For Sale is one of my favourite basses to cut a long story short the neck got broken so I am very unhappy so I have decided to sell the body I have removed the pickups as I want these for my replacement bass all the electrics and pots are still wired in to the control panel and the jack socket and its associated wiring is there also I would like to keep the control panel knobs but if you really need them let me know and I will include them, the bridge is also still on the bass and is also included as is the chrome scratch plate this bass had strap locks on but I have now put the original strap pins back on (they could use a match stick putting in as the strap lock screws were a touch bigger. Anyway I would like £40 for this please everything is included with this except the pickups and bridge :)

Sorry to hear about the neck breakage, I've got a Scorpio and they're fantastic basses. Considering that the pickups alone would cost pretty much this price this is a bargain for a very cool project bass!

Sorry to see this posted.

How wide is the neck pocket, please? I'm well aware that Peavey necks are thin, and not often seen on their own.

Have you not tried the neck from your Peavey Millennium Bass on it to see if it would work? That's what I would try then sell off the loaded body from the Millennium bass :)
If I had a spare £110 I'd snap this up as I'm a huge DE fan. Is there anything you'd take in trade for it?

Good luck dude and sorry to hear about the neck

That's fair enough mate, I totally understand you not wanting to do that. I've literally just been scouring eBay for bass necks haha.

Thanks mate. Wondering if it would suit a nice fretless maple J neck... heresy, for sure, and I'd have to break it to move it on, but even so...

Would it look horrible? I can't see what it would look like.

Bloody hell, Paul, how did you manage to break the neck???

Is it a terminal break or one that could be repaired by a respectable luthier?
I know a guy who snapped the head off a Les Paul and managed to get it repaired, you can't tell there was ever an issue with it now.

I'm so tempted to take this but I need to buy a bass head! i've got some Seymour Duncan Steve Harris pick ups that would go perfect in this AND a high mass bridge!
Is there ANYTHING you would be interested to take in trade? maple P bass neck? Dimarzio Will Power neck pick up?
