    This is my bitsa; Fender AVRI 62 neck, Fender MIJ P Bass body refinished in sonic blue nitro, a Creamery pickup, and a mix of Gotoh, Hosco, and Fender hardware. It's very light, coming in at 3-point-nine-something kg.

    Nope, just the single speaker

    Not wishing to derail the thread further, but I put a Hosco bridge on a Sonic Blue 60s CV P and 4 of the holes required filling and redrilling. I've yet to find a direct drop in for the Chinese CV bridges.

    Pictures of the case as requested. I'm not sure what constitutes a regular Squier, but these were made in the same factory as the original Chinese Classic Vibe range, so is of a similar standard. It's modelled on Freeman's own 70s P Bass and has a hotter pickup than the Classic Vibes had, as well as a separate maple finger board (no skunk stripe).

    Those tuners wouldn't have been used in 62, they'd still have been reverse gear tuners with a different shape baseplate

    I've been up in the loft and discovered that I've got the box it was shipped to me in, so postage is available.

    2011 Squier Matt Freeman Precision Bass in black. Bought from @casapete at the tail end of last year after having been looking for one for a while, but I'm not gelling with it. It's a little heavier than my other basses at 4.4kg which is part of the reason. It's all original and in very good condition; there are a few minor dings and some buckle marks on the rear which haven't broken the finish. Comes with a semi-hard case, and can post if required.

    Very cool

    I know Schaller BMLs are straight drop-ins for the Chinese CVs, though I'm not sure if the screw hole positions are different on the Indonesian ones. https://www.gak.co.uk/en/schaller-bass-machine-head-bml-4l/955224

    Same. Rare as rocking horse jobby. I've wanted one for years but have never seen one for sale up near me.

    Mine is just a change of colour scheme. I'd booked it in a while back but the work will be done and paid for in March when the guy doing it has availability.
  12. Jono Bolton
    I'm getting a bass refinished in March; is that allowed?

    Many thanks must go to Pete who saw my Wanted ad looking for a Squier Matt Freeman P Bass and got in touch. He was tremendous to deal with, organised the packaging and drop off very quickly, and was even willing to perform some last minute modifications to the box when we realised that it was too long and over the limits. He chucked in a strap, tuner, and case that he'd received with the bass, and all for a great price too. A true BC hero.

    Ashdown ABM EVO III 500W head. 15th Anniversary model so dates from 2012. This is the second time I've bought an ABM head with the view of switching to a head a cab setup before realising that I really don't need it at the moment and my combo is sufficient. There's a scuff/scratch on the front but in good condition otherwise. Comes with a footswitch for valve, EQ, compression, and sub-octave. Can ship if required or can be collected from Glasgow.

    Swapped the Fender Classic 50s neck for a 62RI one as I felt the rosewood fitted the colour scheme better than the maple. I've got a mint green pickguard from BC favourite earlpilanz on it just now but ideally I'd like a tortoiseshell one; I just haven't been able to find one that matches the image I have in my head.
