This is 27 years old but has recently been completely refurbished/refinished and refretted, consequently it’s in mint condition. The refinish was done by Sims guitars in Kent, they’ve done a truly fantastic job. It features a thuya root face and back with an ash core. The neck is wenge and maple with a 24 fret ebony fretboard which has a very thin band of lighter wood purfling running along the edge. It’s 34” scale length with twin Kent Armstrong humbucking pickups and a Bartolini preamp. The bass is amazingly easy and comfortable to play, and very lightweight. The string spacing is about 18mm at the bridge. I would prefer collection from Birmingham, or I can deliver for train fare. The instrument comes with a Hiscox case. Trades welcome for cheaper 6 string basses plus cash my way. I particularly like the headless thing, so maybe Status?

SOLD - Thanks for all the interest! Hello all, I've decided to put my fretless up for sale. It's an Adamovic Jupiter 4, fretless, made by Nikola Adamovic in Holland. This is an amazing instrument but it's leaving the family to free up some room for a 6 string fretless. A quick run down of the specs below: 4 string 34" scale Flamed redwood top and headstock cap Limba body Spalted maple lined freboard and nut Flamed maple and purpleheart neck Glockenklang 3 band preamp, knobs are volume, pickup pan (there are two pickups under the ramp), treble, bass and mid. I can't remember what all the little switches do, one is a killswitch, I think the other changes mid-freqs adjusted by the mid knob and the other is a phase knob but I'm not 100% certain. Overall the bass is in great condition, it has a few marks in the finish from aging that I've tried to capture in the photos but it has been looked after by the previous owners and there are no big chips or dings in the finish. The fretboard is in great condition, the action is nice and low as I had it set up by Curvy Sounds in Newcastle not long after I bought it. The preamp is nice and flexible, I'd say it leans towards the classic fretless sound more than the modern super bright fretless sound. It's fat and warm but the mids can be boosted for more attack or for playing "Portrait of Tracey" on repeat. Every time I play it I think it's an amazing bass but I yearn for 6 strings, if this bass was a 5 or 6 I'd keep it until the grave but alas, it's a 4 so it's disposable to me. Despite it's appearance the bass is very small and incredibly light.My bathroom scales think it's 2.3kb / 5lbs and I'd say that's about right. It's a featherweight but it's incredibly resonant and loud when not plugged in, it balances perfectly on a strap, as should be expected as Nikola's philosophy when making his designs was "ergonomics first". I had a look on his website and with his 2018 price list and this would have cost in excess of 4500 euros to be built today. With regards to payment I can do Paypal or cash on collection. I can drive to meet or deliver as long as it's not too far from Newcastle. I travel for work and spend a lot of time around Europe so I'll do my best to answer any questions asap. I'm happy to PM my number to discuss the bass on the phone provided I'm not working outside of Europe zone 1. THe bass will be shipped in a hard case, shipping would be £30 within the UK. International buyers, PM for a price. I'd be interested trades, PM me if you're interested, I'll consider anything. Cheers, Dave

Fender Precision Bass Deluxe USA Nice Fender five string P deluxe in a delightful cherryburst finish. P deluxe V basses seem to be fairly rare now. These are very versatile basses with a lot of great sound possibilities, which cover a lot of styles. I wouldnt compare this bass to a standard passive precision. The body has some nice grain to it. The fretboard is made from pao ferro which looks awesome. Its smooth and shiny. The serial number dates this bass to 2005, though the neck is dated early 2006. So its got the anniversary label on the back of the headstock. It's defenitely not a heavy weight champion. I did weigh the bass on my kitchen scale, which says it weighs about 4.1kg! Some pictures: As you can see on the pictures, a (original replacement) black pickguard is fitted. The original pearl pickguard is included in the sale. The bass is in good used shape, with only light user marks (scratching on the back). It still looks and feels very fresh. Elixir strings have been fitted. I got this bass in a trade a while ago, as I did want to try a fiver again after a few years. I think its an awesome sounding allrounder, but I still dont like to play fivers it seems... A Fender molded hardshell case is included in the sale Now £1.100 with fender molded hardcase, or £1.050 without. Trades/partial trades are certainly welcome! I like traditionally styled basses, 4 strings only. I would especially like a vintage lightweight precision (could add some money) from the early 70s or late 60s per example, or a vintage mustang bass... Otherwise; surprise me!! The bass is located in the Netherlands. I am willing to ship within the EU (includes UK) at buyers risk and expense. Costs will be about 60gbp with neck attached or 30gbp with neck seperated. Price is firm. I wont include shipping in the price.

I'm moving on my Phil Jones Bass Cub as it's no longer needed now I'm selling my double bass. It's the black version, in excellent condition, comes with the carry bag, and has recently been PAT tested. £360 collected or can post.

I'm sure a new one still does. This one came with the Hiscox case shown in the photo. I bought the MM case for my SR4 but thought I'd give the buyer case options and priced accordingly - some buyers dont want hard cases at all.

As long as your drummer uses 7A sticks you’re fine with your class d amp.

If i get it in a skoda fabia, i am sure an A4 will be no problem.
