Again, collection downsizing continues.. This one is rather nice imho Sub 4HH. Mods: Hipshot de-tuner Aquilar OBP-2 pre amp Artec pickups Carbon fibre wrap scratchplate smaller Musicman style bridge The aquilar gives a much more balanced output. No dints or scratches, pretty much perfect. Cost of the hipshot, aguilar and bridge mods etc amount of £200 plus upgrades on this very good looking bass.. All the usuals: Postage: yes at buyers expense, i have the boxes.. Scammers: no get a life you sad little creatures Local pickup or handover possible: I live in the southeast so bear that in mind. Coffee and petrol money might be needed but hey who knows

Now £250! thats as low as it goes My collection downsizing continues... Here is a sterling sub5 in green with the following mods: Retrovibe stinger stingray clone pre amp Series parallel a switching Handmade matte green tinted pearl scratchplate (same template as a standard sr5 plate) Smaller footprint bridge. Shielded. As an aside for the interested reader, there is a route under the plate for a second humbucker in the neck position. Plays great and i have gigged it a few times , never missed a beat and is a nice looking bass for stage. 'bad' points one dint on lower bout two screws where the old 'big plate' bridge was. Its not perfect (reflects in the price) but its different and a nice sounding bass. The series / parallel switching opens up the sound which is an option you don't get on some sr5 even. Routing for a second pickup means the handyman in you can go HH or HS relatively easily. All the usuals: Postage: yes at buyers expense, i have the boxes.. Scammers: no get a life you sad little creatures Local pickup or handover possible: I live in the southeast so bear that in mind. Coffee and petrol money might be needed but hey who knows

interested in any trades??

Here i am selling an Ibanez SRX500. In an orange burst over a quilt top (not sure if its a thin veneer or a photo finish, either way looks great and flips in the light). When I bought this it had been in storage for a while and needed a recommission, a thorough clean and the pre amp was faulty. I have replaced the pre amp with an off the shelf two band, including a more durable jack socket which is a notorious failure point on these. Sound wise its a better option than the original as i find ibanez pre amp a bit hit and miss. Warm lows and without any distortion through to clear slap friendly highs. The bass is in excellent condition and action is low and neck is fast, no fret wear I have cleaned and polished the neck and frets. New set of strings (105/45) on her so nothing to do 'cept play it. Great Xmas present, cheaper than a new Squier etc and definitely a bass for a gigging musician, Tonally very wide ranging from jaco to hard and heavy. These basses take a de-tune setup easily. All in all a very champagne versatile bass for lemonade money. Controls are Volume, blend, treble,bass. Bolt on Neck is double octave (24 frets). Pics available on request

Here I am selling a beautiful pretty damn near perfect G & L JB. Tribute are so well put together i also have an SB-2 and a Kiloton and the quality is consistently excellent. I have added a Guyper 2 band pre amp and this gives an already punchy bass some extra kahunas. Swamp ash body means its a stout beast in the 4.5 kg area (crappy bathroom scales) but hells teeth its a beauty. Nice jazz profile maple over maple and black binding neck. Frets perfect Handsome bass this.. Ask for more pics if interested, i cant get the image size down to the 138kb limit..

Can vouch for the quality of this bass. Beautifully put together.

Made out of the Matsumoko factory if memory serves. Quality is as good as it gets..

Price drop : £400 The sterling by Musicman Ray 4 range is the entry level into the world of Musicman, some of which are now getting out of the range of the working musician. In my opinion their build quality is excellent, fretwork is spot on. As a collector/player/modifier, I change things around on occasion making all my basses gig ready. This one is an example in point Pre-amp: The sub 4 has a spicy pre-amp, too spicy for some and is a common gripe. I have swapped this out for a OBP-2 aguilar pre-amp along with a new 5 way selector and the original was scratchy. Bridge: I do not like the big plate faux old musicman bridge. This has been changed our for the newer style like on the ray34's Hipshot: I love 'em, all of my 4 strings get them. Scratchplate: The blue colour is a tricky colour to get a matching plate for that looks credible. I have wrapped this plain white one using carbon fibre car wrap which look great and is hard wearing and durable. will also come with a blue anodized aluminium plate I made from a original stingray style one. So a ray4HH Aguilar pre amp, updated hardware in next to perfect condition. Whats not to like? 'cept maybe you dont like ray's..lol Usuals: buyer pays shipping and insurance, happy to meet up for a consideration towards petrol and coffee. Visits to Rochester for a tryout is cool too.

The kiloton is a great musicman 'zone' type bass yet passive. The MFD pickup range is as hot as they get and this is no exception. Beautiful trans 'root beer' finish over mahogany, currently not available at andertons, (not sure if it now unavailable permanently..). Smaller body shape (same as the SB-2) makes this good on the shoulders and in the just under 4kg area of weight. I have fitted a hipshot and the dropped D rings lovely on this. This is a nigh on £100 upgrade and with the list price being in the £400 zone, i think £325 is a steal. I can also re-instale the original tuner, and drop to £285. I have a thing for carbon fibre wrap on scratch plates and this is no exception, underneath is a tort plate, but I have added black carbon fibre which looks tasteful imho. No heavy dings or scratches, some very light signs of wear but nothing to cause any concern. Weight using bathroom scales is 3.5Kg This is a lovely instrument but not getting used (due to me switching over to 5 stringers) so a new home is needed. Happy to post at buyers expense, will always ship insured. Happy also to meet up within reason in Kent or M25 with some consideration towards petrol and coffee. EXTRA!!! I can remove the hipshot and drop the price to £275 Will also consider trades

I had a MIJ Geddy for a good few years. Sold it and regretted it ever since. Made at the Matsumoko factory if memory serves whose quality is legendary. GLWTS

Phil Jones stuff is renowned for compact powerhouse dynamics. I use a 8*5 stage cab and its amazing. Here I am selling a 2*5 combo, the Bass cub 100w The Bass Cub II is 100 watts of pure tone in a “shoebox” size package. It is so light, that it can be lifted with one finger! 2*5inch speakers Two independent channels can accept two instruments or one microphone. It also has a stereo input for a Drum machine or iPod/MP3 player. Play along practicing can be accomplished through the two internal speakers or headphone jack. The Bass Cub II’s dimensions are 12”W x 11”D x 7.8”H and it weighs 15.5 lbs. It produces 100 Watts Class D amplification with digital switch-mode power supply. A soft carry bag is included. in 100% perfect condition

The Sterling SB14 has a basswood body that delivers warm tone with great sustain. Like the Music Man model, the smaller body is comfortable and easy to hold during long gigs. It features a Music Man-designed active preamp. The Music Man-designed bridge has thick saddles for stability and precise slotting. Carbon fibre wrap on the scratchplate (easily removable, plain white underneath). Matching headstock. Upgraded pickup to a Nordstrand (now discontinued) with 'ghost coil' to kill hum in single coil mode. The SB14 is an accurate version of the popular Music Man Sterling model. Hence why its called a SB14, Otherwise it would be the Sterling by Sterling by Musicman. Body: Basswood Neck: Maple Fingerboard: Rosewood Pickups: Nordstrand Humbucking with ceramic pole pieces and hum-canceling phantom coil with switching giving series/parallel and 'noiseless'single coil options Preamp: 3-band Active Preamp: Volume, Treble, Mid, Bass Bridge: Music Man designed Tuners: Open Gear No scratches or dints to mention, very nice colour (metallic red) with matching head-stock. Light (just under 9lbs), basically a stingray that's easier on the neck with some extra coil switching on the pickup.
