  1. Not with the burst, no, but the white is right!
  2. Aha, missed that! Still no price that I can find yet...

    Hi Hi!

    Howdy!
  7. [quote name='waynepunkdude' post='1291311' date='Jul 3 2011, 07:05 PM']You take that back young man.[/quote] Oh nonono. Not with MY back...
  8. Pointless bass gear? 1) Ampeg SVT rigs. So much weight for so little benefit... 2) Any exotic wood bass, cheap or pricey. Just needs to be a slab of reasonable painted wood to do its job. 3) Pointless dissing of Fenders. OK, they are utterly my thing, but aside from that, very few people have ever done [b][i]anything, in any field[/i][/b], which is still the basic standard and is still essentially unchanged, and still in production, after 60 years. No other bass is anything but evolutionary, and the most evolutionary of those was Alembic (for the electronics), and they are not exactly new either, are they? All else essentially stems from those two bass families.
  9. Howdy, from someone at a [i]considerable[/i] distance from Aberdeen!

  11. Howdy all, nice big gig at The Wharf tomight. Space to rock out! And a 16kW PA to do it through! Yes!
  12. [quote name='brensabre79' post='1287963' date='Jun 30 2011, 04:46 PM']Just add a switch to wire the two J pickups in series Like the fender s-1 switch (completely reversible mod that will cost a couple of quid for the switch/pot). And play it over the neck pickup (as you would on a precision) Thats about as close as you'll get without routing and putting in a split P pickup. Adding any amount of active electronics will not a Precision make! I've done this to my Jazz and I use this setting for Stranglers/Blondie/Clash etc. covers - sounds pretty convincing to me and I'm a qualified sound engineer![/quote] That's the closest you're gonna get. Do the S1 mod.
  13. Howdy! Precision, of course!

    Hello

    Howdy!
  15. Yes, if only because it's smaller! It's done a 400-punter venue at less than half volume...with no PA support.
  16. Welcome!
  17. I use Precisions with flats into a Markbass 1x12 CMD121H and a 1x12 extension. Big rigs are gone!
  18. Hi Adam, that's a great little rig. When I came out of retirement, my amp was a new, UK-built EB15-150. It's still going strong, so far as I know! Add a MAG115Deep for a great medium power stack!
  19. Howdy! Also sold my share of old Fenders (75 P, 68 Jazz, 69 Telebass), and regretted two of the three. The Jazz was a dog... Happily playing MIM and MIJ Precisions now!
  20. Greetings, Oleg, that looks good!
  21. Like I said, the serials were used more than once for some instruments, so it can be a problem. But they were not introduced until '89.
  22. Fairly limited range by then, basically Sunburst, White, Black, Blond, Natural, Walnut. Antigua had also reared its head by 78.
  23. They are Fenders (Japan, '91 - '94). Not many around...
  24. All Lytes Japanese. starting '89. The serial number anomaly is common on Japanese Fenders. My MIJ JD Telecaster, at first glance, was an 83, but was in fact, a '96 (there were no 83 JDs). Some considerable time after I bought it, I noticed the '96 Anniversary sticker on the back of the headstock. Dumb, or what?
  25. Howdy! Nice place, Brighton. Went there last year for my niece's wedding - most impressed.
