    [quote name='Lozz196' timestamp='1480815090' post='3187333'] I`ve a Precision on way with an Aguilar AG4P-60 in it that I`m planning on taking out/offloading, if interested. [/quote] I'd have a good listen to it first, though, Lozz. Possibly a bit mellow for you but I just put the 5 version into my Sterling and it sounds gorgeous. Really vintage vibe to it.

    Damnation, I keep looking at this! My problem is that I only really have room for one fretless in my life and at the moment it is that fabulous Osprey one I had from you some while back!

    Matt bought my Danelectro Longhorn is the simplest of transactions. A pleasure doing business (again!)

    Squier 'Silver Series' would be what I would hold out for.

    [quote name='JapanAxe' timestamp='1479841913' post='3179740'] Check out the TGI Extreme - I paid £37 from Bassgear, but I'm not sure they do them now they are online only. [/quote] I've just bought one. Really impressed. I've tried Mono and Protec and this isn't as good but it isn't far short. Way better than the Warwick Rockbag, Stagg or equivalent. And only £35.40 incl. delivery from Norman's [url="https://www.normans.co.uk/product/tgi-extreme-series-electric-bass-guitar-gigbag"]https://www.normans.co.uk/product/tgi-extreme-series-electric-bass-guitar-gigbag[/url] Thanks for the heads up!

    Peavey Foundation 5 string bass in glossy black with maple neck. USA made, no idea when. Serial number is 07834971 if you feel like some detective work. Very light traces of wear - surface scratches and buckle rash but bascially in very good nick. Someone had fitted a thumb rest at some point leaving holes remaining. Passive, 2 pickups, very 'Jazzy'. Weighs 4.4kg, width at the nut is a superslim 42mm (yes, a 5 string) and string spacing at bridge is 16mm. Must be a contender for the slimmest 5 string neck? Good strong B string. If you haven't read that these USA built Peaveys are incredible value for money then you must have arrived from another planet. I bought this extremely cheaply so am passing that on - selling for £180 firm collected from Benfleet in Bssex. Courier to mainland UK would be £25 extra - no case or gig bag but lots of packaging. Could possibly meet half way. Selling because it doesn't have a Precision sound and have now bought a Yamaha BB425, which has.

    Danelectro Longhorn bass in black - 'original' style re-issue with stacked knobs for each pickup and the strange not-very-adjustable bridge. I believe the is was one of the Korean ones but no firm idea of the history or how old it is. Uniquely shaped iconic bass, instantly recognisable. Bags of character and very eye catching. Weighs almost nothing. Sounds immense. Surprisingly wide range of tones from the two lipstick pickups as you can blend each with the volume and tone knobs to your hearts content. Short scale, 38mm at the nut. Bridge adjustment and intonation are at best rudimentary but it seems ok to me! This is in pretty good nick with no major dings or scrapes. Surface scratches form use and some buckle rash, both would most likely polish out. Will come with a brand new Thomann ABS hard shell guitar case, bought specifically for it but not actually left the house since, so I feel confident sending something that is made basically out of hardboard via courier. Price is firm £180 including the case plus cost of courier - probably £25. Alternatively you are welcome to collect from Benfleet in Essex or perhaps meet half way. Not prepared to ship outside of mainland UK. [attachment=232981:danolh1.jpg][attachment=232982:danolh2.jpg][attachment=232983:danolh3.jpg]

    Bought and fitted once, light wear, all there, good nick. This is the chrome finish for 3/8" holes in headstock, so the smaller size. £45 posted £40 collected from Benfleet in Essex [attachment=232980:HE6C.jpg]

    I bought these from the US of A a couple of years back, fitted them to a bass, removed them when I I sold it and they have been sitting here ever since. So fitted once, light wear, good nick, everything is there, original packaging etc. These are for the wider 1/2" spindle Fender type headstocks. £55 posted, £50 collected from Benfleet in Essex [attachment=232978:HB6C1.jpg][attachment=232979:HB6C2.jpg] Edit - extra picture taken of the only mark I can see. Small silver dot to the right. [attachment=232988:HB6C3.jpg]

    Amp techs that are 'approved Trace Elliot' - whatever that means! - in Southend. They have always done a splendid job on mine. [url="http://www.electronicmusicservices.co.uk/"]http://www.electronicmusicservices.co.uk/[/url]

    I have the RAH 300-12 SMX. Or, more accurately, I have 2 in case one needs to go into hospital. One is rackmounted into an ABS case and weighs in at 12kg, the other out of any box and slightly lighter. For me, and the tone I am looking for, it hits the spot. Pre-shape 1 and then dial in the blend with a flat eq to slightly cut the bass if the room requires it. Not found anything else that does the same thing so far so I stick with this. My nod to new stuff is that I think it actually sounds better with a Barefaced Supercompact than with the TE cabs I had. And even better still with two Barefaced Supercompacts...

    Norman Watt Roy springs to mind.

    [quote name='biggyp' timestamp='1480206188' post='3182567'] Still available mate? [/quote] Yes, still available!

    I always have two - the one I play and a spare, which is either a B2V or a B2B depending upon whether I am using a 4 or 5 string. Either way it is small - I usually prop it up behind or to the side of the cab. Guitarists in my regular band each take 2 guitars so they have a spare. So 6 guitars 'on stage', not that we play places with a stage. In the new Bon Jovi tribute the guitarist takes 3 - he uses a Line 6 Variax to emulate a 12 string acoustic at the start of 'Dead or Alive' on which he can then just change patches for the rest of the song. Then a couple of others as he prefers the tone and they way they play.

    I've broken and string and had an amp fail on me, so I always take a spare bass and amp as back up. Better them sitting within reach than at home!

    On hold for a week or so....
  23. Paul S
    Might as well! Then I can buy it back again a few months from now.
  24. Paul S
    They are definitely not the same, but I don't know what the difference is.

    This amp has been bought and sold on Basschat several times. Mainly by me! And here it is again. Promethean or Red Sub clone. 500W into 4ohm, lots of knobs and buttons all of which do useful things. I bought it as back-up and have now trumped it for something better. Everything works and it will include a kettle lead. £100 posted. [attachment=232741:hb1.jpg][attachment=232742:hb2.jpg]
