Stevie Wonder in Cardiff on 9th July then Neil Young with Cat Stevens at Hyde Park on 11th, then Smashing Pumpkins with my 15yo daughter in London on 10th August. Took her to watch Guns and Roses at Villa Park last week as well which she really enjoyed, and I also saw Mike Watt with MSSV a couple of weeks ago in Bristol. Pipe that live music right into my veins 😂

Having a bit of a streamline of my pedalboard and looking to let these beauties find a new home. Sansamp Programmable Bass Driver DI You know the deal, industry standard preamp/DI functionality - this one has 3 switchable channels allowing you to vary your tone/drive as required. A great pedal that's been a key part of my board but no longer required due to my GK 700RB amp. Excellent condition comes with the box. SOLD MXR M85 Bass Distortion A flexible bass distortion based on the famous RAT circuit this one has both the original RAT and Turbo RAT circuits switchable via a push button. Sounds great and in excellent condition apart from a few small chips in the paint. SOLD Seymour Duncan Studio Bass Compressor Really versatile workhorse compressor that gets great reviews on sites like Ovnilabs - https://www.ovnilab.com/reviews/vicegrip.shtml. A few battle scars to the paintwork but apart from that it's in great nick. Looking for £110 posted EHX Bass Clone Chorus Bought this last year looking for a Peter Hook kind of sound as it's a modern version of the original EHX Clone Theory. Hardly ever used, comes with the box. SOLD Behringer BDI21 Bass Driver DI Cheap clone of the famous Sansamp Bass Driver DI, does a fantastic job considering the price differences. Looking for £15 posted

I bought a used one recently off the forum to fit on my precision and it’s great. I had to lower the relief and the nut slots needed some fettling but the profile is great and the fretwork was fine. I only needed to give the truss rod about a quarter turn but it was smooth and felt reassuringly solid. Hope that helps

Bought a precision neck off Pete, he was a thoroughly nice chap with great communication. The neck was very well packaged, and arrived exactly as described. A top Basschatter ☺️

Bobby bought my Squier Classic Vibe P bass pickup. He was super easy to deal with, great communication and seems like a real gent ☺️

Was at Exchange in Bristol last night to see MSSV, the experimental noise rock band with the four string legend that is Mike Watt! They were supported by local band Omega Institute, who played some interesting tunes with a jazzy, ambient feel, improv kind of stuff. MSSV were great. Mike Bagetta's guitar tones were awesome, real gnarly and cutting and drummer Stephen Hodges (who's played a fair bit with Tom Waits) was super tight. Watt was using a crutch whilst watching the support act and sat down for the whole gig which was a shame as I was looking forward to seeing him gurning and bopping away as normal, but more importantly I hope he makes a speedy recovery from whatever's happened. Playing quite understated stuff, he was using a beautiful green Reverend signature into an Aguilar head and a Barefaced cab. His tone was really mid heavy and he was really pushing the input of that amp, a lot of it sounded like a fart and I could see the clipping light flashing away like a strobe 🤣 They played for about and hour and 20 whereby they literally started unplugging kit and packing away within seconds of the last song 😂 Thoroughly enjoyed it!

Have some unused valves knocking around that aren't going to get used. They were purchased a while back as spares for the Fender Tweed Deluxe kit I built. I have tested them this morning in my amp and all are working fine with no noises of any kind. The EHX preamp valves are 1 x 12AX7 and 1 x 12AY7 - one has the original box the other one doesn't for some reason, but both are unused and have been sat in my drawer. The 12AX7 is now sold Looking for £12 posted for the 12AY7 please. The rectifier valves are 2 x NOS Brimar 5Y3GT and 1 x NOS Pinnacle 5Z4GT - The Pinnacle can be used as drop in replacements for a 5Y3GT. I bought all of these as New Old Stock and they come with the original boxes but do have signs of wear on the cardboard. The Brimar valves have a corrugated cardboard and tissue paper protective cover that come with age appropriate smell 😂 Looking for £15 each posted please. Happy to arrange local meet-up with price adjustment if needed.

I'm selling this lovely Squier Classic Vibe 60s Jazz as my P Bass does everything I need. This is one of the original made in China basses, made in 2012. The quality is fantastic, with a rosewood board, high mass brass saddles and decent tuners it's definitely a step up from the current Made in Indonesia models. The wood grain on the neck is really nice. Truss rod is fine and all hardware is working as normal. It's in great condition apart from one small ding on the forearm - This could be easily repaired/covered with paint if required but I wanted to leave it. Frets are in really good condition, I've given the board a fresh coat of lemon oil and it has a new set of EB Slinky 105-55s on it. 38mm nut width with a lovely slim neck and weighs a comfortable 4.2kg/9lb 5oz. Looking for £300 - These basses are definitely starting to gain a bit of a cult following due to the quality. Any question please ask.

1979 Fender P Precision Bass Black/Maple - *SOLD*

Selling this CV 60s Precision neck as I'm having a bit of a clear out and it's just sitting around. Has a 41mm nut - Truss rod and tuners are working fine, it's from a 2021 model I think so has a laurel fingerboard and I've given it a coat of lemon oil. The profile is really nice and playable, having a decent amount of wood in the hand but slim enough to make getting around the neck a breeze. Has very minimal fret wear and I've given them a polish with some 0000 wire wool. SOLD I upgraded one of my basses with a Gotoh recently and have this hi-mass bridge spare. Standard 5 screw install and this one has 4 holes for string through body as an option. Looking for a £8 posted. I also have 2 sets of pretty much brand new Rotosound RS66LD Swing Bass strings. I fitted these to my basses a couple of weeks ago but just could not get on with the feel/tension so I've gone back to my trusted EB Slinky's. They're both cut for a Precision/Jazz and have seen about an hour max of use on each set. Looking for £20 posted for the pair or £11.50 posted for a set. Any questions please let me know.

Selling this lovely Ashdown combo I bought off here a few years ago. Has served me well but I've now got my ideal setup of GK 700RB head and Ampeg 610 cab so this one is now free to carry on its journey and find a new owner. It's in great condition for a 25 year old combo - I had it serviced at the end of last year by the legend that is Dave Green at Ashdown. A couple of pots were replaced and a new preamp valve added, but apart from that he gave it a fine bill of health. Plenty of power with 300w going into what I think is an original Sica blue line speaker. SOLD I'm open to offers on this so fire way 😁 Any questions please ask!
