    I got this recently from someone on here and it is by far and away the best 4 string jazz bass I’ve ever played - an absolutely wonderful instrument. This is a 2020 US Fender Jazz 60th Anniversary (of the Fender Jazz Bass - not Fender itself), it’s in a lovely Arctic Pearl, with stacked knob controls, Pure Vintage ‘62 pickups, rosewood board with binding and coloured headstock. Absolutely sublime neck, it just plays wonderfully - currently strung with D’addario half rounds but I can put some pretty new roundwounds on it that I had on before if preferred. Comes in Vintage-Style Deluxe Hardshell case with Embroidered 60th Anniversary Logo & all case candy, certificate of authenticity, pickup covers etc I am gutted that I’m having to let it go, but I’m only gigging 5’s really and bought a 5st Mayones Jabba recently which wasn’t cheap & I can’t justify having this much tied up in it at the moment Condition is excellent - there is 1 very small chip near the screw holes for the bridge pickup cover (pictured) but other than that it’s in great condition. All specs below 👇 Bassbros has one in stock now for £1,499 Case is blemish free Covers and tags, COA Lovely Artic. pearl, in certain light it shows a faint yellow in some pics Year – 2020 Colour – Arctic Pearl Body Finish – Gloss Body Wood – Alder Neck Finish – Gloss Neck Wood – Maple Fretboard – Rosewood Frets – 20 Scale Length – 34″ Weight – 4.3 Kg's Electronics – Passive Pickups – Fender Pure Vintage ’62 Single-Coil Jazz Bass Gigbag/Hardcase – Fender branded 60th Anniversary hardcase Price is £1200 - shipping at your cost can be arranged, will be well packaged and I’ve got boxes I might trade for a bass up to £700 in value plus the rest in cash my way, but I'm mainly selling as I need the money unfortunately so it’d need to be good deal EDIT: I would be particularly interested in taking a Yamaha BB735a in PX/Trade, other than that just try me with what you’ve got, also may be interested in decent preamp/DI/pedals along the lines of Sushi Box/Audio Kitchen etc

    What’s the weight of this please?

    I’ve dealt with him before and the idea that he’s just a benevolent collector that sells his basses is complete bollocks. He’s a sound enough guy and the 1 deal I did with him was a good deal for me, but generally he’s way overpriced, but he’s 1000% a trader. Case in point - a couple of weeks ago I messaged a guy on Facebook about a BB735a that was up for £450, and he said he was sorry but he’d just agreed a sale. Within 12 hours the same bass (distinguishing marks and strings showed it was definitely the same bass) was for sale by Tony for £675, so yeh I was a bit pissed off about that one, but if you’re not fast you’re last I guess, however I don’t like the duplicity of telling people you’re a collector and denying you’re a trader when it’s obviously total BS. You just end up wondering why, what’s he hiding it for? I’d still deal with him if he had something I wanted etc, it is what it is but it’s better people are aware who they are dealing with IMO Edit: Sorry it was a BB734a not a 5, but same rules apply and all that 😆

    You’re absolutely right - this video 👇 from Vertex Effects where they interviewed him about all his most famous basslines he breaks it down and talks all about it (21 min mark he starts talking about working with Phil Collins) played on his Ken Smith. The video is well worth watching from start to finish actually

    Great bassline that! @greyparrot if you use the Karaoke instrumentals on a track like this when doing a bass cover on YouTube do you avoid the copyright claim/potential copyright strike? I’ve uploaded a few covers on various accounts over the years but I pulled them all down, and they would almost always get a copyright ‘claim’ and occasionally it’d get pulled down or you’d get a strike for it. Is this a way to do it and be able to keep them up & not have to share ad revenue and all the other stuff that comes with a copyright claim? Cheers

    Is this for sale then.? 🤔

    Just done a deal with Ben for an Aguilar Octamizer pedal - absolute pleasure to deal with, highly recommended

