Considering parting with this for the right price. 100% original, near perfect condition. A tiny crack has been repaired in the freatboard (12th fret IIRC). Barely visible, can be made 100% invisible with a slight sanding. Aluminium parts have been coated with ceramic paint. Serial puts it at late 74/early 75. Feel free to PM for more photos or with questions. I don't come on here often enough, but I'll get email alerts from PMs. I'll be visiting the UK again soon, and I could bring it along for a potential buyer if there's serious interest. IN JUNE ILL BE IN WILTSHIRE and possibly elsewhere, let me know Sorry lads, sold locally

A truly gorgeous 5-string presented for sale in what Charvel call 'Lambo Green Metallic', but I think would be more accurately described as metallic British Racing Green. It's quite hard to photograph - my pictures don't do it any justice, I'm afraid, but here goes anyway: I bought this bass last Autumn, and have thoroughly enjoyed home noodling on it, but when gigging time comes I still find myself reaching for my trusty Sandberg. And a massive and sudden upswelling of GAS for an Eventide H90 means that something has to go, so here we are ... First thing to say about this bass is that it looks STUNNING. I normally hate gold hardware, but on this bass it works so, so well with the green finish, 'caramelised' (i.e. roasted) maple neck and cream pickup covers. In fact I'd say that the aesthetic 'togetherness' of this bass is reflected in other aspects too - the whole instrument gives the impression that it has been carefully thought through from the ground up. You have JJ pickups but a Precision-style body, which I really like. The alder/maple woods combo is classic, as is the tone - I had been expecting it to sound very zingy and modern, and was actually quite surprised to find it actually has more of a vintagey, 60s jazz tone by default, although of course you can get a more modern top end (or whatever else you want) using the 3-band eq (cut and boost). The volume pot is also a push-pull active-passive toggle switch, so you can run it in passive if the battery were to fart out mid-gig. Passive mode sounds good too, although there is no passive tone roll-off if that matters to you. The low B is excellent, especially for a 34 scale, and is fully integrated in terms of both tone and feel with the other four strings - I think the very chunky Badass-style bridge helps a lot with this. The neck is graphite reinforced, silky smooth and very slim, and the fingerboard has rolled edges and a very shreddy 12”-16” compound radius. Oh, and it even has Luminlay side dots, too. Truss rod adjustment is Music Man style, with that nifty little wheel thingy where the neck meets the body. Weight is 4.1kg on my digital postal scales, which is nice and light for a 5er. Better still, and despite the light weight, this bass balances perfectly on a strap. I have zero tolerance for neck dive, and am happy to report that this has no such issues at all. In short, this is a lot of bass for the money. Cheapest new prices seem to be from Gear4Music and Bax at £769.00, so £675 for this bass is a decent chunk off, especially considering that it is in immaculate, as-new condition. Happy for you to come and collect from Birmingham B30, or to post within England, Scotland or Wales for an extra £25. I'd also be willing to meet halfway within an hour or so's radius by car. No trades on this one, please, unless you have an Eventide H90 to offer! Thanks for looking!

If your looking for a quality jazz with a fantastic tone your in the right place. I’ve tried a few USA jazz basses (not all) and I can honestly say I prefer this one, particularly the stacked knobs, I find them more versatile for tone. It’s vintage worn in feel was just so comfortable from the start and the pure vintage 64 pickups are fantastic. Here’s the fender spec: Offset alder body; Road Worn Faded Shell Pink nitrocellulose lacquer finish Maple neck with "C"-shaped profile and 1.5" nut width; Road Worn nitrocellulose lacquer finish on back of the neck 7.25"-radius rosewood fingerboard with 20 vintage-style frets Dual Pure Vintage '64 Jazz Bass single-coil pickups Special 4-bolt neck plate with engraved artwork by Flea (I’ve replaced this but have the original) Comes with the supplied fender soft case. It’s Strung with flats possibly D'addario chromes. Weighs 8lb on my non digital bathroom scales and my baggage scales so nice and light. Not much else to say except it’s a sad sale, I’m just playing my P bass or stingray most of the time. No trades for now. No postage at this time I have no box but I’m happy to travel a reasonable distance (50 mile) to deliver or meet up. I will also travel greater distance for some petrol money and a cup of tea 😄

