Now sold, please freeze. Hi folks, I have for sale a bridge off a CIJ Fender '62 RI fretless jazz bass. Compared to a '62 RI one that I bought off the internet (normal Fender parts one) I feel the quality of this one is better, especially the adjustment screws.

I'd like £15 posted for this please, a little less for collection from Huddersfield, West Yorkshire. Any questions just PM me please, Cheers.

Hi folks, I have here for sale a '62 style Fender stacked pot control plate, I've said it's nearly loaded as the CTS pots didn't come with any nuts and washers to secure them to the genuine RI Fender control plate, you'd have to get those ! I made this up using decent cloth covered wire, orange capacitors and a switchcraft jack socket. It hasn't been installed on a bass, just been lying about for a while!! The knobs are from All Parts and I did notice that the knurling isn't quite as deep as on an original Fender set, moot point tbh!! They also don't come with the indexing springs underneath the tone pots, I've never found this an issue in use. The pots have a very similar feel to them, however the bridge control for the volume shows a small amount more resistance. It also comes with the control plate screws.

Now SOLD please freeze post thanks. Hi folks, I've for sale here a loaded Fender '62 RI stacked pot control plate, I bought it off here a while back and it is now surplus to requirements. There are no indexing spring washer underneath the tone controls, however I've never found that to be an issue. The feel of the volume pots is fairly similar, the neck pickup control is a little bit stiffer, but only by a smidgen. This pot also has a very little bit of rotational play on the pot body, I only noticed this when I took it off. It is not affected in use and is nowt to worry about. The chrome control plate has a couple of faint scratch marks near the each control knobs due to normal use. It also comes with the control plate screws.

Hi folks, I've a set of Dimarzio Ultra Jazz pickups for sale ([url="http://www.dimarzio.com/pickups/bass/standard-bass/ultra-jazz-pair"]http://www.dimarzio....ultra-jazz-pair[/url]). I bought these off the forum a while back and have never fitted them myself. They have been used by a previous owner and have a few signs of use on the covers. The wires also have signs of use on them but have plenty of length still left. They come in a box (a Model J box, but who cares!) and a set of used chrome pick up screws.

Hi folks, I've two Hipshot BT 3 Drop D tuners for sale ([url="http://store.hipshotproducts.com/cart.php?m=product_detail&p=60"]http://store.hipshot...uct_detail&p=60[/url]). [url="http://s1286.photobucket.com/user/jimbobothy/media/walkandbassbitsfs029_zpsb0472392.jpg.html"][/url] [url="http://s1286.photobucket.com/user/jimbobothy/media/walkandbassbitsfs030_zps8e66194f.jpg.html"][/url] Both are fully functional and come boxed with the ferrule and screws. When I got them (at the same time, new of the internet) I noticed I had to reduce the thickness of the plastic spacer in the assembly to get the whole thing to stop binding. This only happened when the main screw holding the gear wheel onto the string post was tightened up. I did however compare the dimensions with another Drop D tuner I have and one dimension was about 0.4 mm out (err, for those of you who are interested it was the depth of the shoulder on the string post, a smidgen too shallow), hence the binding when tightened. The plastic washer was thus reduced by 0.6mm to free it all up nicely!! There is still enough clearance between the upper and lower plates for them to work as normal. However, I have priced them accordingly and I'd like £25 + post for each of them, or you're welcome to collect from Huddersfield, West Yorkshire. Any questions just PM me please, Cheers.

Hi folks, I've moved back to 5ers for now so all 4 string related bits and bobs are now surplus. I have for sale a set of Hipshot HB2 tuners (see here, [url="http://store.hipshotproducts.com/cart.php?m=product_detail&p=96"]http://store.hipshot...uct_detail&p=96[/url],), they came from the BC roundabout and are in good condition. They are not new as I believe a previous owner had them on a bass, however they have stayed in their box for the duration I have owned them. The ferrules and screws are all included. The tension is adjustable and they save a fair bit of weight over standard Fender tuners.

+1, the old wooden necked status basses are the most comfy (IMHO) to play , however I'm trying to get down to one bass for a bit lol!

...and PM'd back

Now SOLD, please lock post thanks

Please remove, now traded thanks.

Hi there, if I did trade it would be face to face only, sorry. I also have a possible deal tomorrow so this bass is now on hold pending, cheers.

Hey cheers Chris but I'm only asking what it's cost me, the neck is as far as I know, genuine 70s. It's got a Fender sticker on the heel and some other marks, but no numbers that I can remember. I got a deal on it so I'll pass it on, spirit of BC and all that. If I were into making some brass I'd sell it another way. However thanks for mentioning it, and yes, I'd never make a good business man!!

