OK, in the hope that it helps spark some more interest in this lovely P Bass, here are three very rough & ready mp3s of the bass in action, to give you a flavour of what it can sound like. These have been put through a Zoom B1X Trace Elliot amp sim, and recorded into Logic 9 via an M-Audio interface. I've added a bit of compression and a tad of 2.5 kh eq to compensate for the strings being a few months old. Please excuse the scrappy playing and the basic sound engineering.. It is Sunday morning after all! 😁 Any questions, please ask... Squier CV P Bass Test Motown Style.mp3 Squier CV P Bass Test I Wish Finger Style.mp3 Squier CV P Bass Test Pick Style.mp3

Morning All, Having bought something else, I really do need to move this on now... So, new price is £350. Happy to throw in a decent gig big for an extra £15, or the Thomann Tweed case for an extra £35. Also, I will consider shipping this as long as it's fully insured. Any questions, please send me a message or ask away here. Thanks for looking... Nik

You did, some very nice ones too, Mick including that fabulous Veillette-Citron if I'm not mistaken?

This used to be mine for about 5 years, and before that, it belonged to @TheGreek. It was always a really comfortable bass to play and it sounded pretty good too. Not as aggressive sounding as some P Basses, but a really nice, usable tone. I imagine that it's considerably better in every respect now, given the very sensible upgrades you've done @Paolo85... And I still think that the mirrored scratchplate and tone knobs look cool... 😁 So, taking all of that into account, at this price, I'd say someone's going to get an absolute bargain here! GLWTS 😊

That looks really nice... GLWTS

Cheers John, It is a bit of a sexy looking bass... 😁 Sounds bloody good too!

In response to a couple of PMs I've had, here are some extra photos, which also include pictures of the Thomann case...

And here's some additional photos..

Now SOLD Hi Folks, Up for sale is my Squier Classic Vibe 70s P Bass, which comes fully set up and has the benefit of being upgraded with Fender Original P Bass pick ups, so it really does sound good! I'm looking for £SOLD for the bass, which I think is reasonable given the bass would cost £360 new and the pick ups about £90. These pick ups really do sound good to my ears - the sound is exactly what you'd expect from a P Bass, full, throaty and with lots of attack and presence. As can be seen in the photos, it's in almost new condition and since I bought it at the start of the year, I've only used it for a few rehearsals. It really does look great IMO, and it plays really nicely, though obviously that's a very personal thing; I tend towards a medium-high action, but everything is working as it should so it won't be difficult to adjust it to your preference. Strings are D'Addario nickels, 0.45-105s. Tech spec available here : https://www.gear4music.com/Guitar-and-Bass/Squier-Classic-Vibe-70s-Precision-Bass-MN-Black/2ZY8?origin=product-ads&gclid=CjwKCAjw586hBhBrEiwAQYEnHRTWaVK89KjNTbFZeJsRUT8GRn3klFdxvsV2QmafhsYUukpXGem7rBoCazIQAvD_BwE I'll post up the weight later... The only reason I'm selling is because there's something else I really want, and as this was last in, it's a case of first out... No trades please. I'm based in Potton, Bedfordshire and would much prefer to sell the bass to someone who's able to collect in person. As an aternative, I'd be happy to arrange a meet up in person within an hours drive from me.. Having had too many negative courier issues over the years with bass , I'm not comfortable with posting this but would consider it if absolutely necessary. I have a lovely Thomann tweed case that I could throw in as extra for £50 which would make it safer to ship. Trials welcome by arrangement with your amp of choice! Thanks for looking and if you have any questions, please send me a message via PM or ask away here. Cheers Nik

Thanks @Lozz196 I'm interested in buying this and am in Hemel Hempstead on Saturday 8th and 12th April... Would collection be possible? Cheers Nik

Hi Lozz, What brand is it and do you have any pictures? Thanks Nik

Yep, me too! GLWTS

Fabulous looking and very rare bass; you really don't see these for sale too often! I remember trying one out at the Bass Centre in Wapping years ago. Along with early Overwaters, Pangbournes, JDs, Mansons and Wals, these were part of a flourishing wave of boutique British built basses at the time. Anyway, I'll stop reminiscing now and just wish you the best of luck with your sale.

Great looking bass! And a fab looking rig too... GLWTS

He does now! 😁

Just noticed that this is a proper 2- channel amp - how cool is that! 😎

The CTM-100 is a great amp, and if I'm not mistaken, this one was built in the UK, which probably makes it even better. I imagine the combination of the CTM-100 with this particular 410 is pretty epic sounding too! GLWTS

I definitely don't, Chris! Much as it'd be great to see you and revisit Clackett Lane etc, etc, buying another amp would be a potential major health risk for me here at home.. 😉😁 It's a rare, high quality amp you're selling, so no doubt it'll find a good new home soon. GLWTS 😊
