?? Thanks Guys, All the best, Tim
  10. If this had a rosewood fingerboard - I'd now be handing over the dosh - type bump!!
  11. This beauty used to be mine & incredibly - considering it has no truss rod - had the lowest 'playable' action I've ever experienced on any bass, anywhere, ever! - whoever bought it will not be diasappointed & then some!! - 'still' miss it with a passion !!
  12. Hi Guys, Anyone know of any Bands playing in the Lake District area next week?? - need live music!!

  14. Great Guy & an absolute pleasure to trade with !! Deal with confidence Guys - Stephen is an absolute Gent Thanks again All the best Tim
  15. Thanks so much Guys - your help is & will be very much appreciated - it's hard for me to pick things out with my musically 'cloth ears' - but as bad as I am, I just love trying to do as good as job as possible for the sake of the other Guys in the band - even if it's just one note - as long as it's the right note! Thanks again, All the best Tim
  16. Hi Guys, Does anyone know the bassline to this classic track?? - I'm struggling to pick it up on my Dansette with my old cloth ears !! The dots, tabs, or even just the chords would be helpful?? - all donations gratefully received! All the best, Tim

  20. Hi Guys, it would appear that the kitchen viper has had a count up of my amps & has come to the sum of 'three'! - which was quickly followed by quoting me as follows:- 'It's a must to have 'two' amps - a main & a back up'!! - it's my own fault for playing with all three at the same time - hence one has to go !! It's an Eden World Tour WTX 260 - which apparently gives 300w into 4 ohms - all I know is - it's blinking loud as heck!! Built in the good old USA & has a lovely warm, deep sound - apparently - again due to the Eden Golden Chip - which is the same type as fitted to High End Mixing Desks?? - but because the EQ section has such an incredible tonal range, it's possible to dial in any sound you want from deep, deep sub bass - to a bright slap sound. Small & light enough to be picked up with two fingers - (not recommended) & will fit into a gig bag - fab! & to say it was 'feature packed' would be an understatement at the very least - check out the front & rear panels!! It's in lovely condition & can be yours for a firm £325 - including free next day, fully insured delivery, - UK only of course or £310 - collected - I'm 'still' 5 minutes from Junction 15 of the M6 - someone has to be!! - pssst on the subject of trades the only thing that would appeal is 'another' Markbass head & then I'd just have to remember 'not' to get them both out - (oo-er missus) - at the same time! Thanks Guys
  21. and replied to + new pic added as requested - showing the inside of the control cavity to show that this is an 'all graphite' model & not a wooden bodied - graphite laminated jobbie - apparently??
