[quote name='PlungerModerno' timestamp='1471109852' post='3110625'] I think if he were charging a living wage for the hours he puts into each build (from what I've seen, haven't had the pleasure of trying one in person) - and a modest fee for the experience he brings to the bench - those wouldn't be cheap instruments. They'd still be as awesome, but not cheap! [/quote] I've had the pleasure. My comment was very tongue in cheek. Jez's basses are superb. £1000 would not be a rediculous price for a bass from his hands. On that one occasion his materials may have been low cost, but his talent could demand a good price.

Hi there, The clear-out continues... This is a nice 20-fret maple neck with Rosewood fingerboard. The frets are in new condition. It's finished in lacquer on the neck, apart from the fingerboard. The decal on the headstock could easily be removed. The tuners are really nice; from a Squier, I believe. it will fit in a 62mm pocket on a body. Truss-rod works fine; otherwise it wouldn't be listed here. The nut is 42mm I'm in East Herts, but I can post it at your cost. Thanks for looking

Hi there, My clear-out continues. This one I think I'm going to miss. It sounds great, but I really must cut down. I have too many for a guy who doesn't gig. [b]Westone Thunder Jet bass[/b] - Solid Alder body, - 3 ply Maple bolt-on neck, - 34 inch scale 22 frets. - Rosewood fingerboard with graphite nut. - Single Hard Puncher I split pickup, volume and tone controls (Info from the 1984 catalogue) This bass has just been serviced and set up. Everything is in excellent working order and good condition for a 32 year old bass! It has a few dings and scrapes, but nothing major. The paint around the pots has also been re-touched and the knobs aren't original. But over all it's in good condition for the age. This bass was made in the Japanese Matsumoku factory in it's glory days in the 80s. The quality of their basses is celebrated the world over as they still are giving great quality at an amazing price. So grab a bargain as these are fantastic value for any bass player of all levels. A thick padded gig-bag can also be added to the sale, if you'd like one for a small additional cost. I'm located in East Herts, but travel about a bit, so PM me to find out if I can deliver. I'd also ship by UPS at your cost. [url="http://s1175.photobucket.com/user/Grangur/slideshow/BC-pics/Basses%20for%20sale/Westone%20Jet2"]More Pics[/url]

Hi there, I'm clearing out some "bargains" I've picked up. I know. It's a bad habit of mine. I see waifs and strays in the web-lists and can't resist them. Here's a great bass. It sounds amazing for a no-name. Well built and would do someone really well. Especially if they're just starting out; not that there's anything wrong with it for anyone to use.

It has just been serviced and set up. Everything is in excellent working order and in almost new condition. For a low-cost bass this is in great condition and really punches well above it's weight.

Amp to pair with Barefaced One 10 - SORTED - see post on 21st August
Grangur replied to Delberthot's topic in Amps and Cabs
I use my One10 at home, in the lounge, with a MB LM3. It's great. It's certainly loud enough. -

Is it the Bitas bass thread? It's coming up to me as "you don't have permission to view this thread". So I guess you're still posting the OP? Maybe after you've posted we might be able to see what's happening.

[quote name='beerdragon' timestamp='1471014683' post='3110021'] Hi, When you preview a post in selling your bass do the photos show up, I am selling a bass and using Photobucket, as far as i know i have transferred pics correctly but wondered if they show in preview, Thanks. [/quote] They do. When selecting the link to past into the image dialogue box, the one you need is the one Photobucket calls "Direct".

[quote name='Westenra' timestamp='1471008497' post='3109966'] How does that E have such low action and still be playable!? [/quote] If the action was better it wouldn't be in such good condition for a 50 year old bass. Not that I believe it is 50 years old. It just typical Fender misleading marketing

[quote name='Jwlkr1991' timestamp='1471000251' post='3109883'] Now im no expert but I pretty sure there isn't any lava flows on mount vesuvius... etna maybe but not versuvius. [/quote] Plus, it wouldn't burn in patches. It would simply burn... end of... in many ways

Why travel all the way to the top of a volcano and risk life and limb to burn patches in the front, then sand all evidence of the burning off? "Liar, liar pants on fire..."

Also, not on EvilBay.. http://basschat.co.uk/topic/289795-westone-spectrum-dx/page__fromsearch__1 This looks nice to me. Is this an '86 - going by the serial number? -
[quote name='Beneath It All' timestamp='1470930250' post='3109440'] ......n.b. the 'blotchy' marks on pic 1 are non-existent!! [/quote] I have to disagree... the blotchy marks exist ON the PICTURE! (They're reflections on a nice shiney Westone!) It's looks great and a real bargain for the money. GLWTS

Vantage Standard II bass - '82 Matsumoku delight now £150 *posted*

Hey Tom, Welcome to BC. This is a nice looking bass. I'm no expert on Fenders, is this USA built? I'm not looking to buy, but if I was I'd like a good look at the fingerboard. As it's not a factory made fretless, this would be of concern to me. I hope this helps you sell and Good Luck With the Sale. Cheers Rich
