2011 Squier Classic Vibe 60’s Precision - Olympic white. Excellent condition, no dings or damage. Only thing to note is some very minor marks to truss rod entry hole.

Some more photos/video not with the greatest light, the black pickguard ones are when I first got it.

Thanks for the update, I'm tempted to try one of these. What's your other fiver out of interest?

2021 EBMM Stingray Special 5H in Smoked Chrome. Immaculate condition including original hard case and case. I would love to keep on looks alone but can't justify such an expensive fiver when I can barely play fours! Only things of note are playing marks to pickguard, two tiny grazes to headstock, and a pinhead impression to rear of headstock (all very minor). These do suffer from the G string slipping off, I believe due to the proximity of the string to the edge of the fretboard and the lovely tapered fret edges. I found it needed some adjustment to technique but if you haven't played one, worth mentioning. £1800, no trades thanks. Would much prefer collection in Orpington BR6 or I'm happy to drive up to an hour away to meet. I can also get it to family in Meppershall, Beds, but no amp to try there. If no local interest will consider postage.

Swapped an EBMM Sterling with an ACG Recurve. Ian kindly made the journey to my place; a lovely chap with encyclopaedic bass knowledge. I learnt a few things and am looking forward to playing with tones on the ACG. Top banana!

1994 Sterling USA 4H - Sunburst maple - TRADED - *SOLD*
Happypants posted a topic in Basses For Sale
1994 Ernie Ball Sterling USA 4H. £1200 collected or near meet Orpington BR6. Generally fantastic condition for age. Beautiful sunburst and Birds Eye maple figuring. A few things to note: At least two of the tuners look ever so slightly bent (the bit you hold to turn). There’s a patch of finish damage under the pickguard near the neck which looks like it’s been glued back. Was like it when I got it so not sure how it’s been done. Small scratch on pickguard which goes to body. Fairly light and looks to be in top coat only. Some very minor marks to body consistent with normal use. Comes with an old and tatty but functional hard case. UK Postage considered if no “local” interest. Weight to follow. Any questions or if more pics are needed, fire away. No trades or offers at the moment, thanks! -

Glen bought a bass from me in a pleasant, hassle-free transaction. Prompt comms, prompt payment, met at a service station to handover and had a natter about basses. Top banana, enjoy!

I sent it back. Fit and finish was generally good but some really uneven frets that would have required fret levelling and that's past my ability. Fair play to Peach, once I'd sent them a video of the buzz despite raising the action (relief was fine) they took it back and paid for the postage. I've now found a matching colour (to my P) Chinese CV jazz from 2008 which is fantastic (big fan of these).
