90s TE gear is dirt cheap now. However, every time I see somebody gigging with one, it sounds absolutely amazing (to my ears, better than pretty much all of the contemporary rigs). I gigged TE for around 10 years - rock solid and compliments at almost every gig. Wish I could carry this
-
I used to own this - by far the nicest Overwater I've ever seen - it's truly beautiful and plays wonderfully well. It was just a bit too big for me. Fantastic seller too!
-
Can you let us know where you are if you can't ship?
-
Lovely - there's a nice review in Premier Guitar (with finger and pick sound samples) for those with an interest. Very cool bass

Hi there Three,
The original parts taken off went onto a Fender Roadworn jazz I sold on here not too long ago, so I don't have them. I do have the tug bar and bridge off the Roadworn that is the same style (60s with threaded saddles) and matches the aging of the VVT control plate. I also have a Fender soft gig bag that will be included in the sale.
Peace..

Thanks - this is very tempting - love the blocks and bound with MHS (and my previous Limelight was stunning!) -
Lovely! Are the original parts included and does this come with a case (I know that Limelights frequently come in a case)?
-
What an absolutely beautiful bass - I love the way the different planes are combined into the whole. What a salutary tale too. I suspect that I've been through similar emotions but was never sufficiently courageous or single-minded to knock it on the head. Good luck with the sale - a unique bass, Even greater luck with whatever you decide to do next

One of the finest valve pres - I've tried a lot and had a 680 for a while. I'd still have it had I not discovered - following much expensive experimentation - that I prefer SS. The 680 is bullet-proof - brilliant and very quiet for both stage and studio
-
I only know of one other in such good condition - these are lovely basses and this is a beautiful example. 11 lbs plus is about right for these - unfortunately, much too heavy for me (all that solid brass really contributes to the weight)
-
I'll attest to the quality and feel of the necks on these - I had a US JO and the neck was superb - silky, fast and incredible feel all the way up (superb carving and attention to ergonomics)
-
I had a chestnut topped MG5 - it was a thing of extraordinary beauty but the board was simply too wide for me. I keep looking and hoping that this has been sold...I'm starting to weaken...
-
If all original, the circuit will be Fender's first proprietary active 2-band that was designed for this model. It's a powerful, if slightly hissy, unit and has some very usable tones - it can be by-passed for standard passive operation
-
That looks to be in gorgeous condition! What's the weight - I've owned one and played loads - most were (seriously) unbearably heavy?
-
Completed a fantastic deal with Jamie - he was incredibly helpful throughout and communications were excellent. Payment was instantaneous. Most highly recommended as an upstanding pillar of the BC community

Somebody needs to jump on this quickly - outrageous price IMO - I can't believe this is still here. The equal of Celinder, Sadowsky, Alleva etc at least
-
Thanks all for the interest and very kind words - now sold (in well-under 2 hours!) pending payment
-
SOLD pending payment. Absolutely stunning Shuker PJ 4 in gloss black with all black hardware.
Basic details:
JJ Burnel recipe body
Maple neck with beautiful Birdseye board and brass nut
Extraordinarily figured headstock veneer
Sadowsky active with VTC
DImarzio (Sadowsky spec) P&J pickups
Nut width 1.45" - neck precisely modelled from Sadowsky Will Lee and incredibly slim, fast and playable
Weight - just over 9lbs (precise weight to come)
Condition - almost as new - some minor swirling on scratchplate and very minor swirling near J pickup
Supplied with as new (just one slightly sticky catch) Shuker branded Hiscox case
Stunning bass - incredible action, playability and versatility. Pro set-up just before Christmas with D'Addario 40-100 nickel rounds (and new battery!). Collection in Manchester or I can ship in UK (at cost and at purchaser's risk). Genuinely very regrettable sale but I'm only realistically playing short-scale.
No trades thanks and the price is firm - this is a bargain IMO - looking at Jon's prices, I'd say this bass would be very well North of £2k if spec'd new. Better images when there's some light -
I think that Promenade Music have an AER Amp One in stock at £899 - maybe worth calling? I've found the Amp One to be fairly unique in terms of functionality and tone - it's almost unbelievable, especially when pushed. I can't re ally comment on customer service, though I've heard both very good and very poor for AER

Nudge to the top

I can't add a link but this was previously advertised by jimijimmi on 5th August - images included - a beauty (and an excellent price in my opinion)
-
A relatively inexpensive way of getting a Fender dot and bound neck (one of my favourite looks)
-
Love these - incredibly elegant shape and gorgeous finish
-
Despite the time of year, I'm surprised this has lasted 'til evening - absolutely lovely

Hi Billy Apple, I'm in Ashton-under-Lyne - the end of the tram-track out of Manchester (about 6 miles to the East of the city and just off the Motorway)
