Apparently they’re 27% more pointy than a Precision.

I always used the line, “We’ve had some requests…. But we’re going to carry on playing anyway.”

It bugs me when someone's trying to sell something and they say, "this bit's broken but it's really cheap and easy to fix!"... why didn't you do it yourself then?
-
What's the weight?

I’ve got 43rd Julember. Fingers crossed!

Hi I'm Chesney Hawkes, I hope you're ready for some new songs tonight!

"Right before we start tonight, we have an extra bonus for you. Our bass player is going to talk through all the gear he'll be using for tonight's show. This shouldn't take more than 20 minutes, 30 tops."

Flats are going to save the planet... it's true!

Why don’t you rent some out? That’s quite a popular business so I believe. -

Good point, but then it's a well known fact that suspension bridges are built using recycled roundwounds, so if everyone used flats we wouldn't have any suspension bridges. -
If you don’t play flats then you’re just limiting yourself to sharps and naturals.

Less rubbish than his usual stuff...and some good news

“only difference here from a standard jazzbass wiring is that this has a single tone common to both” (pickups). erm… both my jazzbasses must be non-standard then. Crikey. -
Doesn't say exactly what kind of tone foam he uses. Steer clear.

Finally, a job I’d be good at.
-
Encore / Squier?
-
More importantly, what provenance do they have?
-
Crikey that was quick. Now Andy's simultaneously laughing all the way to the bank and kicking himself for not asking for £25k.

Speaking as someone with a weakness for vintage basses, all I can say is thank God I'm not a guitarist if that's how much they cost.

Sorry, no photos yet because it’s currently in my in-laws’ garage; extricating it would entail: * Having to have a conversation with my in-laws * Being reminded about all the other stuff we’ve still got at their place and asked when I’m going to take all of that away * Fixing their wifi / TV / email / printer * Making sympathetic noises about the size of their gas bill * Finding something else on which to dump a pile of car engine parts So, it’s something I’m psyching myself up for. Anyhoo, it’s probably about 25 years old, something like that. Has had very little use and still works perfectly. Ported 1x15”, single jack socket on back. I fitted castors on the bottom so it’s nice and portable (ish). Specs from datasheet: 400w / 4 Ohm, 68.3h x 62.2w x 43.8d cm excluding castors, 70lbs. No Peavey badge on it because I took it off; partly because I didn’t want anyone to know it was a Peavey (I was a gear snob well before I could afford to be) and partly because it was an accident waiting to happen. To be fair, it did come in handy for self defence once when we played at a martial arts club and things got out of hand... but I digress. Also for sale are my Hartke HA7000 amp (£150) and Peavey 210TX cab (£80). Just want the lot gone so make me an offer, happy to sell the whole rig for £300. I should point out I'm only reasonably confident it's a 115BX. It certainly looks like one, I'm very confident it's the Scorpion rather than the Black Widow speaker. Here’s an artist’s impression of it in use:

I've just decided to have a clear out to part fund buying a nice little Barefaced two ten. This should just about cover the postage. It's an old thing as you can see and has been well used, but has never let me down. Specs according to the datasheet: 350w / 4 Ohms 42.5h x 62.2w x 43.8d cm 58lbs One metal corner is missing, the fluffy material they used to cover it is moulting not unlike a beloved old dog, and I took the Peavey badge off because it was going to have someone's eye out. How anyone can resist is beyond me. Also for sale are my Peavey 115BX and Hartke HA7000, if you're after a cheap loud rig.

Part of my clear out, I figured why do I need one of these when I’ve got an original Mutron III on my pedal board? Because, as it turns out having just had a play with it, it's a really nice piece of kit. Great condition, the internal duck is still alive and well and quacks and burps quite happily when you stick a jack plug up it. Comes with proper UK power supply, copy of instructions, and stupid wooden box made to be big enough for the pedal to rattle around in but not quite big enough to fit the power supply in as well. Everything works as it should, no Velcro on the bottom, very good condition generally apart from a bit of corrosion along the front edge. Happy to post of course.

It's high time I had a clear out and so first up is my old Hartke HA7000, which I've had for probably about 25 years. Basically it's two HA3500s in one (checks maths and nods) with a crossover. It works really nicely bi-amped with my rig comprising a 2 x10" and 1 x 15" cab and equally happy with just the 2x10" for smaller gigs. Everything works on it, it's in a rackmount case (which is knackered to be fair) but I've still got all the edges, corners and feet should you want to take it out of the rack. Comes with the instructions as well! I've had a quick look and can't find any others for sale so it's hard to put a price on it. I'd say it's a lot of amp for the money and it's in great shape so I think £150 is fair but I'm open to offers and would definitely consider accepting more if pushed. Happy to discuss shipping options if required but collection preferred. I also have a couple of old cabs which I'll be putting up for sale too at some point, a Peavey 210TX and a Peavey 115 so keep an eye out if you want a cheap loud rig!

There was a ‘78 Antigua Jazz on there recently for £3k, apparently it had been in its case for 35 years and looked pretty unmarked. I didn’t even realise I absolutely had to have it until it was too late.

Sooo, definitely not a bargain but, perhaps not a terrible price for a decent ‘71P?
