I have a really nice example of a USA original Peavey Cirrus V bass. I bought it whilst living in the USA. Unusual and new, it has a delightful rich tone. It’s just I’m trying to clear wall space down to say two basses its a bit posh for me, I never use a lot of my basses and hoarding is a waste. Description Spec The body is of Red Oak and Alder composite. The fingerboard is in Rosewood at 24 Frets. It’s a long neck. A 35' single wood through body bass. Tuners are Gotoh 720’s I think. Original anyway. The Bridge is an original milled brass bridge, and all parts are in gold colour. No pitting or deformities. The Control section is comprised of Volume, Pickup blend, EQ: Bass, mid & treble controls with a 10dB boost/cut a huge range of tonal controls. Comes supplied with the original Peavey Hard Case. I’m not looking for trades to be honest, (although I have seen a few ACGs that get me damn near close, she says not looking for any more “posh” basses). Hit me up with a PM if you are interested.

Now £350 Are you sitting comfortably..? then i'll begin A few years back the fine people at Enfield/SIMS were selling off some stuff from their workshop. This is one of those things. Its was a P bass body with about 2mm skimmed off the face and an Acrylic cracked mirror facing expertly applied. The 21 fret (yay high E!) neck is Maple and the headstock was modified to give a more old school p bass vibe. Hardware was a knackered old BBOT bridge and no electronics. The Back is gloss black by the SIMS paint shop. I started out by cleaning and doing a set up to see of the neck was any good etc. Turned out the heel of the neck had to be reduced by a couple of mm, which i did (probably due to the skim from the front for the acrylic changing the neck pocket presentation). I also tidied the headstock the Nitro varnished the back of the neck and knocked it back to give a very smooth and non sticky feel. On the body I installed a Kick-donkey (edit KICKASS) bridge, my go to p bass pickups the Dimarzio DP122 (adjustable pole pieces., high output, great tone), Copper shielded control cavity, CTS pots, orange cap and cloth wiring. The machine heads are un-stamped but are very good quality. Suspect they are Schaller or similar definitely not a Chinese £15 a set! I tried a few scratchplates and settled on the mirror one you see here. Weight: approx 9lbs or 4kgs.. The bass now plays great, warm hi output and looks the nuts, or at least looks unique! I have gigged it a good few times an it always generates positive comments. It certainly has 'mojo' and plays great, truss rod is free and adjustable, plenty of room to manoeuvre on the saddles for low/hi action. There are scratches on the back and one dint in keeping I guess from a guitar that sat around in a workshop for a good while Condition is subjective I guess as its seen some life not road aged or heavily knocked about but there are a few dints here and there, but show room isn't what this bass is about. It's unique characterful and lets face it Shiny! So to sum up this is a very nice p bass, you definitely wont see another, plays well, choice hardware and all for the price of a Squier... Some pictures...apologies is needs a wipedown edit: just run some polish over the back, and most of the scuffs have polished out..last pic of back updated.

I assembled a bass from some nice parts. I’d really like to get down to two basses soon. I have a fretless Precision Jazz with Seymour Duncan Quarter pounder pups, Fender tuners, a hipshot badass 4 heavy bridge, brass nut and a lovely flamed maple neck. Fender neck plate. Rosewood marker-less fingerboard (be warned the side dots are not for fretless, I know I know, it’s what I had to hand) Current strings are LaBella Heavy flatwounds. It’s not a proper Fender PJ (the decal *definitely* wasn’t my idea, but i kinda fell in love with the Flamed maple and the skunk stripe was just [chef’s kiss]) parts were all new and unused and sourced here and there: ebay for the body, basschat, talkbass — but it’s a lovely ash body bass and in beautiful condition. weight is 5.4kg. 11lbs yeah. It’s not light wood but heavy lumber and a real woody so it rarely gets used in my Punk Rock Project. The profile of the neck is very comfy and it has a great tone. Just clearing wall space. The neck is bolted using stainless steel bolt inserts (this is standard in all my builds) and this is good for sustain and tone and general sturdiness. It’s also a good low action and the bass has a really satisfying growl. Looking for £399 plus shipping (which is less than the cost of the parts). Also comes in a tatty but safe for shipping gator case.

SOLD Hi, Up for sale is my Sadowsky Metro Express (Made in Japan) RV4 Jazz bass in Olympic white. Originally bought from guitarguitar a couple of years ago. It is in excellent condition - as you can see in the photos below. I'm selling as my MV5 covers all my jazz bass needs and I would like to get something a little different. If you are familiar with Sadowsky's you'll already know that they are very easy to play, lightweight and sound incredible and this one is no exception. I'll be sad to see it go but it's not getting used enough to warrant keeping it. Comes with the offical semi-hard case. I'm looking for £1500. Bass is currently strung with DR rounds, here's a couple of clips of the bass in action: With rounds: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fsgyyTFKN-Y With flats: https://www.instagram.com/p/CCNq0OiHxjs/ Weight: 3.7kg Spec: Body Solid Alder Fingerboard Morado Frets 21 Nut Sadowsky Just-A-Nut III Pickups Sadowsky set Controls Volume, pickup blend, treble roll-off (VTC) with pre-amp bypass, bass boost, treble boost Bridge Sadowsky bridge with quick string release Tuners Sadowsky Light machine heads with open gear
