I took a punt on a Wilcock (Mullarkey) around a year ago - I loved the aesthetic but hadn’t played one. It was a revelation - playability is addictive and the tonal range is genuinely staggering (the power and versatility from a passive bass was a real surprise). Within a few hours it became - and remains - my most played bass. I can’t really comment on the MM pickup but I’d be surprised if this wasn’t a ‘do everything’ instrument (at a rock bottom price IMO)

Thanks all for the lovely comments and mails. The bass is now on hold - I'll update if there's any change

You did a brilliant job on this one Walshy - if it was just four inches shorter, I'd be in!

I try to avoid hyperbole in ads but this really is a fabulous bass in every respect. I acquired it recently from jay-syncro (fantastic deal) but it's just too long/big for me - as with any other Precision. I only play short-scales and should have known that I wouldn't get on with a long-scale (I've had enough of them for this to be evident). Jay-syncro's ad is here (and there's a link through to the original Walshy ad): It's a Bass Monkey (Walshy) build and an extremely high vintage spec. as follows: Hand-built lightweight swamp ash body Allparts licensed US Precision neck (quarter-sawn maple, 1.625" nut width and ebony board - lots of 'ping') Nitro finish in LBP including MHS - finishing undertaken by Dave Wilson Fender TV logo Gotoh res-o-lite vintage reverse wind tuners Badass II Bridge Kent Armstrong vintage pickup CTS pots and Switchcraft jack Fender F neck plate Weight 3.75kg The bass is extremely well put together, and is built exclusively from premium parts and materials. Condition is excellent with some light swirling in the nitro finish. The Dave Wilson finish is superb as one would expect and the LPB is very vibrant. The grain in the neck is lovely, though I should note that the some of the lacquer on the back of the neck is worn through up to around the fifth fret. I actually rather like this effect and have had the lacquer taken back on previous Fender-type basses to reduce the potential for 'stickiness'. The neck feels very slick indeed. The bass sounds to me like a '70s P - a big round bottom-end but the potential for some aggression and clank with the tone wound up. Playability is superb. I had the bass set-up with 40-95 D'Addario Nickel rounds. The set-up is excellent and the bass has an extremely low action. I actually dropped the action a little when the bass came back from set-up as I play with a very light touch and stupidly low action (too low for almost anybody else). As a result there's a bit of sizzle on the D at the 19th fret and on the E and A from around the 14th fret. This could be removed with a slight adjustment of string height (indeed, I'll do this if any buyer would prefer). The action will remain low. I have a little over £800 in the bass in total but I'm willing to sell at £725. I think this represents quite a bargain. Please take a look at the images - jay-syncros are better than mine (I hope this is OK jay) but please ask if you want anything specific in terms of photographs - or any further details. The bass can be collected from Manchester or if a buyer would prefer, I can pack the bass (in its included Thomann hard case - again, very good condition) and the buyer can organise a courier - at their own cost and risk, of course. I can be around to hand over to couriers.

I had a couple of Classic Supreme LG4s (with the DN boards) back in the early days of Jimmy's production - lovely instruments, but ultimately, I'm not a Fender-type player. The circuit in these is superb and works beautifully with AC's own pickups. This one looks lovely and I'd concur on the MHS. The headstock shape was never to my taste but the additional mass may (?) have helped with the avoidance of dead spots - both of my ACs had beautiful clarity and sustain from B to E on the G (not something I can claim for all the Fender-types I've owned). Good luck with this one - a lovely bass and a very decent price (IMO)

A very cool little bass and that neck looks lovely - nice pickup choice too IMO

Very cool - not seen one of these in ages! It looks really well-built with some very nice features

Staggering craft work and very Spanish (in the best possible way). The routing and finishing in the cavity is on another level

Absolutely lovely - with the DB750 (a peerless head IMO) that is a class rig indeed! Do you have the weight for each cab?

Absolutely stunning! Always loved these. The weight (and scale-length) imply that I’m out but what a beautiful example of a classic and innovative bass.

Absolute powerhouse. I’d love this but have no use for it (other than to admire it) and nowhere to store it. Utter bargain IMO

Absolutely lovely and very unusual to see one of these - is it 34" scale? Edit - oops, I think they're all long scale...

Superb amp, superb seller. Absolutely love these - rock solid and crazy prices for the power, quality and tone!
