Thanks for posting this 👍 If you can get this on to a stage with your spine in tact, then it doesn’t get much better (IMO), proper earth shattering stuff. The folk-lore about Trace watts is true!!

I believe this amp was the top of the range in the early 80’s. I think this one is an ‘84. It has the legendary GP11 pre-amp. Absolute beast of an amp with bi-amp facility, essentially two AH250’s in one enclosure. The sound is epic, classic Trace. All sliders and knob covers present. Working brilliantly. This is far too heavy and impractical for me. It weighs a lot! I can get quotes for delivery but collection would be best due to the weight. Trial welcomed in Cardiff.

Possibly, send me a PM

Clearing out a few pedals that are not receiving much use recently: 1. Cog CMB01 - A T-16, Mini 66 and Tarkin in one enclosure with order switching for the 66 & Tarkin - SOLD 2. A heavily road worn Boss TU-2, works fine - £25 3. An Ibanez PD7, a nice overdrive this with plenty of options - SOLD All prices include UK delivery.

I’ve not owned this very long, another impulse purchase on my part! Only selling due to GAS for another instrument...

Nice example of a transitional era Fender Jazz in the transparent blonde finish, this has the older style logo but with the 3 bolt neck plate and micro-tilt. This might attract any Marcus fans out there as it really nails that bright, snappy, articulate slap tone. Harmonics jump off this bass and it rings out forever! Currently setup with 40-100’s and a low action. Truss rod turning both ways nicely. It has usual signs of wear and tear consistent with its age, most notable is a slight lacquer chip on the back of the neck. I can’t feel this when playing but it’s worth a mention. Otherwise it’s all original except for replacement bridge saddles (I think) as these appear a bit more shiny, but I’m not sure, perhaps they were preserved when the bridge cover was present. Bridge and pickup cover along with original case are missing. Weight is 5kg as it’s a heavy ash body. It sits nicely on the strap and with a wide strap, it has been fine for me. I will include a generic hard-case in the sale. TRADED Trial welcome in Cardiff.

Here’s my Thumb NT5 from 1992. You don’t see many with the original fitted case like this, I believe most were shipped with a rock bag as standard so this is nice, and very protective! The case weighs a tonne though! Additionally, I replaced the original brass bridge and tail piece with an official Warwick lighter weight equivalent, this shaved some of the weight off it. It weighs 4.75kg now which is below average (I believe) for one of these. The original hardware will of course be included. I’ve not experienced any neck dive with this Thumb, it balances perfectly. The only wear to note is a small patch above the p’up where the thumb rests. Otherwise it’s stunning. It is setup with a super-low action with no fret buzz anywhere. I’m open to offers. Based in Cardiff, UK. Not particularly interested in trades but you never know. My tastes are for more traditional passive basses at the moment.

White & Tort are the best companions!

Looking for a Stingray at half the price? These were built in the same San Luis Obispo factory and present fantastic bang for your buck. Research them online and you’ll see they are well reviewed. It’s a 2EQ active version built in 2004, finished in white with non-original tort guard. The original aluminium effect guard will be included. You don’t seem to see so many of the white variety. It has a few marks, the worst of which I’ve photographed on the rear of the body. It’s otherwise in great shape. It plays and sounds exactly as a Stingray should, nice low action too. Trial / collection from Cardiff is welcomed. Happy to post also. No case but can be well protected for shipping.

I recently got one of these, great basses, wasn’t really any difference between it and a custom shop I used to own. GLWTS.

They’re Jaydee’s SN2000 pickups, same as those in most of their basses.

A Thunderbird had always been on my wish list, I got this one recently when it came up for sale locally. The sound is huge but I just can't get fully comfortable with the ergonomics. According to Mr. John Diggins, less than 10 of these were produced so somewhat rare. I believe the year of production was '84. Mahogany body & neck, Ebony fingerboard. Schaller tuners. When I got this, the bridge was in a bad way, the screws had seized up making adjustments difficult, the bridge was sent to Jaydee and they refurbished it, adding one of the securing screws that was missing which was matched to the others for the correct aesthetic. It's fully operational now. The truss rod turns both ways without issue. It's a great instrument that has been clearly played a lot. It's a relic...full of light scratches, scrapes and dings (difficult to photograph due to the black finish), nothing significant and no neck break! I don't have a case for it but I have plenty of bubble wrap and a suitable box for shipping. UK shipping will be £30 but collection from Cardiff much preferred. I'll consider trades, a Jaydee Roadie would be ideal or a Stingray. Feedback thread here:

2 sets of DR Sunbeams, Nickel 40-95. Put these on my Jazz basses for a change however too light for me. Only a few hours of play on both sets. Cut for a Fender Bass. One set has a box, the other doesn’t. £20 for the pair, posted in the UK.

I recently acquired these in the sale on guitarguitar, bought them cause they were cheap, wore them for 5 mins and realised that whilst they sound excellent, my existing headphones do the job fine for practice. Just looking to get my money back as guitarguitar won’t accept returns on headphones. £55 posted to your UK address.

Happy to ship anywhere however the buyer would have to cover these costs. Only trade I would potentially consider would be an early Warwick Thumb or Dolphin.

This is another great Jazz bass from my collection. I also have a CS '64 jazz bass for sale here and there's not a huge amount between them. It's a limited edition run (or FSR) in Daphne Blue with matching headstock. There are differing accounts online regarding how limited the run was but from what I can ascertain there were likely 50 for the American market and 50 for the European market, as such, they don't come up for sale that often. This one is in near mint condition, it has not been gigged, only home use. The only (very slight) blemishes are where the chrome covers have been attached as the nitro finish is very light. It has numerous case candy and a rather nice cream G&G case. Pics now added! Weight is 4.05 kg Collection and Trial welcome in Cardiff, UK. I have a feedback thread here on BC.

Re-listed, I would like to keep this (and am tempted to) but I'm needing to raise some funds now for a studio-related project. I got this recently from binkybongo from this forum. These images are from the original thread. It's a great sounding, lightweight (4kg) jazz bass, one of the best I've played. Really strong, even tone across the fretboard. It has numerous light scratches which are difficult to see and some dings (pictured). Collection and trial welcome in Cardiff, UK. Happy to discuss shipping options to anywhere. I have a feedback thread here on BC. Cheers. Feedback here:

Lovely looking bass! Another bump for a great seller...

This is a tough decision but here’s my ‘08 CV P bass, I believe this was the first run of the model. Its in excellent condition, a couple of marks on the side of the body and some discolouration where the bridge cover once sat. The pick guard still has the plastic covering on it. This is one of the nicest P basses I’ve ever played and it delivers the classic sound with the TI flats that are currently installed. The original wiring loom has been replaced for KiOGon solderless however I’ll include the original along with the original bridge cover. Collection in Cardiff preferred as I don’t have a case or a box for this bass at present.
