purchased recently on here from @hiram.k.hackenbacker Made me realise how much I love a Jazz bass so having just sold a bunch of stuff off, I’ve upgraded to a Custom Shop with a chunkier neck and bigger frets. Great condition (well, as far as it can be for a roadworn) Virtually no fret wear, everything works as it should. New set of rotosound 45-105 roundwounds. Comes with a fender gig bag and the hangtags. Great weight at 8.6lbs (3.9KG) Collection welcome. Or delivery will be via Overland Express fully tracked and insured. also on eBay if that helps with purchasing options. not looking for trades except a Ampeg PF 50

Not owning an ACG was a place I wasn’t comfortable with, knowing Alan as I do and having owned quite a few over many years. So I was chuffed when I acquired this lovely instrument. However, a fractured spine over 2 years ago and ongoing back pain with an osteoporosis diagnosis has meant that only lightweight basses are doable. On Thursday I’ll take some current photos (as well as getting an accurate weight). Please see photos on later post. A beautiful instrument in great condition, cocobolo top, lovely maple fingerboard with Luminay dots (and UV torch). The electronics are an East Uni Pre with passive and a passive tone control. 35” scale gives an immense B string, the best I’ve played. There is a blemish on the far end of the face of the headstock. It may be from a tuner?? It was there when I bought the bass and it’s almost impossible to see. If anyone would like to check this bass out that would be most welcome. Peter

Sterling (by musicman) stingray short scale bass. Black. Maple neck. Lightweight at 7 lbs. 30 inch scale, VGC no dinks. Little used. Passive, neodymium humbucker. Push/pull volume boost. 3 way pickup control, parallel, single coil, series. Hipshot lightweight tuners. Original tuners included, if wanted. Cash, in person only, Bristol area, or will agree to meet somewhere near you...

I bought this bass a couple of years ago and had it converted to a 5 string. I absolutely adore it in every way possible, but finances are dire at the moment, so this &/or my Gibson non-reverse thunderbird 5 string conversion have to go It comes with all the case candy, official Rickenbacker hard case etc etc. There's hardly a mark on it except for behind one of the the tuners where I've touched it up. I can fit the original Schaller 3d bridge and the brass nut it came with as well as putting a dowel in the tuner hole and painting this (though the paint wont look like it did from the factory) if you want it converted back to a 4 stringer. I'll be devestated that both of these basses have to go, but needs must. PS. The sticker easily comes off PPS. I might be able to deliver/meet up 1/2 way etc. etc. to save on postage/courier issues

SOLD ELSEWHERE I bought this bass not too long ago in the hope that it would be a suitable proxy for my first proper bass, the original first series Spector Legend. It turns out that I still want my actual bass back despite this being a seriously good bass (actually quite a lot better). Therefore, after much soul-searching and inner contemplation I have decided to sell this one. This is the upgrade NS Pulse II bass with some seriously good features. The bass is truly in excellent condition. The roasted maple neck is particularly delightful with a lovely satin finish. Weight is a very manageable at just under 8lbs (3.6kgs). The bass comes with a good quality gig bag. Please believe me when I say that these are fantastic basses and that this is a very reluctant sale. £750 OVNO. Collection or some convenient meeting place preferred but can offer postage if necessary; we can discuss this option. Trades: I'm looking for a nice P bass (cash either way). My preference is rosewood board, vintage sized frets, 9lbs or less in weight ideally (but just over 9lbs is not a deal breaker). The specs are as follows: Neck · Bolt on 3pc Roasted Maple neck · Macassar Ebony finger board 34” scale length, with 24frets · Luminlay side dots and Spector logo at 12th fret · Width at nut: 1.57" Body · The original NS curved and carved Swamp Ash body with quilted maple top · Black cherry matt finish Hardware · Black · Bridge: Spector locking high-mass bridge, with intonation screws · String spacing at bridge: 0.75" (19mm) Pickups and electronics · Neck pickup (active): EMG P · Bridge pickup (active): EMG J · Preamp: Spector TonePump Jnr. 2-band EQ · Controls: Pickup volume, blend, treble and bass EQ If you have any questions at all, or require additional pictures of any details please ask away and I give as comprehensive an answer as I am able! These pics were taken before the post-it note situation and I will re-take these asap to confirm this. All my sales have had pics taken against this very piece of wall/floor if that offers any re-assurance.

