    Sold pending payment! Edit : Now for sale as well would prefer collection or to meet somewhere but can look at couriers if needed For trade is my recently acquired USA MM Sub in white. Lovely bass just not for me, a few silly things got in the way of being able to enjoy it like the pickup not lowering enough! It comes with a battered hard case that I have no use for as well. The bass has a really low serial number in the 100s! It also at some point had had the finish sanded off the neck and feels and plays smoothly. The scratchplate wasn't on it when I got it and one of the screws is missing but not a big issue. The paint has changed where the scratchplate used to be which I've tried to get in a pic! Also has strap locks! The bass is located in Bucks. Looking for: Squire Classic vibe 50s pbass Fender/Squire 5 string Fender Aerodyne If I don't find a bass to swap I will put this up for sale!

    Traded For trade is a lovely Fender Bitsa Precision. I have recently got this in a trade but I don't really gel with it so looking for a trade. The bass is made up of: Fender Highway one neck Squire body Seymour Duncan 1/4 pickups The bass has been used and has a few scuffs and dings which you can see in the picture. Also one of the screws in the bridge has sheared off at some point but this doesn't effect the bridge at all or the playability. The bass plays and sounds great and looks nice too. Looking for: Highway one P or J Musicman Sub 4/5 (both sub ranges) Classic vibe 50s p bass Sterling Ray 34/35 Open to offers. Bass is located in Aylesbury and I don't have any packing material at the moment but I'm happy to drive and meet up with whoever is interested. Any questions please ask!

    Got this as a trade for my Fender Dirnt Fender Frankenstein Fender Highway One Neck Squire Body Seymour Duncan 1/4's [IMG]http://i1172.photobucket.com/albums/r569/S9_S12_Bass/32267269-E0E0-40EF-A328-85B5B04FA3B1-8039-000008AF45CFA1D3_zps4b387a3a.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://i1172.photobucket.com/albums/r569/S9_S12_Bass/CEDA896D-FB1D-4F6E-8B65-264716F1D3EF-8039-000008AF3F225B97_zpsd80c17f4.jpg[/IMG] Had a small issue with it cutting out, but just bent the hook in the input a bit and tightened a nut and it was sorted! Plays really nice and looks and sounds good too!
  13. MarkG3
    Thanks! I was about to swap the inputs with another bass and noticed a nut was loose under the input, so tightened that and bent the hook bit a bit more and it now seems to of sorted it's self out! So no need for any new inputs it seems

    Hello, Just got a Fender P in a trade and it plays well apart from when I plugged it in the bass cuts in and out with a load of static noise when you wiggle the lead. I changed the leads and it still did it and tried the leads with another bass and it was fine. I have taken the scratch plate off and the soldering looks ok, but I may of worked out whats wrong I just don't know how to fix it. Basically I noticed that when it is plugged in the lead comes back out by about 1mm and when pressed back in it works fine? I tried bending the metal connector in the input so it has more resistance when plugging in but that didn't seem to do anything? I have contacted the other person in the trade to see if they know how to fix it but thought I would start a thread as well to see if I can get it repaired without having to take it to a tech. Thanks

    [quote name='deanovw' timestamp='1369091891' post='2084860'] I had similar on a BF midget. It was the grill. I tightened the offending screw and cured it. [/quote] This is what I thought, a loose screw somewhere maybe on the handles if its not the grill

    Really interested to see and hear how this turns out!

    Traded it for a nice bitsa fender p bass! Will most likely post pics up in a new thread when I get it. Thanks again for the advice

    Have put it up for trade so there is a thread now in the for sale section. Thanks for all the input, I have advertised it with the telebass neck but have said I will put the original back on if preferred. Thanks

    For trade - value £400 [IMG]http://i1172.photobucket.com/albums/r569/S9_S12_Bass/C568EFF8-3DEE-489B-86CC-89D0DD0B3B0D-3805-000004908AF25752_zpsbb2a50d0.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://i1172.photobucket.com/albums/r569/S9_S12_Bass/0696A124-BD39-490D-80EC-09B8EBDF5AEF-3805-00000490A04B88AA_zps55c9e50c.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://i1172.photobucket.com/albums/r569/S9_S12_Bass/664DBFF0-5CA9-437F-9F0C-68BF1B202CF6-3805-00000490989F27A7_zpscf868beb.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://i1172.photobucket.com/albums/r569/S9_S12_Bass/74C2D838-813C-47D9-8685-E8D4C656B340-12991-00000C228484A4E9_zpscfe95773.jpg[/IMG] This has been refinished in Nitro and has picked up some scratches and marks which you can see in the pictures, none of them are deep dents, and currently has a 78 telebass neck on it however if you would prefer the original neck I can put that back on! It also has Schaller strap locks, the strap is a slightly different one to the one in the picture as that's my main strap. The bass has 59 custom shop pups from standard. I took the foam out from under the pups so I could get them a little lower as my pick hit them when playing. Also has a Badass 2 bridge, it only has one groove per saddle Looking for: Highway One Precision Highway One Jazz Sterling Sub ray 5 Sterling sub ray 4 Sterling Ray 34 Will look at offers as well! Bass is in Aylesbury Bucks, but until Thursday/Friday this week I am down by Chichester with the bass. Any questions then please ask, I'm not enjoying the bass any more and want to move it on. I've had it for around 8-9 years. Thanks

    I don't usually like red basses but that I liked and solid playing and good singing in the videos!

    Thanks again for the replies, I have offered it up for a few trades, but if nothing comes from it then its something that Lozz said that I could keep it as a backup, because as it stands that's what it is, although arguably I could trade it for something that I enjoy a bit more. Thanks Gary, he has had a good look over it and was actually part of helping sort the neck out in the first place. I hadn't thought about mixing parts with my highway, but when I've thought about it I don't think there is anything I dislike or would change about the highway. I've really spent time on trying to get this bass similar to my highway hence the nitro finish which I went over with a washing up sponge to give it a duller finish to make if like the highway. I think it would be easier to just keep it but like its already been said I think it'll eat away at me that something isn't right with it.
