  1. Gary bought a tuner off me and - despite Royal Mail giving us a scare - all ended well. Top BCer as everyone else already knows 😀
  2. Dropped you a long shot PM
  3. This is of zero use to me so any sensible offer will be considered
  4. Could also offer this as a package with my vgc TC Spark Booster (to drive the gain higher) for £280 posted the pair.
  5. Don't suppose you are interested in any bass or pedal p/x trades with cash your way? The forum rules don't allow me to make specific trade offers on your FS thread but just asking hypothetically ....
  6. Jinxed @Beedster!!!! Meanwhile, 332 synonyms for egregious 😀 https://www.thesaurus.com/browse/egregious
  7. Tuner sold Remaining job lot (OneSpot, TC Spark Booster, Pedal Train Nano and bag) £60
  8. Bump with latest eBay tyre kicker story: EBayer: Hey,why is the chrome neck cover plate upside down? Me: I tweaked the truss rod to get action super low and accidentally reinstalled the cover plate upside down. Would you like me to reverse it and send you a picture? EBayer: Yes please (thumbs up emoji) Me (15 minutes later): voila (with attached a couple of pics of correctly installed cover plate) .... no reply
  9. @cetera is after a Soul Food (although I realise that doesn't help you sell as a job lot!)
  10. Fantastic piece of community 🥰
  11. Dave bought a Cioks PSU from me and it was a pleasure from start to finish. Enjoy!
  12. The nice chaps at BassBros have just listed a 78 Precision which looks like it just banged through a packet of Benson & Hedges before 8am today https://bassbros.co.uk/product/1978-fender-precision-bass-11/
  13. Thanks @MungoBass It's honestly the nicest profile neck I have ever played. Sadly me and 9 pound basses are not a match 😞
  14. Guess who? This time, sold a nice classic compressor to Arnoldas. Everything cool, as before!
  15. May be worth adding the weight Brian? That could seal the deal for someone. To me it looks very Peter Hook (ie cool)
  16. I would accept a discount to my advertised price if I get to keep the near new DR Pure Blues strings on it and swap for another older set (eg, I have some DR coated nickels 'Dragon Skins' 40-100). How does £650 plus post at cost (c.£15/20) sound? No trades, sorry
  17. ... and we then reversed the deal as it suited both of us. The BC circle of life, haha. All good as before!
  18. Been asked a couple of times about the neck profile (which - being Fender Japan - isn't a traditional 60s US profile, despite the model name!) Its 1.65 inches (42mm) wide at the nut, so its basically close to the modern P bass (1970s onward; 1.625 or 1.65 inches) in nut width rather than 1950s and 1960s style 1.75 inches (44.45mm). The blurb says its U shaped (see below) and it definitely is more of a handful than my Jazz bass depth-wise (Edit: c22mm deep in first position, see photo). The finish on the rear of the neck is not thick gloopy varnish so its easy to slide around from position to position without getting 'caught'.
  19. Seems cash is in short supply so trade option added: Origin BassRig SuperVintage And p/x with cash my way: Master Effects Golden Ratio
  20. The OP has been edited to say: "Price is £3,000, collected, no trades"
  21. Am heartily fed up of eBay tyre kickers with 78 questions/requests who then disappear .... So to keep this in BC community, £50 price cut to £700 (plus 24 or 48 hour economy delivery at cost - £15/20 or thereabouts). PS. The DiMarzio Ultra Jazz noiseless pickups alone cost £150 a set ...
  22. Addendum: if you are not bothered about the TI Jazz Flats, I could swap for some nickel rounds (DR coated Dragon Skin or Pure Blues 40-100) and drop the price by £25
  23. Will do, am waiting on some oval mother of pearl crown neck stickers from US to make it look more like a "regular" Euro 4 (and the earlier IH edition from c.15 years ago). Plays beautifully and sounds nice and punchy. Also the blemishes are virtually invisible on the gloss black, thankfully. To all intents and purposes, anyone from a foot or two away would think its brand new/mint
  24. I did buy it. I paid several hundred less than the one on Andy Baxter's site after our haggling. Think Tony I is just a bit rubbish at updating Gumtree advert (it said "weeks old" when he first listed it last year, when he had not long bought it from BassDirect ... given how many adverts he has, I think he just hits refresh when an ad expires!) I had a good experience PS, mine weighs 8 pounds 2.5 ounces, so almost identical weight to Andy Baxter's (1 pound more)
