There were some in the ad but somehow I appear to have deleted them....FFS I'll take some more and post them

For sale is a super condition Reunion Blues Continental Ballistic Gigbag. This is a serious bit of kit and superbly made (very similar to the Mono and Protec hard/soft gig bags. According to the website the gigbag is made with a water-resistant ballistic exterior that surrounds a new, lightweight Flexoskeleton™ protection system of high-density foam and EVA impact panels that offer enough protection to survive a 40-foot drop without so much as a nick or scratch. (They actually tried it. And when the guitar inside emerged unscathed, they did it again just for fun.) Inside this new case, a velvet tuck interior lining, solid-cell neck brace suspension system and thick Softmesh-lined side panels cradle the instrument in a cocoon of scuff-proof luxury. And its roomy exterior pockets, Zero G palm-contoured handle, and hideaway backpack straps are designed for getting around in the real world. Yours for £125 inc. postage.

So my band where I needed a 5 string is no more and I'm struggling with the tight string spacing of this SR5, so sadly it's on the block. It's the new model Stingray Special HH in Aqua Sparkle. It's in immaculate condition, complete with case (the Candy has disappeared somewhere, sorry). It plays brilliantly and sounds fab and weighs in at 9lbs! Im looking for £1,750 plus £25 shipping fully insured but would consider trades for a Fender American Original P Bass in equally good condition plus £300 cash my way. I'd maybe consider a lightweight 4003S with rosewood board too but that's about it. I'll put some more pics up soon but here's a few for your delectation.

I still have a Red one. I think the colour is called Whore Red. If not it should be!

For sale is a gorgeous 1990 Charvel 1B P Bass made in Japan. These are superb instruments and the build quality is everything you'd expect from a Japanese instrument of this vintage. As it's black, it does show a number of marks and dings, but nothing horrendous and all cosmetic. The frets have plenty of life left in them and the truss rod works fine and it has a lovely low action. The headstock tip has a small chip out of the top of the lacquer, but again nothing structural, so don't worry, you still get maximum pointiness! The pickup is original but the wiring loom had to be changed due to a faulty tone pot (the original loom will be included in the sale). It's a reverse P pickup, so it sounds amazingly deep and tight. The cavity cover may be a replacement I think. Everything else is original. I have a number of these basses and they're becoming increasingly difficult to find. Yours for £300 delivered.

My other Charvel has sold, so I'll leave this on for a few days more and then probably take it off if it hasn't gone

Trust me, you wouldn't want them. Really

Thanks Jake. Just checking; this is Pro Bono advice, right?

I'm not a lawyer, granted, but I'm pretty certain these straps can only be used with pointy headstocks. Otherwise you're looking a 10 stretch, personal shower-time with Big Bill and drinking hooch out of a toilet bowl, sorry.

Thanks for the PM's so far. Unfortunately I'm not looking for trades and just to clarify, the purchaser HAS to take the studded leather strap. There's no negotiation in that point I'm afraid.

For sale is a gorgeous 1988 Japanese Charvel 2B active pickup PJ Bass in a lovely metallic blue finish. It's 100% original and considering it's age, is in very good condition. These really were the bees knees in the late-80's/ early-90's and it's amazing to find one as clean as this not covered in hairspray It weighs in at just under 9.5lbs but a decent studded leather strap is supplied (non-negotiable). The electrics work fine but one of the pots is a bit loose and could do with a bit of TLC. It's actually pretty unusual to find these with all the knobs in place for some reason. Build quality is brilliant and it sounds absolutely epic. Yours for £350 plus £20 postage to ship fully insured.

For sale is a super lightweight Jackson Eliminator Bass from the early 90's. Considering it's age it's in excellent condition and 100% original. It has active electronics with treble, bass, pan and volume (one of the knobs is a bit wonky but works fine). The neck is 24 frets and is ridiculously skinny front to back. It's an absolute dream to play and a pretty rare beast. They were considered top of the range for Japanese made Charvel/Jacksons and it's easy to see why given the build quality I'm either selling this one or my Charvel 2B Bass. Whichever one sells first I'll keep the remaining one. It will be supplied with a gigbag and shipped fully insured. Yours for £350 plus £20 postage.
