Bought a pick guard from Ben & he was an absolute pleasure to deal with. Excellent communication & packaging + fast despatch, so very highly recommended to all fellow BC’ers without reservation. Thanks Ben👍👍

Bought this little cracker from this very Parish but despite giving it a really good go, sadly it’s not for me - (just call me ‘sausage fingers’)!! Light as the proverbial feather, sounds huge and the previous owner has wisely fitted Aguilar Thunderblack strings, which are a big improvement on the ultra sticky original type jobbies. The built in EQ is excellent and the tuner is spot on👍 Great for multiple applications - home / work / holiday / car noodling due to its minuscule size & weight plus it could even be a mini back up bass. Would also make a great present for your budding Jaco! It’s in great overall condition apart from a few marks on the rear at the top of the neck - please see photos. Can post to the U.K. Mainland only - sorry, if you are too far away to collect as I still have the box it arrived in. The TGI Gig Bag is a good fit and has a handy shoulder strap + pocket. Give me a shout if you have any questions👍

Does anyone own, or played a sub 8lbs 60’s P? I remember playing a very lightweight jobbie in a local ‘ish’ music shop in the early 70’s, but of course back then weight wasn’t an issue like it is now in my dotage😟 Didn’t buy it because I was hopelessly in love with my Jazz, oh & as an apprentice, I was probably skint too🙈🙈

Bought a Bass from Neil - it arrived promptly, incredibly well packaged & his communication skills were second to none. I would obviously therefore recommend him to all BC’ers without reservation. Thanks again Neil👍👍

Jack bought a ‘Jack’ from me, was an absolute pleasure to deal with from beginning to end & I would recommend him to all BC’rs without reservation. Thanks again Jack - enjoy👍👍

In nice condition from the early 90’s - sounds really good and plays really well. Solid Maple Body & bolt on maple neck (so that it can always be shimmed if necessary unlike the through neck version) + Indian Rosewood fingerboard, which has been treated with Fender Custom Shop oil. There are just a few light marks from normal use which look as they would polish out. Passive operation, so no pesky battery to worry about and no pre amp which I think can be temperamental? Licensed by Steinberger Bridge which seems to hold tune forever & the tuners turn freely. Although this is a 34” long scale Bass with a double octave neck, it feels more like a 32” medium scale Bass when playing - so great for noodling & limited spaces. It also has zero neck dive. Weight is a shoulder friendly 3.7Kg, or 8.15lbs in ‘old money’ Truss Rod is holding the action well and the action at the 12th fret is 1.5mm An even lower action may be possible if you are experienced in truss rod adjustment & lubrication etc as they always seem to be stiff on these basses. When fitted with my Status Bkack Nylon coated flatwounds which have less tension, the action measured just 1mm at the twelfth fret. Currently sporting an old set of Status Hot Wire medium? gauge round wound strings that sound great - l love ‘old’ strings. If you are too far away to collect in person, l can post to the U.K. Mainland only - sorry, via Parcelforce ExpressAM which should cost between £15.00 & £20.00 including insurance provided via Secursus.

Hope this is the correct section to ask if anyone knows which if any long shafted - reverse wind if possible - tuners would be a direct replacement for an Indonesian Squier Vintage Modified P Bass from 2020, including screw hole positions? Thank you👍

Hi Martin, great to hear from you. Thanks, it’s an absolute. cracker of a Bass, I just wished they did a P version of it with a wider nut for my old sausage fingers! If you find yourself tempted beyond redemption - tee hee, I guarantee you would not be disappointed. I now have one of the newer MarkBass 802 N 300w jobbies, with a standard EQ removable amp & it is really good. It also has a scooped Mids function via the included Jack insert or via an optional MB foot switch which is great for lovers of the old school ‘smiley face’ graphic EQ setting like me. All the best & thanks again, Tim https://youtu.be/lDCJLnrwr4o
