Bought new by me in Sept 2018. Good condition, well looked after, and just minor signs of use over 3 years - nothing nasty. The case has marks on the front from tight storage. Weighs 8.64lbs (3.92kg).. Some of these go up to 9.5lbs or more, so this one is a good weight for a HH Special. Back in 2018 the bodies were listed as swamp ash, now it’s just ambiguously stated as ‘select hardwood’.... Has a neck to die for, is roasted maple and a great shape. The tones are plentiful with the HH and the new revoiced EQ which is incredibly versatile and useable across the full sweeps. This is far and beyond the most ergonomic Ray they have released, very comfy to hold. No trades please, I’ve just cathartically sold 2 other high end instruments and am feeling like my bass chi is back to optimum 😁 My feedback - https://www.basschat.co.uk/topic/216739-feeback-for-chiliwailer/

This is an interesting bitsa bass I built around an old ‘78 US Fender Precision bass body I came across. The intention was to use a Status graphite neck however being a cheap skate I ended up putting an Indonesian Squier maple neck on it that works really well. It has a 70’s Fender decal replacing the Squier logo and a set of Hipshot tuners. It plays very nicely indeed and is currently set up with D’Addario flats. The pickups are a Fender Mexican P Bass taken from a 50s reissue and a US Jazz. It’s wired as a simple two volume, single tone circuit and you can get characteristic P or J sounds from the individual pickups and some nice variations when using both. The body itself was stripped many years ago and an oil finish applied. The ID stamp remain in the neck pocket, the enlarged control cavity has been well shielded. The screw pattern under the scratchplate matches the plate from my 77 Precision and there are no extra screw holes. The tortoiseshell style scratchplate is a reasonable quality replacement and has some extra holes drilled into it. The bridge is the threaded 50’s type that gives you better adjustment for string spacing. It’s top loaded of course. Importantly the body is not a boat-anchor compared to many of this era. The whole instrument weighs in at 4kgs. I’ve used this a lot as it’s a lovely bass to play, the neck is excellent - a surprise to me in fact as I haven’t played a maple Squier neck of this type before. The nut width is slightly less than my 77 P bass and around the same as my JV. I’m not looking for trades. I am open to decent offers as I’m not sure how to price it. Cash on collection would be preferable but I can post within the UK. If anyone wants to buy the body on its own pm me with an offer as someone may have an original ‘78 neck out there. Thanks for looking.

2006 Fender USA Precision Bass Butterscotch I have had this bass for about 10 years and it has seen very little use, never been out Gigging so condition is 9/10 Some swirling to the back and the scratch plate , one tiny match head dimple on the back and a very small dent to the lower edge but otherwise great condition. Nut width is 40mm and a very comfortable neck, fret wear is minimal. It has the S1 switch, everything works as it should and the neck is quite straight, good action and a Joy to play The grain can be seen through the finish, weight is 9lbs 4oz Comes in the original moulded case which has plenty of scuffs marks on the outside but otherwise functional Selling due to recent acquisitions and sale only so no trades, sorry, was hard to pick one to sell 🤔 Price includes delivery to UK Any questions guys please fire away..

NOW £400 cant drop any lower. Price new for this model plus the upgrades is way more than £400, so a huge deal to be had here Here we have an as new SUB4, mahogany body, matt sunburst finish, maple neck in perfect 'as new' condition. I have been through a bit of a Musicman phase and now have 5 and really need to get the critical 'ray mass down a tad. I have a lot of experience of setting and modding guitars and this has has some subtle usable mods which definitely lift it out of the range of your average SUB4. 1. bridge. I cant stand the big plate entry level bridge on the subs. This is a decent facsimile of the smaller plate version and looks far better imho. 2. Pickup: Bartolini poleless musicman pickup. Great tonal upgrade to the stock. 3. Coil selection switch series/single/parallel. TBH this is such an easy mod every stingray should have it. Series mode gives a bottom end boost without too much loss on the high end. Single is like bridge Jazz bass mode, parallel is like the USA basses (standard SUB 4's are wired series i have found) New versions have a basswood body so this is a standout version having the mahogany variant. The wood gives the sunburst more of a tobacco inner colour as opposed to a bright yellow. A better look imho. Overall finish (fret ends etc) is excellent. Bass is ungigged and will come with its original sterling by Musicman soft gig bag. If you are considering a SUB4 anytime soon, buy this. If you live somewhere close-ish to London I can deliver for petrol monies. Shipping via UPS insured will be about £35 - £40 Or, Pickup from Rochester Kent.

**PRICE LOWERED TO £1500** Beautiful Stingray Special which is almost unused. This was bought new in February this year and I acquired it not long after via this site. The bass itself is a fantastic instrument with a lovely smooth roasted maple neck and rosewood fingerboard. The natural finish isn't too common on the Specials and this is a fantastic example. Its set it up with a low action and it is honestly one of the easiest and most comfortable basses I have ever played. 2 Humbuckers with a 5 position switch giving a huge range of classic 'Ray tones and more. The powerful 18v pre-amp allows for precise EQing with loads of headroom. The hardcase has a few external marks but nothing drastic. I would prefer pick up and would be happy to talk about meeting up. Have kept the box it was delivered in so can use that for a courier for an agreed fee as well (UK only please). Will consider Trade for an Ampeg SVT and cash adjustment.
