** UPDATE: Shipping fee now included in the price. Selling my Hofner HCT Contemporary Club Bass, in beautiful condition. The control plate was upgraded to the German one, and it will be delivered with LaBella tapes strings installed + the LaBella flats that were on the bass before the tapes...

I've just replaced the factory ceramic capacitor for a vintage NOS Wima 0.1uF paper foil capacitor from the 60s. Before: After:

Hey! If you don't mind me asking, where did you get the blank truss rod cover? I've read the german one (H65/37) is not compatible with this bass and I'd love to do the same upgrade to my club bass. Thanks!

I don't currently own a proper weighting tool, but depending on the mood of my very inaccurate luggage scale between 8.5 and 9.0 pounds.

Sorry about that, I somehow understood it was an amp. In this case, you're absolutely right, there's no purpose on using the fx loop on this pedal if using the preamp out, other that wasting cable of course.

Not a stupid question at all: FX Loops are usually line level so if the chorus pedal does not have a lot of headroom (like for example, most analog pedals) it will overdrive the signal. For digital pedals or rack gear it should be ok (and probably best) to use the fx loop, but it's not a rule...

Nice people of this lovely club, would anybody here (unlike me, with proper tools and a safe working space) be willing to help me ream the mounting holes of my control plate from whatever they are now to 3/8"? I just don't like the feeling of the alpha pots I put in there but all proper pots...

Here’s mine:

Sansamp Bass Driver DI v1 - This is the excellent very first version of this pedal (90s), almost mint condition, just a couple of very small dents here and there. Velcro on the back of the unit. It will be delivered with original box and papers (even the manual with sample settings). - $140.00...

EHX Russian Big Muff (Sovtek) - Last released version of this pedal (2000s), excellent condition, just a couple of very small scratches, with original knobs and battery door. It will be delivered in its original box. It looks like the the previous owner replaced the footswitch (they tend to...

Crowther Audio Prunes & Custard - Very first version of this pedal (early 2000s), not a single scratch on the unit, like new condition with original box and papers - $220.00 USD, shipping Included to ConUS

** Weight Updated: 8.7lb ** ** Price Updated: $1350 USD ** ** Capacitor Updated: Vintage NOS Wima 0.1uF from the 60s ** I decided to do just one last attempt at selling this bass as I'm kind of regretting selling it due to the general lack of interest and me not willing to push the price into...

I went for Curtis Novak (normals, not the fat ones), the vintage sized are a perfect fit for the Vintera II. The factory pickups sounded a little weak and lacked a bit of definition IMHO.

Thank you all for your answers! After a couple of years of thinking about switching from Precision to Mustang, I finally took the leap with a Vintera II and I coudn’t be happier! I had to upgrade some things (shielding, electronics, flats and pickups) but it’s now the best bass I’ve ever played...
