I sold a bass to @uncle psychosis. It was a really enjoyable experience and everything was agreed and completed without a hitch. Sam is a top guy, good-humoured, excellent comms, and I enjoyed discussing all things bass with him. I would recommend Sam to other Basschatters without hesitation. Thanks again Sam and I hope enjoy your new bass!

*PRICE DROP* £315 Really great version of the highly regarded Squier 40th anniversary series. The blonde wash is nicely done and some wood grain can be seen but none of the ugly streaking that affected other models. This is great sounding and playing P bass. Lightweight at 8.5lbs/3.7kg It is in mint condition. All stock parts. Selling to fund a new purchase, so no trades, thanks. Happy to ship anywhere in the UK, at the buyer's expense. Approx. cost would be £20.

*PRICE DROP - £650* * Free UK Postage now included* This is a lovely bass in metallic alpine with cream binding on the body and neck 30 inch scale, lightweight, great fun to play and delivers huge P bass thunder! The three way toggle allows you to switch very quickly between a deep, dub type tone (neck position), full, throaty P (middle) and a brighter, more modern sounding P (bridge). This is a passive bass and all the magic is done using capacitors. Bought from Merchant City in Glasgow. All stock parts; the neck laquer has been removed with wire wool. Smooth as... and lovely to play. In good condition - couple of dings and two small chips either side of the bottom strap button but nothing major. Included in the sale is a Protection Racket deluxe gig bag which is top quality and provides superb protection. I have moved back to 34 inch scale and this just doesn't get the same use anymore. Selling to fund a new purchase, so no trades, thanks. These don't come up for sale very often, so if you fancy a professional level, great sounding and playing short scale, give me a shout.

Reduced to £280 These are superb basses from the Squier 40th anniversary, vintage series and are well known on Basschat Very nicely finished, and sounds great, delivering a real throaty jazz growl. This one is in excellent condition. According to my suitcase scales, this weighs 10lbs. A substantial bass but not a boat anchor. Selling to fund a new purchase and not interested in any trades, thanks. Please note this sale is for the bass only - no case or gig bag is included. Happy to post anywhere in the UK with the buyer covering the cost of postage. Alternatively, collection in person (about 30 miles from Newry/20 miles from Belfast).

Now reduced to £555 Fantastic bass with custom pickups designed by Reverend which sound MASSIVE – split brick in the neck position and a thick brick in the bridge. The blend knob is intuitive and allows you to find your tone really easily. Roasted maple, satin neck with some nice flaming; 12 inch radius which is really nice to play. The bass is in very good condition with a few little marks/dings, some swirling on the scratchplate, and some genuine buckle rash for that extra mojo! Not interested in any trades, thanks. Please note this sale is for the bass only - no case or gig bag is included. Happy to post anywhere in the UK with the buyer covering the cost of postage. Will be packaged in its original box, with all the case candy. Alternatively, collection in person (about 30 miles from Newry/20 miles from Belfast).

Thanks Bassmidget. I have a Mercalli but have always wanted to try a TG. I like the new colours and you know how it is when you get a guitar fixation. Have tried to sell my Mercalli on here but used market seems tough atm and had little interest. What did you think of the new TG colours having seen them in person?
-
Has anyone been able to compare a TG to a Mercalli? Same pickups but different construction..Just wondering if there's a significant difference.

Thanks for the heads up. Ordered! I use these on all my basses, so pleased to get a real bargain. -

I asked virtually the same question for the same bass a few weeks ago. I resisted the urge to buy and just put new strings on and tweaked my amp and IEM EQ and that did the trick. If I was using cabs on stage though, that might be a different story. I was leaning towards the DM P or GZR. Good luck with your search and let us know your experience if you do change them.

Cool looking bass. Enjoy!

Fender Made in Japan 2024 Collection Hybrid II Jazz Bass PJ
sPiKi replied to sPiKi's topic in Bass Guitars
I think in an older Andertons' video where they demoed the V1 Hyrids, they said it referred to vintage looks with modern features (sustain block under the bridge but not sure what else from memory). Still interested to hear a good quality recording of the new Jazz PJ. -
Thanks for the heads up, miles'tone. Hadn't heard of Toneriders before. It's back to the drawing board!
