Just to throw another angle on this interesting listing, I'm potentially looking for a nice neck for a project bass and assuming this is a standard Fender type fit, this one could fir the bill. I'm Yorkshire based though so not in a position to collect and part out myself. I'll stand back and await the sacrilege accusations 😉 -
Welcome back - saw you playing for Squeeze up at Harrogate the winter before covid. Blue 5 string jazz if I recall ?. Great night.

When and where is the rehearsal? -
The body is black walnut built by Paul Walsh @Bassmonkey, finished in Nitro Shoreline Gold by the magnificent Dave Wilson with: Fender Custom Shop ‘62 pups Badass II Bridge Kiogon loom with CTS Pots Fender tort plate Fender Precision Knobs . With the Allparts jazz neck shown in the pics, she weighs in at a respectable 9lb 4oz. It's in mint, unmarked condition. NOTE - THIS AD IS JUST FOR THE LOADED BODY Would rather do collection or happy to drop off or do a halfway meet within 1.5 hours or so of Wakefield, West Yorkshire. I'm asking £500 for the body. The complete bass is also up for sale on here for £800 Not looking for trades at this point. Happy to post within UK

Decided to put my Super Twin up for sale. It’s a great cab as we all know but I’ve a Super Compact that suffices for the types of venue we play. Think this is quite an early model but it’s in top condition, I bought if from Karlfer on here a few years back and it’s had little use in that time. It’s the cloth grill version so weighs in at a crazy 17kg. It comes with the roqsolid barefaced cover with reinforced front panel to protect the silver cloth. i’m based in Wakefield, West Yorkshire so it’s going to be collection or meet up. Not looking for any trades as I’m well stocked with gear. Asking £800 which seems fair against the £1379 new price (without cover)

Having just bought my dream amp, I'm putting this up for sale as its too good just to have hanging around as a spare. I bought it towards the end of lockdown and gigged about once a month with it since we allowed back out to play. It's in great condition and has no issues whatsoever. Anyone who knows me will tell you I look after my gear. I'm asking £525 for it and sorry but no trades on this one. I'm located in Wakefield, West Yorkshire and would prefer collection or meet up within 1.5 hours. If postage is a must then assuming i can lay my hands on a suitable box, I can post to mainland UK for £26 insured Here's the manufacturers full spec... PREAMP: The preamp utilises three 12AX7 (ECC83) tubes. Unlike the starved-plate designs of most common hybrid heads, it's pure tube with no silicon diodes, getting you even closer to the sound of a full-tube head. POWER SECTION: We use a classic A/B power supply based on an efficient toroidal transformer and large capacity electrolytic capacitors, delivering a powerful 400W into a 4ohm load. An optical limiter ensures you're always running within safe limits, and the R-400's on-board fan is thermally managed and controlled to ensure the amp runs smoothly at high volumes. CASE: * STANDARD: Ply housing, covered with black lacquer or veneered Tolex and metal corners and includes a front plate to protect the front panel, secured using two flightcase latches. The back of the R-400 is open enough to allow easy access to the rear panel features, without compromising protection. DIMENSIONS: * WxHxD: 375mm x 108mm x 315mm * Weight: 10.5kg FRONT PANEL FEATURES: * ÂĽ" input jack * MUTE switch * BRIGHT / DARK switch: Engaged: +3dB @ 100Hz, -3dB @ 750Hz, +2dB @ 10 kHz * DRIVE switch: (The DRIVE switch raises the level of the signal at the input stage by about 6dB – great for heavier genres, or for instruments with lower output). * INPUT GAIN: Using the INPUT GAIN, you can access a wide range of tones - from crystal clear to a fat, saturated harmonic crunch. 
 * BASS / TREBLE * CONTOUR: Introduces 0 to -12dB @ 1kHz * OUTPUT VOLUME * 3-state LED indicator: PROTECT / READY / LIMIT. * LINE OUT DI: a professional-quality DI, with PRE / POST gain and GROUND LIFT switches. REAR PANEL FEATURES: * POWER SWITCH * FUSE ACCESS * 2 x SPEAKON speaker connectors * EFFECTS SEND & RETURN
