That's a good enough excuse for a new bass as any 😄

2 P bass pickguards - 3-ply mint and 1-ply matte black. Both unused. The mint one has some light surface marks due to storage. £10 each posted

This is a lightweight (1.7kg) Squier P body circa 2000. I once had it on a bitsa fretless P bass a long time ago. Eventually I stripped off all the thick poly with a heat gun (and discovered that it is an alder 4 piece body). I sanded it smooth and refinished it in black nitro over white as at the time I was going for a Scott Thunes look-a-like P ☺️ Although it's wasn't a pro finish, it was good enough for me. I did the refin at least 10 years ago and it has lived in my bits drawer under my bed eversince, where it has picked up some unintentional relicing from my occasional rummaging. I've kept it around solely because when it was a fretless that I gigged with, the whole bass was so resonant, acoustically loud, and nicely lightweight. A good one. I had plans to build it up again but I can't see that happening now. It would be great for those who like the relic thing and if not, it would be easy enough to refin it in whatever colour suits you, as it would take fresh nitro over the top of what I've done with minimal prep. £45 posted

I bought this from China via ebay but the bitsa project I was planning to put together went on indefinite hold when I bought a new P. It cost me around £120 all in. The neck looks really nice and well made. Smells good too! 😄 It's actually darker in real life with a pleasing satin sheen to it. The flame looks nicer and richer too. Crappy phone camera I'm afraid. £80 posted

Set of 4 unused Hipshot licenced Ultralites (Fender fit). Great way to cure neck dive. £65 posted
