Beautiful bass but having decided to keep my Enfield Fretless it was only a matter of time.... Stunning looks and curves (some Precisions just have better curves than others, this is very much one of the former), the board is in very good condition which takes very very low action for an FL. The bass has a highly responsive tonal palette that moves from mellow to snarly with just a few extra twitches of the right hand finger muscles. As Precisions go, this is a very very good example. I'll let the photos tell the story. Price is pretty firm (actually less than I paid but that's another story entirely), and having just sunk some money into a new (and metal) double bass, I really do need cash and not trades at present Lovely original tweed hard case included. Collection from Whitstable/meet-up in London/SE preferred but courier is of course also and option

Our Andyjr1515 built this to the same spec as my main gig bass (also built by Andy) as a backup. I've never had to use it in anger though as my other AR bass has been 100% reliable so I've decided to turn it into GAS vouchers 🙂. Compact, lightweight and a one-off in design terms, this bass is in top condition. Strap balance is perfect and the fast, slim neck makes it a sweet player. Functionally it's hugely versatile thanks to the 3 'lippy' pickups plus 7-way switching* that allows all pickups to be selected individually or in any combination. Each position gives you a distinctly different, totally useable voice, and I use all 7 on gig bas number 1 to suit various numbers in our covers band. Price includes a mint Gator shell case and a white-pearloid scratch-plate alternative to the ebony one fitted if you want to bling things up a bit. Strings are virtually unused La Bella flats. I'm happy to meet for mutually convenient handover within an hour's drive from Taunton or pack for shipment provided buyer arranges and pays for delivery. * Via 5-way slider switch and push/pull volume knob

Dear all It's time to let a few things go and this Handbox WB100 needs to go to a new home. It's in good condition, unused by me since I bought it home with the exception of testing that everything works ok before listing it today. I'm happy to send more photos if asked Not looking to post due to the valves, so prefer collection nr junction 26 of M25, I'll drive 50 miles or so for a meet if that helps Thanks all EBC

SOLD I’ve decided fretless isn’t for me so am just looking to get what I paid for this in 2022. It’s passive with stacked volume/tone knobs, a 3 way pickup selector and series/parallel switches. Everything works perfectly. Good condition for the age with a little wear to the fretboard from roundwounds. Was set up over the summer by Newcastle‘s very own Bass Doc who reckons it was either a special order from the factory, or was professionally converted to fretless to a very high standard. I’m based in whitley bay. No trades thanks unless you have a G&L. Happy to post - buyer to pay and organise. Will be bubble wrapped then put in an old gigbag and then a bass box. I’ve got a decent feedback thread on here. You’re welcome to try it out if you’re in the area.

I bought this last year from a basschatter. (using pics from that post) As you will see i have a bunch of basses up for sale in the hope to fund a bass i have been after for ages.

New price was around €2000 Euros back in the day, so 34 years ago... !!! Shipping to United Kingdom is, of course, possible, but with an extra customs fee (VAT + other taxes + courier fee), because U.K. is now outside EEC. In fully working condition and in quite very good overall condition considering it's a 34 years old bass. Here are the specifications : Body (back curved à la Spector) : 2 wings of flamed maple with 2 stripes of purpleheart Graphite reinforced neckthrough : 5 pieces à la old Leduc (3 pieces of rock maple + 2 pieces of purpleheart) Fingerboard : Macassar ebony with pearl side dots and front pearl arrow inlays Frets : 24 in excellent condition (no marks) Headstock : 4 + 2 in line with graphite reinforced peghead Pickups : 2 Peavey frequency tailored (hum-cancelling) reversed P-Bass type (split coil) Controls : volume, blend, active/passive switch, bass, mids and treble acting as a tone control in passive mode Preamp : Peavey Dynabass 3 bands EQ with gain adjustable through an original hole in the rear cover Tuners : new Gotoh Res-O-Lite GB-350 Bridge : Kahler 3D bridge Strings spacing at bridge : 16 mm at the moment, but adjustable up to 18 mm Nut : graphite Strings spacing at nut : 9.5 mm Knobs : original Peavey with rubber grip for the volume and blend Scale : 34 inches Hardware colour : gold Truss rod : one, called a torsion rod by Peavey Finish : transparent blue Land of craftsmanship : U.S.A.

Non-smoking environment as usual. I'm only selling this bass because I'm thinning down the herd for the reasons mentioned above. The bass has been fully set up professionally. It is fitted with a new set of Blacksmith ANW-32135-6-34 nickel-plated steel (Hexa Core) strings with proprietary AOT Nano Carbon Shield coating which prevents oxidation and dirt accumulation on the wound strings (32 - 45 - 65 - 85 - 105 - 135) that really serve the bass. What you see is what you get ! Look carefully at the photos taken under different angles and light to see the real condition, which is used with knocks, scratches and scars from 34 years of use.

