  1. Someone else selling one of these at crazy low price so pointless listing this right now.
  2. [quote name='LukeFRC' timestamp='1432988388' post='2786807'] was looking through your list of possible P/X ... and you've got a BB1024x in there... I've not got one of them but next post down on the forum is someone selling a BB1204x.... ah I wonder if they would be interested in that lovely gold clover? I asked myself... nope cos that's you too! I'm not sure it is a basschat first but are you selling a bass and asking for the same bass in trade all at the same time? [/quote] If someone wants the Clover and has a 1024x and a chunk of cash, I'd do the deal and (hopefully) sell the 1024x.
  3. Lots of admirers but no buyers just yet.
  4. Some interest but still available
  5. I really love these basses and if I could afford to keep it I would but a recent spate of purchases means this is for sale. I don't think you can really get much more bang for your buck when it comes to 4 string and passive. The pick-ups are LOUD and have loads of tone. I think there's some witchcraft going on because there's no way you should be able to get as much variety as these basses offer given the simple control options: 3-way toggle switch plus volume and tone. If you want classic p-bass thump, it's there in spades and this bass also produces the closest I've got to Geddy Lee's YYZ tone, it really bites and spits when you play with the bridge pick-up. The neck has a very smoothly finish and is somewhere between a J and a P neck in dimensions. All the hardware works as it should and the bass is a more than comfortable weight (I'd guess about 9 to 9.5 lbs). The fit and finish is exceptional. Every bit as good as you could wish for and the bass is well set-up. There is one minor ding on the headstock but aside from that she's pretty much perfect. Any marks in the pictures are just fingerprints or reflections. Looking for £475 delivered in UK with a (very nice and well padded) Yamaha gigbag or £495 with a hard case. Not really looking for trades on this as cash is king, but maybe a MarkBass NY121 cab plus cash or some active PA bass bins. That being said, never say never.

    SOLD

    Apologies BC. This was sold a while ago, forgot to update the ad.
  7. This guy does it about 30 seconds nito the vid https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2zHzNC38U8s the inside of the bit he takes off is what you probably need to clean.
  8. Do you have one of those sucker type phone holders in your car? If so, sucker it onto the screen and gently pull. The "glass" is held on by magnets around the edges. Once you've go it off, I imagine you'll be able to easily clean the inside of the glass with a bit of Mr Muscle window cleaner. That is almost certainly where the tinge is hiding. I had a similar thing happen on my iMac. There are videos on youtube showing the fix.
  9. [quote name='mrtcat' timestamp='1432715704' post='2784119'] Just out of curiosity would you consider a USA 75 RI Jazz as a trade? I'm not 100% sure I want to swap yet but for my function band the clover would be really versatile. [/quote] Thanks but had a couple of those and lovely though they are, not really for me.
  10. Few more pics... [attachment=188897:IMG_0655.JPG] [attachment=188898:IMG_0658.JPG] [attachment=188899:IMG_0660.JPG]

[color=#141823][font=helvetica, arial,]Clover Apeiron H.5 in super rare gold sparkle finish.[/font][/color] [s][color=#141823][font=helvetica, arial,]A bit unsure about selling this as it's a stunning bass to play and to look at, but there's stuff on my wish list which needs funding.[/font][/color][/s] [color=#141823][font=helvetica, arial,]Been doing some shopping so could do with selling this. Price dropped to £900.[/font][/color] [attachment=188770:clover-02.jpg][attachment=188769:clover-01.jpg] [color=#141823][font=helvetica, arial,]The bass features the Delano Hybrid pick-up and EQ system. You get a jazz pick-up in the neck and a jazz/MusicMan hydbrid pick-up at the bridge. The rear coil of the MMan is actually a full on jazz bass style pick-up.[/font][/color] [color=#141823][font=helvetica, arial,]With the switch in MMan mode The controls are Vol - Blend - Bass - Treble and both sets of pole pieces on the bridge pick-up are engaged. With the blend fully to the bridge, you get classic StingRay tone which you can then shape with the active bass and treble eq. If you want to blend in the neck pick-up for some added thump, you can do that too.[/font][/color] [color=#141823][font=helvetica, arial,]With the switch in Jazz mode, you get the rear pole pieces on the bridge pick-up enabled and the bass becomes a traditional passive jazz bass as the bass and treble of the onboard eq are disabled and the treble pot becomes a traditional passive tone pot.[/font][/color] [color=#141823][font=helvetica, arial,]Aside from all that, it plays beautifully. A little less of a monster than a typical Fender 5 string jazz, the body sits comfortably and the neck has a very comfortable shallow profile and quite a flat radius. I've got very small hands and find it very easy to play. The action is low but could go lots lower to.[/font][/color] [color=#141823]It's an awesome bass which sounds and plays every bit as great as it looks.

  12. Swapped basses with Tim. Very nice guy to deal with, would cheerfully do so again.
  13. Not yet. Still for sale. Chris, PMd you on Friday but not heard anything from you. Pete
  14. This is a lovely bass, any buyer will not be disappointed. Pete
  15. These came from a Fender Classic Series 70s Jazz Bass I have which now sports US custom shop 60s reissue pickups and wiring. Will make a nice little upgrade or reasonably priced addition to a build. £40 for the pick-ups, £15 for the controls or both for £50. Includes P&P in the UK. PM me or call/txt on 07515 929935.

    Traded

    An old flame has come available and I need to raise some funds so looking to sell this monster. [attachment=186054:fender_70s_jazz_black.jpg] It's a Fender Classic Series 70s Jazz Bass in black with rosewood board and the Fender info page is here [url="http://intl.fender.com/en-GB/series/classic/70s-jazz-bass-rosewood-fingerboard-black-3-ply-bwb-pickguard/"]http://intl.fender.c...-bwb-pickguard/[/url] What makes this bass a little extra special is that instead of the standard Mex pickups and electronics, this bad boy is sporting a set of Fender Custom Shop 60s pick-ups along with the Fender vintage wiring kit, including CTS pots; cloth wiring and orange drop capacitor. It sounds epic and has far more grunt than either US 75 reissue I've owned. There's real bark and bite in the tone whenever the bridge pick-up is favoured and the neck pick-up has a lovely warmth. Both pick-ups together and the tone rolled off a smidge is my weapon of choice but it does so much more. The neck is really comfy to play with what I would describe as a medium action (how meaningful that is to anyone I don't know!), and I haven't made any major changes to the set-up (raised the E string a little) but I think, with a little tinkering, the action could go a lot lower. I find playing slap style on this more comfortable than on any other bass I've owned and it sounds terrific. I'm looking for £575 ono and that price includes an almost brand new hard case plus the original pick-ups and pots. Prefer collection but P&P in UK possible for £25. Not really looking for trades but I suppose if you have a Yamaha 1024x, 1025x or a Lakland 4/5 I could always be tempted. PM me or give me a call/tx on 07515 929935. Pete
  17. Assuming its correct, this may help... [url="https://japanfender.wordpress.com/materials/color-chart/"]https://japanfender....ls/color-chart/[/url] Is it like the last colour YWH? Also, it wouldn't take much for Olympic White to go from creamy to custardy.
