  1. The phrase "above and beyond" comes to mind. Ted was kind enough to meet me half way to make a deal for his MarkBass cab, and i cant thank him enough for that. Top man. Much appreciated. Thanks Ted
  2. Ultra rare 32" medium scale Squier JV Jazz, made in Japan 1982-1984. This is a quality vintage instrument. Fantastic clear sound. Very easy to play with a nice low action. Weighs approx 3.5kg. Even though its medium scale, it doesnt feel like the frets size make it difficult to play at all. I'm looking for trades, but only with a passive P type bass. I can make a cash adjustment for the right bass. Bonus points for a J neck. What ya got? I can courier, but it comes with all the normal risks. Any other questions just give me a shout.
  3. I got this bass around the beginning of the year from EAD. Really cool bass. Looks great and plays superbly well! HUGE range of tonal options. Here are its mods: The original light oak finish has been stripped back and the body lightly stained with a black oil finish. The headstock has been reshaped (hint of Fodera maybe?). New tuners fitted (originals have been lost in the mists of time). Pickup and electronics are all original (and work fine). New knobs (again the originals are AWOL). Bridge cover and thumb rest added. The bass weighs 4kgs on my digital scales. I can post but would prefer a meet up. I am happy to look at trades for a passive P type bass. I can put cash on top for the right bass. Extra points for a J neck.

  5. I dont think i need to say too much about these. Great bit of kit. Cant believe how cheap they are selling for these days! Mental! I have gone through ALL the different amps you can imagine whilst i was gigging. This is the one i kept coming back to. Even when i stopped gigging, i kept this one "just incase". Well i am going to start gigging again, and the only reason im selling this is to fund a MarkBass combo. Comes with the amp bag. As with the Ashdown combo im selling, only interested in MarkBass combos as a potential trade. Happy to answer any questions. Thanks
  6. I picked this up quickly to get me going with a newly formed band. It was up at an absolute bargain price (Same as i'm advertising it for). Had to put a deposit to secure it. Did so. Tried it with band.... Its not "my" sound. I play through MarkBass. Always have, guess i always will. Check the "Items Wanted" section. Nothing wrong with this though! Plenty loud enough for small gigs. Lots of tonal options. Plenty of weight behind it (trying really hard not to say heft) I'm not a techy kind of person, so im not sure of the mid frequencies and shifts, but there are a feck load of options! It has Mid shift, Bass Shift, Bright Switch. Hell of an amp and combo for £120! I prrrrobably can post it, but this bad boy isnt light, so do bare that in mind. Only trade id be interested in would be in the MarkBass combo shape. Thanks

  7. It was a good one for sure! It's why I went for another one. I really like the Ps, but they were always too heavy to be playing lots of gigs in a row with. Cool basses though. Yes mate stopped with the wedding band at COVID. Just enjoyed having my weekends back tbh!! Still do session/studio work for my mates. Still play lots. Just not live anymore. Hope you are doing good too 👍🏼
  8. I am probably favouring a P over a jazz. But im genuinely not committed to that either. I've seen some jazzes i really like in the past. And yes, ive had a build from Mark in the past. I had a purple P made by him. Wouldn't be surprised if thats still doing the rounds here. I only sold that because of the weight and i was gigging a lot at that time. This time Its for home and studio use. Im not gigging live anymore, so i dont mind the weight as ill be sitting down. And as im buying a relic, i do definitely want it to look like its "done its time". Otherwise id just buy a new one, right?
  9. Thanks both, had a look, neither of those "do it" for me. I appreciate the heads up though
  10. If anyone has a Limelight they are thinking of selling, send me a message. Preference for a P, but id consider a jazz too Thanks
  11. I used to gig regularly in weddings and function bands. Sold everything too. But kept my two favorite basses. And don't regret that I did. I popped on here to buy a practice amp for the first time in like 3 years as a bit of mojo has returned. Andnwhaddayaknow I have my two favorite basses I can still play. Happy days. Hope everyone is well
  12. Boss Bass Chorus Pedal. I always wanted to be a pedal guy. Never was though. So im getting rid of the ones i have. This one is in great condition, and it does work. I tested it this morning. £40 Will post for £5 too.
  13. I have one in South Wales if anyone wants to try before they buy. Great bass. I love mine
  14. Im struggling to find packaging to send this, so pick up only now
  15. South Wales. Sorry for the delay. Haven't been on in a while
  16. Thanks, if i were still in a band i wouldnt be selling it
  17. Just sold an amp to Jon. No troubles at all. Cheers mate, and hope you get a chance to gig the amp!
  18. Bought this in March because i heard great things about them. They do sound amazing. But as you may see from my other sales posts, the band isnt planning on gigging anymore, so i simply dont need this amp. Hand built amp with a 3 valve preamp and class A/B power. 400 watts @ 4ohms. You can get a great range of tones from this using the eq section and contour. Proper thickness and weight behind each note. The DI out sounds great. This amp doesn't have the extra lights at the front. It has a few scuffs and a couple of cosmetic chips on the case and front from my use that I've pictured, but is in perfect working order. Serviced last year by David Lunt in Stockport. 9.8kg on the bathroom scales I'm the 4th owner. This is an earlier model that was sent as a trial amp to a Basschat member, then sold to @TPJ who sold it to Colleya, who then sold it to me Collection from South Wales preferred so you can try it, or I can ship at cost when I get a suitable box. Heres our very own WoT's review of it: Here is Andy Irvines And here are a fe photos ive borrowed from Colleya's post. It hasnt left my room because of COVID so looks exactly the same. Any questions just ask
  19. Mensinger short scale bass I bought this from Kevdbass off here at the beginning of February (i think), who bought it from a well respected Basschat member- who in turn bought it from the original owner who lives near the factory in Poland and is apparently their biggest private customer (Adrian confirmed this). The bass is a one off custom and in A1 condition. Really eye catching bass, especially with the LEDs turned on. I bought it to have a shorter bass to play as my gigging schedule was pretty heavy. After this COVID sittuation, it isnt looking like we will be gigging again. And id prefer not to have this sitting round doing nothing. Sounds like a full size bass. Might sound stupid but I didnt know what to expect. If you closed your eyes i dont think you could tell the difference. The spec is as follows: Ash body with padouk-wenge thru-neck . 30" scale length with 22-fret wenge board. Neck width 41mm at zero fret. 2 x Delano humbuckers with Delano Sonar 3-band EQ gives it an incredibly versatile sound. LED dot fret-markers. Weighs approx 3.6kg when i weighed it. This bass is immaculate. Not a mark on it that i can see. Price includes delivery but happy to deliver/meet up withing an hour's drive from The Severn Bridge or pack for collection if buyer arranges/pays for delivery.
  20. Just an update. Got myselfa Smoothie. Absolutely love it. Different enough from my 87 to be worthwhile having both too, so I'm very happy.
  21. Our guitarist has told us he is leaving in January 2021. We currently have 12 weddings booked in for 2021 already so the position will be for a fully gigging wedding band. Must have transport and good enough equipment to fit in. I don't care about the brands etc, it just must work and do the job! We play everything. Rock, pop, funk, soul, Motown, disco.....the list goes on, so you would need to be fairly flexible. Our bands ages is between 26 and 36. I don't care how old you are, as long as you can do the job and don't mind being in a band with the rest of us. Think you might be interested? Send me a message and we can talk some more
