Thanks for the nice comments. Regarding the chi sonics there is a push pull pot for single coil (think fat biting jazz) or humbucking ( think guild / hagstrom) Can't compare to the lulls as I don't have one, yet... The changes on the bass are the pots, wiring, pickups, jack, pick guard, tuners. The bridge is original. The finish is original, poly I think except for the headstock face which I resprayed and added a Gibson truss rod cover. Neck width and weight I'll need to check and get back to you but it feels pretty standard weight for a TBird. The neck is a bit thicker at the nut than a standard bird tho. Think more like a 70s one than current.

Selling my NR thunderbird Deluxe. This was a prototype deluxe version with the following upgrades from the BaCH originals. It is the only one of it's kind. Below is the info from the BaCH distributor. [indent] [indent] "it is a one-off bass. I had planned to make a whole series together with a Dutch associate who is in touch with Hanson. We selected a standard TH-1 bass from BaCH out of a whole batch they sent us. The one with the best looking grain and attention to detail, made it to be this first BaCHbird Deluxe. We replaced the entire (cheap ass) wiring with clothwire, orange drop capacitor, CTS pots (the neck pickup actually has a push/pull pot to switch it to single coil if desired) and Switchcraft jack input. The machines heads were replaced by Gotoh Res-o-lite Reverse wind tuners. Historically correct shape and -very important- lightweight. No more neckdive! The Hanson Chi-Sonic pickups were placed, making this bas sound [b]killer[/b]. Very nice growly midlows. And to really put the icing on the cake we CNC cut a new -historically correct shaped- pickguard with bird logo engraved and filled with acrylic paint. Plus we added the word "Deluxe" on the pickguard at the location where the thumbrest was with the original Gibson NR Thunderbirds."[/indent][/indent] I have also removed the logo and added a Gibson truss rod cover. It has also had a pro set up. Its a cool bass with great tones either in humbucking or single coil mode. Also included is a custom ox blood croc hard case. Looking for offers around £700.00 or trades. This is a great price considering all the extra time and upgrades. Try finding a non reverse thunderbird at this price. thanks for looking.

selling a Yamaha BB 2024X bass from the Yamaha Custom shop. Comes with Yamaha hard case and paperwork, custom shop certificate etc. Lots of info on these on the web. I'm sure you guys know all about these but for those who don't know this is the famous BB bass from yamaha but hand crafted with new construction techniques and wood that has undergone their ARE/IRE treatment to make the whole bass more resonant. Its not hype it really works and this is easily the best "fender" you'll play. Specially designed pickups, thru body stringing, huge tones. This is the only bass I have found where you can switch between pickup configurations without tweaking the amp. It is so well put together you will not be disappointed. going on ebay soon at a slightly higher price so basschatters can get a better deal here. looking for £1425 shipped or £1400 collected. no trades.

Selling my Little Bastard 30 watt valve head and 12" cab. Its a fantastic little amp with a great preamp and goes louder than you'd think. Its like new, only had small use at home as a spare practice amp. Still has tags attached and I have the manual. Its currently not getting used so I'm selling it on. Looking for offers around £500.00 I can arrange delivery for £40.00 Ideally I will sell together but will split depending on the offers I get. cheers.

Just put my 1955 Custom shop Precision on ebay for 1500.00 but I would welcome an offer from Basschat. Nice subtle relic job. Not an obvious one like most they do. A great example with spare pickup and case candy. Sad to see it go. cheers, [attachment=79985:IMG_0443.JPG] [attachment=79986:IMG_0458.JPG]
