  1. Agreed. It looks an expensive bit of timber!
  2. Sting & Shaggy (yeah right!) were on The One Show a few days ago. Sting was playing a beautiful single cut extra short scale bass (similar size to a U-Bass). Anyone know what it was?

    SOLD

    Wow!! If I won the lottery 🤗
  4. Bass is now sold. Thanks for a smooth transaction Ben & hope you enjoy the bass!
  5. Leamington Spa UK - I'm about a mile from the Bass Direct store in Warwick. Post code area begins CV31 2 I have a tecamp puma 1000 amp & a tks 1x12 cab if anyone wants to trial this bass or either of the other two for sale (Maruszczyk 32" scale Jake or the Overwater 33" scale Scott Devine Jazz).
  6. Yep, looks good, feels good, sooo lightweight and sounds great with a delicate touch.
  7. Reduced Price £1500 This is a superb example of the Overwater Scott Devine Signature Series Jazz Bass. Made in the UK in Carlisle. Overwater basses are hand-crafted and are the preferred bass in the majority of West End theatres and on Broadway too - this is in large part due to their superb, silent electronics keeping hum suppressed. I bought this from Chris May at Overwater direct in May 2016, although the bass was manufactured in 2015. I am the second owner, but the bass is absolutely immaculate without a mark, dint or scuff and has only had light home use since it arrived fully set up direct from Overwater. In fact, the only mark at all is a small split in the lid of the flight case. This was there when I bought it as I got a 'deal' on the case from Chris May at Overwater (£75 - they are usually a lot more for a brand new one). I knew I wasn't going to be travelling anywhere with the bass, but the small split in no way affects the structural integrity of the case. Photo attached. The bass has a 33" scale neck and a narrow string spacing (16.5mm) and was designed with Scott Devine (who used to be a guitar player, so was used to smaller instruments). You can see one in action on many of Scott's bass lessons on You Tube. Description: Overwater J Series Scott Devine Model 4 Condition: Excellent. Like new. Home use only Specifications: Neck: 1 Piece Maple Scale length: 33” Body: Medium weight Swamp Ash Top: N/A Back: N/A Finish: Natural Satin Head Veneer/Finish: Natural Satin Fretboard: Maple Frets: 20 - Medium Binding: None Position Markers: 6mm dots + 2mm side dots Machines: Hipshot Ultralite - Black Bridge: OW Single bridge pieces - Black String spacing: 16.5mm Pick-ups: OW ‘Noiseless’ J4 Controls/EQ: Overwater/John East Buffer pre-amp + passive EQ Scratchplate: Black Weight: 9.5lbs/4.3Kgs Year: 2015 Case: Overwater brand Hiscox hard case included – excellent condition apart from a small split on top
  8. **SOLD** Reducing my collection, so no trades thanks. This is a gorgeous instrument and deserves to be played regularly. Rob Allen Mouse 30 fretless short-scale (30") 4-string, built in 2014 and in absolutely immaculate, like-new condition. Swamp Ash two-piece body with Eastern Walnut top. Birdseye Maple neck with Goncalo Alves fingerboard and bridge. Supplied with reinforced Rob Allen soft-case from new. Fitted with Labella 760N black nylon wrap flats. From the Rob Allen website: - The Mouse 30 packs all the fun of a short scale bass into a full professional quality instrument. The lower string tension provided by the short scale has several benefits - easy playability, sweet upper register tones and fat blooming low end, not to mention the added nuance that comes naturally when playing this type of bass. The piezo pickup (mounted under the saddle in the bridge) is a vibration sensor that lets the wood speak, creating a cross between an upright and an electric bass. 30" scale 1 5/8" nut 23/32" string spacing at bridge fully shielded body cavity body finish - polyurethane modified oil neck finish - nitrocellulose lacquer single volume control integrated in bridge Fishman preamp & piezo pickup La Bella 760n black nylon wrap strings Hipshot Ultralight tuners weight 5.5 lbs. celluloid nitrate (tortoise-shell) binding on body overall instrument length 38" (same length as a Telecaster)
  9. [quote name='jahfish' timestamp='1510297944' post='3405332'] for completeness have you a picture of the back of this lovely bass? [/quote] Added photo of back of body and back of headstock.
  10. [quote name='funkydario' timestamp='1510304705' post='3405393'] there is a push/pull to put the HB in single mode ? [/quote] No, there's no push/pull on the HB
  11. [quote name='funkydario' timestamp='1510262673' post='3405216'] Any sound available ? [/quote] Haven't got any available I'm afraid, though I think WaterofTyne has some good videos using one of these.
  12. **SOLD** Medium scale, lightweight Maruszczyk with P & HB pick ups. I bought this stunning bass from The Brig of this parish. It was built to his specification directly with Adrian at Maruszczyk & he also supplied Adrian with the artwork for the headstock. New price was £1097.75 when the Pound was worth more than it is now. Comes with the Maruszczyk supplied fabric gig bag & leather strap. Currently sports a set of medium scale roundwounds. Home use only, so immaculate condition. Sounds amazing. The humbucker has real grunt! Specs: Body: Alder with one-piece ash veneer front and back, gloss finish Neck: Maple with matching headstock, 38mm nut width, white neck binding, MOP block inlays, matte finish Hardware: Hipshot ultra light C 3/8 tuner, standard bridge Pickups: Maruszczyk P & HB, passive, volume, volume, tone Scale: Medium 32" Weight: 7lb 8oz SOLD - not looking for trades sorry.
