I'm really sorry to hear about this Bill - absolutely horrible - take care. I've sent a PM with more details.

Breathtaking. Do you have an image of the side of the neck for position markers (and are these 'on the line' or 'between')? Again, utterly breathtaking in every respect

I'm not really a Precision player but this is just wonderful! Worth the money for that tort plate and the gorgeous rosewood alone. The body shaping from this era is a thing of wonder too. What a very beautiful and useable bass

Re-listing - this was sold but returned as the buyer required a five rather than a four string bridge. Price reduced to £70. I appear to have accumulated a number of gold bridges that I don't need. This is a brand new, unfitted Hipshot Kickass in its original packaging and with all screws and spares etc. I only opened the packaging to check that all was in order. These seem to go for around £120 (that’s what I paid) - I think BD has them in stock. I can ship in the UK (at buyer's risk) for £5. Any questions, please just ask.

Wow! Lovely - British Agi DB 750!

Absolutely love these - one of my favourite 112s. Absolute bargain IMO

I'm not the biggest fan of ACG body shapes/headstocks but don't doubt Alan's technical skills and artistry as a builder. Despite the former comment, this looks absolutely gorgeous. I'm a massive fan of filter based pres and would love to try the highest of the high-end unit in this bass. I know times aren't easy but I'd be surprised if this hangs around. Sorry to hear of the roof too - not a great time of year for roof repairs (I've lived in Sheffield myself and know it can be a little damp). Incidentally, unless I've missed something, what's the string-spacing at bridge and nut?

Thanks, it does - everything included - ears, power module and footswitch

I think I have a box that would take this - it’s quite a dinky if enormously powerful unit

Perfect!

We no longer row. I just do exactly as I’m told. Fortunately, my wife has no idea what all this clutter does and really couldn’t care less!

And you’re very welcome anytime Andy - we really do need to catch up!

I suspect it would be a rather fabulous combination!

Exactly! It’s super sensitive so care required with input volume

Wayne Jones bass preamp - the latest version. I'm not a fan of hyerbole in ads but this is about as good as it gets. I just have a lot of pres and only really use a Hellborg. The one-knob compressor is a thing of wonder. When this arrived, it had a bit of an issue with a glitchy DI. I spoke to Wayne Jones about this and he provided the fix (undertaken by an excellent engineer in Manchester) - one of the caps had been damaged. Probably a cadet engineer and strapping phantom across channels. The internal protection didn't appear to have been successful. The preamp now operates perfectly. In optically perfect condition apart from one pinhead mark on the top of the case (I just dropped a tiny brush end of satin black acrylic onto it so it's almost invisible). Comes with the WJ footswitch and is in its original box. I can ship in the UK at the buyer's risk and expense. Collection in Manchester is possible. I suspect most interested will know what these are, but if not, take a look here: https://www.waynejonesaudio.com/products-specs/wjbp-stereo-bass-pre-amp/

Comes with the WJ footswitch and is in its original box. I'm also selling a WJ 110 - let me know if you're interested in both and I may be able to do a deal. The 110 houses two amps and opens-up (with the addition of a second cab) the stereo functionality of the pre. I can ship in the UK at the buyer's risk and expense.

WJ powered speaker cab - 110. These contain two high-end (Pascal) 500 watt amps, so the powered 1x10 offers 500 with the internal speaker and a second cab can be connected to benefit from the full 1000. The unit also offers stereo capability. The twin amps can either linked for mono use (with the addition of a second cabinet), or unlinked for stereo operation. Connecting a (suitably rated) 110 or 210 offers great flexibility and pretty immense power/volume. I have a second WJ 110 that I use with a Berg 210 - you can see what that looks like below (quite a nice fit and a vertically arranged 310 in total). The WJ preamp that I also for sale permits full use of the stereo functionality (I achieve such functionality via another route, hence the sale of the WJ pre - if you're interested in both the pre and 110, let me know and I may be able to do a deal). Build quality is on another level. Condition is excellent - just a few little impressions in the vinyl. The image of the rear appears to show scruffy joints in the vinyl - in reality, these can't be seen (a function of the very bright lighting I suspect). I imagine that most viewing this will know what it is. For further information, please take a look here: https://www.waynejonesaudio.com/products-specs/stereo-mono-bass-cabinets/ The cab weighs around 40lbs. An extremely powerful and pokey unit. WJ's boast that these (paired) can be used as studio monitors is no idle one - I've tried it. The price is firm on this - the cabs aren't easy to find and would cost about twice what I'm asking to import. US and Australia build - everything premium and it shows. Shipping is possible but to be arranged by the buyer and at the latter's risk - I can pack carefully in a strong box. Any questions, please just ask.

Legendary preamp in good cosmetic and excellent functional order. I picked this up around 18 months ago. When it arrived, the gain was slightly wobbly and one of the tone pots has a slight squeak at full travel. I had this examined by a first-rate engineer (works with some of the UK's biggest bands but under the radar). He contacted Udo and all was sorted rapidly. New pots supplied by Glockenklang and all working perfectly - back to full Glockenklang spec (it appears the gain pot had been changed at some point in the amp's life). I'm moving a few really high-end preamps. All beautiful but they all do what my Hellborg does (more or less) and that's in the rack. I can ship in the UK (and possibly beyond) at the buyer's risk. I'm not looking for trades or offers thanks. At the price, I'm taking a bit hit as it is. Any questions, please just let me know.

That's very cool and looks like quite a bargain to me!

Apologies, I didn’t really make my first post very clear. When I had a look at the images (shot of the rear of the pre), the unit appears to be set to operate at 117v. I wasn’t sure if this could be adjusted easily (and internally) or whether a transformer is required. Sometimes the internal adjustment is as simple as removing the fuse holder module and spinning it around. However, the images of the jumpers from Alembic make all perfectly clear. Thanks too to paul_5 for the clarification.

I enjoyed that - cool as. I'd love to hear more

Lovely preamp and much used by name guitar players and bassists alike. Does this need a step-down transformer or is the voltage internally adjustable?

I'm not usually a fan of spalted maple but that is absolutely gorgeous (IMO). If this was in the UK (VAT, duty etc.) I'd be very sorely tempted - if only to admire
