Happy to listen to offers on this as I’ve no intent on fitting it to anything and I have nowhere to store it. Would entertain trades on a pedal, fresh sets of strings etc. Fanks xxx

That's a very cool looking bass @Stub Mandrel - it just oozes mojo!!

I've had mine since about 1987 or 88. It's fretless from the factory, a blockwood body, rather roadworn and a new scratchplate. But IMHO a nice bass. My only fretless so it does still get gigged.

This is silly money for SUCH a great head. Shame these heads with proper iron don't get the right price in the market imo. Best of luck with the sale. Someone's gonna grab a steal.

What a stunning bass. Did it sell??

Lovely that. @Bassassin he's got the little wrench thing for the tuners!

For sale is this absolute monster of a bass - the very rare 5 string US Fender Precision Deluxe. This is the one with the Precision pickup at the neck and the ‘Double Jazz’ Humbucker pickup at the bridge & active 3B preamp, it’s a hugely versatile bass and is a proper tone machine! I’m not here to try to sell this particular model of bass to you - I’m sure you probably know what they are, so I’ll just tell you about this specific one. (If you’re looking online for it the bass is sometimes known as the “Fender ADPV” on TalkBass etc. If you are wanting where there is a lot of info/player reviews - they’re very well thought of, worth a looking there if you’re considering it as there’s a lot of discussion on there about them) These are extremely sought after due to the versatility of them & amazing build quality - l really don’t want to let it go and tried to sell my Mayones Jabba 5 instead first but there’s no takers, so unfortunately this is on the chopping block It has an Ash body, maple neck and is finished in a really nice transparent teal green (so you can see the grain of the ash underneath) and a 3 ply mint pickguard Sound-wise the bass can do it all - it’s a fantastic sounding bass, it has the Precision pickup at the front and the double jazz humbucker at the bridge. In my opinion the blend centred is one of the best fingerstyle sounds there is. Depending on the gig/genre I usually have the blend 10-20% either side of centre, front gives you a huge precision sound or rear gives you a bridge pickup style sound whilst retaining all the low end and not just sounding thin and ‘middy’, then give the Mid knob on the preamp a turn to taste - cut makes the bass sound more passive and boost gives a really nice mid boost that seems to cut through the mix (that’s just how I liked to use it anyway!) It’s an active bass and the 4 knob setup is Vol/Blend/Bass & Treble stacked/Mid - the mids are definitely the secret sauce of this preamp, also for some reason the mids turn the other way to the bass & treble, so forward is cut and backwards is boost - it’s always been this way, no idea why 🤷‍♂️ Condition wise, it’s in reality good nick, there is a couple of bits of buckle rash to the back, not much at all but enough to mention. It looks like someone before me playing with a pick and so there’s some dulling of the gloss and marks where someone has clearly been giving it some welly with a pick at some point, it’s not bad but it’s there. There is odd marks and stuff here and there as it’s a 23+ year old bass, but you wouldn’t know that - it looks great, no big dings on it, the chrome hardware still looks new - obviously it’s not perfect but there’s nothing worth noting. I’ve tried to do as many different pics as possible so you can see for yourself I’ve included screenshots of the info from the Fender serial number website in the photos but I’ll quickly list the important stuff: - Ash body/Maple neck & fingerboard - Satin neck finish - String through body or through bridge - 22 medium jumbo frets - 34” Scale - 9.5” (241mm) Fretboard Radius - Modern C shaped neck - Nut width - 1.875” (47.6mm) - Bone Nut - Abalone dot inlays - Deluxe lite bass tuners - Rolled fingerboard edges - Contoured neck heel This is an absolute top drawer US Fender, there’s not much else I can say, but it’s definitely one of the models that makes you realise why Fender has the name it does! These were made in a real golden era for modern Fender’s, these basses and the electronics were John Suhr designed and both the Jazz and the Precision deluxe’s from this era (mid 90’s - early 00’s) have almost mythical status and you can see why This comes with the original Fender moulded hard case, and includes the original case candy including manual, lifetime guarantee, stamped QC inspection card and all that, as well as the Fender branded truss rod tool & Allen key Price - £1,350 ono. Shipping/delivery can be arranged (Trades - May take cheaper trade + cash my way but it depends what it is, I already have a bass on hold and I need som) Loads of pics below 👇 Sorry for the essay, congratulations/commiserations if you managed read it all!

Excellent. I also have a 5 string Fender jazz modded with a Sadowsky onboard pre. Based on my experience somebody should be very pleased with this bass indeed. GLWTS.

Here we have my Trondheim Audio Skarbass One pedal for sale. Recently purchased from Basschat user @bassadder this is in as new condition save for the addition of Velcro on the bottom. Great little pedal, interesting eq options - very musical, nice ‘one knob’ compressor, and a drive that goes from subtle to gnarly. There are loads of great video reviews online by better players than me. Why am I selling? Well as good as it is, the drive isn’t going to kick the SansAmp off my small board, and I have all the tone shaping I need between the SansAmp and the EVS Stanley Clarke. Pedal comes in original box and price includes UK delivery.

Looks very nice Nik👍!

This'll be a beauty. Don't let Darkglass put you off, this is every inch a Stingray Special, just with a slightly different preamp voice and optional distortion. Allll the blackness.

No this is pre Sadowsky cheers.
