VIEW FULL LIVE VERSION : ABM 4 string (gold; black) and 6 string (black) bridges, Sperzel tuners

Hey guys,

Alright, I'm trying to get rid of a bunch of stuff that either I've had laying around for other projects or that came off my other basses. I keep everything I take off wrapped in bubble wrap and packaged away from the screws so things don't get unnecessarily scratched, damaged or otherwise marred.

Most of this stuff is leftover either from projects, mods, or switches from gold to black hardware. I've never been a fan of gold, and really only like black to be honest, but I seem to acquire instruments with gold hardware too often. Everything is in very good to perfect working order.

All bridges and tuners include all mounting screws/hardware, even if not pictured!

All tuner sets sold whole. I don't want to split up the set because sets of 2 used tuners sell for absolutely nothing if I can ever find a buyer. Whole set only, please! :)

Buyer pays $3 shipping and paypal fees if necessary. If you buy more than one item, shipping is free!

ABM 4 string bridge, $75: I've had this on my Yamaha 4 string for a while, but the bass was very rarely used, and the strings only ever changed once the entire time I've had this bridge on (and that was about a month ago). It's still in absolute brand new condition. In fact, it has less scratches than the new black ABM I got to replace it. :rolleyes:

ABM 6 string bridge, almost new, SMALLER, LIGHTER VERSION, $65[b]: Brass, black. It's Tobias's spec'd ABM bridge, made by ABM, but smaller than the standard 6 string bridge. It is also about 30% lighter- 254g versus 367g. I put up pictures of it next to the larger, standard size ABM to get an idea of it's size. Great for basses where you want an ABM but do not have the space or do not want the weight. It's never even seen a string change! The bolt pattern does match up with a standard ABM, so if you want to switch to a lighter version, this will bolt right up exactly, no changes necessary. Good for color swaps, as well!

[b]Schaller 5 string bridge, SOLD

Yamaha 6 string bridge, SOLD

Tobias 6 string bridge, SOLD

Tobias 4 string bridge, $10: Will get a picture shortly. It's of a different design than the 6 string bridge- more similiar to a Gotoh bridge. It's pretty worn, so I'd do $10 shipped on it happily. It's black., $7


Chrome Hipshot Ultralites, 1/2" post, SOLD

Yamaha (Schaller?) tuners and ferrules, SOLD

Sperzel bass tuners, BASS side, 3x, $45, NEW: Ordered a set of 6, but ended up using guitar sized tuners on the treble side. Hence I have three leftovers! These plus three treble side tuners would work fantastically on a 6 string.

Everything up there that doesn't say "SOLD" on it! What are you looking for?

Ron Now

I remember TB'er Sunbeast was looking for a gold schaller roller bridge a few weeks ago, might want to pm him and see if he'd want it....Don't know if it was a 5 or 4 though... either way this gets a bump.

why don't youhave a nice 5 string BLACK bridge for me?

Angus
03-20-2007, 05:32 PM
Thanks for the tip, Ron! I'll PM him.

Drumsnbass, I DO have a 5 string aluminum Hipshot bridge sitting here, but I'm tempted to keep it because it happens to be the correct color (black). But.... hhhmmm.

Would that gold bridge drop in on a 4 string P-bass? :hmm:

Angus
03-27-2007, 12:46 PM
Yes and no- it definitely fits and will sound great, but you will need to drill 4 holes since the bolt pattern is different. If you take the bass to a luthier to have it done, it'd be about $20 max.

For those who've purchased from me, I will do feedback very soon! I've been really, really busy lately, and it keeps slipping my mind.

Angus
04-11-2007, 02:54 AM
More stuff coming soon, too. I have an ABM bridge for a 6 string that is slightly shorter than the average ABM, so if you like them and brass but want a slightly less massive version, it's for you. I'll post it up here in a bit. Perhaps a few other things.

I also have a Bartolini 3 band, which may already be taken, but if they decide to pass on it I'll put it up here as well.

did almighty pancake just grab them out from under me or are gold tuners left?

Angus
04-16-2007, 05:59 PM
He did- I apologize, as I did not read the thread itself until his "payment sent" post, so I didn't realize anyone had asked about them! It didn't send me an email saying there was an update, so I hadn't checked it. I'm sorry about that!

cosmicevan