*edit for price drop - now £800* Hi all, up for sale is my ACG Recurve which I recently acquired in a trade. My heart was obviously overruling my head at the time as sadly I still need the cash. It's in virtually immaculate condition and has been very well looked after by previous owners. Comes with a basic hard case. I can ship but UK only please, pickup is do-able too. Spec is below. For those not in the know ACGs feature a couple of tweaks to most bass guitars, these are: • Asymmetric neck. Thicker under the E string tapering to thinner under the G string. It's not massively noticeable but it's incredibly comfortable and ergonomic. • Flat fingerboard (no radius). I genuinely don't know why basses need a radiused fingerboard, tradition I guess. Flat feels so good and is a dream to play. • Filter preamp. A natural sounding active preamp (made by John East). Stack 1: vol & blend. Stack 2: a filter for neck pickup, bottom ring is the frequency and acts like a really powerful tone control. The top is called "overshoot peak" and is like a resonance control and makes the freq you chose on the bottom ring more or less pronounced. Stack 3: same as previous but for the bridge pickup. Stack 4: controls the amount of overall treble. Bottom is frequency as per the previous two and top is gain/volume for overall treble (essentially off on minimum volume). The filter preamp can seem intimidating but once you've played with it it's really intuitive and you can get such a broad range of tones. Its best trick is to set each pickup to a perfect individual neck and bridge tone then mix between them. ACG Recurve Build year: 2018 (I think) Scale: 34" Body wood: alder Top wood: keyaki (Japanese wood, looks lovely: similar grain to lacewood) Neck: bolt on 3-piece ash and wenge Fingerboard: birdseye maple Pickups: ACG single coils Preamp: active ACG EQ01 dual filter Hardware: Gotoh and Hipshot Finish: clear acid lacquer (satin) Locking Neutrik jack Dunlop strap locks Cheers. Any questions, just ask.

I have for sale a set of original 1970s PAF DiMarzio Model J Pickups that came out of a project Jazz that I no longer have, these sound fantastic, but I’ve no use for them so these are up for sale. In used condition, no screws. price to include delivery to UK addresses The first pic is the actual colour

Hohner Professional JJ Jazz Bass, Active Pickups 1980's. Fantastic looking, sounding and playing jazz bass with active pickups from the late 80's professional series. Good overall condition (photos) with:-

I got this recently and it's great but I have too many basses. I was quite impressed by the active electronics on it, it's very versatile. Nicely balanced, great value for the money. It's basically very nearly new (2022 model), a few sratches on the scratchplate, but nothing to write home about. One thing to note, the fret markers are pearloid stickers, its black dots under that. Any questions just ask, 🙂

Westone Thunder 1A bass MIJ Matsumoku made. I listed this last week but withdrew it as I decided to get the pickup sorted out before I moved it on. I subsequently got it rewound by Armstrong Pickups and now it sounds as good as new. It has a surprisingly versatile 18v preamp and has lots of useable and punchy tones. It’s a real workhorse of a bass and built like a tank, all original with the exception of a replacement control knob. All switches and pots work properly and the action is nice and low. I’m moving house so selling on a few of my basses. This is a later model Thunder bass and was made around 1988 it’s a nice red colour and has a few dings and scratches. The trussrod works and the frets are good. It weighs around 3.9kgs. No trades sorry. UK only and pickup preferred. I can send it but would need to source a box or remove the neck to post it. A great value classic bass.

*Dropping this to £700 until payday on Feb 15th whereupon it'll go back to original price. Cost of living biting hard 😞 These are over £1600 new and this one's like new. Go on, you know you want to 😃* Bought this from @paddy109 late last year and am reusing his advert cos my pictures are mostly rubbish, thanks Paddy (great guy)! https://www.basschat.co.uk/topic/467668-sold-2021 lakland-skyline-44-64-custom-pj-ice-blue-metallic-immaculate-condition Have added a couple of mine however that do show the gorgeous sparkle finish. This is a fantastic guitar, immaculately built and does the PJ thing brilliantly. Absolutely no blemishes or even swirling on it, looks like it's hardly been played before me and I've only ever picked it up here and there at home and never gigged it. Problem for me is the nut is too thin otherwise this would not be leaving me. Plus I could do with the cash so no trades. Happy to meet up within a reasonable distance or ship within UK at buyers expense/arrangement.

Gorgeous! Looks familiar, I'm sure one like this has been on before. Was tempted then, & am tempted now, although logic & available space says no... I think the serial number (C2*****) means it's made by Cort, & 1992. Had a few Hohner Pros from the late 80s/early 90s era and they are fantastic instruments. GLWTS!

You two are not helping my withdraw thoughts 🤣😂

Lovely. Fantastic condition for a 25 year old bass! GLWTS.

Mine's like this. Pic blagged from t'interweb 'cos I can't get a decent pic.
