I’m having a big clear-out, so up for grabs is my Cort Elrick NJS5 in Piano Black. SOLD.

I’m having a big clear-out, so up for grabs is my Status Streamline 5-string. NOW SOLD

I’m having a big clear-out, so up for grabs is my Status S2 Classic 5-string, in pristine condition. I bought it last year from the original owner, who received it from Status just as the pandemic started, and thinking he wasn't going to get out to play it, put it straight into storage, so it’s pretty much factory-fresh. As lovely as it is, I just find myself gravitating back to my extra-long scale Laklands, so I’ve decided to move it on. As you may know, although Status are now back in limited production, Rob isn’t working with carbon graphite anymore, and these basses are unlikely to ever be made again, so they’re only going to become rarer and more collectible. Mahogany wings, Walnut tone block, Flame Maple top, bolt-on neck fitted with blue neck-edge LEDs, complete with a Status-branded Hiscox case and all the original paperwork. Collection is preferred from near Woking in Surrey (GU23), but I can ship within the UK for £30 at the buyer's risk. £2500. Sorry, no trades please. ** OFF FOR COMMISSION SALE ELSEWHERE VERY SOON IF THERE ARE NO TAKERS, SO IF YOU'RE INTERESTED, GET IN TOUCH !! **

I’m having a big clear-out, so up for grabs is one of Martin Peterson’s beautiful hand-made creations, a Sei Jazz 5-string. I picked it up on here earlier this year, and as lovely as it is, I just find myself gravitating back to my extra-long scale Laklands, so I’ve decided to move it on. NOW SOLD

Sorry! Added to specs above.

Love the finish! GLWTS.

For sale is a Music Man Stingray 5 30th Anniversary model, this particular example made in January 2018. I got it from a shop in the States earlier this year, and it's a truly fabulous bass, but I find myself gravitating back towards my old Laklands again, so rather than leaving it languishing in the house, I thought it would be better that I move it on so someone else can enjoy it. The roasted maple neck on this one is especially dark and chocolatey, and looks fabulous with the cream binding, with beautiful striping on the back of the neck. It's had very little use, and apart from some faint swirling on the scratchplate below the strings, it's completely unmarked. The neck is sleek and fast, the action low and very easy to play. It's no heavyweight at a very svelte 4.3kg. Comes complete with an MM hardcase, also in excellent condition. For the story behind this model, have a look here: https://www.music-man.com/instruments/basses/30th-anniversary-stingray-5 Collection preferred (I'm 10 minutes from junction 10 of the M25) but I will ship, at the buyer's cost and risk. Sorry, but no trade offers please. NOW SOLD.

For sale is a USA-made G&L CLF L-2500 Series 750 bass. NOW SOLD.

I'm tentatively offering for sale my Canadian-made Lee Sklar Signature in Gun Metal finish. If you're reading this you probably know about the dual density body, mandolin frets etc., but all the build info is available on the Dingwall website here: https://dingwallguitars.com/bass/lee-sklar-signature/ NOW SOLD.

Yes, Martin also reshaped the slab body with a 'belly' cut, the top forearm edge rolled off, and carving the back of the body near the neck joint, which must have knocked at least a pound off the overall weight! It's a lovely thing. GLWTS.

I've only played 5's for the last 30-odd years, and the one 4 string I do own hangs on the wall just to remind me how long I've been involved in this lark, so why do I keep coming back to look at this? I had a BB1100s and an SC1200 back in the day, and they were so well made, and so easy to play, that must be it. And I concur - if it's been played a lot, that's usually a good sign of a great bass. Very nice playing by the way. I'm sure Freddie would approve. GLWTS.

For sale is my GRBass One 800 amp. Lightweight, really flexible EQ, bags of power, plus the switchable built-in LED tuner/light show! Excellent condition, boxed with printout of instructions. NOW SOLD.

A bit of background on this bass can be found in the thread below. It really is a lovely thing. GLWTS.
