Bloody hell, how did I miss this?? I've been on the lookout for (a light) one of these for a while now....

Grooved and an ever-so-small amount of corrosion, hence[b] £40 posted[/b].

Bought a pair of these from Moos3h a few weeks ago but they're so good that just one in combination with my Compact is way OTT. Also, am way over what I can physically store at my house! The cabinet is a Peavey Eurosys III PA cab and is surprisingly light! Not to mention has great projection. It has the tweeter in place but no crossover. The driver is Fane Sovereign 15-600LF. It's more than capable of reproducing all the really useful frequencies most bass players need without the aid of a tweeter. [url="http://www.faneinternational.com/prod_details.aspx?pid=197"]http://www.faneinternational.com/prod_details.aspx?pid=197[/url] Moos3h was selling one of these for [b]£60 collected[/b] but make me a very close offer and we'll see... Apologies to Moos3h for pinching his photos. Original thread [url="http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=98659"]here[/url].

[quote name='Wil' post='946994' date='Sep 6 2010, 10:51 AM']Would you split? I might be interested in the P pup.[/quote] Maybe.... Depends if there's interest in the NJ4 or lack of interest in the complete set. If so, would look at selling [b]each for £47[/b], to cover for increased postage cost.

Although I'm not in a hurry to sell this, recently sold 80's Arias on here seem to have gone at around the £180 - £200 mark. I will re-price this to £180 and see what happens.

This came pre-installed in a hand-made bass from the US I bought a year and a half ago (the TBC in my avatar). I contacted Nordstrand to make sure they were the real deal and they confirmed they were. However, They did not say whether the J pickup was the NJ4SV or NJ4SE. I've made a guess that it's the NPJ4SE as that's what's being offered as a set on eBay. The bass manufacturer put extra shielding on the bottom of the P pickup, in the form of copper tape. As for what it sounds like, well I'll go for 'modern' as it doesn't sound much like the pickup in my '62 re-issue P bass or the Wilkinson P I replaced it with. It's quite powerful and 'dark' sounding and I just prefer the more traditional P sound. Took out the J pickup just to sell as a set, although I actually really like it; it has the characteristics described on the Nordstand site for the NJ4SE: "The natural character of this design is to have a more pronounced lower midrange, and a slightly muted high end. This makes them exceptionally suited to fingerstyle players who are going for a solo bridge pickup sound with good 'bark' and 'heft'." Not sure about price: they seem to be on sale on eBay for £155 (pre import duty) and these are in great condition, so how about [b]£80 inc postage[/b] to mainland UK. Edit: to say which bass the pickups came in.

Wow, that's a great price! Used to have a soundgear and it was very light and comfortable to play. Mine had the more traditional P pickup configuration. I imagine being that way around, the E and A strings sound not quite as deep/round/whatever but tighter?

[quote name='Moos3h' post='936201' date='Aug 25 2010, 05:59 PM']Cabs back up for sale with healthy price drop due to ebay timewaster![/quote] Mine now. Ridiculously good cabs for the money. I now have a modular 3x15" rig: I'm just so damnend old-school it hurts (mainly the audience).

Gosh, that's lovely. Will anyone get the hump if I say it looks like a warwick? If it had frets, would seriously think about parting with cash. Anyone got a fretted neck for this?

[quote name='Moos3h' post='935632' date='Aug 25 2010, 08:50 AM']Thanks - hoping it can find a good home [/quote] Looks good, am tempted. Do you have any power output specs?

Bump with final price drop. Can deliver at cost between North London and Essex. Give me a shout, we'll work something out.
