Bumpy bump.

Bumpy! Thought I would at least get silly offers or just people passing by. This thread is lonely and needs hugs

Bump.

Mike Tobias had a hand in selecting the pre-amp for this one, so you can't say better - the man himself getting on the line to Bass Bunny to tell him what he thought was the best The B is very tight, to the point where I thought of joining in that Dingwalls-do-it-better debate - as I've not seen any better than this. The zero-fret keeps it tight, and I've had another set of Elixirs on it since picking it up. The weight is a good point, as it's a very light base by my standards. I swapped out my previous five for this when I damaged my back, and the primary attraction was the blessed relief of finally having a lightweight five! I've had some nibbles, but I suspect many people are waiting for other items to sell to free up cash.

I do think these are very cute

Please don't stand on ceremony if I've cocked the price up, or something.

Let's have an evening bump.

Thus begins the cycle of bumps

Would you consider a Carl Thompson pickled bass in trade?

What's the scale, Flip?

Whilst this is long gone, the Gold on the P-bass works oh-so-well...

Thanks Ghosts - it is, indeed, a lot of bass! I think trade is the prefered option. Just waiting to see what people!

Quick edit: am more than happy to post! All, this is my Jackson KBX Kelly Explorer: I'm chasing the full specifications, but this is the KBX1, I understand - with Duncan Designed® humbuckers and the Duncan Designed® BEQ3 Preamp for Master Volume/Blend/Bass/Middle/ Treble and Slap Switch (Mid Scoop/High Frequency Boost). I'll confirm neck scale tonight, but it's a long neck - with things kept tight by through-body stringing. The neck, for those unfamiliar with Jacksons/Charvels, is very Jazz-like - it's slim and fast, with good access. There is no seperate battery cavity - instead, it sits in a recess alongside the electronics. It does suffer from some neck dive, additionally, but this is easily compensated for. This will go with it's fitted hardcase, which is in great nick - and, frankly, is worth it's weight in gold. I doubt you'll find many hardcases for these. I'll try and dig out the full manufacturers specs after work. I'll get some additional shots of the bass and case. Asking £350 cash or equivalent trades - still after a decent P or Jazz, 4-string, with cash either way. BC Riches always considered, as my signature would suggest However, the shape will be marmite, so I'm a little more open to offers. The case itself is worth it's weight in gold, as you're unlikely to find another fitted case for this shape. However, I can break the price up and give you one for just the bass itself. Based in North Yorks. Collection prefered, and I do a mean cuppa for those wishing to try

Quick edit: am more than happy to post! Thinking back to the parody sales threads, I'm trying to avoid the old cliches To put it simply, I'm not playing this one. It's a very fine bass, and frankly wasted on a luddite like myself. I'm going to borrow some old pics, whilst I arrange for some new ones - but this is it, my MTD Kingston Heir 5: Manufacturer specs can be found here: [url="http://www.mtdkingston.com/basses/heir.htm"]http://www.mtdkingston.com/basses/heir.htm[/url] Over and above those specs, previous owner BassBunny had a Bartolini pre-amp installed. It's the Bart 5.4 AP pre-amp and was set-up and installed by Steve Robinson of Sale, who also installed a flip-up battery cover at the rear. Quoting directly from BassBunny: "Mike Tobias recommended the pre and it is amazing. Usual controls, Vol/Bal/Bass/Middle/Treble and a push/pull on the Volume for Active/Passive. It also has a 3 position toggle that changes the "Mid" frequencies." There is a small ding in the headstock, and some scratching to the lower rear (matron), but otherwise in fine condition. It's a light bass, which was my main attraction. I was playing 5-string and had just slipped my disc, so finding this came as a great relief - literally! It's got great access to the fretboard, which meant fewer contortions whilst playing - in fact, the neck tapers as you move up the notes, which is a blessing; whilst the 35" scale and zero-fret help keep things tight and tidy. Asking for £350 cash outright - trades are more flexible. I'd like a decent Precision or Jazz ideally, 4-string prefered (if it's another five, I'd be looking for a Jazz). However, I am willing to listen to trade offers - including cash either way, if the values don't balance neatly. I'll grab some additional pictures this evening, but am happy to take requests Based in North Yorks. Collection prefered, and I do a mean cuppa for those wishing to try
