You're all probably right guys, I do prefer the neck of the precision (for now), guess I don't know what I want really! I'll stick with it for now, got a gig this weekend, so I'll give it a run out then. Thanks again everyone!

Here's my problem. I recently picked up a well gigged, bowed neck Mexican Precision (99 - 00). I bought it from a mate and felt so bad because I got it so cheap, I had to give him some more money! Anyway, he thought the neck was knackered, but after a few trusty turns of the truss, it has returned to a nice, straight low action bass. This is where my conundrum begins. I love the look and feel of it, but I can't quite settle on the tone! So I swapped the neck onto my Squier VM 70's Jazz and to be honest I prefer the tone, but it doesn't quite feel right, to me, to swap parts around - I know some guys like this.... So I guess my question is; should I persevere, stick with the jazz or trade it! (to be honest, I think I've answered my own question earlier in the post!) Just wondering what people's thought's were... AB

I'd recommend a GK MB500, as that's what use at the mo. It is plenty loud, sounds great and has some really good features (Boost, Contour Section). There could also be a case for sticking with your RH450. TC make some cracking gear, IMO, from the budget stuff upwards. Guess it's just what you like.

Bought an Aphex Bass Xciter from Adam. Great comms, speedy delivery and the pedal was in mint condition. Great fella to deal with, you can buy and sell with confidence. Cheers, Adam!

Karl is a great guy to deal with and knows his gear! Met him at Birch Services on the M62 - great comms, honest as the day is long and looks after his gear! Traded my GB Streamliner 600 for his GK MB500 and it was/mint. Deal with confidence!

Just completed a trade with John - went really smoothly, great comms and gear was totally as described! Would happily do business again. But/trade/sell with confidence.

Cheers Steve, what sort of info would be useful? I've had the neck off and there are still no clues!

[font="Calibri"][size="3"][color="#000000"]Hi Folks,[/color][/size][/font] [font="Calibri"][size="3"][color="#000000"]Just after a bit of help and wisdom really! I acquired this somewhat lovely P Bass in a trade some months ago. The guy I got it from was totally honest with me and said that the person he got it from claimed it was a Japanese P Bass body, but not the original neck. You can tell this as it has a Fender Big Block Logo on it and has been finished really well – you’ve got to get it under a light to tell that it is actually a decal! [/color][/size][/font] [font="Calibri"][size="3"][color="#000000"]It has a plate on the rear of the neck with some form of serial number, but again, this is not original. I just wondered if anybody had ever seen a similar body? It is a really nice bass and has a SD Basslines pup in it. Sounds great and plays really well.[/color][/size][/font] [font="Calibri"][size="3"][color="#000000"]If somebody could shed some light as to its origins, or where I could find out some more info, I’d be most grateful.

[i][i][i][i]Yeah, I'd always say, 'if it's not broken, don't fix it!' Having said that, one of Duncan Designed pups in my VM Jazz gave up the ghost recently so I bought 2 Entwistle's off ebay and would say they sound marginally better/clearer. So you SD will sound a lot better! But you've got a good bass (IMO) so why bother messing. Just move the other one on.... (I don't know why this is in italics)[/i][/i][/i][/i]
