  1. Hi, I replaced the black tuners on my Spector Pulse II with a Gold Gotoh GB707 set. The Gold are a drop in replacement. See dimensions diagram which happens to be for Wilkinson Open gear tuners but I checked dims with my Digital Calipers so the diagram is accurate. Spector Logos are painted/printed , not a sticker. £45 includes UK postage and these were only my bass for a few days. Weigh 240g, see photo. Also selling exactly same dimension set from an older Spector NT4 but they are in excellent condition too ( £40 ). Cheers. Quent
  2. Hi, I took these tuners off my 2016 Spector NT4 and replaced with Gotoh Gold GB707 , hence photo to show Drop In compatibility. Just home use by myself for a few months ( I bought bass new in 2018) before putting the gold set on. So excellent condition and very little use. They’ve cleaned up as well as the other same size set I’m now selling (£45) on here , just no Spector Logo on these. The diagram dimensions are accurate in the photo. I have digital calipers. Just had to change a couple of dimensions on a Wilkinson open gear diagram. £40 includes UK postage. 2L-2R Weight 238g Cheers. Quent
  3. Thanks for that Cocco 👍 and - Danny , I hope you get over your GAS soon - by getting your very own Fender American Elite Jazz V !! Trouble is, there’s only mine available. Some interest on Evil Bay but I’m Fendering them off on your behalf ! 🤓 Cheers. Quent
  4. Hi. Here is my mint condition Sire P7 2nd generation 5 string bass which I bought new in Jan 2019 ( Made in 2018 ). It’s only had occasional home use here due to competition from my other 5 and 4 string basses. Hence the Mint condition with no blemishes, swirls or dents. Just as it came out of the Sire box. Selling because………….I bought a white one the same. ( I know. Couldn’t stop myself! ) The gloss black finish is superb and the pickups pre amp, truss rod , bridge and tuners all function perfectly. The bass has an Alder body, beautiful Ebony fingerboard with pearloid block markers, rolled edges and classy white binding. The maple neck has a satin urethane finish for a non stick, fast feel. A superb rocking powerhouse of a bass which can also cover a variety of subtle tones. Passive or Active with the awesome 18v powered 3 Band onboard Preamp. Both batteries checked this week, both reading 9.37v , not new but still on full output. Well balanced at 4.5kg , 9lbs 15oz whether standing or sitting. Strung with D’Addario 130 - 45 nickel plated roundwounds. 34 inch scale, 46mm nut width and 18mm string spacing at the saddles. More specification detail in the photos (screenshots) below. Truss rod and saddles allen keys included and I’ve taken off the body end strap button for the journey , it’s wrapped up and in the pouch with the allen keys safely away from the bass. This is a 2nd Generation Sire P7 in Perfect condition and please bear in mind I’ve included UK mainland Fedex insured delivery ( It’s £20 extra to N.I and islands , so I’ve discovered so you’ll need to cover that. Thanks.) It’ll be double boxed (Sire Marcus Miller inner box )and padded well. Thanks for looking.
  5. Hi everybody. This Fender American Elite Jazz V ( made 2016 ) is in excellent / V Good condition overall for an 8+ year old bass. The original owner gigged it occasionally before I bought it in July 2019. Since then it has only had limited Home use only as it competes to get played with my other basses. There’s some very slight fret wear under the D string from frets 2 to 7 , hardly visible, which I noticed when polishing the frets this week. The black gloss body gleams. One small dink near the chrome control plate , top side, and one on the back face close to the jack. Some other mini pits but please see the photos to see how minor they are. The finish is not broken. Still no sun here so took the photos today in the conservatory. Hence reflections of roof panel parallel lines, moss lumps and palm leaves. I’ve also had a 4 string Elite Jazz since 2016 and will keep that, so now it’s time to let someone else have the pleasure of this superb Fiver. Fender’s top of the range, with it’s Noiseless pickups, powerful pre amp and excellent build quality. Many consider the Elite series Fenders ( 2016-2020) their best. Played it this morning. No issues whatsoever. It’s so impressive in Passive mode and truly exciting in Active mode. The bass really does look stunning and is in perfect working order. All original apart from an identical WD Music pickguard I bought. Truss rod lever, saddle key and Schaller strap Locks are included and the original Fender Tag. Both batteries read 9.36v today, so it’s ready to leap out of your cabs! Well balanced whether standing or sitting at 4.56kg 10lbs 1oz. Alder body, maple neck with gloss finish , pearloid black blocks and black binding. Delicious! 34 inch scale. 46.7mm nut. 17.5mm string spacing at saddles currently - adjustable , via the grooved saddles. Price for this much sort after and currently very rare Black/Maple stunner includes insured UK mainland delivery in the original Fender Elite Moulded hardshell case, then a large outer box. I’ve searched and can’t find another Black/ Maple Elite Jazz V so you might have to act quickly to secure this. Thank you for looking. More detail below specific to this bass.