Due to severe back problems (67% officially disabled because of it) plus right shoulder injury (non-operable capsulitis from which, after more than 4 years, I will never fully recover), I'm selling all my basses over 4.5 kilos and also the ones I'm not really using as well as some stuff I don't use. I've also considerably lowered the price for a quick sale.

For sale is my Alleva-Coppolo Bass LM5. (Empress/Maple) purchased in the USA at Bass San Diego in 2020. Everything is original and nothing has been changed. This is an extremely rare bass, built by Jimmy Coppolo. He only built a handful of LM-5 models out of Empress wood. This is one of them. I think this bass really only exists once. The response is superbly even and incredibly clear. The low B-string is clearly defined. This bass is insanely light at just under 3.47 kg and can be carried and played all the time. The Empress basses have the mid-scoop of a 70's style LM/maple jazz bass, but with a slightly "modern sounding" twist. The finish is a throwback to early 80s Fender basses with Di Marzio p/u's (the finish is called "Sienna Burst") and it has nice block inlays and custom "Fender Strat" buttons. It also has white pickups, just like the old Dimarzio pickups in the old Fender models. This bass is both passive and active (bass and treble boost when switched to active). This bass was made in a great time when Jimmy was producing some really incredible work. Everything works flawlessly. No quirks, kinks or dents. Potis work without creaking. Neck is straight and truss rod works flawlessly. The frets are like new with no visible play marks. Of course, it comes with a very high quality original Alleva gig bag. All in all a really wonderful instrument, unfortunately gets too little attention in my house. 😂 That's why I would like to give it away in good hands. No trades please.

Price drop to bring it more in line with other ones on here 2001 progress 6 for sale. I think I bought this around 2004/5. This used to be my gigging bass. It's in nearly immaculate condition, which for a 22yr old is pretty good going. Selling not swapping. 36" scale 24/26 frets Piezo fitted Maple Front and Back Walnut body Ebony Fingerboard Latest Overwater/East preamp fitted last year? It was during lockdown, nobody remembers what happened when. At least I don't 9v Active EQ XLR DI Out Vol, Treble, Mid, Bass, Blend, Pull Bright/boost Hiscox hard case included. Sensible offers considered

Very cool-looking one-off, I'm a sucker for a stripey bass! I've seen the same body* on a thing called a Double Eagle, made by Chushin Gakki. Probably sold with a bunch of other names, too. Double Eagle seems to have predominantly been a 70s/80s US aftermarket hardware supplier, akin to the likes of Mighty Mite & Schecter. *Looking closely, it is the same body - check the scratches. Think I know the naughty boy who bought the Double Eagle & parted it out (and for the elimination of any doubt & possible misreading I am referring to an Ebay seller, not the OP). And no - it wasn't me...

An unlined, fretless, P Bass in a natural finish. Simplicity itself - absolutely beautiful!

£400 was a steal! At that price, you can afford to ask Andy to re-body it for you 😉 The Rascal neck is the best I've ever played.

Btw that's the original white pearl scratchplate that's included as a spare/alternative with the black bass (re-shaped by Andy to fit the modified body of course 🙂)

I've just invested in one of those fancy carbon fibre cabs so I'm selling these two beauties. The 2x10" is the 2103H model and has been retrofitted with 2 Celestion BN10-300x Neodymium drivers. 8 Ohm total impedance. 600W power handling. Weighs a hell of a lot less than the originals! The 1x15" is the 1153 model. Fitted with a Celestion BN 15-300S Neodymium driver. 8 Ohm impedance. Again a massive weight saving from the original. Both cabs are manufactured from MDF with a plywood front panel. Covered in the dark grey Tolex. Very few nicks to the finish. All four tuning port plugs are included. XLR sockets have been replaced with Speakon connectors. The Trace Elliot badge has cracked on the 15" cab and the bottom tuning port on the 2x10 has been damaged. They sound fantastic with the new speakers separately and as a pair. I'm just too old to be lugging them about! This is obviously a collection or meet up as I can't get them couriered.

I’m the proud owner of a custom-made bass by Andy. In my opinion, anyone looking for a high-quality shortie will not find anything better at that price.

Here's mine. Pimped with Bassculture pickus, I then removed the active electronics. The story, many years ago in a small German bassists community a member offered it for a ridiciously low price. Links to sound files proofed it souds great. No one jumped on it, it just sat there. Finally I couldn't hold back and wrote "ok, send it over." Came out: great tool, distict, articulate, midrangy tone with great rhythmic clarity. My drummer loves it and in case I'm gonna sell it, he opts to buy it first in order it doesn't get lost.
