ACG J-Type 5 So the dreaded Carpel Tunnel syndrome appears to have got the better of me and I’ve had to reluctantly admit that a full scale bass is becoming just too painful to play for any length of time. As a consequence I’m devastated to have to offer my wonderful ACG J-Type 5 string bass up for sale. It is pretty much unmarked apart from 1 slight mark on the body near the upper horn which is only visible if you hold it up to the light at a certain angle. It’s strung with relatively recent Ernie Ball Cobalt flats, 45-130 and combined with the John East Uni Pre 4K circuit there’s a plethora of usable tones available. I bought it off here in 2021 and discovered there was a problem with the pre-amp cutting out so for peace of mind I bought a new Uni - Pre 4K from John East and has been perfect ever since. Specs Below…. Top Wood Swamp Ash Body Wood: Swamp Ash Body Finish: Satin Lacquer Neck Wood: 3 piece Maple. Finger Board: Rocklite Radious: Flat Scale: 34′′ Neck Finish: Satin Lacquer Pickups: 2 x ACG SB70 Vintage wound Alnico single coils. Pre-amp: East Uni-Pre 4K • Hardware: Hipshot Type B bridge, Gotoh GB350 Resolite tuners, I will provide a splendid plush leatherette gig bag and would be happy to deliver or meet half way within reason but would prefer the potential buyer to collect from Swindon where it can be viewed and tried out. I could be temped for a trade with something medium scale but would prefer a straight sale as I have my eye on @merton’s medium scale ACG 😉 Price is £1150- 6 replies

It must be for a headless bass - a standard 34" Jazz bass doesn't quite fit. I remember buying it here a few years ago, realising it didn't fit my bass and forgot all about it! Mind you, if I paid all that money for a headless Status, I would invest in a better bag than this!! will post for 3 quid.... -
Status Graphite branded gig bag. Bit flimsy but offers some protection. All zips and straps in working order... £15 plus postage or collect from Swindon

Anyone else never heard of this band from the 70's? Can't imagine why they never gained a higher profile, some very talented ladies .... I'm looking forward to doing some more research although a google search might reveal some dubious results given the name!! Enjoy

I have one I am about to put up for sale, it's been my back up and never been used in anger! I am gradually selling all my gear as I am no longer gigging. PM for a good price!!

Bringing this along......

Sad to say I am selling this pro spec bass rig as I am no longer gigging. I bought the combo before the lockdown and as we know gigs stopped happening during that period and it was only used for one live stream and some home practice. Since then I've done a handful of gigs in small theatres with in house PA so it's only been used for monitoring and never broke a sweat. I bought the extension cab "just in case!" and it's never been used. I've now developed arthritis and it's a bit over the top for the odd blues jam I am still able to do. The combo is quite tiny but it packs a serious punch suitable for most venues and when combined with the extension cab, would be able to fill any room. Both items are protected by Eich branded fitted covers. Sound is pretty transparent, and there's an effects loop to enable the user to add their effects of choice. Aux input, headphone jack and tuner jack as standard and both items have a tilt back facility to enable you to direct the sound upwards for better monitoring. These can realistically be described in "as new" condition and at Thomann prices for the combo, speaker and covers there is a saving of nearly 600 quid so effectively you're getting a free cab! I could pack these up for postage but I would ask the buyer to organise shipping at their risk, alternatively I could do a "meet halfway" arrangement depending on distance and time considerations or collect in person from Swindon Price is ono.

If you can wait until October, take a day out and head down the M5 to the Southwest Bass Bash, there will be all manner of 5 string instruments for you to try out. There's a thread on here somewhere from last years event which should give an idea what to expect. Other bashes are probably available, maybe even a midlands one. You won't find a better showroom!

This was fitted to a bass I bought on here, which unbeknown to me, suffered from very occasional loss of volume and crackling. Not willing to risk issues at impending gigs, I bought a replacement from Mr East, as I was really impressed with the tonal quality. I subsequently had the unit checked by my local amp tech who cold find nothing wrong apart from perhaps a loose connection which he corrected. So now I have this surplus to requirements pre-amp which should be in perfect working order! I wouldn't sell it on without full disclosure I think £60 + postage a fair price given there may be a risk...... (No knobs I'm afraid) -
Something like this might work............ Ikea

Just sold Mike a set of strings, immediate payment and quickly responds to messages. I’d have no hesitation in dealing with him again in the future. One of the good guys!!
-
These were my spare set for a recently sold bass, so no longer required. Brand new in sealed bag. Big saving at £43 inc !st Class Postage to UK. -
Yep! Just done it 😋 I no longer feel like I'm gonna dislocate my thumb when I disconnect the wireless bug thingy! Thanks for you suggestion! 👍
