I always wished I'd bought that Fiesta Red P you were selling years ago @FuNkShUi

I had a PJ built by Mark, and it was great - but there was just something lovely about that bass you had. The neck on it was just sublime, and really nice to play.

 

But I dithered, and missed out. Ah well....

 

Hadn't realised you've stopped gigging Kert? I just want to keep playing live for as long as possible. Hope you're well mate? 😀

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 👍🏼

What kind of thing are you looking for? A specific colour, level of relic’ing or nut width…?? 
 

They’re all fairly unique as Mark builds them to your specific taste so there’s quite a variety. Just a case of hoping the right one comes up. 
 

I have to say that Sherwood Green P looks lovely, I wish my ability to read German was a bit better! 

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?

Thanks both, had a look, neither of those "do it" for me. I appreciate the heads up though

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

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

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.

I have one in South Wales if anyone wants to try before they buy.
Great bass. I love mine

Im struggling to find packaging to send this, so pick up only now

superb cabs - I have the 210 version and it's remarkable - loud, versatile, responsive and controlled.  Works really well with a variety of amps too from valve to class A/B SS.  A significant bargain IMO 

Thanks, if i were still in a band i wouldnt be selling it

Just sold an amp to Jon.
No troubles at all. Cheers mate, and hope you get a chance to gig the amp!

trades?

No, sorry

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

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.

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. 

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

I’ve previously had 80’s - modern Rays, 2 band and 3 band. For my taste, I’d recommend buying one like the HH Special I own now. The others are still great, I just feel this suits what I like better in a bass (ergonomics,  awesome EQ and versatility). 

Looks stunning

Find another late 80's StingRay.

I have been looking. Have two basses to sell first

I’ve never had one but I’m thinking of getting a stingray,  so I’ll be following this with interest 

After getting my '87 stingray three years ago, I've only gigged that bass. You should try one. My preference is the 2 band

Your '87 sounds great, why do you need another one?!

I need two basses as I gig so much, if one goes wrong, I need a spare. Do I need a spare like this? Maybe not. But I'd like to have two nice basses, either of which I would be happy to gig 😊

I have a few basses that i've built up over the years. 
Im down to 3 now.
But realistically I only ever play/gig one.
A Stingray.
So the other two will be sold. 
I will have around a £2k budget, and would like to know what Stingrays you might be looking at if you had similar options.
The Stingray I have is a '87. 
It is the best bass ive had for sitting in the mix with the right amount of clarity AND thickness. 
It just suits me.
So please, im only interested in Stingrays despite there being other options ;)
 

Just completed a complicated trade deal. (3 basses involved, each going to different people)
But no problems at all.
Communication was quick.
And the deal was finished, from start to finish, within the week.
Thanks Chris

Just completed a very easy deal with Andy.
No problems whatsoever. 
Cheers mate
