[quote name='Nate' timestamp='1336216697' post='1642597'] Add another string..? I have an American Jazz 4 with a maple neck. Do I need another Jazz 4? Hmmm I SHOULD only be looking at 5s but I'll easily led! Oh fudge.. [/quote] Hmmmm, well I can't quite add another string but are you not slightly more than tempted by the look?! I mean I added a tortoiseshell pickguard and block inlays, who doesn't need them???

[color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif]Hi all,[/font][/color] [color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif]Here is my 2008-2008 Mexican 70s Jazz Bass. It's served me well for 6 months or so but has been pushed back in the pecking order since I realised that I'm really just P-bass guy at heart. [/font][/color][color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif]I'm selling for no other reason than that.[/font][/color] [font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif][color=#282828]If I do say so myself, it makes a lovely sound and this is one of the better quality mexican basses that I've played. I've made it even better (ascetically) with the addition of a tortoiseshell pick guard, if you'd like the original too, I've still got that hanging around. Other than that it's all original stuff.[/color][/font] [color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif]For more pictures than I've uploaded here, have a look here:[/font][/color] [url="http://flic.kr/s/aHsjzHLVHV"]http://flic.kr/s/aHsjzHLVHV[/url] [color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif]I'm sure most of you know a bit about this bass, but if not have a look here for some blurb:[/font][/color] [b][url="http://tinyurl.com/6vhlsvw"]http://tinyurl.com/6vhlsvw[/url][/b] [color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif]here for the specs:[/font][/color][list] [*][i]Model Name: ‘70s Jazz Bass[/i] [*][i]Model Number: 013-2000-(Colour#) [/i] [*][i]Series: Classic Series [/i] [*][i]Colours: (300) 3-Colour Sunburst, (306) Black, (Polyurethane Finish) [/i] [*][i]Body: Alder [/i] [*][i]Neck: Maple, ‘70s “C” Shape, (Gloss Polyurethane Finish) [/i] [*][i]Fingerboard: Rosewood, 7.25” Radius (184mm) [/i] [*][i]No. of Frets: 20 Vintage Style Frets [/i] [*][i]Pickups: 2 Vintage Style Jazz Bass Single-Coil Pickups with AlNiCo Magnets [/i] [*][i]Controls: Volume 1.

Bump for website addition! -
Yes, yes, it's a massive long shot I know, so do please save the sarcastic comments! But now with that said, seriously anyone up for a swap?... My compact was bought from another BC'er not long ago. He told me it was bought around May/June 2011 so it's not old at all. I've discussed converting it to a silver grille with Alex Claber but it seems that it's more a risk than I thought it might be. So, if anyone out there is aesthetically dissatisfied with their compact I'd love to hear from them! Tom

[quote name='uncle psychosis' timestamp='1316519577' post='1379030'] If you *really* want rid of it I'd go down and spend the whole lot on something you could sell easily and that keep their value pretty well---probably Boss guitar pedals or something. [/quote] Hmmm yep that's what I thought. I wasn't too keen on paying eBay fees on whatever it was that I bought though, I don't mind making a loss on it but how much of a loss is the question...

Hi all, I'm not too sure where this topic belongs so I went for the most general one. I'm after some help! You might even call it a favour: bass-ically I have a £365 credit note for Wembley Guitar Centre that I could really do with spending on more pressing things. If anyone is off to buy something anytime soon from that shop I could really do with offloading my credit note to them. I could even meet you there with it... I really am that desperate!! Of course I would be eternally grateful and if it sways anyone I could offer a little discount, say give me £350 and you get my £365 credit note. Failing all that, any other ideas on how to offload it would be very welcome! Yours Hopefully, Tom
