  1. Bought these to try out on my short scale. Liked them but needed slightly heavier gauge to have more tension on my shorty.

    These are medium scale but previous owner had cut the E and A string for a long scale before realising he’d bought the wrong scale string.

    I did not cut the ends of the others as was just trying them out on a short scale as I said, so the E string shiny bit went round the post slightly. This would probably be after the nut anyway. 

    Only a couple hours use. 

    £12.50 to your door.
     

     

     

     

     

  2. Therese came on a bass I bought beginning of last year. I took them off pretty much straight away, but as I recall they were pretty fresh sounding so probably put on new.

    know nothing about them but look to be (and sounded like) nickel plated steel, 045-105.

    cut for long scale 2 over 2 under headstock bass, a-la Ibanez kinda thing

    £5.50 posted sounds fair to me

  3. This came in the Bronco bass I recently bought off here.  Sounds good and dirty but not what I want at this point in my life :)

    FYI, when the tone was turned right down, to my ears it reduced the volume a bit too.  YMMV.

    It looks to be like this one:

  4. Bought this lovely bridge off of @koval123 nearly a year ago for the fateful "project that never happened".  Has sat in a drawer since.

    "Bridge is equipped with a Drop-pitch lever, allowing for on-the-fly pitch change to the low E string. The fine tuner knob for the low E sets the range of the pitch drop when the lever is engaged. The other knobs on the A, D, G just allow fine tuning of those strings from the bridge end. The D-tuner lever also has a friction adjustment screw to set the "feel" of the lever.  
    The drop lever fine-tuner can be set to any pitch lower than E standard down to a low B. "

    Paid £55 delivered for it, so I'd like that for it.  

    Haven't weighed it but it is not a lightweight bridge, must be a couple hundred grams and those screws don't look 'fender standard'.  Haven't tried installing it myself, so can't offer too much practical advice.

  5. Incredibly light bass tuners, even lighter that Hipshot USA Ultralites. These are 52g each and made in Germany.

    They are for a 14mm route. They are in a used but good condition, just a couple of marks to the nuts.  Come in the original box and includes the screws.

  6. They are the medium scale strings but the E and A string have been cut for a "4 in a row" long scale bass before the original owner realised his mistake.  I put them on my short scale to try and liked them but they felt a little too light for me so have just traded up to the medium gauge. 

    As you can see from the pics, I did not cut any of the strings any further, so they would be suitable for a medium or short scale bass, either "4 in a row" or "2 per side".

    They have only had a couple hours use.
