Sent you a PM Ziggydolphinboy

I’m in Norfolk Mundford- near Thetford IP26 5DS. What sort of trade options were you thinking of?

Yep, I think you said that when I put a post up here last year when I bought it. It is their 6 string neck, used for a wide 5 spacing I believe- 17mm x 6 = 102 , and 21 x 5 = 105. That’s how my logic works I’m not sure how cost would pan out, as you’d have to change the nut, bridge and pick ups too

Modulus QW5. 5 string Modulus Quantum for sale. This is the wide string spacing model. Regular Quantum 5’s are 17mm. They then offered two wide spacings- 19mm and 21/21.5 mm. This is the 21mm one, and I suspect that there can’t be that many that were made. It’s basically their 6 string neck, with 5 strings. It is a a bit neck heavy, but a wide strap sorts this completely. Bought it off a fellow BC’er last year on here, and I think that he had it from new. 35” scale. 24 fret with 21mm spacing at the bridge. John East pre-amp. Vol/blend stack , bass/treble stack (pull for bright) , mid/freq stack. Then there’s a passive tone control that pulls for ‘passive’ mode - this works in either passive or active mode. The two knobs nearest the pick ups are 4 way coil taps. Furthest back is rear single coil, next forward is front single coil. Third click is parallel, and last is series. There’s also an LED that I presume is a low battery marker- not sure though. Norstrand pick ups. Custom ordered by previous owner- had to make specifically for the string spacing. I play this a lot at home, and I think maybe one gig last year, but can’t be sure. Idea was to have a passive and active bass, and use accordingly. But I find I’m using the passive 5 for all my gigs, and the Function band deps- just covers everything really. So this Modulus isn’t getting used much, even though it’s probably one of the best basses that I’ve ever owned. Comes with a hard case. Just found out that my scales are knackered, so I’ll have to update the ad with the weight. Bought for £2500, and I did a 5 hour round trip to pick up. So looking to sell for the base price I paid for it. Shipping this is a no brainier no for me, but I can travel to meet up within reason. Unsure about trades, but hit me with what you’ve got. Not in a hurry to sell this, and if it doesn’t sell, then I’ll just keep it, as it’s lovely really. Thanks for looking. Paul

Six strings have never been on my radar, but that is absolutely lush

Only the second 5 string Sterling I’ve seen for sale up on here. Probably a combination of rarity, and those that have them, tend to keep them. Is the neck width much slimmer than a standard Ray 5?

I’ve got it boxed up for someone else at the moment. Waiting for confirmation of arrival then I’ll mark as sold. If there’s any hiccups, I’ll let you know

Immaculate Korg G5 bass synth pedal. Still got the Turnkey receipt inside from ‘97. Used on and off by me, but just for the odd bit here and there- never got into saving any patches. A really nice d school synth pedal, that’s sort of become a bit of a classic. This is part of the final bits of unused gear, and been under the stairs for 10 years or so. Price is £110 , including signed for delivery in the UK.

Bump , for some fuzz/phase action . Now down to £100 posted in UK

I’ve had this bass for under 2 years, as a 50th present to myself, but I’m just not using it. Ordered from Stefan to my specs, but the pickup arrangement wasn’t quite what I specified. Sold all my gear to buy a few bits I really fancied, but this hasn’t been used, since I got the Dingwall and Modulus- they just suit what I do better. 34” scale Measuring 18mm at bridge Measuring 50mm at zero fret 3 band Noll 9v pre-amp. Volume (pull passive), bass, treble, mid/freq stacked, blend, and toggle for LED’s on top edge. I was told that it could do with a set up- fret dress primarily. The truss rod couldn’t be accessed, so the end cap was drilled larger to enable this, and the cap end isn’t quite flush. Those few things annoyed me, as this is how it was sent to me. I’m in no hurry to sell, so if it doesn’t get the price, I’ll just stick it back in the cupboard, and get this sorted as and when, then probably start gigging with it on the function band deps. There’s a slight dark discolouration on the back of the neck (shown in the pictures)- could rub out. My scales are bust, but I think it’s sub 9lbs Probably played by me no more than 20 times at rehearsals. The sound is awesome, but I prefer my other two basses. Selling, as I fancy an 5P style bass I’ve seen, or maybe the graphite Stingray 5. It cost me over 2K, but was less than 2.5K - I can’t remember the exact cost. After £1350 for it- as new apart from the little bits of stuff to do to it. I’m not geared up for shipping this , so it’ll be a meet up jobbie I reckon. Thanks for looking, and if you want anymore details, then drop me a message. Thanks. Paul

No idea why this hasn’t sold. All the SR5’s have sold- though a couple took a couple of months. Really fancy another graphite Stingray- just need to get around to putting a bass up for sale. GLWTS

You’re the only local bloke who’s gone through more bass rigs than me, Roy. For a smallish rig, that’s a killer

Yes, that was mine that you tried. I still use it. I paid a grand for mine new, from the old Wapping Bass Centre. It’s outlived the other amps I’ve owned, as it’s such a lovely little amp.

Only the Burninator left . Now I'm able to say , that this pedal is as cheap as a tank of petrol . Price includes signed for post .
