Bought a retrovibe bass from Ash. Great chatting with him and good bass. Deal with confidence

How wide is the nut? 

Oh, I love these. I've had 3 (2 Korean and 1 German). And I'm in Rugby tomorrow morning. Decisions, decisions..............

Sold an ABY pedal to Dunc. Easy transaction. An absolute pleasure.

I bought this as I couldn't find my Lehle ABY pedal, but as soon as this was delivered and put on my pedal board I found it, so this has never been used.

Fender's ABY footswitch with passive switcher allows you to plug a single guitar into two amplifiers or plug two guitars into a single amplifier, making it easy and convenient to create a rig with eminent flexibility and a variety of tone options.

True hardwire bypass in the off position lets players retain their natural tone without interference or signal loss.

"A or B" and "A and B" switching options allow for greater versatility within your rig.

Durable metal chassis and switches withstand onstage wear and tear.

LED illumination requires 9-volt battery or power source.

Velcro on the back

In original packaging.

I had this when I owned a Rickenbacker and it totally eliminated all the hum. 

Absolutely eliminates hum from any audio source. Not a noise gate and not a suppressor. Dead silence in your signal chain courtesy of a little EH magic.

True bypass

Tough and compact die-cast chassis

You'd need to be a fairly capable woodworker to fit in a 5th tuning peg - Paul didn't post a picture of the back, but the tuners sit in a deep recess which would need to be enlarged, they're fairly closely packed together as it is.

I’ve seen these before, and the tuner routing etc would be easy. It’s just a shame it isn’t a couple of mm wider at the nut end. 

I love these. Wondering whether I can convert it to a 5 string with that 42mm nut?

I bought this earlier this year (used from B.D) but I haven't used it as it's more powerful than I'll ever need  down the 'Dog n Duck' and it takes up too much space just sitting here collecting dust. 

Postage may be a problem, but get in touch and I'm sure something can be worked out.

I'm still not clear if this is the MS or SMS version. A photo of the back of the 'headstock' may have this printed on.

Can you tell me the width of the nut (and string spacing). Love to do a 5 string conversion

I bought this last month for £2199 from Bass Direct but I owe HMRC more than I happen to have, so it has to go.

Oh, I’m so tempted, especially as you are coming over to London. I’ve just bought a 5 string 30 inch Joker 5 and it’s the best bass I have ever owned. The chance to own another Mesinger is so tempting. I’ll have to lie down and have a think
