Shambo

I got this in a trade recently and, apart from fitting it with GHS Precision flats, it’s barely been touched. Made in 2019, it is pristine with all the case candy and had Fender pickup covers neatly fitted. Because it’s ash, it’s a little heavier than the usual alder but still a manageable 4.35kg/9lb 4oz sans ashtrays. Not a lot else to say really. It’s like new. The neck is still pasty white. £1050 GBP collected from Kingswood, Bristol. Postage in UK is £30 extra. £1000 including postage in the UK. Reduced to £950 delivered on the UK. I'll gladly consider interest from mainland EU members who have good feedback and presence. I will post at your cost and exact quotes will be obtained for anyone with a serious interest. All trials are very welcome in Bristol. Payment is by cash or bank transfer. More photo's posted below.

This is a 50th Anniversary American Standard Precision bass in Transparent Butterscotch from 2001. Weight on my luggage scale is 4.26kg or 9lb 6oz. Body: Ash Neck: Maple (Maple Capped plus Graphite Reinforced) Fingerboard: Maple (9.5" Radius/241mm) Frets: 20 Medium Jumbo Scale Length: 34" Width at Nut 1.625" Hardware: Chrome Bridge: Standard. (String-through body) Pickguard: Black Anodized Aluminum Pickups: USA P Bass Unique Features: Vintage Tint on Neck, Commemorative 50th Anniversary Neck Plate, Rolled Fingerboard Edges, Certificate of Authenticity, Orange-lined Tweed Hardcase. Not your common garden, every couple of years Fender anniversary of something or other so slap a shiny sticker on it. This is a rare factory special run with certificate, one of less the 500 worldwide and cost around £1500 when new in 2001. https://www.talkbass.com/threads/fender-50th-anniversary-precision-bass.597217/page-4 I snapped this up last year when it was moved on quickly by a couple of Basschat’s usual suspects and I’m moving it on for the exactly the same reason… it’s too damn nice. It’s pretty much mint by my reckoning and I’m scared of damaging a collectable. Since I bought it this has stayed in its case at the very back of the wardrobe. Ideally, I’d like someone to buy it and show it the light of day, but show it carefully because it’s appreciating in value. It comes with its original tweed C&G hardcase, truss rod tool and certificate of authenticity. First I sourced some Labella 0760M-TB Jamerson flats that string-through. Then I gave it to renowned Bristol luthier Eltham Jones for a thorough set up with a view to keeping it long term. I cajoled him to set it up with a very low action and, for a change, he actually did what I asked. Those fat stiff Labella’s are super low, with no buzz and easy to fret. It quivers if you give it so much as a dirty look and creamy strong fundamental tones are assured. Trial is encouraged at my home in Kingswood, Bristol and I’ll make you a cuppa as you noodle. £1250 GBP collected from Bristol. Postage in UK is £30 extra. Now £1200 delivered in the UK.

I bought two sets of these last year but don't use them. I prefer the rubber washer things these days. These are the latest version. I'm not posting them in the little plastic box because they are PITA to wrap and they won't fit through your letterbox. £15, in a jiffy bag, delivered to your UK door... or £25 for both sets. Thanks for looking.

I got this with a bass a while back now, and save for a couple of visits to the luthiers, it's never really left the house. All my basses are now stored in hard cases. https://www.gatorcases.com/products/guitar/instrument-bassguitar/pro-go-ultimate-guitar-gig-bags/pro-go-guitar/bass-guitar-gig-bag-g-pg-bass/ It's quite big with lots of padding, bigger than some hard cases TBH, but obviously a lot lighter. Top of the range Gator gig bag. In very good condition, no rips or tears. A bit of discolouration where the strings & tuners have been in contact with the lining, else it would pass for new... 9/10. £70 posted within the UK or £60 if you collect from me in Kingswood, Bristol. Now £60 posted or £50 collected. Jazz bass for display purposes only and not included. 🙄 Thanks for looking.