    Sounds very Royal Mail 🤦‍♂️

    Apart from having the finest first name a bass player can have, Paddy is also a great seller. I bought his Nordstrand Starlifter preamp/DI & NUX pedalboard which are both great bits of kit, and arrived with me well packaged the following day after making payment - couldn’t have asked for a better transaction tbf, you can definitely deal with him in full confidence
  10. Paddy777
    Better to send trade offers etc via DM 👍
  11. Paddy777
    Reduced to £695 - very cheap for a bass of this quality!
  12. Paddy777
    Edit - was beaten to it 🤣

    I’ve always loved the natural finish 🤩 in fact that in a 5 would be my ideal next bass! You’ve got a collection that rivals @dub_junkie haha - I absolutely love Lakland’s - such good players! How you getting on with the 55-01? I wouldn’t mind another one of those too haha - I had some great plans for modding it but something I wanted to came up so it all went out the window and I had to flog it 🤦‍♂️ Hope you’re enjoying it, that’s a great collection!

    Pearl white 2013 Lakland Skyline Darryl Jones DJ4 Jazz Bass with hipshot D-tuner/matching headstock In great condition - couple of little dings but nothing massive, it’s generally in really good nick. Pearl white colour is really nice, and the quality of these Skylines is fantastic as they go to Lakland in Chicago to get setup & QC’d (and Plek’d but I don’t know what year that started so I don’t want to promise this has been done if it hasn’t!) UK Postage is available +£30 and I’ll include a semi hard case for sending and it’ll be boxed & solidly packed *Reduced - £695 cash sale price* Poss Trade (trade value is a bit higher tbf - can put cash in for the right bass/deal) Interested in 5st Jazz/PJ/$$,MM-J possibly interested in 4st especially P Bass's but just try me with what you’ve got, also after a decent tube preamp/REDDI/sushibox Grand Slampegg etc or would take a Caveman BP1/BP1C etc - basically it’s not hard to tempt me into a deal with some shiny new gear 😁 Pics 👇

    Aguilar Octamizer octave pedal - works great, duo lock on the bottom, works with standard 9v pedalboard power supply *Reduced £80* inc UK delivery or trade - can add cash if needs be. After some Lindy Fralin JB pickups, Aguilar Filter Twin (or other Env. filter) Flatwounds for a 5st, but quite happy to listen to anything - worst I can say is no thanks!
  16. Paddy777
    Dm’d you @Sean
  17. Paddy777
    That’s a beautiful bass! The Stingray Specials are really something else 🤩
  18. Paddy777
    I have found Parcelforce stuff often resets overnight - I have had some odd stuff come up on tracking before at night then it changes by the following morning/morning of delivery. I’d be down there too tbf - no point waiting about to be disappointed Thursday

    This is an absolute thing of beauty 🤩 That ebony board with the blocks is unreal!

    If the pending DCX Bass sale falls through DM me - cheers =]

    Thanks for that! @Quatschmacher Yeh I’ve been wondering whether to order one, at that price I can spend an extra £100 and buy a REDDI from a guy local to me, or even run something like the Fliptop into a Small Trees, then I could swap the preamp out for diff flavours etc - it’s whether or not the Grand Slampegg is that good compared to the other offerings
  22. Paddy777
    I fancy a Plerthora X1 - I’ve got a TC BH800 head with two toneprint slots and there’s some very good FX you can use, stuff like phaser, flanger and all the modulation stuff that I don’t necessarily use enough to want to buy a separate pedal for but it’s very useful to have on tap as needed.
  23. Paddy777
    Oh my word that is beautiful 😍
  24. Paddy777
    I’ve been saying this for ages - they’re a different class to a most, they’re IMO like the Quad Cortex captures really, certainly the IK ones are, the user generated captures are a mixed bag but it’s good they’re there as there is some really excellent ones
  25. Paddy777
    The Tonex is something that captures amps & cabs whereas the Zoom 60b is a pretty low end modeler - they’re not even in the same conversation tbf
