Available again. As mentioned above, insane bargain!

Good question! 😁

Complete set of EMG JAX pickups with the EMG solderless loom in original packaging. These pickups sound great and are a fair bit warmer/more natural sounding than traditional EMG's. Only selling as I want an EMG PJX set! Manfacturers info: The JAX Set is based off EMG's original J, but uses Alnico V magnets instead of ceramic and our X Series preamp. This creates a tone that is warm and open for a more vintage sound with a broad frequency range and added dynamic response and feel. The JAX provides bass players with natural presence, powerful lows, and expansive midrange. With our X Series preamp on-board, this pickups set truly bridges the gap between passive and active tone - giving players the best of both worlds. Whether you play fretted or fretless you'll get an incredibly full sound with these bass pickups. The X series preamp gives the pickup a more dynamic range along with increased headroom while keeping the more traditional string-to-string balance. X series pickups also come with an Active Tone Control (VLPF) designed to roll-off (attenuate) high frequencies, similar to a typical passive tone control. The result is a noiseless single coil guitar pickup with a classic EMG sound that bridges the gap between active and passive. £100 collected from Margate or I can post via Special Delivery for £8.

This is now on hold 👍

Thanks 👍 I've had an embarrassing amount of Jazz basses and I have to agree, this does it all and feels like a much higher end instrument than the price would suggest!

I forgot to add the pic of the Bass Centre case candy. I'll take £475 for this if anyone fancies it? Amazing value for money!

Thanks 👍

Hi, due to wondrous brexit, this is a UK only sale I'm afraid.

Me too. Thanks for the kind words.

Price drop to £295.

Price drop to £550 ono.

Hi, it's just over 4kg/9lbs.

Great, thanks for the info 👍

Very kind, it is now sold 👍

Another price drop to £1395.

Now £450! Bass Centre Guy Pratt Betsy bass up for grabs. The bass is in excellent condition, comes with the original Bass Centre gig bag and has recently been setup with a new set of Jim Dunlop Nickels. Much has been said about these basses offering exceptional build quality and tones for a shockingly low price, and I can only agree. They really take some beating! This bass plays and sounds great well with a very low action if desired. Here's the link to the Bass Centre page for more info for the uninitiated https://www.basscentre.com/british-bass-masters/bbm-betsy.html Collection from Margate or I can box it up if a courier is required.

Hi, it's a relic job, although it's more convincing than a lot of Fender Custom Shop basses I've played! I assume it's alder due to the prominent grain patterns, but I'm not 100% sure I'm afraid.

It comes with a pair of pliers for the DIY Jaco fan 👍

Fender JB62 Jazz made at the Fuji-gen Plant (for Fender Japan) in 1993 - 1994. I'm offering this bass up at a fair bit below market value as, you may have noticed, it's been interfered with. The body's paintwork has been subjected to a damn good kicking, but luckily the neck and hardware aging all seems to be what you'd expect from a 30 year old instrument with no additional relicing. Everything else is original, the frets are in good shape and the truss rod works as you'd hope. I recently took this to a function gig and everyone in the band absolutely loved the look and sound of it. "That's much nicer than that weird looking bass you had last week." That was a Spector 🤷🏻‍♂️ It sounds great and plays wonderfully with a fairly low action for a vintage spec jazz. It's recently been setup with a new set of Jim Dunlop Nickel 40-100's and is ready to rock. It's light at just 8.5lbs and comes with a newish Tourtech gig bag. I can include a strap if you need one as I seem to have an abundance at the moment. Collection from Margate or I can box it up if you'd like to arrange a courier.

Just two more.. I can include the Neotech Mega strap with the Spector as it maximises the phantom-bass effect!

I can include a nice Greco strap (for that full Japanese experience!) and an old gig bag with this if anyone fancies it?

Just had a go at getting a shot on the scales and in the vertical orientation it varied between 6.2 and 6.4lb... Laying it flat on the scale resulted in a steady 6.2lb.. Insanity.

Sure thing, here it is with a regulation tin of beans for scale.

Thanks 👍

Now £250 1986 Ibanez Roadstar RB760 made in Japan up for grabs. This is a lovely instrument that has many cross over features from the Musician I sold recently. It has the same wonderful neck profile, body shape, hardware and high build quality, but with a bolt on neck and passive PJ pickups. It also has the coolest strap locks ever created 👌 It's in very good condition for a bass of this vintage but does have some signs of use as you'd expect, and a bit of a ding on the bottom. It plays and sounds great. I was half tempted to update the electronics to something modern but as with the Musician, there's really no need! Note: The bass is 34" scale and the finish is "Gun Metallic". It's very light at around 3.7kg. Collection from Margate or I can box it up if you'd like to arrange a courier.
