1976 Fender Precision Bass in Original Natural finish With Original Hard Case
Really nice wood grain for this 1976 Fender Precision Bass.
This 49 years old stunner is very light and makes the perfect player without breaking the bank.
Has been played but it’s still all original and retain the natural factory finish.
Frets were quite worn so it had a professional regret and has no buzz and a nice low action now.
Like most of the natural finished fender from this era , a fair bit of the clear coat peeled but the undercoat and sealant are still intact and in good condition and had some clear poly touch up.
The pickguard retains the original sticker with serial matching the headstock one.
Body and neck stamped armenta which is consider one of the best fender workers of his time.
Pots and pickups dated 1976 with untouched solder joints.
Overall a great instrument with a solid B profile neck and a marvellous tone and a very light and comfortable weight.

1954 Fender Precision Bass – ONE OF THE FIRST 1200 FENDER BASSES EVER MADE
One of the nicest example from the first generation of the Fender Precision Bass. With a graciously aged butterscotch finish, it’s just perfection and plays beautifully as you would expect from one of these 51-54 Pbasses. Detlef Schmidt is the author of what’s considered the most accurate book about the first generation of the Precision Bass, he collected as many serial numbers as he could and this one is featured on his list. The neck has a great patina with the classic finish wear at the back, which is common to these early 40s and 50s Fender instruments. Flat head screw on tuners, neckplate and pick guard as supposed for these. Original covers still there and came with a tweed case that looks like may have been externally modified but looks all original inside, although is hard to confirm. Bass is completely original, with pots perfectly working as well as the black bobbin pickup and the original paper capacitor. It came in with a reissue pickup but the original 1954 black bobbin (which sounds amazing) was inside the tweed case and is now back with the bass and rest of the wiring is untouched. The finish has a gorgeous checking and looks like they patched a couple of extra screws holes (possibly a thumb rest) but they are barely noticeable. Bass is very light and resonant with an incredible sustain due to the string through the body. The pencil dates are unfortunately not legible anymore but the serial of this bass is present on the bridge and can be found on Detlef Schmidt’s book. These early models are becoming incredibly hard to come by and this one is a great example.

PRICE DROPPED – Rare Endangered Audio Research AD4096 MKII Analog Delay
-
A super rare version 2 of the already rare EAR Ad4096. Has been a staple on my board for years but I have recently downsized and doesn’t fit any longer. Took me ages to find one and has been the best delay I have ever used. insanely good. It works with both instrument and line level applications, meaning you can use it for guitar, keyboards, and even pro-audio mixing. The new Mix knob allows you to fade between dry and wet signals – perfect for dialing in just the right amount of delay, or capturing the wet only sound for a mix buss. The Loop jack allows you to add effects inside the delay loop. This means if you put a pitch shifter pedal inside the loop, every time the repeat goes around the loop, it will be transposed again and again. You can even add another AD4096 mk2 (or your old AD4096) inside the delay loop for a multi-tap delay sound. The bypass switch is now buffered to allow for delay tails and looping, and to prevent bypass clicking. The way the bypass switch works is programmed by two of the controls on the DIP switch on the back of the pedal. The Infinity Mode you know and love can now be used as to get the “sound on sound” when using the TAILS DIP switch. The Filter switch applies a fixed high pass filter to the incoming signal before it passes to the delay loop to cut out muddy bass frequencies. Use the Clear dip switch to cut even more low frequency. Expression pedal inputs are provided for the Time, Rate, Depth, Mix and Repeats controls, allowing you to bring life to your performance, and do some really interesting things, including real-time analog pitch bending that sounds like tape warble! An upcoming affordable companion pedal will allow you to store and recall tempos for the delay time through the tap tempo input. You’ll also be able to stay lock-step with your DAW at a precise BPM. You can also send click track from your DAW to the Clock input on the delay pedal. To top it all off, this hand-made, through-hole component, all-analog pedal will have beautiful colored rocker switches and will be housed in a box designed by Endangered Audio Research and handmade locally in the mountains of Asheville, North Carolina. Also, the custom-molded unique rectangle light lens will pulse with the tempo of the delay with a specially-selected LED that looks like a soft white incandescent bulb. FEATURES Knobs: Time – Up to 800ms of delay time Mix – Fades between wet and dry signals Repeats – Controls the amount of feedback in the delay line Depth – Controls the amount of modulation in the delay line Rate – Controls the speed or ratio of the modulation Voice – Adds the AD4096 “ECHO” voice as an independent sub mix that allows some incredibly unique mixing options for the voices. Rocker Switches: Feedback – Switches the feedback loop of the delay line out for many unique effects, pitch bends and chorus without delay Filter – Applies a high-pass filter to the signal as it enters the delay loop (not within the delay loop). Dry signal is unaffected by the filter. Infinity – Turns sound-on-sound infinitely sustaining delay mode on or off. Multitap – sends both BBD outputs to the Repeats and Mix similar to a multi head tape delay. Footswitches: Bypass – Buffered bypass switch. The switch is buffered to allow delay tails and to prevent the dreaded true-bypass clicking. The switch is also softer than a true-bypass switch and smooth and easy to switch. Expand – Soft switch that increases Repeats to 100% at a rate determined by the delay time. This level can be controlled by the Mix. Tempo – Tap Tempo footswitch with ratios Jacks: Input – Audio in Output – Audio out Modulation Rate Expression Pedal – Controls the modulation rate or ratio remotely Modulation Depth Expression Pedal – Controls the modulation depth remotely Clock Input – Accepts external clock signals to sync the delay time Time Expression Pedal – control delay time remotely Repeats Expression Pedal – control repeats remotely Loop – Use an insert cable to patch the delay line through other effects Mix Expression Pedal – control the effect mix remotely Power – Requires industry standard Tip Negative 9VDC 115mA. Power supply not included. Note: When using expression pedals, the control knob on the pedal can be used to scale the range of the expression pedal. DIP Switches: Delay Ratio – programs one of four delay ratios Delay Ratio – programs one of four delay ratios Mod Ratio – Switches the Modulation Rate control between varible and ratio mode Offset – this will offset the modulation waveform relative to the delay time Tails – On/Off Clear – Intensifies the low frequency cut when using the Filter Note: – the two delay ratio switches are used in combination to program tempo ratios 1:1 Quarter Note 3:4 Dotted Eighth 1:3 Eighth Note Triplet 2:3 Quarter Note Triplet Light: Rectangular incandescent-looking white light that indicates on/off state as well as blinking the delay tempo Pedal Dimensions L 162mm (6 1/4″) W 154mm (6″) H 73mm (2 7/8″)

One of the nicest rickenbacker I have ever played , all original , light weight and an absolute stunner.

The neck is slim and action is slow with a superb playability. Classic Ricky thunderous tone with that clarity and growl typical of these instruments.

1968 RICKENBACKER 4003 BASS IN FIREGLO FINISH WITH ORIGINAL HARD CASE
Absurdly rare, these 60s rickenbacker 4001 basses are some of the most sought after instruments on the planet , and for a good reason.
Completely unmolested and inside the original case, this bass is something else.
Crushed pearl inlays, checkerboard binding , toaster pickup, horseshoe pickup, mono jack input , bigger headstock , reversed kluson tuners.
All features only available through the 60s and discontinued the following decade when production ramped up.
Apparently only 83 fireglo 68 4001 were produced and this is a perfect example of the craftmanship and attention to details of those days.
Phenomenal tone, great weight and really nice neck profile.
The original case has seen better days and has been over sprayed but it’s still there and that’s all it matters.
Partial trade alway welcome
