Now sold. Now £500 for the vastly upgraded bass, the original parts, a Fender hard case and a Fender gig bag, and UK delivery. I bought a lovely Squier Classic Vibe '60s Precision Bass as a project bass in July 2021 and have about £1,000 in it. I'm still not entirely convinced I want to part with it because it punches well above its weight but I mostly play 5-string basses now and I'd like to know somebody is getting use out of it. The Squier Classic Vibe series is known to be a bargain (I have a jazz from the same range too) but I decided to put all the bells and whistles on the P. I set out the specs below but basically everything barring the body has been upgraded by a trusted local luthier that has looked after about 20 basses for me over the years. The original Squier parts will also be provided with the bass. Specs Finish: Sunburst Body: Poplar Neck: Maple Fretboard: Laurel (frets dressed by trusted local luthier in July 2022) Pick-ups: Upgraded to Fender Pure Vintage '63 Bridge: Upgraded to Kickass Bridge Nickel 4 Tuners: Upgraded to Hipshot HB1s Strap Buttons: Upgraded to Schaller Straplocks Knobs: Upgraded to Fender American Tele Knobs Shielding and electronics re-done with materials from Six String Supplies Case: Will be supplied with Fender American Deluxe Bass Case and Fender gig bag (the Squier usually doesn't come with a bag or case) Weight 4.4kg on the bathroom scales Strings: Currently strung with Labella Deep Talking Flats, if I recall correctly It's been professionally set up by the same luthier that made all of the modifications. I've looked after the bass so it's in very good condition. I switched to 5 string basses around the time I got this so it's barely been used. The only mark I can find is a small slightly white spot on the headstock (it's so small it's difficult to photograph but I've tried to get it in the last photo). I’m happy to take further photos and will do my best to answer questions. Collection in central or SE London is preferred (I can knock £20 off) but I can arrange boxing and posting to most UK addresses.

WITHDRAWN - SENDING TO GET IT REFINISHED As part of a slightly convoluted tale, I purchased a 3 Leaf Chromatron from Talkbass for another BC member at the start of this year. We ended up not completing the sale and I already have one (albeit a lot more beaten up) so I'm making it available here for the price I paid. The Chromatron is widely considered one of the best, if not the best, filter pedals ever. It took Spencer Doren 10 years of refining his existing designs like the Wonderlove and Groove Regulator to come up with the Chromatron. For a long while it was my white whale pedal. To see why it's so highly regarded, it's worth watching Zach Rizer's demo: One of the reasons this was a white whale pedal for me, in addition to it just sounding brilliant and being highly flexible, is that they are extremely rare and difficult to get hold of (hence me having to import a used one from the US, with all of the enjoyable import VAT costs that entails). For context, it's not been made in a few years because there hasn't been a manufacturer able to consistently churn out enclosures to Spencer's high standards (and those standards are very high - I've got several of his pedals and his preamp in my bass and all are absolutely top drawer). 3 Leaf have just moved to a new release model so it's not currently on the website. It was still listed two or three weeks ago and the RRP had steadily increased to $499, notwithstanding availability is currently theoretical. Like many of the units, the lettering had started peeling away, although compared to some others that I've seen the lettering is more intact than average. The pedal works perfectly (it sounds fantastic!) but it's not boxed and it's missing a screw (I have a lead on a new one now). Clear nail polish had been applied over the remaining lettering to ensure the controls remained visible (this is more apparent in some lights than others, as contrasted in the first and final photos). Still, it's in better condition than mine, which is currently away having a facelift having shed the majority of its labels, rendering it a CHRCM^TRON and a question of guesswork as to which cable goes where. Please feel free to contact me with any questions (or to chat all things pedals). I've listed this for what it cost me to get hold of it and I'd probably rather keep it than lose out while trying to do a good deed. It is a lot to pay for a pedal - although I think this is one of a narrow category that is worth it - and I'm still a bit uncomfortable asking that much. Accordingly, I'd be willing to consider a trade for one-off Cog pedals, a Cog T-70 or T-65 plus cash or something Star Warsy. I'm also usually on the lookout for Iron Ether pedals, particularly the Dubterrograph.

Another cracker. I dread to ask whether you’ve had to hire stablehands to help manage your stable. I always like seeing your basses on here though; fantastic taste. Highly recommended seller. Good luck with the sale!

A very fair point! It comes in at 3.2kg (on bathroom scales which overstate my weight considerably 😉). I’m also selling a Hofner that weighs about 2.3kg.

That is absolutely stunning. Good luck with the trade.

Absolutely brilliant pedal! Good luck with the sale!