Cheers guys for the comments, but sorry no trades on this one thanks.

Now traded thanks. Hi folks, I have for sale my Fender Nate Mendel signature P bass, I bought it off here a few months ago. These are the real deal in affordable P bass goodness , I've just decided to stay with 5 strings again! Please see here for more details, [url="http://www.fender.com/en-GB/basses/precision-bass/nate-mendel-p-bass-rosewood-fingerboard-candy-apple-red/"]http://www.fender.co...andy-apple-red/[/url] This one has had it's neck pocket cleaned out of overspray etc to help with getting a good neck alignment. I also had to adjust one of the saddle grooves very slightly but after fettling it is nearly spot on. The bass plays really nicely, the neck is a nice balance between a jazz and more traditional p bass sized neck. The roadworn look hides any extra knocks that basses pick up along the way. I'll also include a set of strap end pins (it comes with the schaller pins on the bass from Fender, but not the bits for the strap!!) and a leather strap. I also have the extra 'FF' neck plate and case candy. As far as I'm aware it was bought new in February this year. The only issue, that is from the factory, is one of the screw holes under the pickguard (bottom one between the tone knob and input jack) breaks out of the main body into the control cavity. I only noticed when this when I took the pickguard off to have a nosey!! However saying that it still holds as good as the other ones and is not stripped at all. I'd just like to know this if I bought the bass!! Please see the pics below (it's the red one!!)

Now SOLD please freeze. Hi folks, I have for sale my bitsa fretless P bass. The body is a mid 80's copy, not sure what wood it is, maybe mahogany, walnut, who knows, it is however very hard!! The pickguard is a repro one, the bridge is a badass II, pots are new CTS with solid shafts, knobs again RI 70's ones. The pickup is a sort of copy of a Dimarzio one, it has adjustable pole pieces but I'm not sure the wiring is the same. The best part is the neck, it's a late 70's, maybe early 80's (1978 - 1981, see [url="http://www.fender.com/en-GB/support/articles/u-s-instruments-product-dating/"]http://www.fender.co...product-dating/[/url]). The board is unlined rosewood and the tuners are original as far as I know. They guy who I bought it off said he bought it as a complete bass from a shop called Machine Head in Essex in the mid 80's. The strings are Fender flats (40 - 100). It has schaller pins on, depending on how many of my basses sell I might have a spare set of strap bits too, will have to wait and see. The neck is nice and straight and the truss rod works as it should. The issues worth mentioning are firstly: The bridge that came with it was a boat anchor made out of lead, so I changed it for a Badass II. The holes that the original bridge cam with were non Fender standard and the Badass II only just covers these, so you can't really used a normal type bridge unless you don't care about see other screw holes! The neck screw holes are oversized (I didn't do it gov!) and a bit 'off' the normal hole position, this resulted in whoever put it together to plug the original neck screw holes and re-drill some new ones to match the body holes. It all works fine, just a bit odd really. The neck has also been shimmed to get the action low, if not the action would be high. I had to fettle one of the saddle grooves on the badass II to get things in-line, all good now Please see the pics below [url="http://s1286.photobucket.com/user/jimbobothy/media/bitsandbass062_zps3a82fe2a.jpg.html"][/url] [url="http://s1286.photobucket.com/user/jimbobothy/media/bitsandbass061_zps81cc5c04.jpg.html"][/url] [url="http://s1286.photobucket.com/user/jimbobothy/media/bitsandbass060_zps39f0dc1b.jpg.html"][/url] [url="http://s1286.photobucket.com/user/jimbobothy/media/bitsandbass059_zpsb943bc54.jpg.html"][/url] [url="http://s1286.photobucket.com/user/jimbobothy/media/bitsandbass058_zps9ae5e12f.jpg.html"][/url] [url="http://s1286.photobucket.com/user/jimbobothy/media/bitsandbass057_zps5836ffb4.jpg.html"][/url] [url="http://s1286.photobucket.com/user/jimbobothy/media/bitsandbass055_zpse3144f6c.jpg.html"][/url] [url="http://s1286.photobucket.com/user/jimbobothy/media/bitsandbass054_zps6690cfad.jpg.html"][/url] [url="http://s1286.photobucket.com/user/jimbobothy/media/bitsandbass052_zps8155f4c5.jpg.html"][/url] [url="http://s1286.photobucket.com/user/jimbobothy/media/bitsandbass051_zpsbc3f4d2f.jpg.html"][/url] [url="http://s1286.photobucket.com/user/jimbobothy/media/bitsandbass050_zps8e0f4afe.jpg.html"][/url] I'm after £295 collected from Huddersfield, West Yorkshire for this as I want any buyer see it in the flesh, play it and be happy!!
