G-bitch

Pm on the way.

Tatty, cheap and musicmanesque. Triple crown.

Love it. If only I'd be forgiven.

Oh man, I had a Geddy Lee jazz years ago and pondered the status neck option (sold it in a fit of GAS anyway), that is loverly, even if I'm not a none-more-black person. @ahpook is this a fender you could like?! 😉

I'd be interested in trying this out to see how it sounds. I'm just getting back into playing after a long hiatus and my mate has politely refused to sell me back my old L2000 so just wondering if this might make a good alternative. Any chance you're in walking distance or a short bus ride from the station?

Pm on the way.

SOLD to a mate of mine that I forgot to offer first refusal to!

SOLD

Great little modelling practise amp with headphone output and a punchy 10" speaker in sealed box. Very light use, but a little dusty. Collection only from Bristol. [attachment=251905:DSCF4055.JPG] [attachment=251906:DSCF4056.JPG]

Cheers. Forgot to mention I'm open to offers or guidance on price if it's way out - really not up to speed on what stuff goes for and am aware that the finish makes it a bit 'marmite'!

Bought from the US quite a few years ago ($250!), but hardly ever used so has been in storage ever since. Hence it's mint, as new condition. Beautiful padded case, very stiff/firm so very well protected, includes padded laptop compartment in outer pocket, padded rucksack straps (genuinely very comfortable, waist strap and chest stabiliser on it), shoulder strap and nice comfy padded handle too. Collection from Bristol preferred but will entertain postage if no interest locally. [attachment=251899:DSC09334.JPG][attachment=251900:DSC09331.JPG]

Oops, forgot photos [attachment=251888:DSCF4059.JPG] [attachment=251889:DSCF4060.JPG]

Well used, believe it was a studio amp for a while (pat test sticker!), powers up just fine (see lights in photo) but the odd scratchy pot last time I gave it a go. No longer have a cab to test this with so recommend bringing one along if you want to test. If it needs posting and doesn't survive, unlikely given how bombproof these are..., then I'll happily refund so that you've got a novel paperweight - how does that sound? No idea of age, 240w into 4 ohms. Bristol collection or postage at cost with preferred carrier.

I ordered this in around 2005 if I remember right, and to my ultimate shame it has never been gigged and has very little playing time. It’s been in a case for most of the time since then and the original G&L hardcase is obviously included in the sale, the neck has been rock solid throughout this, was always careful to find a climate neutral home for this wherever I was living rather than doing anything stupid like leaving it in a loft. In multiple house moves along the way, I’ve managed to lose the original paperwork but I’m hoping it’s fairly obviously legit given the custom options. Speaking of custom options, I believe I specified the older Vintage Narrow "C" neck, 1 ½” nut D shape style like a jazz (I’ve tiny hands), satin finish. Got the pimp-tastic red metal flake finish with matching headstock and got a nice clean maple board with no markers. Only change from the factory spec is the inclusion of Dunlop straplocks. Couple of negatives shown in photos – couple of red paint smudges on end of neck (pick up end), plus a mark on the back of the headstock just under the G string tuner, it’s in the wood under the laquer. Collection preferred from Bristol but if you’re itching and that’s too far to travel, get in touch. PM an email address for full set of photos.

SOLD They the super long scale version so good for extra long scale (up to ~36") 6ers. Regular light gauge .030 .045 .065 .080 .100.130.

Sold to Mr Beneath it All. Nice to know it's going to Wakey - I used to work there!

HOpeless delay - the bass is roundabout 9lbs according to my bathroom scales. Not sure how accurate that is given the relatively low weight but my kitchen scales don't quite stretch that far! The bass is still available; I'm still waiting for a PM/text reply from Beneath It All who was next to express an interest.

OH, and I still haven't managed to weigh it - no scales to had at the moment. Will have that sorted by about 5pm tonight I think.

Okay folks, and particularly Mr Jazz, I've had chance to inspect and take photos - there are a couple of bits which I'd forgotten about or not mentioned, but given the level of interest I've had and that condition is factored into the price (fairly I think), I don't really want to budge on the £650 asking; if only so I can mourn the sale with several pints and a curry with the difference between that and offers... Here's all the negatives: 1. Small headstock chip (2-3mm), on the edge rather than face so doesn't affect that nice body matched bit of quilted maple 2. Small chip in top near controlls (3-4mm), hasn't gone through the top though so it isn't really very noticeable 3. I drilled a new strap hole to improve the balance (did the trick nicely), so there's a redundant strap hole. There's also a small dent on that edge. 4. Minor scratches and tiny dents on the jack socket edge. 5. String marks on the fretboard (see photo, that's the worst of it and it's only on those bottom few frets), this is probably the worst thing about it IMO. Needs a fret dress - I was very heavy handed with this bass, but Mr Shuker would probably do that gratis as he guarantees the fret wire he uses for life. 6. The C string tuner took a knock at some point - you can see the key is poking out a few mm underneath. Amazingly, it still works perfectly, I thought I'd have to replace it when I did it. 7. Aforementioned tiny ding in back of the neck - on further inspection, it's so shallow it's barely noticeable. Anyway, see the pics I've taken. A lot of these are just your regular gigging scars and are not visible without close inspection. Only the need for the fret-dress affects playability -everything else is purely cosmetic. Other things to add: 1. EMG pre-amp thing is 18v. Probably due some fresh batteries by now. 2. That in-case gig bag is sooooo sweet, I want to crap my pants. The offer of including that for £100 is withdrawn so that, when the zombiepocalypse comes, I can abuse myself whilst stroking it in lieu of internet porn. Oh, final note before putting the pics up. This neck is solid as f*** - it's been in storage for the last year without having been played and it's still in tune, still got a lovely medium action, fantastic. Forgot just how nice this neck was to pay; highly recommended for people like me with lady hands.

I've just found some ancient sound clips - recorded direct into the basic sound card of my old PC, no pre, no pedal, just nekkid bass signal without any onboard EQ. Also, a full pic! Again, this is from new so does not represent current condition - will update by Sunday at the latest.
