This is one of a small batch of ex-Frankfurt guitar show Hofners that we're selling as new with full warranty but have small marks on them hence the special prices - we've tried to show any marks as best...

£ 2,199.00 £ 2,389.00Rickenbacker 4003S Jetglo Bass Guitar
This guy has a massive sound, and the beauty of the vintage push pull switch is that if you want that classic bright Rickenbacker sound from the 60s, it's there - and if you want a more modern deeper tone, it's there too. Also it's in black, which goes with everything and is very slimming.

£ 2,199.00 £ 2,389.00Rickenbacker 4003S Bass Fireglo
Talk about a fat sounding bass - this hunk of meat sure sounds fantastic. Very comfy to play with the satin neck, a choice of either the modern sound or vintage sound from a push-pull switch, and the classic look of fireglo. Massive.

£ 969.00 £ 1,069.00Fender Player Plus Active Jazz Bass Aged...
This bass is just a bit extra. A super fast satin neck, lovely rolled edges on the fingerboard, the HiMass bridge for extra sustain and resonance and of course the active Jazz pickups for when you need to get to 11. The aged CAR is great too, and the bass comes with a deluxe Fender gig bag.

£ 573.00Guild Starfire 1 Bass Vintage Walnut
This bass sounds great. It obviously looks great, and you'd need to come in (unless you trust me on this) but honestly, the tone is cracking. It's got a great low end, it sparkles, the mids are fantastic. It's just bloody brilliant.

£ 479.00Cort C4 Plus OVMH Antique Brown Burst Bass...
Why this bass isn't another £300 more expensive is beyond us. Bartolini pickups, a Markbass preamp, that amazing ozangkol, mahogany and maple triple threat. Stunning.

£ 399.00 £ 439.00Squier Classic Vibe Late 50s Precision...
If J Mascis ever had a signature bass... this would be it. The anodised pickguard with the white blonde body just looks incredible. And Classic Vibes sound as Classic Vibes look - pretty bloody good, and not far off from the standard of a Mexican Fender (although that's a discussion for an internet forum I imagine). A quality P Bass nonetheless, with...

£ 375.00 £ 419.00Squier FSR Classic Vibe 60s Mustang Bass...
Basses are too big - it's just a fact of life. It's why the Mustang bass exists. With a 30" scale length and a nice comfy C shaped neck profile, this bass is easy to play, and thanks to the Fender alnico split single coil pickups, it sounds great too. Not only that, it has a go faster stripe, so you can play faster - fact (maybe).

£ 319.00Aria DMB-01 Diamond Bass Old Candy Apply Red
Why yes, this does look like a ridiculous chunky bass - and it certainly wins in the Big Boy prize category - but it sure sounds good too! With 2 FB-1 single coil pickups and a maple neck, this bass has a great bright sound to it, and really cuts through the mix.
£ 319.00 -
£ 299.00Cort Action DLX V Plus Bass Guitar Faded...

£ 269.00Squier Affinity Series Jazz Bass V Olympic...
Five strings good, four strings bad? That's probably a debate for another time, but if you want the extra extra low sound of the Jazz Bass on a budget, this is the guy for you.

£ 249.00Squier Affinity Jazz Bass Burgundy Mist
Want that classic Fender Jazz Bass tone without splashing the cash? Get on board with the Affinity series from Squier. Squier have really impressed us with the latest batch of both the Affinity series and the Classic Vibe series, and this guy plays and sounds fantastic.

£ 239.00Squier Affinity Jaguar Bass H Charcoal...
A great starter bass for those on their low frequency journey.This single humbucking pickup bass guitar is also a fantastic entry point into the Fender range - where things can get really tasty. Not to say this isn't a nice amuse bouche, the 32" scale means the Jag is easy to play as it's a bit smaller than the full scale length you get from P Basses and...

£ 169.00Cort Action Junior Bass Guitar Open Pore...
Excellent short scale bass for a younger player or the vertically challenged. With a poplar body, Canadian hard maple neck and a Powersound PSDXH1-4 pickup.
