Due to some rather large vehicle maintenance bills on the horizon I need to raise some funds P.D.Q. so with a heavy heart I'm putting my Yamaha up for sale. Apart from the couple of dinks pictured it's in excellent shape for a 36 year old. Electrics are fine, no issues anywhere else. The bass comes with a good gig bag and can be posted as I have a suitable box and plenty of packaging. UK ONLY. Price includes UK postage. No trade offers thanks.

Status Kingbass MK2 headed.... 19mm Spacing and Blue LED’s (Mint Condition) A Special one this not only because it’s a phenomenal example of this instrument in perfect condition but it’s a rare 19mm string spacing. Have you ever picked up a Kingbass and loved the looks, feel and tone but found it really cramped and tight string spacing ? I have... ! That’s because Mark King prefers 16.5mm spacing and probably at least 99% of his signature Status Basses made by status have this spacing which for anyone coming from Fender / Musicman or almost any other bass can be a difficult adjustment..... The Kingbass MK2 is unmistakably Status in tone but because of the bigger body (similar to Alembic) and Jazz pickups has a more versatile and rounded tone suitable for any band situation.... this particular example sets up And plays clean at a lower action than any bass I’ve ever had my hands on.... it’s acoustic tone is massive with sustain for days.... you can hear the bigger fundamental in there from the bigger body and the flexibility of the circuit allows you to dial in anything you need..... My favourite tone is a slight bias to the bridge pickup with a touch of bass.... barks, bites and growls like nothing you’ve heard !! LEDs are a gorgeous bright blue ! Only for sale as I want to condense my range of instruments to an active Jazz and an Alembic (when I find the right one) I know I’ll regret selling but hey ho.... I’ve enjoyed owning it immensely. Due to consolidating my instruments I’m not interested in PX (unless it’s an Alembic)

[NOW SOLD, MUCH THANKS] http://www.acguitars.co.uk/project/0172-finn-r-type-fretless-5/ I put the link above to let the pictures do the talking...plus specs. As I’m going in a different direction, I’ve decided to let this one go. In mint condition! Plays like a dream! I spoke to Alan Cringean himself (luthier) and even he says he went in deep with this one and some lucky owner would enjoy immensely. The electronics is the East-UK, Uni-pre as I’m more familiar with this setup and so has a vast variety of tones in the engine! Partial lines and luminay dots on lines on the side. I’ll put a fresh set of strings on and a new 9v battery before collection or shipping (probably Newtones). I’ll add some home pics but the original pics are more professional so have a look at both. Aylesbury collection possible but UK shipping and Hiscox hard case included in the price. Note: this spec would cost approx £3000 (and you would have to wait!) Now....who’s feeling lucky?

I am having a clearout, so putting up a few basses tonight. This is an odd one, this is my 'wrongo', it is like an ali-express copy of a musicman bongo, but not really a copy, more a parody, by someone who has never actually seen a real bongo. I actually had to ask them to not put the proper bongo logos on it, although if they had, who knows where they would have been. So, its basswood, probably, its quite light. Has a thickish deep neck, so more musicman, but reasonably narrow spacing. The dimensions are all wrong, and when I got it, it went through batteries - although see those two 9v battery covers? One of them has nothing behind it! Turns out the bit that turns power off, the stereo jack socket, well , they had also gone for a 3 pin socket but it wasn't actually stereo so the battery was on permanently. That is now fixed with a new socket and is now functional. If you look at the detail, pretty well everything is wrong. The markers on the side don't even line up. That is all the bad, but in its defence, it actually plays very well, has a nice action and sounds pretty good. Presumably more by luck than judgement. I have even gigged it where someone actually asked me if it was a bongo. I mean, imagine someone in a pub audience noticing the bass and then knowing what a bongo was? And then being wrong It is actually a nice bass to play and it lived in my office as a sort of bash around bass. As such it has got a couple of scars on its actually not bad matte black silky surface. But, I need to reduce numbers and get rid of things, so it has to go. So here it is, can pick it up from my house for £125, or I can deliver or meet in a socially distanced way somewhere not to far (would be good for a drive), or I could probably ship it - can't cost too much as it isn't worth much so insurance isn't an issue.. Not going down below £125 because that is hardly worth the effort and I had to work on it. Can always hang on to it and sell it off at the SW bass bash when that happens. Don't want to trade as I am cutting down, although if there is something worth 125 that isn't a bass or amplifier related, I am all ears. Thing of beauty? I scratched it here on the side Look how well those line up. The machine heads aren't the best I have used, but it doesn't go out of tune. Two battery compartments - go on, which one is the real one, are you feeling lucky? Not too bad really Look at the masterful way the strings all bend slightly to the left. OK, so the pickguard was chewed away from the plastic by a small child and the fret side dots were applied by dats from a distance, but those frets aren't bad and the pickups work

