dafonky replied to dafonky's topic in Basses For Sale
Most G3 were indeed natural ones with alder bodies ,some were black/ alder Only a few were sunburst with maple bodies. This one is rather exceptional because most G3 with maple bodies were beyond 5 kg ! -

These strings feel and play very well 🙂 I must say that it‘s not always easy for me to identify La Bellas , did they change the silk at some time ? I supposed the silk color was the same on all their bass strings ….? i have 4 different LaBella flatwound sets here for the moment : 1) FL set : light red / orange silk on upper end , no silk on the ball end side ( exactly like yours) 2) FL-TB set ( string throug ) red/orange silk on BOTH ends 3) FS set : black silk on the upper end only 4) FS 5 string set : black silk on BOTH ends 🙈 do i have a mix of old and new sets here ? i would buy yours immediately , but i am in Europe, shipping and taxes are expensive i suppose ? best regards marc -
Hi everybody here my experience with the early 90‘ies „pre serial „ NYC Empire models: the carved body/ neck heel came after 1999 , on the second generation of NYC Empire basses . The first series basses from 1994-1999 had standard Fender like bolt on necks and body shape and heel. They were built in small batches when Fodera was , as you mentioned, a small shop with a handfull of people working there. None of the bodies were exactly the same, they are hand carved. ( i had a pickguard made especially for one NYC bass which did not fit exactly on my other NYC basses ). I have played several of these old NYC Jazz basses , most of them ( 90% of the ones i ever saw later ) had 60‘ies Jazz bass pickup spacing ,( alder and ash bodies, maple necks or thick rosewood fretboards) and at that time , a lot of them were 4 stringers …..the reissue models/ second version ( starting 2001 I think ) were mainly 5 string basses , with the carved neck heel. and not the classic Fender neck/ body bolt on system . All of them have an active circuit , with active/passive switch or push/pull knob. Pickups are Bartolini, EMG , Lindy Fralin , Lane Poor or Seymour Duncan on early 90‘ies models, different hardware ( black, chrome or gold finish) sometimes even bridges found on Emperor or other more expensive models. Most of the 90‘ies models have a quilted top . ( a lot of them were even fretless models ! ) All of the 4 string basses come with a D-tuner . 5 stringers mostly had angled headstock and three piece neck, 4 string basses not. Some early basses had the back of the body painted in black ( while the top was quilted ) , these are NO fakes , but looked a bit cheap though ! The blue one above even had the back of the neck in black……. These old models are really nice basses , a bit heavy weight, but very reliable instruments. Best regards

An amp with a meaty, juicy tone , TH style, but without a fan or a very, very quiet one, would be my choice ....... any suggestions ? Even if it is not the smallest one Trickfish and Steamhammer seem to be less meaty/ juicy ?

Hevos amps DO NOT have a fan

Hi , pickups are dated 1970, neck 1971, pots 1966 neck plate is 280 xxx and yes, it is the original late 60'ies early 70'ies bridge the bass belonged to a luthier before who was repairing a lot of vintage Fender guitars and basses. He was cleaning it and refinished the body in natural, because he liked the wood grain. He said that the body is older than the rest of the bass, because of the lightweight ash body. I have to check and post the exact weight here

Here some more body pics, without the pickguard

-
Yes, of course! the names escaped me for moment, that was the only one i remembered 🙂 .....perhaps just because i tried it and it worked very , very good in some of my P basses

Hi everybody Selling some vintage Fender parts for a nice P-bass project : true 1960' ies naked feather light ash body , wonderfull wood grain the body was originally blonde, cleaned after a spray job and refinished in natural comes with the original bridge .Weight is 2 kg its fretted 1971 Fender Precision neck with original tuners, beautifull rosewood fretboard the truss rod has been professionally repaired and fixed i can split and sell body and neck separately ! the action of the bass is max 2,5 -3 mm on the 12th fret , which is not too bad for a vintage Fender simply fit it with a good pickup ( Lundgren, Seymour, Lindy Fralins which work all very well on this ash body) and a nice Emerson kit ( or other ) and you have immediately a very good vintage Fender Precision player for a decent price ! I can throw in , for some additional money of course, its original pickups which are dated 1970 , but these other brands do a very good job too , really ! for additional infos and pics, please send me a PM thanks for looking
