Up for sale or potential trade is this awesome 5 string American deluxe jazz bass, tough decision as I love playing it but wanting to go super lightweight due to function bands long gigs and dodgy back. 2011 18v active model in nicely aged white, it’s generally in good condition there are a few cosmetic battle scars which you can see in the pictures, but this just adds to the mojo in my opinion. I recently changed the pickups to Nordstrand NJ5FS a £200 upgrade which are specifically for this model, which sound great. I would be interested in any trades for lightweight basses sub 8.5lbs either 4 or 5string (this bass is ~10lbs for info) photos to follow

I was hoping someone could help! I’m trying to fit a d tuner to my lakland Darryl jones and have bought a hipshot 1/2 HE6C, but the nut doesn’t seem to fit. Having read online that the hole in the headstock isactually metric and you can buy metric ‘nut/bushing’ which will fit. Has anyone had this issue or know where I can buy one of these?

Just wondered if any one knows how thomman price their Sire Marcus miller basses. An example being the P7 in white being 25% cheaper than exactly the same model in black. Seems to be similar pricing differences across the ranges

Looking to sell or ideally trade for a precision. A nice lightweight bass, great looker and player with a great tone to match. Its the first 5 string i have actually managed to get to grips with and feel comfortable on, but i'm enjoying 4 string too much at the moment and desperate for a precision. Active/passive switch, 2 band EQ, volume and and pickup pan. Gotoh hardware. Generally good condition little bit of tarnishing on the hardware and some chips on body and headstock but nothing major. When new around 2000 it was a high end bass. Muse fans will know that Chris Wolstenholme used the 4 string BC. Bought from Pinball off this parish i have borrowed a few photos (hope you dont mind!), but will take some more when possible. It doesnt have a case just gig bag.
