Happy Jack

It's THIS one: https://www.andertons.co.uk/tc-helicon-voicetone-c1-hardtune-correction-vocal-stomp-box Pretty much pristine condition, it never managed to force its way onto my vocal pedal board (which already has a LOT of pedals). Does exactly what it says on the tin. Built like a tank. No extra charge for the velcro. And yes, obviously it's priced to sell. Assume £5 P&P on the UK mainland.

A few more details ... first up, it sounds exactly like a Zeller. I have owned and played several 3/4 Zellers and they all sound (to my ears) exactly the same. This 4/4 Zeller sounds just the same as the 3/4 only more so. Overall length (with end-pin retracted) = 80" Overall width (at widest point, lower bout) = 27" Overall depth (including bridge) = 17" Body depth (excluding bridge) = 8" Speaking length = 43" Weight (without pickup) = < 24lbs

When I set up my Alumibird build with @Andyjr1515 I sent him two necks and two sets of strings so that he could select the best combination. He went with the Jazz neck, so this rather lovely Precision neck (sourced from Chris, @Beedster of this Parish) is now available. It comes nutted and ferruled. And ready for tuners to be attached. The heel is unmolested. It even comes with a scam-busting piece of paper included in the photograph. Can be collected from Harrow, or maybe meet in the West End (I do go into town occasionally), or I can post for an extra £10 P&P.

The only significant change I've made is to add a Steve Whitehouse mag pickup for £200 ... it's optimised for feedback-resistant slap and it's essentially a strap-on/bolt-on Precision-style humbucker for DB. It's currently held on using Steve's completely removable system of shims and a couple of super-heavy cable ties, but he also offers a permanent attachment service from his workshop in the West Country. This pickup is NOT included in the £850 asking price. I am happy to keep this pickup as an emergency spare against the failure of one my Schaller 411s, but equally so to let it go with this bass if the buyer wants it. In that case, we can discuss a suitable price at that time. I've left it on the bass for the present, until I see which way it goes.

I don't normally operate 'one in, one out' but when it comes to DBs something has to give. The arrival of @Burns-bass's lovely Alcoa (on the right) means that something has to give, and logically it has to be the least-played of my uprights, the big Zeller. And what a handsome beast it is. Bigger than a 3/4, of course, but not massively so. Stance and technique are a direct transfer, almost without adjustment at all. Comes with one of them piezo pickup thingies. And a bridge. A lovely bridge. A BLOODY EXPENSIVE bridge. Unlike 3/4 Zellers, which AFAIK always have a swell back, this has a 2-plane sort-of-flatback. The camera does not lie ... that burst on the side really is that lush. The scroll is very bit as scrolly as you'd want. In a peg-head sort of way. And it looks the same on each side. Who knew? The bass comes with this Hercules stand. And this Gewa gigbag. Which has an inside. And a back. What will they think of next? Those of you with excellent memories will recall that I bought this bass rather more than two years ago from @Joebass for a measly £350, the reason it was so cheap being that it urgently needed a new bridge, a BLOODY EXPENSIVE bridge. That cost me £500 through Thwaites of Bushey, hence the £850 price tag here. I can't find a Jiffy bag that will take this, so I'm afraid it's a) collection from Harrow HA1, or b) meet at a motorway service station / convenient coffee shop / music pub / whatever not a million miles from Harrow HA1, or c) for a flat rate additional £1000 fee I will personally deliver this bass anywhere in the mainland UK, no questions asked. Please note that this would have to be on a weekday - I'm gigging every weekend for the rest of the year.

All tested, all fully functional, no extra charge for velcro. Flat rate £5 for P&P anywhere in the UK. Nigerian Princes busy on my other For Sale thread.

Hmmmmm. There is at least a fighting chance that I once owned this.
