  1. I bought Greg’s immaculate GK combo. He has been absolutely brilliant and even sent a video after I asked a few questions! Unfortunately I didn’t get the chance to meet him when I collected the combo from his house and despite offering to pay for it prior to collection, he insisted I took it home to make sure I was happy with it prior to sending the funds! Thanks so much Greg, you are an absolute gentleman.
  2. Dan bought my Fender combo and has been an absolute pleasure to chat with throughout. He paid immediately and took the time to let me know it had arrived safely! Deal with Dan in absolute confidence!
  3. I set mine flat too and only ever touch the Taste control - typically to around 10pm for a little more depth. I’m beginning to have second thoughts about letting it go…….🤦‍♂️
  4. I have some boxes, so could consider posting this…..
  5. I’m selling my Eich BC112 Pro combo which is in excellent condition and comes complete with the genuine Eich padded cover and original shipping box. Here is the description from Eich; The BC112Pro combo is driven by power, punch and drive. With its 500 Watts you will experience every detail of your playing in a totally new and distinct way – completely unaltered but with lots of punch, just the way you like it. The well-balanced four-band tone control suits all musical styles with a perfect sound. The “TASTE” control allows you to emphasise the tonal characteristics of your instrument – everything between a wiry mid-boost, a bold slap and an ultra-fat Reggae or Motown sound. Jacks for FX loop, Tuner Out, Line Out, Line In and a transformer balanced pre/post switchable DI Out with ground lift lets you connect the BC112Pro to the outside world. The BC112Pro is ideal for travelling around the world due to their voltage switch which allows them to be operateded at 230 or 115 volts 50 – 60 Hz. The BC112Pro combo is fitted with our newly designed EICH TE12D-8 12” bass speaker chassis that works in meticulously calibrated enclosures to deliver an impressive bass. For optimum damping of unwanted resonances our housings are made with support bracings and dampened with acoustic foam. The combo features the new 4” CT1 tweeter with a ceramic-magnet system. In a coupled volume the tweeter convinced on one hand with his deep starting frequency, on the other hand, with its very flat frequency response and offers far beyond 10 kHz at astounding sound pressure for silky highs. All combos have an additional Speakon® combo connector for operating an additional cabinet. The internal speaker can be selectively switched off. At the "Rehearsal Section" a headset can be connected at “Phone out” and trough the “AUX-In” a music signal can be fed. The BC112Pro can be tilted in to a monitor position by inserting a stainless steel rod, which is located at the bottom of the combo. 300 watts as a standalone unit, 500 watts when an additional 8Ohm cabinet is connected. At just 14kg it is an easy lift, even for an oldie like me. Collection in person is of course welcomed but as I have the original Eich shipping box, postage within the UK can be arranged at buyer’s cost and risk. I could potentially meet part way for a bit fuel money.
  6. Hi Tony, I would say the tension is very similar to TIs and they are super smooth! David
  7. Owen bought a Fender book from me. Great communications throughout and super fast payment. An absolute pleasure to transact with and therefore another highly recommended BassChatter!
  8. Medium gauge - long scale. Apologies for any confusion. I have amended the title accordingly.
  9. A great Christmas present…..to yourself! In good condition. Price includes InPost locker postage.
  10. TI Jazz flats cut for a Precision. Plenty of life left in them! Price includes InPost locker service.
  11. Cut for a Precision and had had very little use. I found them to be smoother than most other flats. Price includes InPost locker.
  12. Cut for a Precision and hardly used. These are the smoothest flats I have played! Price £35 includes InPost locker.
  13. I think most original Precisons from late 1957 through to mid 1959 came with the gold anodised ‘guards. It is not a full blown ‘58 copy (thankfully in my book!) as that would most likely have a 7.5 inch fingerboard radius and a much fuller/deep neck profile. Thanks for saying it is a great bass!
  14. Dave bought some strings from me. He paid super quick and kindly took the time to let me know they arrived safely. Perfect communications too - highly recommended!
  15. Price drop to £75
  16. I’m selling my 2022 Empire ‘58 Journeyman Precision, finished in Aged White Blonde with a roasted Alder body and one piece roasted Maple neck and fingerboard. The description found on Empire Music’s site is as follows; “The Fender Custom Shop Empire 58 Precision Bass was designed in-house by our resident bassist and Director of Sales, Anthony Pecora. Based off of his very own 58 Custom Shop P with a few nods to the 60’s models, this bass takes the best from both eras into a player-centric package. We’ve worked closely with Custom Shop Masterbuilder Vincent Van Trigt to develop our exclusive Empire 58 Precision Pickup that can only be found in these basses. This pickup offers all of the responsiveness needed to fit any playing style and any genre while never losing the characteristic P-Bass growl and punch. Features like roasted one-piece quartersawn maple necks, roasted bodies, and a 60’s Oval C Profile provide a unique and comfortable playing experience centered around a vintage Fender tone and aesthetic. These basses are ONLY available through Empire Music!” I have been lucky enough to have owned many Custom Shop basses and this is my second favourite of all time (the favourite being the exact same model but in pearl black and a new old stock finish, which suits my bass ocd better and is a keeper!). I wanted a Custom Shop bass that was different from the usual stock but could no way even consider a Masterbuilt one. These Empire exclusives fitted the brief perfectly with a hand-wound pickup designed in connection with a Masterbuilder, a roasted body and a quartersawn roasted neck with a very comfortable 9.5 inch fingerboard radius and tall narrow frets. I understand from Anthony at Empire that they only ordered about 50 of these in each of the NOS, Journeyman and Relic finishes. Being a Journeyman finish it has plenty of checking to the nitro with a selection of nicks and dings but no severe rash of any kind. The neck has lost a bit of its sheen so is not quite as glossy as a new old stock variant and there are just a few bare patches on the fingerboard for an aged look. The tuners and other metal parts are of course aged accordingly. The action is nice and easy, even with some oldish roundwound strings on it. It comes complete with the G&G tweed case, paperwork, tag, wallet, strap and picks plus key for the case. The case is in excellent condition but has one slightly temperamental latch which does close and lock, with a bit of patience! I’m only selling it because I only ever play the NOS version. Postage can be arranged but I would obviously prefer collection so you can play it! Needless to say, coffee and biscuits supplied if you visit!
  17. That’s lovely Chris, I bet it sounds fantastic. Would I like it, yes…..do I have any need for it….sadly, absolutely not…..