PRICE DROP: £550 £475. I have dropped the price to meet demand! I am selling my Warwick Dolpin Pro II as I am just not using this, plus my wife has been made redundant. This historic bass deserves someone else to play it as it's great! There's very few of these around, from what I can tell. Very few in the UK anyway. The story behind these basses is that they were made by Warwick in Germany when Warwick was still small (before 2000). Warwick was too small to make them in great quantities so subcontracted to another company, which made items with bad necks and was selling these "out the back door" and thereby giving Warwick a bad name. So they eventually shut them down and moved production to Japan. This is one of the few that actually came from Germany, from what I can tell - 300 originally made I think? Unlike post-2000 Warwicks, this has a fairly thin neck. It has Just-A-Nut I on it (brass) where each string has an adjustable saddle to sit in on the nut. This is from 1990 so a super early one. Someone has done a bit of mix-and-match with the colour of the knobs (gold/black), tuners and bridge but I think it looks alright. Although the labelling has worn off the pickups, this has MEC pickups in it and a two-band EQ. Unlike some others, this DOES NOT have a passive toggle on the volume control so is active only all the time (9v battery at the back). This looks to have been bashed around before I owned it (perhaps it fell off a stand due to its awkward shape) so has spots of damage on the edge and a ding on the body that someone has filled. I've tried to photograph these as best I can, but it is nearly 30 years old, remember. Pictures and a demo video are available here: https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1BNQtEDbgzp42jifoiISAjXjr3M3pUwrp Any questions please ask. I am just outside Worcester, Worcestershire and would prefer not to ship this as I have no case for it (didn't go outside the house) and I have no cardboard to package it. I am happy to drive up/down the M5 a bit if this helps you for travel purposes. If you feel this is priced too high, please make an offer. Cash or Bank Transfer please, ideally bank transfer when we meet. POLITE NOTICE: I've had timewasters on other sites like Gumtree and those that think this bass should be 20p or free due to it not being a Streamer / Fodera / a thru-neck / not made of titanium / more than they want to pay. I've had quite a few daft requests and people believing I should be giving this away because it doesn't quite fit with their hazy dream of an ideal bass, eg. it's not a thru-neck... I've had people not show up when they said they'd buy it and all sorts of clowns and jokers. Let's leave them at the circus!

Sold Looking to sell on my KK Baby Bass. The tone is incredible from this thing and is such a joy to play, it's actually what got me into upright bass. With the small turn of a screw at the back you can go from low down action like a fretless electric up to high up blister heaven tone zone. The bass benefits from the newer model of bridge, and a tonal palette that can be sculpted on board from a tone knob and two screws on either side of the bridge to dial in tones from the classic Ampeg Baby Bass latin tone, to a more acoustic sound, or a more dub like thump. Strung with Thomastik Spirocore strings and includes a soft case and rather robust stand the bass can live on. Great shape overall, two small flakes of paint missing which I've documented in the photos. Ideally looking for cash, but would consider a trade for a Rivoli/EB-2 style bass or a Moollon Jazz V. Not a postage friendly instrument, but welcome to come try either at mine (TW20 0TJ) or at my studio in Battersea. Cheers, -Noah