  6. £340 without the new gig bag and D Tuner. £370 with them I’ll withdraw this next week so last few days for you to own this superb bass. Thanks for looking.
  7. Just a heads up that I’ll take close offers to £425 now but I’ll move this on elsewhere at the end of October. A superb instrument. Tap the photos to enlarge and zoom in further on that binding ! Enjoy! Cheers. Quent.
  8. Quite right Dirgefornovember! Don’t sell it for less because these Korean made ones are really great basses and , from forums , I’ve read that they do come “close “ to the German made equivalent so any of the short Korean era basses are made superbly. I have a Korean Streamer LX 4 with passive single coil pickups too and they punch as strong as you want. I’ve got this one’s sister or brother with exactly the same Made date ! A red one I got from BDirect so have a bump on me and GLWT. Cheers.
  9. Ha! Thanks Schnozzalee but it’s just point and shoot in good light in our conservatory , or by the front window. An iPhone 7. I do take lots and reject many. If I can do it……. Helps with gorgeous bass of course. You could buy it from me to hone your photographic skills! Cheers. Quent
  10. Hi. Final Price £450 but No Offers as this is a great price for such a bass in prime condition and no play wear . I’ll move this on if no interest during October. A stonking performer that will cover a vast range of tones and this one’s a real looker ( + Matching Headstock, so difficult to find ). USA version acquired this year so I can’t justify keeping this beaut. I have another gorgeous bass for sale here because I couldn’t resist buying the USA made equivalent. An extravagance because the Tribute Series electronics and hardware are the same spec as the US made basses. Anyway, I’ve done it now so this beauty can be yours. I bought it new from Andertons in 2020. S/No 181122060 Made in 2018. Weight 4.36kg 9lbs 8oz. 43mm nut 19mm string spacing at the saddles ( D’Addario nickel plated rounds) These with the matching headstock were only made for a short while and seem a rarity preowned so here’s your chance! There are loads of Youtube demos of G&Ls L2000 so if you are not familiar, check those out. Volume Treble Bass and Leo Fender’s unique electronics means the Bass and Treble work when it’s in Passive mode. 3 switches Passive/Active/Active with high end treble Series/Parallel Pickups selector Bridge,Both, Neck. With all these controls it really is helpful to have the pickup selector. Flipping marvellous! 🤓 Not used a great deal as I have quite a few basses so no signs of wear and all works perfectly. Luscious creamy paint with gloss. Two tiny specks on the body front which simply look like dust. See if you can spot them in the photos. They’ll be joined by the usual dust in the air and really aren’t noticeable. I only spotted them yesterday by being OCD during my inspection! I’ve added two more pics showing the specks location. In the close up, for comparison, there are 3 specks of actual dust above the knob and switches happened to settle as I faffed before taking the shot. The body on this production run was Basswood but feels as solid and sounds like an Alder body. The fingerboards were Brazilian Cherry. Too light for me so I’ve darkened it with Fiebing’s Pro Dye liquid stain ( Dark Brown ) after consulting my usual Pro technician. Fret dot markers protected the pearl dots. I applied some matching cream Jockomo markers which can be removed but I love them. I’ve checked typical preowned prices to pitch mine but this is a rarer finish and in top condition. Upgraded knobs with indicators and upgraded string tree with slots. Having said that. Make me a near offer and we’ll see. I have other basses up for sale only. 3 others. Gave the fretboard an little oil clean today ( it didn’t need it but my paw marks are not on it now). Frets needed their annual polish so the end two photos show that. I’ll double box this to you using the original coffin box inside a large box. Cheers and please ask away if you wish. Quent
