Price drop to GBP 1800 / EUR 2100 I will be in the UK this weekend (25-26 near Bedford) and early next week (27-28-29 in London). Happy to take the bass with me for a confirmed sale. -
Appreciate it's not what you want to hear but... try them! Some Squier CV punch quite a bit above their weight, so it is true that the difference in terms of sound is likely to be negligible. The main difference will be in the feel of the roadworn finish (particularly neck) and in the neck shape. What previous bass are you coming from? The vintage spec P neck with C width is not for everyone, but the front to back profile makes it ok. You'll find many people who actually prefer the feel of the narrower B neck of the CV. The radius is less likely to have an impact, but it's also different - 7.25 on the Vintera and 9.5 for the Squier. I would find a way to try them, or buy from a place with a good returns policy if trying isn't an option.

Tech 21 VT Bass Di preamp, in very good condition. Bought from Thomann in September 2024, only used at home and in studio. It comes with its original box. I am based in Paris, but regularly travel to London. Postage in EU possible, postage in UK also possible but possibly delayed (as it needs to be done when I’m in London). Postage cost not included. Thanks for looking -
Drop to GBP 2700 / EUR 3200 I will be in the UK from the 3rd to the 8th of July, can bring the bass with me for a fairly certain sale. I'll be in London, Cardiff, near Bath and again London. -
You are right actually! I got confused with the active/passive push-pull. Corrected now

It really depends, sometimes you'll come across a boutique bass that goes around in circles, and it has no end really!

These don't really come up often for sale. Last one I saw was from a dealer who was looking at close to £2,000. I would have thought for a private sale it would clear somewhere in the £1,600-1,800 allowing for some inflation. It really depends however on how much you want it, it's definitely a bass that you want to snap up when you come across it if it feels right. I have been keeping an eye out myself for a faded sonic blue one and they just don't seem to get sold!

I am selling my Warwick Thumb NT from 1989. This is the fourth Thumb I own, as it took me a while to settle on an early 4-strings NT with 2 bands eq. Unfortunately I had surgery to my left shoulder and the ergonomics of the bass (long reach to 1st fret) really don’t work anymore for me. Body is bubinga, neck laminated wenge/bubinga, EMG pickups, 2-band MEC electronics, black Schaller hardware. The bass comes with its Rockbass gigbag. I don’t have the exact weight (can check) but it’s definitely heavy! Located in Paris, but also available for sale in London. EU shipping possible at buyer’s risk, no UK shipping. Priced at 2200 EUR / 2000 GBP EUR 2100 / GBP 1800 any questions, please let me know!

I was there on Saturday night, he was playing what looked like a 68-73 sunburst P bass with both covers on

Back on, and now EUR 3300 / GBP 2750

Withdrawn - Keeping it for now on second thoughts.

I’m selling my Fender Custom Shop 1961 Jazz Bass in faded sonic blue over sunburst, stack knobs. It comes with its case and the case candy (as shown). Currently strung with TI flats. I bought it in 2024 from BassBros, I love the finish but I find myself always reaching for the Precision, so I can’t justify having it. I am based in France, but I travel to London regularly. Collection in Paris preferred, shipping within the EU or collection in London also possible. Sorry but no UK shipping. The price is 3400 EUR or 2800 GBP, shipping excluded. Trades I’d consider only: Fender Custom Shop Precision relic (not sunburst) Possibly also Fender AVRI Precision 2013-2017 in faded sonic blue + cash my way Fender AVRI Jazz from the same series + cash Any questions, let me know! Thanks

No, I bought it on here from someone who had bought it on here from someone else who bought it on Reverb. There’s probably a longer chain onwards so my thinking is the same as yours so far, probably a swap at some point in his life

The bass sale that turned a (massive) corner… - *SOLD*

Donated again. As someone before me very rightly said on the JG page "I don't know Andy personally, but I'm a father". -
I have the opposite situation on my Precision, and I am not 100% sure how to explain it. The pots are 66 The serial number would point to 69 (264XXX) The neck is 71 I would have thought the neck plate with the serial number should be the last thing to go on together with the neck, so why would anyone put a 69 plate on a 71 neck escapes me...