Reduced to £600 My modular Orange revolution continues, hence, the Berg has to go to fund this. No trades, please. I can’t ship, due to size/weight/worry/lack of box, but will meet halfway within reason, or further for a fuel contribution. It’s in VGC bar a tiny dink on the rear RHS as per the photo, works perfectly, and sounds terrific. I’ve cribbed the tech spec from @Dood’s ad - hope that’s okay, sir, and here it is: From one of the finest bass cabinet designers of the 21st Century comes a new range of lightweight cabinets using cutting edge Neodymium speaker technology coupled with advanced lightweight cabinet design. Using only the highest grade lightweight void free Baltic birch and precision built custom drivers, this new range of cabinets from Bergantino Audio are already another hugely popular addition from this established company. The Bergantino Audio Systems ‘Carbon Neo’ CN series of lightweight speaker cabinets nod their head to the traditional HD series but have a different function. These are the lightest speaker cabinets that we make. The precision tuned cabinet architecture and the enclosures are built with the finest lightweight Italian poplar plywood (with Baltic birch baffle boards) selected to our specifications. This lightweight cabinet material (along with the lightweight magnet material) helps reduce the overall cabinet weight. The lightweight carbon covering is used for cabinet cover material and is also lighter than the traditional tolex covering found on most speaker cabinets. A rigid black grille is added to protect the drivers from damage. The internal components used are extremely high quality and they are of Bergantino design. No ‘off-the-shelf’ parts are used. Woofers with Neodymium magnet material are used for the low frequency section of the CN series cabinets. The Neodymium drivers have a punchier low-end and a very sweet midrange that is placed a little more forward in the sound field when compared to the HD series. Fretless and upright players will often prefer the CN cabinets because of how the midrange ‘speaks’ with their instruments. The CN series cabinets have a high intelligibility tweeter mated to the woofers through a custom designed phase-coherent crossover with a tweeter control. Because of the increased cost of the Neodymium magnet material, imported wood for the cabinetry and the unique covering material, the CN series speakers cost more than the HD series, but may just be the right match for your playing style and weight needs. Model CN212 specifications: •2 x 12" Custom Neodymium drivers with 7 oz magnets •high intelligibility 1" tweeter •custom phase - coherent crossover with tweeter level control •Precision tuned 100% Baltic Birch cabinet •power handling - 700 watts rms frequency response: tbc •sensitivity: tbc db @ 1 Watt/1 meter •2 x 1/4" and 2 x neutrik connectors •impedance: 4 ohms •dimensions: 31"H x 18-1/2"W x 15"D •79cm x 46cm x 38cm •weight: 46lbs/20 Kgs

DB Elbee 1210 Bass Cab 4ohm Ultra Light 12&10. 600w. Fantastic bass cab for the bass player who needs performance in a lightweight, compact package. Firstly this is a 4ohm cab. Which means you get the full output of your amp. It contains a 10" and a 12" faital pro speaker. The 12" is angled downwards for great low end, whilst the 10" cleverly is angled upwards at your ears which is ideal on stage - the sound is where you can hear it, not at the back of your legs. Its a tiny, yet very solid and well balanced cab - it wont feel it can topple like other lightweight cabs can etc. It has 2 side handles which make carrying very easy. Oh, and the whole cab is just 14kg!! Ive shown a photo with a small class d head (not included in the sale) to give you an idea of size. Official spec here. Impedance: 4 Ohms Speakers: 1x10” & 1x12” Bass Port: Bottom Power: 600W RMS Sensitivity: (1W/1m) 99 dB Frequency Range: 50 - 5000 Hz Input: Speakon Link: Speakon (for connecting an extra cabinet) Height: 53.8 cm - 21.18” Width: 34.4 cm - 13.54” Depth: 45.0 cm - 17.71” Weight: 14.6 kg - 32.2 lbs Selling only due to lockdown restrictions on our business - otherwise I'd be keeping it. I could get a lot more for it - rrp is £600. But, in the spirit of basschat and as I was given the tip off on here, I will sell for what I got it for £295. Pick up Leyland, Lancashire. Or can post at cost. Bass Guitar Magazine Reviews here: https://www.db-bass.com/bgm-review

Amazed this super quality boutique cab is still here Phil, especially with a sale price about the same as a Gen 2 Barefaced Super 12. I know the Berg's I've had have always "felt" Rolls Royce compared to Barefaced Porsche, if that makes any sense? Fabulous cabs.
