  1. Oh yes, it's certainly not all original, but the pickguard might still be around. The EQ is not the original one, knobs and pots I believe have been changed by a previous owner. The body, neck, tuners, bridge, EQ plate and copper sheilding is all original as far as I know.
  2. University of life. Find a band, and do hundreds of gigs, there's no better way of learning than that. Sorry if that's no good to you , I've had a few scoops tonight, but I still believe it's the only way to learn.
  3. Nice lump of wood there Steve, which plate fits it best from those few I had?
  4. Sorry mate, PM'd. Has anyone got a CIJ 51 RI P bass they want to unload?
  5. Gasp.....I've seen plenty of Overwaters in my time, but that's the sexiest one I've seen by a country mile. Stunning.
  6. All PMs replied to I [i]think[/i].
  7. Thanks everyone for the offers/PMs, I've never had so many, so it'll take a while to reply to them all. Trade wise, well, I'm open minded, but another Precision would be nice, condition and colour not important as long as it plays well, MIJ/CIJ would be great. Passive is definately best for me at this time though. This jazz is a nice old thing, like I say with some wear and tear, and some kind of faint colouring on the reverse of the neck, as though someone has previously used magic marker to mark the fret positions on the rear, no idea why, but it's very faint and doesn't affect the playability in any way, and there's certainly no lacquer damage, I just want to be honest. I tried photgraphing the faint marks but they hardly show up on the picture. Again, thanks for the offers, I'll get back to you all ASAP.
  8. SOLD Thanks for all the interest.
  9. Beautiful......
  10. Any offers at all?
  11. I think they're great, I saw Amy Winehouse's bass player using one recently.
  12. Very tasty trio there, love the Perception.
  13. ...and then of course there's Dee Dee...... [url="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6BBfybCPkjA"]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6BBfybCPkjA[/url]

  15. That's smart, I wish this'd been for sale a couple of weeks ago.
  16. Bump for a nice Precision or Stingray??
  17. [quote name='niceguyhomer' post='629464' date='Oct 18 2009, 02:03 PM']Can't wait to hear about the new band Russ [/quote] Early days mate, but I'm quite excited. In terms of trades, I'm thinking along the lines of: Precision, Jazz, Stingray. Obviously the Stingray is active, but passive basses would be favourite. Hit me with any offers of course. The Kinal is such a special instrument, if I could afford to I'd keep it, but needs must.
  18. Well......I'm going to defend the design....... I think they look good actually, not everyone's cup of tea, but they're different, and I know for a fact that they do appeal to younger players. I think if the QC was sorted they'd be getting a better press from folks. I'll reserve judgement until I've had one in my hands on that, but in terms of [i]design[/i] alone, I really like them. A lot of people hate Bongos, purely because of the design, but it's an outstanding bass. Of course I'm not comparing the Fleabass to a Musicman in terms of quality, but from a [i]design[/i] point of view, the Fleabass is pleasing on the eye, [i]to me[/i], it's just a shame that Flea's made some promises with regard to the QC, that to be honest, we all knew he couldn't possibly follow up. Shame, I really wanted it to be a good bass, maybe they'll sort out the teething problems.
  19. Well, I'm yet to see one in the flesh, but I'm disappointed with the comments, my daughter [i]really[/i] wants one for christmas.
  20. It's funny, I've been a bit uninspired by her latest stuff too. BIG fan of her sound and style, how long ago was "The Way" released? It's still my favourite tune, but a fair bit of her other stuff doesn't do it for me.
  21. I'm surprised this is still around..........
  22. Things have taken another turn in the last few days, so now I need something [i]old school[/i]. I've no cash, so a trade is my only option. I'm after a 70s Precision, a US Precision plus cash, or maybe a Stingray. Offers around a grand, there's no case, so I'd need to meet you somewhere if possible, I'd hate to post this wonderful bass. Possible new band on the horizon, and the Kinal doesn't quite fit the vibe, like I say, 4 string old school offers are welcomed, passive not active thanks.
  23. I do like Marleaux basses, and that's no exception. Very very nice.
  24. Nice old basses, but £800?? No way, although I've seen them going for not much less than that in mint and original condition. In [i]my[/i] opinion, they're worth around £400. Prices for older gear are just going mad, or rather the people paying those prices are.
  25. Nice, like that a lot.
