I'm heading up to London to put this into the Gallery for £1199. For tonight I'm going to take it down to £1049! Let me know if anyone is interested!

That is astonishing. You really couldn't make it up!

anyone interested??

Thanks for the interest but I am more looking for a cash buyer or a potential trade for a new amp head.

[b]Sadowsky Metro MV4- Transparent white, Maple Board, VTC fitted.[/b] As much as I love this bass I’ve realised I really haven’t played it properly for about 6 months so I may as well turn it back into cash and dig myself out of my overdraft. It’s approximately 2 1/2 years since I bought it new from Alex at the Bass gallery. He said it had appeared in a review in a UK guitar magazine but I don’t remember exactly which one. It easily sounded the best out of the 6 or 7 metro basses they had at the time. Since owning it I have gigged it maybe 50 times and used it for a fair amount of recording and practice. It has not been abused, or mistreated, this is a beautifully made instrument and I have done my best to keep it in top order. This is a really light bass too, I don’t have the means to weigh it buts at least 3lbs lighter than my Fender Jazz. Description There is minimal fret wear with at least another 3 years of regular playing before it should need a fret dress. All the tuners are geared fine with no problems with tuning stability. The back of the neck has a smooth satin finish which has become softer after a couple years of playing. It has no marks or dents anywhere on the neck front or back. It does have two indentations on the end of the headstock caused by an errant cymbal on a very small and dark stage! It’s clearly visible in the pics. It has the VTC which I had retrofitted last year to take it up to the current spec of Metro basses. Everything works fine with the electronics with no issues, scratchy pots, etc. To those who don’t know the circuit it’s Volume, blend, passive tone (pull for eq bypass) and stacked bass and treble boost. The passive mode sounds great and is a fairly equal volume balance compared to active so it’s totally useable. It is set up with D’addario 45-105 Nickel wound strings with a fresh set on the bass. It has a few very minor dings on the body which I will detail. All the dings are tiny knocks in the top layer of lacquer with no heavy clunk marks. You can only see them when you hold the bass at the right angle in direct light. There is a little ding on the very top side of the bass about 3cm back from the strap button. Its approx 1cm long. If you really look at the back of bass it has some very minor buckle marks but you have to really be looking for them. When you touch the back of the body you cant feel any indentations at all. The most visible is a scratch about 2 cm long about 6 inches above the control cavity. Again this is only in the clear lacquar and does not go through to the wood. It comes with the original Sadowsky Foam lightweight case which has stayed in the house since I bought it. When moving it around I have used a Levy’s gigbag as it’s a little easier when walking with it than the rectangular Sadowsky case. I have used it for most of the recordings you can listen to here: www.myspace.com/heightsuk in particular try Balancing equations, Diabolos, Cryptozoologists field day. Price wise I am looking for[b] [color="#FF0000"]£1049 [/color][/b]for this bass. If this bass doesn’t sell on here I am going to put it into the bass gallery at a higher price to take into account their commission. I can accept cash, cheque or Paypal. I am located near Reading town centre and buyers are welcome to inspect the bass and try it through an amp. I may consider trades for Aguilar AG500 + cash or Mesa M Pulse 600. I can ship the bass through UK mail, insured UK shipping is around £20 and it will be thoroughly packaged to survive the rigours of the journey! I have sold goods on here before with good feedback. I shifted my PJB Bass Buddy and also a Korg multi effects not too long ago. Any questions please ask away, I always try to check back here every night. Send me a PM or reply on this thread. Ta! Jonno.

I had a streamer Jazzman and I'm pretty sure it was a maple top/swamp ash back instrument. Is yours 100% ovankgol body as that would make it a custom order bass??

Good luck with the sale Marc! It's for all the right reasons and I sincerley hope you get the best price for this awesome gear. If anyone has yet to hear the Hellborg rig then you are mega missing out. It's REALLY something special.

Sold!

Still Avaliable - Price drop to £85 inc UK postage!

Bump for price reduced from £100 to £90 +postage.

Provisionally sold! Edit was £100 then £90 plus shipping, now £85 inc UK shipping! Up for grabs is this Bass multi effects processor. I bought it as a headphone amp but I have recently got a little Roland Microcube RX which does the job admirably enough for my needs. Everything works with no issues/ no crackly switches or controls. It's been used but has no visible paint chips or dents, all buttons and the expression pedal is absolutely fine. I bought this secondhand earlier this year and really enjoyed using it. The guy who had it before me is someone I have known for quite a while and definitely doesn’t abuse his gear. I have the original box but not the manual, it's a fairly intuitive unit and the manual is available to download online anyway. It has a non original but fully working 9 volt power supply. This unit doesn’t need a very specific PSU so any standard 9 volt, low current adaptor should work fine as well. These seem to be £189-£219 + delivery online so I'm looking for £85. The buyer is welcome to collect from my home or work address in Reading. I can ship using business post for next day service. link to official blurb [url="http://www.korg.com/Product.aspx?pd=242"]http://www.korg.com/Product.aspx?pd=242[/url] The Korg AX3000B ToneWorks is a bass guitar effects processor which combines signal and effects processing with 72 Amp, Cab, and effects models as well as Korg's unique Expression Step Sequencer in a heavy duty metal chassis with an expression pedal and a backlit LCD screen.

+1 on Grado quality. I am lucky enough to have a pair of sr225's and they are awesome. Not huge amounts of bass but the sound is so detailed. As soon as I switch to anything else its as if a sheet has been placed between my ears and the music. Nice price!

Sold pending delivery etc.

These awesome monitors are up for sale. I have never really made as good use of these as the previous owner (Bracknell recording maestro Al Heslop) who I bought them from about a year ago. I dont want to sell these but it's a lot of money tied up and times must etc. I think they are about 4-5 years old and they have no cosmetic issues or servicability issues at all. They have always worked with no complaints of any type. They work fantastically as home studio monitors or as near-mids in a bigger studio. The bass extension is astonising for such little boxes. Its lovely detailed bass with no flabbiness or boxeyness at all. Off to a good home please! The cheapest I have found online is £600 a pair and £699 from an actual shop. These have the original boxes included and can be collected from my address in Wokingham or delivered to a local address. I really wouldn't want to post them as they are fragile items and the buyer is welcome to inspect and listen to them. £350. Offical blurb: 'This high-performance monitor comes in a very compact design and it is extremely well suited for production environments where space is a concern. The BM 5A is well suited for music monitoring and mixing, broadcasting, OB vans, edit suites, playback suites, project studios and smaller post production facilities. The small size in combination with the renowned Dynaudio Acoustics performance makes the BM 5A suitable for smaller 5.1 productions. When space is limited, the combination of the BM 5A with the BM 10S will deliver a full-blown 5.1 system with a remarkable performance, most often only known from larger setups.
