    [quote-Jah Wibble] Man I've only just joined this site and it's F**king lethal for buying stuff. [/quote] P****d meself. [quote name='Jigster' timestamp='1344872926' post='1770445'] Hey don't worry I'm on it, I've messaged him and no reply [/quote] I PM'd him three seconds after he posted, no reply, and he was on for at least fifteen minutes afterwards.

    Since when was Richmond Central... London?

    [quote name='lowfer' timestamp='1344683292' post='1767920'] no idea i'm afraid, came with the bass and it is of good quality so can only assume its orginal. [/quote] Does it come with the screws...? [quote name='Onox' timestamp='1344803138' post='1769389'] The PUs are in the 60s Position? [/quote] They are in the 60's position.

    Hmmm. Nice. That 65's a rarity.

    It's 2002/4. Very pretty. Is that tort factory fitted?

    [quote name='LukeFRC' timestamp='1344513115' post='1765663'] Warning: I can't spell. [/quote] But you know when you're right.... [quote name='LukeFRC' timestamp='1344465870' post='1765177'] ...intreaged... [/quote]

    Me... in my normal trouserless state, burying a turd just before going onstage at the Winter Gardens.

    [quote name='silddx' timestamp='1344454516' post='1764921'] It is possibly a chemical in the lining. Brass players get this sometimes and their cases are often advertised as tarnish resistant. [/quote] This. It's the acetone from the dye. Vapours can around for years if the canvas isn't properly aired and dried before the bag is manufactured. [quote name='Lfalex v1.1' timestamp='1344503347' post='1765436'] At a slight tangent, does anyone know what the short webbing strap at the very top of Warwick gig bags is for? (it's approximately behind the headstock..) It seems over-engineered for a simple bag hanger... [/quote] It's a simple bag hanger. .

    Got any more detailed pix? Pix with the anodised scratchplate? Do you know what pre-amp it is? Model year...?

    For Jazz Bass geeks only.... [quote name='Johnston' timestamp='1305658385' post='1234780'] ....anyone speak Japanese? [/quote] No.... but I thought I'd resurrect the thread with this little revelation: the 45 CAR's sent to YAMANO didn't have the patent numbers on the repro decal... Good 'un, eh?

    [quote name='Evil Undead' timestamp='1343827266' post='1755854'] If it were a gift from my other half, I'd keep it. [/quote] This. [quote name='Evil Undead' timestamp='1343827580' post='1755860'] Did they say why not? [/quote] ....and this. [quote name='6feet7' timestamp='1343829136' post='1755896'] .... but I can't go straight out and buy one as it would show on the joint bank statement, [/quote] Now I'm confused. [quote name='6feet7' timestamp='1343829136' post='1755896'] ....but I can 'exchange' it.... [/quote] So, exchange it with the shop. [quote name='6feet7' timestamp='1343829136' post='1755896'] ....if you know what I mean. [/quote] Not really. D'oh! .

    [quote name='Ou7shined' timestamp='1342797102' post='1741155'] As for the bass?... nice idea poorly conceived... totally over priced. [/quote] Oh, I don't know, It's probably worth it, I mean... it was "professionally sprayed by me", and it's got a "wide artwork designed aluminium trussplate". What more could you possibly want in a professional bass made out of household [s]gash[/s] items ? .

    [quote name='walbassist' timestamp='1334245799' post='1613199'] I would love to see the Bass V reissued as well. [/quote] +1 Would bust the bank for one of those. [quote name='AndyTravis' timestamp='1334264224' post='1613620'] Yeah, is it stupid to want a red one and a white one...? [/quote] Quite right. Much more sensible to covet all three. .

    [quote name='Low End Bee' timestamp='1334244934' post='1613184'] It's a lot of money for the occasional stab at Besame Mucho at home. [/quote] Broaden your outlook, lad.... broaden your outlook.

    [quote name='merello' timestamp='1343752268' post='1754652'] [size=4]How fecking cool is this bass? [/size] [/quote] It [i]isn't[/i].

    [quote name='Stacker' timestamp='1343556553' post='1751956'] So, I've got a really good relic'd Jazz but I'm not happy withe the profile; it's not period correct. [/quote] Neither is a soft V. I'll get me coat.

    Notch. Top and bottom, me. Just press Go!

    Love 'em.... and always go back to them. RS66's to put leather on your fingers... SM's for that 'baby-powdered' feel. At their best after twenty hours. Had the same set on the bitsa for..., erm..., twenty [i]years[/i].

    [quote name='alanmian' timestamp='1343063152' post='1744623'] ....if i get any interest i'll try and sort out better pics. [/quote] Without attempting to be pedantic.... I'd have thought better pics might [i]raise[/i] the interest.

    [quote name='Who's Who' timestamp='1343240422' post='1747658'] Whoa there cowboy! I take it you don't wanna buy it then...? [/quote] Were it not for already having (one of?) the first in the country. Indeed, the very one that was used for - and photographed in - the Guitar Magazine review. Unmodded. Cowboy. And it's fabulous. Bridge, pickup, everything. And what a neck! What I prefer about yours tho', is that gorgeous 2-tone finish... and a nice grain. Beautiful. If only I could afford another! Good luck with the sale. .
