  1. Thank you. The quality is far above the price point. Hands down better VFM than Fender.
  2. G&L Precision bass which comes in the very attractive and desirable Olympic White, Maple Neck and Black Fret markers Lovely bass which Iunfortunately does not get used as I am using my short scale Fallout. i bought this after trying numerous Fender Mex precisions. My friend suggested I try one of these and he was right it’s great. The hardware is top notch and the bridge is a great improvement from the standard Fender type. if you are looking for a great bass at a great price look no further. It comes in a Fender High end gig bag which gives great protection. Cost £65. I can ship in the UK for whatever the going rate is. I would consider trades for a short scale. Information and Spec: Poplar body "Medium C" Neck profile 21-Fret Maple fingerboard with block inlays Bolt-On construction with 34"; long scale length (864 mm) One G&L Alnico split coil pickup in centre position Passive circuit with volume control and treble trim G&L Saddle-Lock bridge with lockable tailpieces G&L Traditional Open-Gear bass machine heads.
  3. Fender Precision Lyte 1996. 50th Anniversary. I believe this is the deluxe model. Made in Japan. The bass is in great condition, plays and sounds great too. Control knobs have been replaced at some stage, hardware shows some wear but looking good for the age. A brand new Fender gig bag is included. Strap locks fitted which will be included as well as the original strap buttons. Pots for volume, bass cut/boost, mid cut/boost, treble cut/boost and rotary P/J pickup selector, with enough tonal diversity for any style of music. The bass was originally purchased from Cranes music in Cardiff and comes with the original receipt. I have only just noticed on the headstock a small hairline crack in the lacquer across the grain of the wood.( Hardly noticeable and not structural but wanted to point it out.) I have adjusted the price accordingly. A fantastic small lightweight bass - a great buy for someone. I am more into short scale so this just doesn’t get used and it’s such a waste just sitting there. Year- 1996 Fender Japan. Body Basswood. Body finish Black Neck finish satin. Neck maple. Fretboard rosewood. Scale length-34”. Electronics-Active. Pickups-PJ Weight -7. 1 pounds Price includes UK UPS shipping
  4. I am reluctantly putting up for sale my Ibanez EHB1000S in Sea Foam Green. The bass has been well cared for and only been occasionally gigged and as a result it is in very good condition. The OEM Bartolini pickups have been upgraded with Aguilar DCBs. This is a solderless conversion (see photo) using connector blocks, making it easy to reverse, or fit a different set of pickups. In addition to the Aguilar pickups, the plastic knobs have been replaced with metal ones. It will come in its original shipping box and gigbag. Also the ramp and original knobs as well as the Ibanez hang tag. Condition wise neck, frets and fretboard are all perfect as far as I can see. The body is perfect too. A testament to the way it has been cared for. I feel it is fairly priced given the upgrades and the current market value. The full spec can be found here on the Ibanez website: https://www.ibanez.com/na/products/detail/ehb1000s_1p_02.html Briefly it is a 30” scale, extremely ergonomically designed instrument. Plenty of contours and a super light chambered body mean you can play it for hours without discomfort. It balances really well on a strap with no perceivable neck dive. It’s 41mm at the nut, so it’s not going to feel cramped, if you like a P Bass but because the neck profile is quite a shallow D, those of us with short fingers don’t struggle either. An advantage of the headless design is you use standard length strings, clamp them and then cut off the excess. This means you have a much greater choice of strings for a shorty and you don’t have to pay the short scale premium. UK shipping available. I use UPS next day service.