A used but not abused Miura M2 Compressor. The only reason I’m selling it is the foot print is too large. Miura Guitars USA is now releasing its own original compressor/limitters. Such famous musicians as Ric Fierabracci and Robert Pagliari (OHM) agree that these pedals are very clear and do not squeeze the tone. “This compressor doesn’t lower the quality or volume of the tone, and also keeps the low end clear,” says Robert. “Both high and low ends are always stable, plus it has great response, so you never realize it is being compressed. Overall the tone is phenomenal!” Because they are handmade by Hiro Miura himself. Features By using an analog photo-coupler for the compression element, which is used in the medical field, the M2 Compressor gain motion control uses a high speed operational amplifier. This makes it possible to create a crispy compression sound. Attack control is installed for flexible adjustments. Simply adjust the attack time to match your instrument and playing style. This will attain an even and smooth compression sound. For the volume amplifier circuit, only one operating amplifier is used for high quality sound, high drive force, and low offset voltage. The circuit itself is very simple, Only the best materials are selected for each component and tested for the best resistance and capacity. By adding one, strictly selected coupling capacitor, which is unnecessary for an DC amplifier configuration, the M2 compressor gained the ability to perform sounds with viscosity and warmth. We have also used several high end wiring materials to have the sound hold it’s thickness. Power source is DC-9V. The built in DC converter automatically converts the operating voltage to ±15V. This is why this compressor has high headroom, resulting in a wide range of dynamics and signal amplification without distortion. The high capacity DC converter allows the power source to use it’s energy to vigorously push the low-tone sounds. True bypass is not used for the bypass circuit. The bypass method used for the M2 compressor gives high quality sound while holding down the switching noise by matching the control of the input/output impedance and the on/off circuit. All handmade in the USA PayPal or direct bank transfer plus £ 8.00 p & p Trade wise I’m after a Line HX One

Hi folks, I picked this up a little while ago, on a bit of a whim to be honest, and it has mostly sat in its box glaring at me. The watch seems to be pretty decent quality and comes with a couple of spare NATO straps alongside the original fit Army Green item for different looks (black and dark blue with a red stripe). All working and in good order. Not a mark on it. £50 posted Special Delivery to you (UK). Here's the link to the Lakland website and a few photos too: https://www.lakland.com/product/lakland-watch/

The time has come to move on my beautiful 2021 US Spector gloss finished Forte 4 in Nightshade. I have loved this bass, and my Spector adventures, but I’m way too scared to use it in anger, so it has mainly remained in the case. This is in brand new condition and a real case queen. It even has the clear film still on the back plate. There is not a single mark on it, and the case is equally as clean. The tools come in a beautiful leather carry pouch, and the COA has been kept in an envelope. This bass is stunning. It has that punch, that growl when pushed, and a beautiful balanced sound across all strings. The combination of the EMGX pickups and the Aguilar OBP-2 pre amp is a winning combination for me. The action is set very low, the neck is super straight, and weighs around 7lbs so, very light. It comes with a new set of LaBella stainless steel 45-105 strings. Everything about this bass is perfect. So why am I selling? I’m doing a build in my studio, and I need to get some extra funds in to complete said build, plus I’m too scared to use it in anger as already mentioned. As I’m not a collector, I hate instruments sitting around doing nothing when the money in them will be of use. A new Czech Spector CST bass is selling for £2600, and if you can get a US built, gloss finish Forte, you won’t see much change from £4000, so at this price, my bass is a real steal. You will get a custom US bass for less than Czech CST prices. Happy to deliver at buyers expense, but would prefer collection for obvious reasons. Happy to also meet within a reasonable distance of Cardiff. Any questions, please ask. Cash on collection or bank transfer, only. No PayPal. Cheers 🌟 PS The price is firm. If this doesn’t sell, I will put it up for commission sale which means you would buy this bass for more that I’m selling it here.