  11. Hi. Another drop to £450 before moving this elsewhere. These are wonderful basses so save yourself £150 to £200 on the current price of a new one. ( £648 at Yamahamusiclondon ). I’ll have to settle for my Japanese made BB P34 alone. Poor me ! 😃 I bought this new in May 2020 and was so impressed I decided to “upgrade” to a BB P34 , the Japanese version. I’d like to keep both but after a year with both it’s time to let someone else enjoy this beautiful bass. Made in Aug 2019 S/No: HPO13322 it’s in perfect condition, as it came out of the box. I’ll package in the original coffin box inside a larger guitar box. UK only. Weight 4.15kg , 9lbs 3oz You can read the detail in the link below from Yamaha’s site but the nut is 40mm, 34 inch scale and the strings are 19mm apart at the saddles. I only play at home and take great care of my basses so this really has no signs of wear, no dints or knocks. £475 is the price inc UK delivery so you can save yourself £150 to £200 on the price of a new one because mine has no wear , swirls or blemishes at all. Powerful alnico V pickups and as usual with Yamaha a tone control which gives a great useful range of tones. Controls Vol Vol Tone. Strung through the body with D’Addario EXL 170SL nickel plated roundwounds 45-100 I’ve added two screenshots to the photos below of the Specs and Features from the yamahamusiclondon site. Yamaha link. I can’t seem to copy the link but please search yamahamusiclondon Choose, Guitars then Basses then the BB434 basses are the second group down ( after the 424 and 425s). The photo of the body rear shows reflection of moss debris on our conservatory roof. The dark shapes! It’s all perfect. It has a lovely very dark Rosewood finger board. Cheers. Quent
  12. Here’s a beautiful Cort A5 Artisan Open Pore Black Cherry five string in perfect condition. No Offers thank you. Already great value for a top bass in mint condition. I’ve owned this from new in April 2015 , from Richards Guitars. Absolutely love the bass and the Bartolini MK 1 pickups and MK 1 preamp with EQ off/ on switch - not that I switch it off ! Vol Blend Treb Mid Bass. Through neck 5 piece maple and Panga Panga laminate. Very light and comfortable at 3.95kg , 8lbs 12oz. I replaced the rubber O rings on the control knobs ( they get perished after several years even when kept at home like my bass) I added adhesive fret markers to the lower side of the board which I will remove easily if you wish. The inset abalone ones are top side but I need more guidance on the board. No dinks or dents or scuffs etc. This is totally mint. Superb Hipshot bridge and tuners. I managed to get hold of a flamed maple FMMH one that’s even lighter ! Hence the sale. I like flames. The only difference between this and the Cort variant A5 Plus Flame Maple Mahogany model ( FMMH) is that you get a flamed maple figured body top to the mahogany body. With this one you get an already beautifully characterful maple top to it’s mahogany body. Apart from that they’re the same - except the mahogany on the FMMH is finished in a dark stain compared to mine, which has a more natural colour to the back. 34” scale and the B string plays very well. My newer one has Flats on it vs the D’Addario 45-130 on this one. Both sound wonderful to me. Nut width 45mm String spacing at saddles 18mm Lovely satin finish to the body and neck, satin type finish to the knobs and bridge. Please ask if you need more information. I’ll double box this for UK delivery. Cort Coffin box inside larger box, well protected or if you’d prefer, I have an old road worn hard case I could use instead. It came from California with a bass I bought , so it’s had a right old life I imagine. Cheers. Quent
  13. Thanks MSan94 and greetings from the UK ! Yes, this refinish paint job has been done superbly and looks even better than the photos. Such a unique and desirable bass. I won’t be giving it away cheaply. Standard excellent condition price plus extra for the privilege of the refinish. Cheers. Quent 🤘
  14. Thanks guys. Yes , clearly a one off stunner. Cosmo looks totally stunned in his photo there ! Set Phaser pedals to stun ! or am I mixing up you-know-Who with Mr Kirk ?
