Aye, Fernandes basically copied (*nicked*) the Spector headstock & crown inlays in making this 'Nikki Sixx Spector' copy....

Oooo.... that ash bodied Precision is lovely. I'd be all over that if I hadn't just put my name down for a different Precision.... Good luck with the sale! These two shouldn't be up for long....! -
[quote name='Tee' post='94519' date='Nov 26 2007, 01:26 PM']I was in the bass cellar (Denmark St.) the other day and they have a white/black 70s CIJ for £799 That's more than i paid new for my USA model [/quote] Yep, they sure know how to price competitively eh? You can save £360 on that by buying direct from Ishibashi...! -
PM'd!

Some great basslines..... and a killer tone. He generally used the same basses live & in the studio..... his Spectors and an old P-bass.

Beautiful bass! Congrats!

[quote name='dave_bass5' post='80692' date='Oct 29 2007, 09:39 AM']Hey Guys. Im trying to order a bass from Ishibashi but am stuck on the ordering page. Ive filled all the details in other than the Instalment box. Not sure what that is. Im gussing its the amount but do any of you know if it is? Cheers. going for this one in VWH. Not sure about the colour, would prefer OWH but its cheaper than getting the 50's classic. [url="http://www.ishibashi.co.jp/webshop/guitar/fender-j/pb6270us.htm"]PB62-78US[/url][/quote] If I were you I'd get this one.... even if it takes a little longer to arrive. Why potentially be disappointed for the sake of a few weeks wait? It's the same price... same body details..... and Olympic White....

[quote name='OldGit' post='78856' date='Oct 24 2007, 02:35 PM']so is the Denmark street one a MIA or a CIJ? CraftedinJapan.co.uk can do that for £540 inc delivery. [url="http://craftedinjapan.co.uk/photo_995461.html"]Here[/url] or this "brand new just arrived never used" one may be still for sale [url="http://forums.pineapster.co.uk/viewtopic.php?=&p=444492"]http://forums.pineapster.co.uk/viewtopic.php?=&p=444492[/url] May save a few quids[/quote] It's CIJ. The link to CraftedInJapan shows the rosewood one. I'm after a maple one The bass in that final link was sold a while back, cheers anyway!

[quote name='dave_bass5' post='78848' date='Oct 24 2007, 02:29 PM']I dont suppose you saw any 50's classics in HB did you? Im still confused about all this White stuff. On the Ishibashi site the PB70-78US seems to be showing as White (of some sort) but the actual model colour seems to be OWB which as we know is not as white. This is putting me off. I really llike the Arctic white without any hint of yellow. Ill go and have a look tomorrow.[/quote] Sorry, not sure on 50's classics.... I wasn't really looking for them... I think you're confused. The PB70-78US on Ishibashi is OWH (Olympic White) and this is exactly what it is.... full on white with NO hint of yellow!

I have a Staccato MG bass. One of only approx 35 made I believe.... Nice bass, but it sits in my collection and isn't used live....

Just went into the Bass Cellar in Denmark St, London & they've got two 'vintage white' JB75-100US basses in there at £775 each That's £250 more than you could expect to pay (including delivery and ALL taxes/handling) if ordered direct from Ishibashi (approx £520)! Crazy..... The good news is that the 'Vintage White' is actually more a light cream colour (aged white) than the sort of yellow illustrated above. I think that's made my mind up. After Xmas, Ishibashi here I come! They also had the PB70-78US in 'Olympic White' (real white!) priced at £775 too! This is even more crazy as you can get one (inc delivery/all taxes/handling etc) from Ishibashi for approx £425 (£350 cheaper!!)
