[b]Squier Vintage Modified Precision Bass 5-string – Very good condition - NOW SOLD ELSEWHERE THANKS[/b] In 'standard' form the market seem to be at around £220 for these basses. This one has around £160 worth of upgrades so I'm looking for £300. I will consider reasonable offers of course. For sale is my Squier VM Precision 5-string bass. The serial number is ICS16117439 indicating a bass from the Cort factory in Indonesia made in 2016. These basses get a lot of love on here and this one is surplus to requirements for me and is just not getting played enough anymore This bass represents great value for money in that it is an inexpensive way to get a decent quality 5-string bass. These basses have an Agathis body and a one-piece maple neck. The finish is a very classy 3-Tone Sun Burst. I have made some well chose upgrades to the bass as follows: • A custom black/white/black pickguard made in the USA (original tort pickguard will be included • Seymour Duncan SPB-3 Quarter Pounder pickup (the original is currently on loan to Barefaced but will be included and forwarded on when I get it back) • Kiogon electronics including a Switchcraft jack socket and quality pots • Fender padded gig bag The bass is in excellent condition and has been played mostly at home and rehearsal, with only a few gigs to its credit. If you have any questions at all, or require additional pictures of any details please ask away and I give as comprehensive an answer as I am able. Collection is preferred. Alternatively I would be happy to arrange to meet up for a modest contribution to fuel costs. If that is all to tricky I would be happy to pack the bass up very well (I have good quality boxes) and for you to arrange a courier. Thanks for looking.

Worked for me, I just searched for headless bass without the additional gubbins. -
I played the violin to a pretty decent standard when I was younger (with dots), however didn't have too many issues leaning stuff to play without them when I picked up the bass. Just takes a bit of time and maybe a few simple tunes to start with.
-
I didn't start until I was 46 so no issues at all.

Welcome indeed, there are a few Lancastrians on here.

Adrian recently purchased some pickups from me. Very smooth transaction, PMs a-plenty, all good. Top banana, deal in complete confidence.

[quote name='anzoid' timestamp='1499378869' post='3331238'] Done. And don't worry Froggy... GAS can't be cured, only suppressed [/quote] When I flashed past this post on the way down to the reply box I thought it said GAS could only be cured by suppositories That would be a concern. Done by the way. Why the Q on kids living at home?

[quote name='stingrayPete1977' timestamp='1499197439' post='3329924'] Never heard of him. [/quote] [quote name='Lozz196' timestamp='1499206129' post='3330020'] Same here. I don`t really go a bundle on sig instruments, that said I`ve had Fender Mike Dirnt, Duff McKagan & Dee Dee Ramone Sig basses - still got the Dee Dee. Probably bought them more for the reviews than for sounding like the artist though, whatever bass I have I set it with my sound, not anyone elses. The Dee Dee is a fantastic Precision though, it`s surplus to requirements so I`m offloading - buyer lined up already - but it really is a great bass, the neck is chunk-tastic.

I think the optimum for me would be V/V/T with a kill switch. However if you have the noiseless p/ups then V/T/4-way switch giving neck only/both parallel/both series/bridge only options works well for four instant tone changes. Personally not a fan of the stacked knob J bass setup. YMMV of course

Hi all For sale is my Sterling By Music Man SB14 bass. This is one of around 1,000 basses made in this colour and dates to 2010 (not 2011 as I had previously written - made in Indonesia). The bass is in excellent overall condition with a couple of light scratches on the back which I will see if I can polish out. A couple of things to mention:[list] [*]When I got the bass the previous owner had clearly taken a file to the nut in a none too subtle way so the bass now sports a buffalo horn nut (like bone but black - to keep the overall blackness level) [*]The pickguard had some scratches too so the bass now has a new custom p/g in the same B/W/B scheme as the original one (original one included) [*]I have just had a pro setup done on the bass including fret leveling and polishing and a brand new set of D'Addario EXL170BT strings. [/list] The necks on these are pretty slim and quite jazz-like. This particular bass weighs in at bang on 9lbs by my scales so quite light for the breed. The body is basswood, and the maple neck has some birdseye content too. The rosewood board has been cleaned and oiled as well. The electronics are 3EQ plus pickup coil switching to give three options: Parallel for the classic Stingray sound; single coil with phantom coil - hum cancelling; and series options. The bass comes with an SBMM gig bag; probably the best gig bag I've come across with nice soft and thick padding. These SBMM basses get a lot of love on t'interweb. Thanks for looking.
