Dearmond Starfire Bass, Cherry red, good condition, with Guild hard case. Sensible offers considered. I bought this used a while back. It’s in lovely condition, sounds and plays great. But after living with it for a while I find the string spacing a little narrow for my old timer fat Fender fingers. I’m culling my over bloated bass collection, so basses that don’t get played much are the first to go. It’s fitted with chrome Gretsch volume and tone controls. Collection in person preferred, but can ship at buyers expense (to be assessed). Please PM with any questions. Cheers!

Dingwall Combustion 5, Vintage Burst. Excellent condition, with Dingwall gig bag. I bought this from fellow BC’er kwmlondon earlier this year after seeing my hero Leland Sklar play in London last January, which caused me to become somewhat “multiscale curious”. Sadly, after playing parallel fretted basses professionally for well over 40 years I have found adapting to the fanned frets not as straightforward as I would have hoped. This really is a great sounding and versatile instrument, so rather than putting it away in my guitar cupboard I have decided to move it on to someone a bit more adaptable. I have only used it at home and on one gig so it is pretty much in almost perfect condition. It also comes with 2 alternative scratch plates (black & clear), as well as the tort plate fitted currently. Additionally, the previous owner managed to get Sheldon Dingwall to sign the back of the headstock! (See pic). Collection in person is preferred, but I can ship at buyers expense to the UK only (cost to be assessed). Please PM with any questions.

Kim, you are far too kind! Many thanks for the painless deal, and your very kind words! I'm very happy with the Dingwall, and all I have to do now is unlearn 40+ years of left hand technique! Thanks again and all the best! Cheers, Dave B.

FS - KK Baby Bass, Classic model. Very good condition. £950 ovno. I bought this new in 2020, used for recording only, never been gigged or even taken out of the house. Has the perfect Ampeg Baby Bass vibe for Jazz, Latin, Blues, or whatever you like. Comes with original soft case. The reason for sale? I am an old timer approaching retirement, and it’s time to reduce my instrument inventory to a more sensible level. This is just one item from a large selection of gear that I’m letting go. This is not a small or lightweight item so collection in person only, or I could deliver/ rendezvous within 15 miles of Southend in Essex. Paypal preferred. Please PM with any questions.

For sale - £750 ovno. Fender Roadworn Jazz Bass in Fiesta Red. This is actually a bitza, and is priced accoringly. To explain; I bought the genuine Fender Roadworn body some time ago from Stratosphere in the USA, intending to use it in a self-build project which I later abandoned as the neck I had wasn’t a good fit in the neck pocket. So then I bought the Fender Roadworn neck from Andertons, which was a perfect fit. I put on a set of Fender reverse wind machine heads, Fender pickups and Fender Hi-Mass bridge. The scratch plate is of unknown origin, and had been sitting in my spares box for years. The result is a very nice feeling and sounding bass. It’s currently strung with D’Addario Chromes and sounds exactly as it should. I have used it on a few gigs and been very happy. The neck is straight and true and there is zero fret wear. The reason for sale? I am an old timer pro player approaching retirement, and it’s time to reduce my instrument inventory to a more sensible level. I no longer want or need 5 Jazz Basses (?🤔?), so this was last in and first out. I would prefer collection in person, or can deliver/rendezvous within 15 miles of Southend in Essex. I will consider shipping at buyers cost. I should be able to find a case of some sort for it, and it will be in a proper bass guitar shipping box. PM me with any questions. Thanks for looking.

For Sale; UNUSED COMBINATION FLIGHTCASE, IT’S AS NEW!!! I really need to shift this asap. Someone give me £30 0r something? Odyssey FZ1004 DJ Combo Flight Case. Never used! I bought it recently for a project that has been abandoned. I didn't need the stock sloping top rack so did a quick conversion to make the top rack level (see pic), but it can be very easily reverted to it's stock sloping configuration if required. 4u front rack, 10u top rack, with removable rear access door for cables. Bag of rack nuts and bolts included. Normal list price £241, can be found at £152. Local pickup preferred. Can ship at buyers cost in original packaging, (cost to be calculated), but it's pretty heavy.
