Bump for the one & only price drop - now £200 (If it doesn't sell at this I'll find some way of keeping it!!)

NOW SOLD!! We're in the process of relocating & as our new home is a lot smaller I won't have the room to keep all of my bass collection (the collection has got out of hand anyway!) so I'm selling off most of my basses. This one has been a tough decision. I bought this new on a whim in June of this year as I've always loved Jazz basses but as I really only play short scale basses now I'm reluctantly going to let this go. I paid over £300 for it & the cheapest I could find it new is £308. It is in as new condition, I can't see any marks on it anywhere but I've only played it a couple of times at rehearsals. As you would expect it plays really nicely & sounds like a Jazz should.It does not come with a case or gig bag as I don't have any spares left. These are the specs & I've included a link to some pics below (taken with my smartphone so they're not the best!):[list] [*]Color: Olympic White [*]Body Material: Soft Maple [*]Body Finish: Polyurethane [*]Body Shape: Jazz Bass [*]Neck Material: Maple [*]Neck Finish: Vintage Tint Gloss [*]Neck Shape: "C" Shape [*]Scale Length: 34" (864 mm) [*]Fingerboard: Maple [*]Fingerboard Radius: 9.5" (241 mm) [*]Number of Frets: 20 [*]Fret Size: Medium Jumbo [*]String Nut: Synthetic Bone [*]Nut Width: 1.5" (38.1 mm) [*]Position Inlays: Block [*]Bridge Pickup: Fender-Designed Single-Coil Jazz Bass [*]Middle Pickup: Fender-Designed Single-Coil Jazz Bass [*]Controls: Volume 1. (Middle Pickup), Volume 2. (Bridge Pickup), Master Tone [*]Pickup Configuration: SS [*]Bridge: 4-Saddle Standard [*]Hardware Finish: Chrome [*]Tuning Machines: Standard Open-Gear [*]Pickguard: 3-Ply Black [*]Strings: Fender USA Super Bass 7250ML, NPS, (.045-.100 Gauges) [/list] I no longer post basses out after having problems previously with a couple of basses being damaged by couriers so I'm afraid it is collection only. However this can be collected from my workplace in Leicester (I can be available most evenings except weekends but unfortunately you won't be able to play it through an amp there - If you want to try it out I can bring my Pandora & headphones & you can play it through that) [b]or[/b] can be collected from my house near Norwich during weekends where you can try it out through my amp (I would need a few days notice though so I can retrieve it and the amp from where they're stored).

Quick bump with a price drop.

Yes Dazza - 30.5" (775mm) [quote name='dazza14' timestamp='1479116051' post='3173951'] Is this a short scale? [/quote]

Hi, I am going to be selling a lot of my collection of basses as we are having my music room (AKA The garage) converted into another living room so space to keep my gear will be limited & some of them have already had to be stored at my parents house. I have this lovely Harley Benton HB-60 Semi-Acoustic bass for sale which I bought around 18 months ago. These are surprisingly good quality basses & I was really surprised by how nicely it plays & it does the vintage sound really well. I think it would sound fantastic with a set of flatwounds on it - I just never got round to doing it. It's a really nice looking bass too. I've only used it for a couple of rehearsals with my band as I now have an EB3 that I use so it is as new (they're £213 new from Thomann) & I can't see any marks on it anywhere. These are the specs taken from the Thomann web site:[list] [*]Vintage Series [*]Build type: Hollow body [*]Body: Maple with arched top [*]Neck: Canadian maple, set-in [*]Neck profile: C [*]Fretboard: Rosewood [*]Thumb fretboard inlays [*]22 Frets [*]Scale: 775 mm [*]Nut width: 43 mm [*]Cream-coloured body and neck bindings [*]Double action truss rod [*]Pickups: 2 vintage humbuckers [*]1 Tone knob [*]2 Volume knobs [*]3-Way toggle switch [*]Hardware: Chrome [*]Wooden bridge [*]Trapeze tailpiece [*]Comes with strings: 050 - 105 [*]Colour: Walnut brown [*]Finish: High gloss [/list] It does not come with a case or gig bag & I no longer post basses out after previously having problems with a couple of my basses being damaged by couriers so I'm afraid it is collection only. However this can be collected from my workplace in Leicester (I can be available weekday evenings but unfortunately you won't be able to play it through an amp there - If you want to try it out I can bring my Pandora & headphones & you can play it through that) [b]or[/b] it can be collected from my house near Norwich during the weekend where you can try it out through my amp (I would need a few days notice though so I can retrieve it and the amp from where they're stored).

