    This is a classic mixed message. Have a free bump from me but don’t sell it, you’ll regret it. I regretted selling one I had from new in 2017 and it took me a while to track down another. These are amazing basses......

    I see it has especially easy access to the dusty end of the neck.

    One piece Alder jazz bass body weighing in at 2.4kg with bpot bridge and some standard strap buttons. Came off a parts bass trade that I decided to part out so don’t know the origin of the body but the seller said possibly NW guitars. On that basis and with no ide where to pitch the price i thought I’d start at £75 but offers invited. Can be collected on the Wirral or will post anywhere for p&p cost. Thanks for looking

    Received with a bass in a trade but not required so up for sale. Collection or a meet up within 50 miles of Bidston on The Wirral would be best as postage is probably prohibitively expensive. Harley Benton foam / semi-rigid bass case in excellent condition - even with silica gel still in so must be newish.

    How fortuitous!!! It's on hold now...........

    Up for sale from a bass broken for parts is a fully functioning set of Dimarzio DP123 bass pickups. These are the traditional sizes with a shorter (3.6") neck and a longer (3.75") bridge pickup. Neck reading is 6.6kOhm, neck is 6.7kOhm so nicely matched. These are also hum cancelling. Will post anywhere.

    Received in a trade and I just cannot get used to fretless no matter how hard I try so this Status P width unlined fretless neck is up for sale. It has to be said it is incredibly smooth - unlike some of the sticky finishes I've had on Status necks before - and is absolutely sublime to play. It is equipped with Hipshot Ultralite tuners and has been correctly drilled / countersunk in standard Fender configuration. 43mm at the nut, 20.3mm depth, 63.5mm width at the heel. Comes with Fender neck plate with plastic protector pad and correct neck screws for the holes. Will ship it anywhere or it can be collected on the Wirral. I could also meet up within 50 miles or so.

    They're only very subtly different obviously. Apart from one rosewood board and one maple.......

    PMT have now listed that bass pictured as a Roger Waters sig P. Kudos to Ash Oddly the original ad is still there with the same pics.

    Sold 2nd time around for £1500. Very barganacious.
  16. vinorange
    Very under rated basses and as per the ad the early necks for these were made by modulus. Odd configuration with a rosewood board on a graphite neck though....
  17. vinorange
    No they didn't. I t didn't sell. I'm considering a trip to Woking from the sunny wirral but it's a long long way....pity as I've always fancied an Alembic.

    Bought a lovely USA P bass from Dave. Easy transaction. I paid some money, we met up and I received a beautiful bass which was perfectly as described. What more could you ask for? Thanks Dave.

    Price drop to £1000. Up for sale is my 2011 Shuker Jazz bass in gold finish in immaculate condition. There are no dings, scratches or blemishes anywhere. Originally owned by Andy Carr of ABC / Belinda Carlisle fame, the bass was a custom build by Jon back in 2011. I don't think he's made any others like the same as this one. It has nordstrand noiseless jazz pickup in the neck position and a kent armstrong humbucking soapbar noiseless pickup in the bridge position. It features a hipshot A style high mass bridge for perfect string spacing / intonation adjustment. It also features a John East J-Retro Deluxe preamp for ultimate tonal possibilities. The soapbar can be modified by a mini toggle switch for more tonal split coil / coil tap options but I haven't done the mod so at the mo it just runs as a mini humbucker and adds a nice snap to the tone. It has also been fully serviced and set up by Jon Shuker earlier this year so is pretty much perfect and ready to go. It goes without saying that it plays like a dream with a lovely satin neck, 38mm at the nut and weighs in at a respectable 4.3kg on the bathroom scales. Comes in the Shuker signature hard case and has had a recent set of D'Addario super steels. I can ship it anywhere as I have a guitar box in the loft. Also, can be seen, witnessed, played or drooled over on the Wirral. I can also drive 50 miles or so for a meet up if the buyer wants. Trades wise, I'd rather a straight sale but you never know......I'm always tempted by any jazz / precisions. Thanks for looking

    Yep it's a beauty although has fallen down the pecking order a little behind my USA Geddy Lee jazz and my Shuker jazz but still it's a keeper!

    Now I said I'd add some pics in the sun and ironically it isn't sunny but I got the bass out today, had play and remembered to take some pics.

    The bass will be for sale from one seller but multiple agencies offer it for sale. The advantage for you is that one of them will do a better deal, write the value down to save on customs fees and save you a packet of cash. I’ve imported a few from Japan including 2 Rickenbackers but the deal that stuck out was a USA deluxe FMT jazz which was for sale with 5 or 6 agencies at varying prices between £800 and £1500. Obviously I struck a deal at £800 and they wrote the value down to save import duty and were willing to help save money on shipping fees by shopping around. You’ll also probably find that the bass is in better condition than described as they tend to very (overly) genuine with their condition description.

    When I read the ad I thought it said Useless fretless three string bass for sale. That's subliminal connection for you.

    Meguiar's G17216EU Ultimate Compound Colour & Clarity Restorer 450ml for hand or machine polisher application https://amzn.eu/d/68tRxOS

    It's actually called meguires ultimate compound. Used to be cut and polish. My apologies. It is a cut and polish in one and, as meguires say, it obsoletes normal cutting compound. Highly recommended.....
