WHUFC BASS

The irony being, that commie bedwetter wanted to ban Rock 'n' Roll ... screw him!

My first real bass was a Westone Thunder IA. I loved it and it's got a huge sound (think Precision on steroids). GLWTS

I had a set of these in a 76 Jazz in the early 90s and they sounded mustard. I think you might regret selling these, they're great pickups.

I guarantee that'll make no difference to the tone

Just a reiteration of what's written above, this is a great bass with a high quality build and great sound. Also @BaggyManis great to deal with too. GLWTS

I used to have a set in my old '76 Jazz. Great sounding pickups, GLWTS

*ON HOLD*

Yeah I think it's a fair price, as I say it's stamped with a "2" which as far as I can tell is from the paint on the battery cover so I've knocked a bit off for that. I've had this bass years and I just need to reduce the number of basses (he says as he just took possession of a Peavey Foundation today!)

I'm selling my Traben Chaos Core "Whisky Burl" 5 String as I've just got too many basses, so grab a bargain. I got this imported from the U.S.A at some considerable cost back in 2010 and have not been disappointed with it at all. It's the more conservative looking bases from the Traben range and it's quite rare to find one of these in the UK these days (especially a 5-string) with the Aguilar pre-amp and Rockfield active pickups. They're quite versitile as both single coils and humbuckers and with the five-way switch you can change the setup instantly (see diagram below). I've recorded two albums with it and the Aguilar OBP-3 pre-amp really sounds great for recording and live work. The Rockfield pickups really sound great (why they've never made replacement bass pickups in this range is beyond me). The 5 string neck is wide and flat yet really comfortable. Its set up nicely and its never let me down. Specs are: BRIDGE: Chaos internal bridge SCALE: 35" NECK CONSTRUCTION: bolt on PICKUPS: two Rockfield® humbuckers ELECTRONICS: Aguilar OBP-3 pre-amp CONTROLS: three-band eq with volume and five-way switch BODY: Royal Paulonia TOP: burled maple FRETBOARD Rosewood NUT synthetic There's a "2" stamped on the back of the neck which I think means it was a second but as far as I can tell, the reason for this is some white paint on the battery compartment protective film as seen in the pic. Protective film can be removed if you want. I think the straplocks on it are Dunlop. Looking for £320.

Cos I'm skint... Sort of. I could buy it for the wife and see her reaction 😂

Damn ... I've always wanted to own a Foundation and I'm not too far away either ... Must resist!!

It's only open on Burns' night.

I'll take the tuners if that's OK? PM incoming

I had one identical to this one. Superb basses and I moved it on to get a black one with a different pre-amp. The sound from these are amazing. Easily the best 5-string basses I've ever played.
