  1. Hi - had these in a bass, but not using them any more. The Precision is the Korean PBVE-1 Alnico pickup that currently retails for £64) - it was installed by the Bass Doc & never gigged. The neck Jazz pickup is the JBE-1N Alnico - think it's the same as the JBE-1F pickup that retails for £49. [attachment=171671:IMG_20140914_124743856.jpg] [attachment=171672:IMG_20140914_124650335.jpg] I'm looking for £25 for the Precision & £15 for the Jazz, or £25 for both. I'll post them too for that price, or collection from Newcastle is an option. Cheers, B.
  2. Hi - clearing out a load of parts & have a couple of Westone bodies plus a pair of necks lying around. If you don't know about them then they were made in the early '80s & are a medium scale precision. More info at [url="http://www.westone.info/concord1bass.html"]http://www.westone.i...ncord1bass.html[/url] The bodies are alder & pretty decent quality. One neck is an original Westone (with old tuners), but the other came to me in a trade. It's a medium scale maple / rosewood with stick on blocks & a Fender logo. I've never strung them up & don't have any spare neck plates, so I don't know what they're like set up (bought a load of parts & only used the pickups). I'll also throw in a few bridges & a pair of original scratchplates. [attachment=171667:IMG_20140913_142506498.jpg] To be honest I need a bit of space in the house so I'll do the lot for £30 collected from Newcastle upon Tyne! Cheers, B.
  3. Hi - I have one of these lying around so thought I'd put it up for sale. It was going to be used in a project & I've owned it from new - had it on a bass briefly that was never gigged, but went back to a traditional bridge. Don't have the packaging or screws / allen keys, so how does £30 posted sound? [attachment=171666:IMG_20140914_124611754.jpg] Alternatively, I'm in Newcastle upon Tyne if collection is possible... Cheers, B.
  4. Hi - I bought these pickups a while ago for a project, but never used them. Theyre the Korean Sky versions designed by Kent Armstrong & have been sat in their boxes without being wired up, so are as new. Current retail for one is £59.95 on the WD Music site, but I'll do the both of them for £40 posted! [attachment=171665:IMG_20140914_124839460.jpg] Alternatively, a collection in Newcastle upon Tyne is an option. Cheers, B.
  5. Thanks all for the interest - the bass is now on hold pending the usual... Cheers, B.
  6. [quote name='alyctes' timestamp='1409601865' post='2541458'] These are great basses. Well made, fast skinny neck, sound good, look good. I'm tempted to buy it as an investment, but that seems a waste of a fine instrument. Bike shops often have nice strong boxes [/quote] Yeah - think these US Peaveys will start to rocket in price soon. I'm with you though - this one really should be played! Would prefer a face-to-face deal really - had a few courier nightmares recently... Cheers, B.
  7. [quote name='cocco' timestamp='1409514929' post='2540442'] Why did you have to be so far north? It would cost me that to collect it :/ [/quote] Shame, but I would prefer to do a collection sale really - if I can sort out some decent packaging then I'll give you a shout...
  8. Hi - I'm selling my white Peavey Foundation Bass that I bought a while ago on here. It was made in the USA (I was told it's from 1987) & is basically Peavey's take on the Fender Jazz Bass. It has a beautiful slim maple neck, rosewood fingerboard & a pair of Super Ferrite pickups, which have a lot more presence & output than an average Jazz. There's a lot of love for these in the States, but not that many made it over here - Peavey basses from this era were really good quality & I think they'll be seen as classics in the future. Only selling it as I'm not playing bass as much as I'd like these days. It's in a really good condition & bizarrely still has the plastic on the control cover on the back! Looking for £175 collected - I'm based in Newcastle upon Tyne.

  9. Interesting thread - here's what Kim Deal has to say on bass players... [url="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WCPy_57z4_w"]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WCPy_57z4_w[/url]

    Met up with Will yesterday to buy an old Yamaha from him. This was the third time we've traded & as ever he is an absolutely top guy to deal with - cheers!
  12. Hi Jimmy - I'm hoping to do a face-to-face deal really. If I can sort out packing I'll update the thread. Cheers - B.
  13. Hi - I'm selling my white Fender Precision for £250 collected. It's a Mexican model from approx. 2008 looking at the serial number & is in pretty good condition. It's been recently set up by the Bass Doc so plays well & it's currently strung with Status flatwound strings. It's also one of the lightest Precisions I've ever played. The tort plate isn't original & was fitted by the previous owner. I'd consider a trade for a Precison-style bass with a Jazz neck , with cash either way depending on the deal. If anyone has a US Peavey Fury in white they want to part with then give me a shout! I'd also consider something with a medium scale neck. I'm in Newcastle & the price is for collection. I'd prefer to do a face-to-face deal if possible. Cheers, B.
  14. Bought a Peavey Foundation from Stompbox & he's a great guy to deal with. We had a total nightmare with Parcelforce, which was no fault of his - they've moved the local depot 20 miles out of town & refused to deliver a bass to a Post Office as it's too big! Despite all this, Stompbox's comms were great & the bass was expertly packed, so made it here without any problems. Trade with confidence - thanks again!
  15. Great album! The bass player was Marco Nelson, who I think went on to play with Paul Weller. Ever heard anything else he played on?

  17. [quote name='Marsy' timestamp='1399298828' post='2442846'] I saw that yeah, I have one in the same colour! Love it to bits [/quote] Sold it now - didn't think it would hang around long...
  18. Sold my Squier medium scale Precision to Pestie. Straightforward transaction - despite living at the opposite end of the country to me, we managed to sort out a face-to-face deal with a relative in the north & I dropped it off. Cheers!
  19. [quote name='Pestie' timestamp='1399194275' post='2441843'] I'll have this then [/quote] Sold!
  20. [quote name='kristo' timestamp='1398800747' post='2437785'] Any interest in a sunburst Squier Vintage Modified Mustang bass plus cash? [/quote] Hi Kristo - thanks for the offer, but I'm not really looking for another short scale at the mo. Cheers, B.
