Greetings!

Well, I'm putting up three basses for sale. After stumbling around my room cluttered with basses and cases and more coming in, I'm come to the conclusion that I just have more stuff than I can currently justify. All play great and are certainly gig-worthy -- I've just got too many basses right now.

First up:

Fender Squire Active Deluxe 5. Black, in VG condition. On-hold pending F-T-F delivery and payment

Peavey USA Millennium 5. Trans Blue with Pao board. Comes with Gator soft/hard case. VG condition $550 shipped CONUS
http://www.talkbass.com/forum/showthread.php?t=337672

Brazil-made exotic wood Singlecut 5. Just bought this and worked on it a bit. Plays great, great sound, balances well. Fair condition. $500 shipped CONUS.
http://www.talkbass.com/forum/showthread.php?t=374171&highlight=Brazil

NO trades please

I'll gladly take a hit on my combo price to trade all three, say, for a hotrodded JO5, DJ5 or a Valenti. For a quick sale, I'd do the Brazillian and the Millennium for $1050 shipped CONUS or all three for $1275 shipped CONUS.
Five-strings only, please. [/COLOR]

Pix up this evening or tomorrow.

Thanks!

I've got to ask. You just bought that brazilian bass a little ago, right? Why are you unloading it so soon?

I've got to ask. You just bought that brazilian bass a little ago, right? Why are you unloading it so soon?

A perfectly legitimate question. And a perfectly legitimate answer, at least around here.

In a word...GAS!

I just spoke for Quad's Shoreline Gold Marcus Miller 5 and now I gotta pay for it. I was seriously jones-ing for the black Marcus that sold a while back, but I couldn't raise the cash. Plus, since it's uber-rare in SG, I figure I can always move it if (read: when) the time comes

The Brazilian, the Millennium 5, and the Squier Active Deluxe 5 are the only basses that I would really consider selling. Plus, I was up to 11 basses and am literally falling over them in my room (no s**t)! I can actually cure GAS and make room at the same time.

If I hadn't just plunked down the cash for a fretless 6 I'd probably take a chance and buy that Brazilian made 5.

Bump for a helluva guy and a swell dancer.

FTR, The Millenium 5 is in mint condition and I mean not a blemish anywhere. String spacing is tad tighter than a Cirrus but very comfortable. Also sports sweepable mids...great preamp.

Hey if I didn't already have 2 more of the Brazilian basses I would have never let this one go. Can't beat the price.

What is the string spacing on the Squier? Pics?

dcr
11-17-2007, 02:28 PM
I'll have to check, but I think 19mm. It's already packed to tonight's gig, or I'd go check and let you know. Should be on the Squier/Fender website, though.


As far as pix go, it looks pretty much like a new one. A few niggles and a couple small dings, but I doubt they'll photograph against the shiny black finish. And if it doesn't sell to the TBer that's asked for it, I'll be posting pix late tomorrow afternoon.

Thanks for the interest!

Hi,

Is your exotic SC5 sold? If not, how wide is the string espacement?
How much would cost the shipping for France? Are you OK for paypal?
thanks a lot

NO, the SC is not sold.

String spacing is somewhere around 17mm -- very comfortable.

Yes, I'll ship to France. Or anywhere else as long as the seller is okay with paying duties, taxes, and tarrifs. I will not list as a "gift" or "parts" to attempt to bypass any fees on your end. Sorry, but this is my personal policy. No exceptions. Hope that you understand.

It will go UPS or USPS overseas. CONUS is FedEx. As far as cost, I'd have to figure that up. But I certainly will and get back to you. If it goes overseas, I will include a beat-up hard case to aid in safety during transport. Nothing to look at and I wouldn't use it, but it'll help in shipping protection.

PayPal....hmmm. E-check perhaps, but I'd rather have a USPS Money Order or wire transfer.

D. people wonder about the Brazilian basses who have improved a great deal since he started selling them. I'm putting Ken Smith electronics in my 5 string and barts in my 6.

What is the sound like on the SC5? What does this wood combo sound like?

dcr
11-19-2007, 08:17 AM
Sounds like a modern "P" bass. Big and fat, but with enough top end to have plenty of clarity, too.

And it's dead quiet, noise-wise.

It's a shame that S.C. only has one pup, or I'd be all over it.

Okay, here's a special deal.

NEXT WEEK ONLY (11/26 - 11/29) and CASH OR USPS MONEY ORDER ONLY:

I gotta go to Dallas next week for work, so I'll do the Brazil bass delivered F-T-F in D/FW for $485 and the Millennium for $525.

I'll be staying/working in the Grand Prairie and Arlington area, so I'd prefer somewhere on that side of town. I'm not too familiar with the "Big D" metro area.

Since I'm driving myself, I can also extend that offer to anyone along the I-20 corridor between Dallas and Shreveport on Thursday/Friday, depending when I come back.

C'mon guys! Hit me up with an offer. Looks like I may not have to sell both, but I gotta move one.

One goes -- one stays. All depends on what sells first.

Offers?

To the top!

FWIW, the Squire is Out For Delivery. Unless something funky goes down, it should be gone.

Squire picked up and paid for.

Brazil bass on hold for a F-T-F- delivery to giantjerk next week.

This means that I'll get to keep the Millennium for a while. WooHoo!

Thread closed.

Thanks TB!
