Fender Jazz Bass 1966 Great vintage 1966 transition model jazz bass with the beautiful dots and binding combination (done for just a short time). The bass is all original except for a refret and new bone nut. It plays great with a low action. I've got thomastik jazz flats fitted which do a great job. Sounds great with rounds too though. The bass has a very rich and clear sound, and does the bridge pickup snarl beautifully. The technical condition of the bass is good. The neck is straight, and the truss rod turns both ways easily. The frets are good too and are almost free of wear. All electronics and hardware are functional. The bridge pickup appears to be microphonic though, which causes feedback when using my fuzz pedal. As for looks, this one still has very vibrant burst. On the back you can see some nice grain from the alder body. The bass has a lot of small usermarks, but nothing significant that would be off for a used 55 year old bass. Overall there is some pretty finish checking. Te weight of this beauty is 4,2 kg without covers mounted. The original hardcase is included in the sale. Fixed lowered price: €7.250 I am located in the Netherland, but I am happy to ship at buyers risk and expense. Partial trades are welcome. Per example; mustang, music man Sabre... Also I am interested in Fender offset guitars (Jazzmaster, Jaguar..) or maybe a nice stratocaster. And maybe a good bass head (Gallien-Krueger RB series, Ampeg V4(b), ashdown ctm100)..

This is a rather tentative sale, but I’m playing my acoustic guitar so much that I don’t think I can justify having this baby sat on a stand all week. She is a 1972 Jazz bass which has obviously had some hammer over the years, sounds great, looks great, feels great, and has all the mojo and original parts, covers and original case. The neck has no visible stamp which is no surprise from this era, but as you can see from the photos all pickups, pots and soldering is original. Has a small drill hole above the E string through the pickguard where someone has previously installed a thumb rest there, other than that she is unmolested and altered, other than the occasional dink! Collection only from Retford in Nottinghamshire.

Heavily modified Ray34. I bought this bass new and as standard from Direct Music in Exeter in November 2018. I’ve since fitted a full pocket neck shim and replaced the pickup and pre amp with a Delano hybrid system and sonar 2 pre amp. Info on this system is here https://www.delano.de/hybrid_4/hybrid_4_details.html. its an excellent system with really good tone options including the obvious Ray and Jazz tones as well as combined Ray bridge and active Jazz neck tones. The pickups and preamp came from bass direct and cost in excess of £300. The routing for the extra pickup was carried out by me and I’m confident that it has been carried out to a high standard although more similar to Squier Jazz neck pocket routing as the rout is rectangular rather than pickup shaped. Somewhere on here there is a thread of when I was doing it. If I can find it I’ll add a link. the cavity has been shielded with foil tape. All original parts to return the bass to standard are also included although one of the pots has been removed from the original pre amp and is in use with the new set up. An spare treble pot for the hybrid system is included too as it’s a Delano special active treble and passive tone. I’ll also include a new stingray pickguard in black that needs the jazz pickup hole cutting out (easy job). The pick guard in the photo is the original to suit the Ray34 pickup rather than the standard stingray shape which the hybrid is modelled on. difficult to know where to price this but I think the asking price is fair. Any questions please ask. Collection only from mid Cornwall or I’m happy to drive up to Exeter if that helps.

Up for sale is a very beautiful Sei Flamboyant. I had grabbed it from here basschat marketplace. Unfortunately I don't play bass that much anymore. I will go back to one bass and I am more of a jazz bass guy. I am willing to trade this with a high-end jazz like Sadowsky, USA Lakland, Fclef something on that league. I would be really interested in a USA Lakland jazz. Specs are: - 34 scale - 1.5 inch nut - Ash body - 24 fret maple/bubinga seven piece neck - Ebony fretboard - Madrone burl (Strawberry wood) top and peghead veneers (Stunning) - Kent Armstrong pick-ups - Aiguilar OPB3 preamp 18V push/pull midrange sweep - ABM bridge - Gotoh tuners - Very light 3.5 kg - Lovely slim profile neck (Fastest neck I have ever played) The bass is in immaculate condition as can be seen in the pics. It comes with a hardcase. I am located in Eindhoven Netherlands. Willing to ship within continental Europe at the buyers expense.

I have been keeping this beautiful Roscoe for almost 10 years now. I bought and sold a lot of boutique basses in between but this one I never pulled the trigger. Unfortunately I don't play bass that much anymore. I am still not sure if I wanna let it go to be honest. But I need the money. I cannot see even one scratch on the bass. I never gigged it. Kept it like a baby. Specs are: Roscoe LG 3000 #5742 (Jan 2008) Swamp ash body Ebony sapwood top Maple purpleheart neck with walnut streamers Graphite nut 24-fret ebony fretboard Black hardware Angled Bartolini pickups 18v 3-band Bartolini preamp: 4 control knobs: - master volume - pickup pan - mid boost/cut EQ (pulls up for upper vs. lower mid EQ) - stacked knob: bass/treble boost/cut Weight on bathroom scale: 9.4 lbs. New, this bass would cost over $4k ($3.2k + ~$300 for the sapwood ebony top + $600 for the ebony board). Bass comes with original hardcase and certificate. I am located in Netherlands and can ship within Europe. Buyer pays the shipping costs. I bought and sold basses within this forum before. You can check my feedback.

