  1. I'm reluctantly putting my fretless up for grabs. I love playing the bass but because 1. I'm useless on a fretless and 2. It'll never get used in the band it seem stupid to keep it for the occasional home noodling. Its in great shape and has one of the most unusual finishes I've seen, photos dont capture just how lovely it is. Its a blueburst on quilted maple with an ebony board. EMG PJ 18v pups and recently strung with Status half wounds. It sounds superb even in my clumsy hands! I dont have a hard case for shipping so its collection or meet up's (within reasonable distance). Any questions just ask. I'm not looking for any trades thanks. Cheers Paul
  2. [quote name='GreeneKing' post='483557' date='May 9 2009, 08:53 AM']And Paul, as you probably know, is a real nice bloke.[/quote] Its a lie people, don't believe him!
  3. I hate low actions. When I have to I take my basses to a techie for any work thats needed and he always sets them up. To be fair he dose a wonderful job but he sets it up to how HE likes basses. (Very fast). So on return home I undo all his good work!
  4. For sale is my '78 Precision. Overall great condition for its age with just a little 'mojo' but not over the top. S8 serial number and not the heaviest one I've played but its no real light weight. Its a good solid bass with no issues and plays and sounds like a good P should. I find myself using my '73 Precision now as I've got to like its more mellow tone and realistically I cannot afford to have two old Precisions. Now I've run out of hard cases so I wouldn't want to post it but I'm happy to deliver or meet up within reasonable distance. Any questions just ask! Cheers - Paul

  6. [quote name='Rayman' post='482204' date='May 7 2009, 05:35 PM'] .......I might even go old school with a nice old Precision.........[/quote] If it had 4 strings I might take you up on it! Stunning basses.
  7. My old SVT 4 Pro was the same. Needed warming up! Great amp all the same. Bump For a £400 bargain!!

    Will had my SQ Squier off me. Paid in a flash! Many thanks.
  9. The Gallery have one (fretted) that I've got GAS for. Their asking £1200, you'll probably get it for less and it'll have a warranty. The new prices are crazy and the depreciation is frightening.
  10. Bump with new price. £250 + shipping
  11. Oh God why did I look at this thread!
  12. [quote name='BassKS' post='455181' date='Apr 6 2009, 09:54 AM']Great Bass Paul. I thought youd shift them all. At that price youll get many Gear-slut salivary glands going. Best of luck with the sale and Paul is a dude to do business with.[/quote] Cheers! Anyhow - BUMP! With UK delivery covered.

  14. I was going to post this last week but Bassassin was selling his beauty so now his has sold - here goes. Its the same sort of thing really although mines probably had a bit more use going by the dings and dongs on the body. Saying that its still in great overall condition. I've had this bass for around 6 months (from local guitar shop) and Its been gigged a fair bit, it certainly holds its own against the US ones I have but you don't need me to go on about the quality of these old Japanese Fenders. As for issues. The scratchplate is not the original (white) one. Also a previous owner has seen fit to engrave their name on the neck plate. So in light of this I'm asking for £250 + shipping I'm not really up for trades as I could do with the cash. I do have a hard case to ship the bass or, within a reasonable distance meet up. And no paypal thanks! Cheers, Paul
  15. [quote name='peety' post='445955' date='Mar 26 2009, 01:24 PM']This used to be mine and is a great example of lakland quality at a bargain price. Paul is a great guy to deal with too, have a bump on me mate cheers steve[/quote] Cheers Steve!
  16. [quote name='tischbein' post='446843' date='Mar 27 2009, 06:30 AM']What if I send you an empty rockcase and you then send the whole thing to Germany?? PM me if interested. Cheers. The cost is only €25,- each way with GLS and it works in 24-48 hours. So, no hassle to you. The rock case is bullet proof, you just have to tape up the locks and she´s ready to go.[/quote] Thanks for your interest. PM'd
  17. Here's my Lakland DJ4 up for grabs. Lake Placid Blue, DR Peacock Blue strings and in fantastic condition with gig bag. £550 I got this bass off a fellow Bass Chatter last year and I was quite surprised how much I liked it as Jazz basses ain't my bag. I do gig it from time to time but mostly I use my Precisions. I'm only sell it as the work situation has worsen and gigs are being cancelled left, right and centre. I'll miss it as it makes a very nice change from the P-Bass. If you're interested and would like better photos send me a PM and I'll try harder with my photography! Posting is a bit of a problem as I don't have a spare hardcase so it will have to be collected from Telford although I would be prepared to meet up if its within a reasonable distance. Thanks all. Paul
  18. Do you have a cash sale price in mind. (Might help, you never know)?
  19. It really is a thing of beauty. Please dont carve it up.
  20. I dont think your asking too much myself. Its a lovely bass! I've not seen one like that before.
  21. Its a lovely bass and I'd have her back in a flash but works terrible at the moment and things are pretty desperate. Good luck with the sale and I hope it all works out in the States.
  22. Shameless needs to pay rent BUMP!
  23. Bump!
  24. [quote name='4000' post='400578' date='Feb 5 2009, 12:22 AM']Is this the one that weighs 44lbs?[/quote] Nope, heaver than that! Frequency Response 50 - 18k Hz Sensitivity 103 dB Power Rating 400 W RMS Impedance 4 ohms Volume 84 liters Height 51 cm / 20" Width 58 cm / 23" Depth 44 cm / 17" Weight 28 kg / 62 lbs
  25. It really pains me to sell gear like this but due to 'friends' owing me money something has to go. And I only got this of a basschatter a few weeks ago. Anyhow heres the link from the original sale. [url="http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=31164"]http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=31164[/url] £200 please but it will have to be collected from Telford or I could meet up if its not too far. Cheers, Paul
