fretmeister

Selling my PRS to fund something else. This is an S2 - not to be confused with the cheaper SE range. I am the first owner - I bought it from Peach in November 2020 with a view to doing a load of recording. Then in December 2020 I ruptured a tendon in my right hand that only healed this Christmas so it hasn't had a lot of use and has never been out of the house. It was tuned B standard but is now back to E standard. The little brass thing in the trem cavity is called a FU Trem Stopper. It's a simple device that is just a brass bracket with a screw and a nut to stop the screw from moving upwards. These are a frankly stupid £25! (also from Peach). It only stops up bends. I found it very useful for re-tuning to dropped tunings without needing to retune every other string or adjust the springs. It is easily removable as it's held on with 2 screws. It has 2 humbuckers with coil taps with a push/pull tone control. The cavity cover and screws will be refitted before it is sold. The neck is the Pattern Regular profile (the 2022 models are now Pattern Thin). It's very comfy indeed. It comes with the gig bag that came with it, and the trem arm. It's as well built as expected for a PRS. The fretwork is excellent and it stays in tune the way a Gibson can only dream about! It's currently strung with Elixir Optiwebs. I'm only selling because I'm a bassist and now that everyone is back at work I'm not really playing much guitar and when I do I've got a strat I've had for nearly 20 years. I'm not looking for any trades unless you've got a Sandberg Lionel that is under 7.5lb I'm looking for £675 or near offer. Collection from Northants please. I don't have a guitar amp anymore so if you want to try it out plugged in, the best I can offer is a Roland Bass Cube on the "Bassman" setting for an almost Fender type tone. Or you can bring your own. Or bring a modeller to plug into the aux socket. Whatever is easiest for you. thanks.

I am looking for trades for Shortscale basses only. Ideally a Sandberg Lionel - in a standard colour (I can't afford an aged one), maybe with some cash from me depending on spec (Removed the Mustang as a trade. Can't be dealing with neck dive) But whatever the trade is it MUST weigh under 7.5lb / 3.4kg. No exceptions I'm afraid. Lower would be even better. So trades will have to be in person and I will bring my scales! This is a Fender American Special Precision. It dates from 2013. The Specials have a slightly thinner body leading to a lower weight and the neck is also a bit thinner front to back compared to a modern P. The Specials also had more basic tuning heads and a BBOT bridge. Overall it is in pretty good condition but there are some little dings and marks that I have tried to photograph. Nothing that has gone through the paint so I'm sure it could be T-cut out if you like that sort of thing. Nothing visible unless you are really close up. It had previously had some Hipshot Ultralites fitted but they have now been removed and the bass is back to stock. For each tuner there is an extra hole on the back of the headstock that was used for mounting the Hipshots but they are hidden by the rest of the stock tuner. With 1 exception... Next to the E string tuner there is a tiny little hole on the front. Maybe 1.5mm You guessed it - when I installed the Hipshots the drill slipped and came through the front. I am sure that a toothpick glued in and sanded down would make it invisible, but as I'm not a carpenter I've left it as is. It currently has a nice low action and is easy to play. It has the "Greasebucket" tone circuit. Whatever that actually is. It's just a Vol and Tone to me! It is currently strung with Thomastik Ti Flats that are nicely settled in. Video with flats (Helix audio) Video with roundwounds (iPhone only) I am only looking for trades for a Lionel or a straight sale. I'm in Northants just off the A5 a few miles north of Towcester. ta. ***SOLD AND GONE***
