[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.

[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...

Thanks Will - much appreciated!

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.

Hi All - thanks for the interest. I sold it locally today. Cheers, B.

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.

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.

[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.

Hi - been asked a couple of questions so I thought I'd share them here. The finish has faded to more of a vintage white colour & the weight is quite light - between 7-8lb on our old bathroom scales. Nut width is 1.65" - the neck isn't slim like a Jazz, but is very comfortable. Cheers, B.

Hi - I'm reluctantly putting my white / rosewood Squier Medium (32") Scale Precision up for sale. You don't see too many of these about over in Britain - it's a slightly scaled-down Precision that's no longer being made. It's a Japanese E Series, which means it was built somewhere between 1981 & 1984. There are a couple of dings, but it's in pretty good shape for a 30 year old bass! It came to me with a white scratchplate, but since I've had it the Bass Doc has set it up, built a tortoise shell scratchplate & installed a chrome bridge cover. I'll throw the white plate in with the sale. It's currently strung with Status flats, which give it a classic thump. I don't have a case, so I'm aiming to do a face-to-face deal - I'm based in Newcastle upon Tyne. Give me a shout if you want any more pics or have any questions.
