I have two mint condition pedals for sale. 1. Boss BC 1 X - £130 Excellent optical compressor which smoothes out your bass tone nicely. Surplus to requirements as I have a superb compressor built into my AER combo. 2. Creation Audio Labs Funkulator - £139. Boutique US made pedal which is really well demonstrated by Ed Friedland in the video below. Both pedals are only a few weeks old and look brand new. Supplied with original boxes. Any questions please get in touch.

I have for sale an Adamovic Soul 4 string bass. Presented in fabulous condition this is a perfect instrument for someone looking for a versatile lightweight impeccably well made bass with a wide tonal range. I traded this bass a few weeks ago at Bass Direct and whilst I love how it plays I prefer my PRS Gary Grainger bass. Having owned quite a few basses over the years I can confidently say that the Adamovic is up there with the very best of them, however being a casual player rather than a collector I have no wish to amass expensive instruments when they could be used gainfully by others. The bass comes with a super high quality Music Area heavily padded gig bag, and the usual adjustment tools should you need them. The bass spec is shown on the certificate provided however I must point out that there is a printing error on the document which identifies the bass as a 5 string for some reason when it’s clearly a four! The slanted Jazz pickups are made by German pickup wizard Harry Haussel. I would be more than happy for any interested party to come and try this bass, that way the instrument can be truly appreciated. The tone, finish, weight, balance and ergonomics have to be seen to be believed. I exchanged emails with Nicola Adamovic recently to confirm that the serial number is correct, which it appears to be, and he confirmed the current waiting time for a new build is over two years. I would describe the condition as excellent as it isn’t quite mint. It has two tiny marks on the top section of the neck pocket.(Please see photo). They are certainly nothing to be worried about in fact I was completely unaware of them until I took the photos a short while ago. If you have any questions please do get in touch. I am not really interested in trades unless you have a world class 5 string or lined fretless to offer as I would prefer to keep one bass in my possession going forward if possible. Please see a link to my feedback thread below, Thank you, Mark.

Stunning bass, and excellent playing. 👏

Very nice Roger, have a bump on me. Mark. 👍

Hello All, I recently picked up my lovely Fodera Emperor in a 3 basses for 1 trade from Bass Bros. It’s a truly stunning example of a passive jazz bass and is indistinguishable from new, I cannot find a mark or ding anywhere on the instrument. Please see details below. Olympic White satin /white pickguard. Weight 4kgs. Hand-Selected, Premium Tone Woods in this case Alder Body and Rosewood neck. 34" Scale Length 22 Frets PLEK’d Compound Radius Fingerboard 3-Piece, Quarter-Sawn Hard Rock Maple Neck High-Mass, Proprietary, Adjustable, Bell-Brass Bridge Seymour Duncan Retrospec'd JJ Pickups, hum cancelling. Passive Electronics. Alder Body / Rosewood Fingerboard w/ 60’s Pickup Spacing Holly “F” / Buckeye Butterfly / Clay Dots Fodera case, tools and certification provided. I would like a trade for a 4 string which is sub 8 pounds as my left shoulder is a serious problem (with cash my way preferably) Please note that for some strange reason my bass is still listed on Reverb as for sale by The Gallery for £5250. I believe it must have been there as a consignment sale and The Gallery have forgotten to remove it from their Reverb posts. According to the info I have it was owned by a collector and was moved to Bass Bros by the owner from whence it came to me. I don’t have lots of photos yet as this is very much an opportunity to see what might be out there. If there is sufficient interest I will be happy to post more photos. Please rest assured this is an incredible instrument, it sounds and plays wonderfully well as you would expect, weighs 4kg so it’s not at all heavy, and has a Fodera D tuner fitted. Please do get in touch if you have anything to discuss. This is a rare beast, in fact I can’t see many for sale at all unless you want to ship from Japan and pay a small fortune in duty, vat, shipping etc and a purchase price of over £6000. Needless to say I won’t be upset if I have to keep her, but a recent job change means a bit of cash will come in handy. Please note that two of these photos are taken from the Reverb listing. Please feel free to check my BC feedback and ask any questions you want to. Thanks for looking.

Stunning!

Sorry but I can’t help you with the location of said item but the signature is that of the luthier Bill Nash. Cheers, Mark.

This sale concerns the third of my basses, a Sandberg VT4 which was purchased earlier this year. During my brief period of ownership the bass has been stored in a temperature controlled environment at home and is in excellent as new condition. This bass plays beautifully and has recently had new Elixir 45-105 strings fitted, it’s also exceptionally light and weighs around 7lbs 12 oz. It comes with the Sandberg hang tag/instruction booklet and a high quality Sandberg gig bag. This model with the soft aged treatment and fingerboard markers sighs in at over £2000 so I feel that my bass is priced fairly for a quickish sale. If you’re local or just interested you can arrange to come and try it with no obligation. A buyer may organise hi/her own courier, however I am also happy to deliver with the NW of England and meet if you are traveling from further afield. Any questions please ask.
