  1. @Whitengold Yes, it still has the logo. This is from before i put the paper on: @Byo, i assume japan, about 1991.
  2. [color=#333333]This is the classic thunderbird you've been looking for. Its the epiphone model of the gibson, (Hercules to Zeus if you will) and as such sounds downright badass. Comes with all black hardware, volume for each pickup and a master tone. Low action. Its got a gothic pickguard on it at the moment, but you can have the classic white one with it too if wanted. [/color] [color=#333333]Only minor is that i installed american gibson pickups into it which needed the holes routing out a little bit more, and then i put the originals back in as they sounded better, so there is a little gap around each pickup, but nothing noticeable on stage, and doesn't in any way affect the sound. Doesnt include the strap. [/color] [color=#333333]Try out in new brighton, or will reluctantly post if the price is right. You can hear lots of demos of this bass on youtube too.[/color]
  3. [color=#333333]Got this bass about a year ago in the hopes of modding it drastically from a member here. However, it plays too well for me to mod it. It has a massively gnarly P sound, with its reversed pickup position. Without a pickguard, it has a really clean look on the front, which has very slightly yellowed over time giving it an awesome look. Its got a shallow neck, but wide like a normal P bass. Its also got 21 fret, for that full 3 octave sound. Slab body with contours too. I also decided to stick some white paper to the headstock to give it a matching look, and wrote a nice little name for the bass in the style of a fender precision. This should be reversible as its only double sided tape, but looks much better with it on[/color] [color=#333333]Just downright a dam fine bass. Comes with the strap seen, which is attached via bottle tops, meaning the strap wont detach. try out in new brighton if you so please. Can arrange postage, but dont really want the hassle.[/color]
  4. [quote name='Manton Customs' timestamp='1423419011' post='2684560'] Yep, dyed red with (it looks like) black grain filler on Ash. Very easy to do. [/quote] Very easy?
  5. At the moment, my kettle lead for my amp is quite stiff, ie, it holds its coiled shape after letting it loose. Is there a type of kettle lead that acts like intsrument leads and just uncoil and lie straight?
  6. This was on ebay, and the finish is amazing. Would this be a simple red stain jobby? Body close up
  7. [quote name='tauzero' timestamp='1423183334' post='2682084'] They never have a convincing go at trying new stuff. It's always a bit half-hearted, try something a bit different (not too radical, stick an active preamp in a Jazz for example) then if it doesn't take off in six months, ditch it. [/quote] You mean like the Marcus Miller sig, American deluxe, Deluxe active okoume, deluxe jazz IV active? That sort of thing?
  8. Ordinary advert, if a little high on the asking price, but the name made me giggle http://www.gumtree.com/p/guitar-instrument/squirt-p-bass/1099435560
  9. they have some cheap basses though. Maybe good for projects.
  10. ha. "original strings"
  11. thought it was that site. Any sound clips?
  12. Whered you get the pickup from? Looks amazing with the mudbucker cover still in place
  13. Hey dude, im quite interested. What the devil do the dials do?
  14. Ive got 2 bass prjects that ive left sitting for years as i keep getting annoyed at failing when it comes time to finish them. Ideally, i would like to pay someone here to spray them orange and black for me. Ive tried it the DIY route many times and cant get a decent finish. Im out of patience and want them done. Anyone wanna spray them for me in exchange for british squids?
  15. Well, hes got it listed here for £1200 ono. Probably talk him down from there http://www.preloved.co.uk/adverts/show/112424405/fender-precision-bass-1974.html
  16. guess you dont want to post it