Bass is all cleaned up and has had a decent setup with medium/low action. I can post safely boxed,bubbled wrapped and in a functional gig bag for an additional £25 More pics to follow

Tentatively putting up my Warwick Streamer Stage II for sale/trade. An absolutely stunning instrument and Warwicks best model imo. Condition overall is very good...Some slight fading on the gold and few minor dings. Nothing really noticeable. In terms of trades I'm looking for a 5 string of equal value or more (no fenders please) Perhaps a Super Jazz/P Bass but all offers welcome. Bass was built in Germany 2004 (see attached photo confirmation) and I've upgraded the nut to the brass Just A Nut III...A nice improvement to the setup. Based In South Beds. SPECS - Neck-through-design - Afzelia body - Ovangkol neck - Wenge fingerboard - YinYang inlays - Scale length: 34" (long scale) - 24 frets - Active MEC J/J pickups - MEC 3-way electronics - Warwick tuners - 2-piece Warwick bridge - Gold hardware - Just-A-Nut III - Weight 4.6kg

Fender Precision Bitsa - put together with all genuine Fender parts. Body is from a ‘50s MIM Fender Precision reissue. Neck, scratchplate and hardware is from a 2012 MIM Roger Waters Signature Precision. Seymour Duncan Quarterpounder P bass pickup. Spiral saddled bridge so you can adjust string spacing. It’s light weight at 3.8kgs and sounds great. There are a few minor blemishes but nothing structural. It’s a lovely maple capped neck with a brass nut. Action is nice and light, truss rod works fine. No case but I have a decent box to post it in U.K. only. Selling because my trusty amp has died and I need to replace it. No trades sorry. Postage at buyers cost. If it doesn’t sell at this price I’ll part it out. Cheers!

These ABM cabs were custom built by Ashdown, not for me but for a customer who changed their mind before they were finished. They've been part of my gigging rig for years but sadly no longer needed. They are certainly very loud and have never left me wanting more. Looking at the original order confirms they are loaded with SICA ferrite drivers. The cabs are loaded with horns but I had Ashdown disconnect them as I never use them, and the original order didn't specify the usual horm control for some reason! They could be easily reconnected if you know what you're doing. They are both in good condition, some signs of wear to the covering but nothing serious. The rubber on the carry handles is starting to perish but they are still functional. Collection only from Dartford.

Sorry about the price I had another pedal for sale at £100 which has now sold. I'm doing a bit of streamlining and reducing stuff which I love to use but don't really 'need'. Isn't it always the case! I mainly use a HX Stomp now for gig's as we tend to be IEM more often than not. SOLD - Red Witch Zeus Octave Fuzz - £100 - SOLD Cali76 TX - £650 with original box posted U.K. Next is my beloved Cali76TX. I had a big box, went to a smaller CB unit than went back to the big box. This is the TX version which can run on 9v (but doesn't engage the TX). When run at 18v it employs the 'Iron Core' transformer which is more ballsy than the more linear Lundhal version (and more 'musical' I think). The Iron Core adds a wonderful richness and compliments the CAli76 pre-amp and just results in any source sounding richer and warmer as a result. Simply as a tone sweetener it's worth a look but coupled to the fact it's a '76 style' comp too just makes it an always on pedal for me. Many threads debate the "need" for a comp but this box is so much more than simply a comp. Everything sounds better through this box and it's great for the home studio. Track acoustics, guitar, vox, stick it on a drum bus etc. The back pane, has a couple of switches for the gain structure and DI ground lif/pad. These do fetch a lot of money and it's up to the buyer if they feel it's worth experiencing one but if you wanna scratch the itch it's worth it! I've a mate paid £800 for his TX version about 5 yrs ago. Some slight cosmetic damage as I have gigged this pedal, and a little bit of the silk screen has come away - warning contact cleaner will strip the silk screen right off as I found out! It can also be used as a DI using a 1/4 out! Zeus WARRANTY V4.pdf

SOLD **On hold from 14:45 Friday 29th** Update. Mind is made up, she has to be set free I have a Trace GP12 122h 300w 2x10 combo in "as new" condition. It's barely been used and been kept under a fitted cover almost its entire life. It's feature laden, valve drive, harmonic emphasis, two band compressor, 12 band graphic EQ, trace pre shape... All of which can be switched on or off. It is in showroom condition, as they say. It weighs about 35kg which all in isn't so bad, it has side handles for easy carrying between one or two people. It has the green light behind the control panel working and the fitted cover included. I bought this a few months back and it sounds UNREAL with my Washburn Status. It is the sound of 80s pop. However, my 80s band folded not long after. I've been using my Ashdown gear a lot more recently and for the new band I've just joined I won't be using the Washburn Status and I think the Ashdown sound is more appropriate. So this may go to find upgrades to the Ashdown rig. I'll regret it. But if someone wants to offer cash and collect from between St Albans and WGC then I'll let it go. Better photos to follow.

Tell you what - if anyone is looking at a Classic Vibe jazz (what are they, £350/£400 now?) Or a Mexican Fender at £500+. give this a go. This is a) the same bass as a classic vibe (minus sticky neck lacquer) they were made by Farida at the same time - hence the Jaguar style lower horn. b) the best £150 you’ll ever spend. c) great platform for modding.
