  1. Just had a go at getting a shot on the scales and in the vertical orientation it varied between 6.2 and 6.4lb... Laying it flat on the scale resulted in a steady 6.2lb.. Insanity.
  2. Sure thing, here it is with a regulation tin of beans for scale.
  3. Now £250 1986 Ibanez Roadstar RB760 made in Japan up for grabs. This is a lovely instrument that has many cross over features from the Musician I sold recently. It has the same wonderful neck profile, body shape, hardware and high build quality, but with a bolt on neck and passive PJ pickups. It also has the coolest strap locks ever created 👌 It's in very good condition for a bass of this vintage but does have some signs of use as you'd expect, and a bit of a ding on the bottom. It plays and sounds great. I was half tempted to update the electronics to something modern but as with the Musician, there's really no need! Note: The bass is 34" scale and the finish is "Gun Metallic". It's very light at around 3.7kg. Collection from Margate or I can box it up if you'd like to arrange a courier.
  4. Pedant alert - that's his Joseph Kaye Faith & Grace bass. He'd sound awesome on anything. Total legend.
  5. Thanks mate, the gear merry-go-round never stops 😁
  6. A lovely 80's made in Japan Ibanez Musican bass complete with a Hiscox flight case. This bass is extremely well built and features neck through construction, 24 fret ebony board, lightweight hardware and active electronics. It plays wonderfully with a recent set of Ernie Ball flats and a med/low action. It sounds great! Bad points are it has some superficial lacquer checking/dings/missing finish etc but nothing out of the ordinary for an instrument that has been used for 40 years or so! Also the bridge pickup seems to have a lower output than the neck for some reason. With the pickup pan pot balanced or favouring the neck you'd never notice it, but mentioning for clarity. I have considered modernising the pickups/preamp but IMO it sounds great as it is. A wonderful instrument.
  7. Just realised I didn't label this as being a Fender! I think I might have a plan for this, so withdrawing if it doesn't go this weekend 👍
  8. Now £1395! Spector Euro RST in the wonderful Sienna finish up for grabs. This bass manages to be both unbelievably light (6.2lb!) while still feeling extremely solid and 'proper'. I've had light basses that feel like toys, this is not one of them! It features Aguilar pickups and an Aguilar preamp for some serious punch. Being Aguilar they also produce a nice vintage tone when required, especially with the neck pickup favoured and a slight treble cut. Both pickups on full with some bass and treble boost will send you to slap heaven. It has been gigged so is showing small signs of use, but it is in fantastic condition overall. It comes in a nice Spector gig bag. Collection from Margate or I can box it up securely if you'd like to arrange collection.
  9. Pics of the case, posh strap and Schaller straplocks that are included in the sale. Crazy value at £395!
  10. Right, I've had a sort out this morning and I can include a flight case, schaller strap locks and a nice leather Levy's strap if anyone fancies this? I'll add some pics later 👍
  11. Possibly, and If he does he'll definitely be thinking he should get a real Spector instead.
  12. Thanks 👍 Must be a glitch in the multiverse.
  13. Errrr, me too. The Warwick photos are nothing to do with me! What's going on here, @ped?
  14. Thanks. It does offer amazing value for money! I was playing along to Erykah Badu's live album with last night and it sounds fantastic.
  15. Hopefully it'll go to a good home in one piece, unless someone else wants just the neck?
