FYI, this is the bass they were on
-
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
-
M7200 044-106
Really nice sounding strings, have about 20 hours of play time on them, so nicely broken in. Wiped down after each gig.
Sit halfway between rounds and flats, both in feel and tone.
Silks scrappy from having been “moved” a couple of times, so £12.50 delivered
-
RS77LD 045-105
Very light usage but have been “moved” a couple of times so silks a little scrappy.
Edit: OK, make that a lot scrappy
Cut for a long-scale, 4 in line tuners.

Bought my Schaller tuners. Smooth as you like, thanks mate.

Came across this picture and was reminded about @Jabba_the_gut 's for sale post for the above pickup.
This is how I wired it up to the blend pot of a @KiOgon wiring loom (after much trial and error) thought it might help someone else, especially the person who bought this particular one.

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:

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.

Do you know if you can reverse them? Make them 2x2 for example?
"All sealed tuners are lubricated with Schaller special grease for lifetime maintenance-free service."
I would say not.
However, they do 2 left 2 right version, so look out for that.

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.

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.

Bought lightly used D'Addario Chromes. Excellent strings and exactly as described. Highly recommended.

Well, If the SVT 8x10 is free I'll have that too!
Never mind, they probably cost more to post than they're worth these days anyway. PM on it's way and thanks

Yes please, can you post?

Sold pending payment. That was quick!
That’s because it’s a super compressor, and a decent price for a pre-built one.

Bought my P/J body. Absolute pleasure to do business with, totally recommended. 👍

Oh that’s nice

Withdrawn. I might part this out at some point.

Damn, that is a fine looking instrument and very lightweight!

Bought his Squier Bronco.
Start to finish, a great experience. He's a credit to BC.

Took a bit of figuring out to get it into a blend circuit but I could have a look for the photo if anyone needs it.
Had a look for the review video for the V80 bass with this pickup in it but looks like it's gone. Blended 60/40 in favour of the delano stlyle was my favourite setting. Has a unique and very special tone.
-
Superb pickup, I used to have one. The Vintage V80 bass has one and our very own Dan Veal reviewed it. Check it out on YouTube, sounds great.

How on earth is this still here? It's a fair price without the upgrades and with them it's a steal. If I hadn't bought a new one the day before, I'd have snapped this up.

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.