Now sold - Thanks Lloyd Hi, I am going to be selling a lot of my collection of basses as we are having my music room (AKA The garage) converted into another living room so space to keep my gear will be limited & some of them have already had to be stored at my parents house. I have this nice violin bass for sale. I bought this on eBay around three years ago from a seller claiming that it was an Antoria. It has an Antoria decal on the headstock but I'm 99% certain that it isn't (I don't know why anyone would want to fake an Antoria though?). I've certainly never seen any pictures of Antoria violin basses that look the same as this. Anyway I tried the bass & liked it so bought it anyway. Having said that it does play really nicely & does the violin bass sound very well. It's in very good condition with a nice vintage vibe but has been gigged so expect a few marks commensurate with this although there's nothing that is that noticeable. The nut width is 42mm & scale length 30.5 inches. It does not come with a case or gig bag & I no longer post basses out after previously having problems with a couple of my basses being damaged by couriers so I'm afraid it is collection only.

BUMP for Pics added & price drop

PM'd

Price drop to £130 to move this on & I've added some pics taken from a smartphone so they're not the best. The blue is in reality a deeper blue than the pics show - it really is a nice looking & playing bass. Hi, I have an ESP LTD B-55FM five string active bass for sale. I bought this new from Andertons for £254 for a band reunion that unfortunately (for me anyway) didn't happen. I purposely bought this model after searching for a decent 5 string bass with a thin neck as I only play four string basses these days but most of our old songs required a 5 string. The nut width is 43mm - if you like cricket bat necks this bass probably isn't for you. It has a beautiful blueburst finish (ESP call it see-thru blue) with a flamed maple top - I think this colour is now discontinued. Specs are as follows:[list] [*]Bolt-On Construction [*]34" Scale [*]Basswood Body [*]Flamed Maple Top [*]Maple Neck [*]Rosewood Fingerboard [*]43mm Standard Nut [*]Thin U Neck Contour [*]24 XJ Frets [*]Chrome Hardware [*]ESP Tuners [*][size=4][font=arial,helvetica,sans-serif]ESP DB-5 Bridge[/font][/size] [*][size=4][font=arial,helvetica,sans-serif]ESP LDJ (B) / LDP (N) p.u.[/font][/size] [*]ESP ATB-1 Active Tone Boost [*]Controls: Neck Volume, Bridge Volume, Balance [/list] I only used this for two rehearsals with the band before deciding not to continue with them so it's had very little use. It does not come with a case or gig bag as I don't have any spares left. I no longer post basses out after having problems previously with a couple of basses being damaged by couriers so I'm afraid it is collection only. However this can be collected from my workplace in Leicester (I can be available most evenings except weekends but unfortunately you won't be able to play it through an amp there - If you want to try it out I can bring my Pandora & headphones & you can play it through that) [b]or[/b] can be collected from my house near Norwich during weekends where you can try it out through my amp (I would need a few days notice though so I can retrieve it and the amp from where they're stored).

Back up for sale bump

[quote name='Russ' timestamp='1445895733' post='2895233'] Just checked my old PMs - this is my old bass. I sold it to you back in January 2014! Buyers - this is a bloody good P-bass for the money, so someone snap it up quick before I buy it back... [/quote] Thanks Russ - yes it is a great bass & it looks as though it's now sold. I must admit I'm reluctantly selling it but I'm not playing anymore & I can't forsee me playing any time soon.

Just a little bump

[quote name='pbasspecial' timestamp='1445693742' post='2893482'] Cheap as the proverbial bag of chips! GLWTS. [/quote] Thanks mate!
