Note: this is not the compact bass pedal - admittedly I bought in haste! Having said that, this thing works brilliantly - some bass players even seem to prefer it, from the scientific research (Googling) I have since done! Anyways, my bass OCD won’t allow me to keep it, so here it is. Oh, and just for the record, I bought the Bass Compact, gigged with it last night and it sounds exactly the bloomin’ same….. Pickup Bournemouth would be great - happy to pack/post to the UK for a fiver.

So it’s time to let this one go .. was my go-to bass for ages. The Bassman sticker will come off, as will the luminous markers on the neck .. although they are really good for when you’re stuck at the back of a dark stage. Happy take it all off if requested! Totally stock - not monkeyed around with at all. I took the scratchplate off as soon as I bought it (10 years ago in New Jersey). Still have it somewhere…. Hofner brand wirewounds are fitted and a spare set are also included, as is the leather Hofner strap that was originally supplied. Will take more pics if needed - collection Bournemouth but will courier at cost! Cheers folks, thanks for looking!

Does exactly what it says on the box - only I don’t have one…. everyone knows anyways! Happy to post for a fiver.

Here’s my Dug pedal - works a treat! A few minor blemishes after rolling around in my gig bag but an immaculate range of tones. A change of musical direction has meant that I’ve only been using it as a tuner - criminal waste! Tin, manual, reg. cert and shiny sticker included! Collection Bournemouth or will post for a fiver.

Virtually new, personally brought over from the US as they seem hard to find in the UK. Hardly gigged - maybe four times - not a mark on it. A very tight focussed sound IMO, a one-hand lift! A fantastic cab, I'm only selling as going combo/ in-ears. Comes with a new Roqsolid zipper bag/cover. Collection from Bournemouth only!

So here are my two Subway cabs … the 115 was bought used and has been a brilliant cab. The 210 is a lot newer and has been gigged far less. The 115 comes with a new Roqsolid cover. Great condition on both, no dings, scuffs, scars etc. Only selling these great cabs because I’ve been sucked down the GR Bass/in-ears vortex! (And happy to be here…) I gave the cabs a quick damp wipe before taking the pics…. hadn’t quite dried, tolex is actually perfect! Collection Bournemouth or happy to meet somewhere mutual.

Here’s my isobaric (whatever that means..) 212 …. actually bought this a couple of months ago to see if it would pair OK with my GR combo. It did .. then a GR 112 cab came along, so this great little cab is surplus. 2x12 rated at 600w into 8 ohms, with a small footprint and not crazy heavy. A little tolex peel on the back but not awful. Collection Bournemouth or happy to meet somewhere reasonable! Cheers.

Never thought of that - now tucked away for future reference! Cheers!

Here’s my trusty Mesa … in very good shape, no dents or dings (thanks to the flightcase which is included in the sale). Countless gigs and never let me down. I put the cups in the lid of the case to stop the amp sliding off the top of the cabs - it works! Pickup only I’m afraid or happy to meet somewhere within reason. Cheers guys.

Have DM’d you … thanks!

Firstly - no, this does NOT INCLUDE THE BASS!! So I’m thinking of scaling down my onstage setup as I find myself more frequently just using a combo with in-ears - and I’m loving the simplicity! Less rock n’roll I guess, but there you go, the reality is that somehow I reluctantly appear to be hurtling towards 70. This is a Mesa D800 with a Subway Ultralite 1x15 and Ultralite 2x10. There are the usual Mesa slip covers for the cabs and the 115 has a brand new Roqsolid cushioned cover. The amp sits in the flightcase with its cables. A nice, neat, easy to carry/transport unit with a massive Mesa sound. These do not seem to crop up very often on the used market here in the UK. I’m happy to take and upload more detailed pics if there’s any interest, just ask. Collection only from sunny Bournemouth. Cheers!

So here is the second of the two basses I thought I would never part with. (The first was my White Falcon and I miss it! If you’re reading this, I hope you’re enjoying her, Dale). This 1967 4005 is, of course, in played condition, I’d say pretty good actually for a well enjoyed 57 year old. As the pics show there are a few battle scars here and there with a surprisingly small area of buckle rash on the back. There’s also some varnish cracking/lifting at the top of the fretboard. The original case gave up the ghost some time ago so there’s a replacement hard shell one included. (Hard to find!) Pickups sound good and strong to me (last gig with her was a month or so ago, I don’t use her all the time - I have to be selective). I’ve never had her set up or adjusted, I’d say any fret wear is minimal despite the rounds I fitted and her neck is straight. As far as I’m aware everything is original, I don’t have the courage or the necessary skills to start taking things apart but I guess I’d be prepared to lift the scratchplate for pics if needed. I’ve had the privilege of owning her for, I think, about 10 years, purchased from a Talkbass member in New Jersey. The only trade I’d be up for would specifically be against a 1956 Precision …. any out there?? Happy to take more pics if asked. Sorry, UK sale only and there is absolutely no way she’s going anywhere with any kind of courier so it’s strictly collection only or possibly a mutually agreed meet-up. Thanks for looking!
