AndyTravis Posted July 6, 2020 Posted July 6, 2020 (edited) We’ve started the Garage conversion and There’s been a lot going on at Travis Towers with family etc, so I want to rationalise my gear - I will certainly be shifting some more gear on in the next month. I have a Marcus Miller being modified into the ultimate MM, with a Sadowsky Preamp and some other mods. I aim to keep both - but will consider a Sale if someone’s after a white one. They don’t come up often and I got this one in April from Portugal. This is a very clean 2004 MIJ Miller. Theres one small dink in the front above the 70’s thumbrest position - it’s like a thumbnail indentation, but not horrific. Also - as I’ve seen a few times on OWT Fenders with ash bodies, in the cutaways there’s a little discolouration - I’m not sure what causes this, I suppose it could be sealer coat being thinner in the cutouts. Plays superb, I might raise the action a midge as since I put sadowsky 40-100 on it last week, it’s buzzing a tiny bit at the 1st fret. Weight is just over 9lbs, will dig out my luggage scales when the kids are in bed. Will come with a nice Tokai padded bag, which is actually a very nice item - never seen one before. It’s worth noting that I’ve changed the pickup covers for solid ones - I will include the original ones too. Only interested in a sale. Will entertain a Yamaha BB414/424x at £150-£200 as a partial trade, depending on condition. Would much prefer collection - but will post at buyers cost - will be about £20 posted in the UK, more if insurance is required. We can sort the details out if required.

mep Posted July 6, 2020 Posted July 6, 2020 That's nice. I borrowing a MM Jazz from a mate. Wow, what a bass. I'm really impressed and an Gassing for one but must restrain myself. GLWS.

AndyTravis Posted July 12, 2020 Author Posted July 12, 2020 Forgot to say I’ve got sound clips of this bass - can whatsapp them over - predictably sounds quite miller esque 😂 Still here for now 😉

AndyTravis Posted July 17, 2020 Author Posted July 17, 2020 Had a lovely trade offer today - but I should add I don’t play 5’s/6’s, I have a fretless (gathering dust again) and I have tried and ended up not enjoying short scales. Bump
AndyTravis Posted July 21, 2020 Author Posted July 21, 2020 Right - @bassfan has wanted this since the day I got it. So it’s his. buy his natural miller instead @hiram.k.hackenbacker
