    sorry if this has been asked before but whats the deal with the little routed round hole on my Fender Jazz under the pick guard? its about the size of a 10p and about a centimetre deep I bought it in 2000. Is it something to do with an active version of the bass? (mine is just a standard passive red wine Jazz) I'll take a photo of it if its an anomaly but methinks its probably quite common on this model? thanks Stu

    [quote]Remember over here a new MIM costs 750 and a MIA costs 1450 just about[/quote] sheesh quite expensive! I bought my mex Jazz bass in 2000 in Cardiff for £340 so there's inflation for ya! Im not sure what the prices are like now but a few years ago when I lived in west wales I managed to get a foot passenger ferry and rail return from carmarthen to Rosslare (including a bus to Wexford) for 13 pounds! if it was still that kind of price I'd say come over and get one. (I doubt thats much of an easy option though!)

    It seems a bit pricey to me considering its missing tuners and electrics. I'd say you're looking at roughly an extra 30-40 pounds maybe a bit less for those bits plus then consider you may want to change the pups. body doesnt look in particularly good nick either... I'd reccomend doing a search around the for sale section for past mexican Fenders that have been sold recently for a good idea. perhaps put a post in the wanted area? I vaguely remember seeing a working one that was a little tatty cosmetically go for around the 200 pound mark. I have the same colour and looking at it, roughly same age mex jazz. I changed the electronics and love it. I'd say buy one thats complete and usable now and then start tinkering with it.

    blooming ell!! 560 dollars (or 340 quid?) crazy money... I'd like to email whoever wins this to see if they will be doing anything with it and perhaps maybe do a restoration diary!!!

    Anyone else seen this? (apologies if its been posted before) [url="http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/1958-Gibson-EB-2-Bass-Guitar-Must-See-Extremely-Rare_W0QQitemZ220440378826QQcmdZViewItemQQptZGuitar?hash=item3353453dca&_trksid=p3286.c0.m14&_trkparms=65%3A12%7C66%3A2%7C39%3A1%7C72%3A1688%7C240%3A1318%7C301%3A0%7C293%3A1%7C294%3A50"]http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/1958-Gibson-EB-2-Bas...%3A1%7C294%3A50[/url] its in pretty rough condition- I'd love one but I dont think I'd like to touch this one though (I wish epiphone would reissue their rivolis again!)

    he looks a damn sight better than the pics I remember seeing of him a while back on a bbc story (edit here's the link [url="http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/health/6131854.stm)"]http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/health/6131854.stm)[/url] awesome chops, in more than 1 way!

    Christmas wrapping- the waitresses Hate the song- the bass line is cheesy but I love it!

    I nearly bought one in 2000 brand new but chose a Mex jazz bass instead. I remember them being labelled Fender Corona Jazz Bass... The bloke in the shop at the time said it was mexican bits assembled in the US or did he say american bits assembled in mexico?
  13. Stu-khag
    Its got to be worth more than £350 although I'd agree it does depend on how quick you want to sell it. Ive seen them online from around £520 upwards. Ive seen one in a local shop a few pounds shy of 600 quid. if its mint and you have an invoice with the setup work thats been done , surely its worth a punt offering it for near that price and see what happens. People can only haggle it down then.

    I'd love an EB2 or epiphone/ tokai/ jap equivalent. There's something so cool about them... I couldn't justify buying an old one but I wish epiphone would bring out some budget versions- any suggestions much appreciated!

    hey guys, Ive decided I need to get rid of this. tried selling last year but didnt try hard enough. SWR 350 head (pre Fender, the model after the red one). NEW PICS AT BOTTOM (CAPS LOCK MADNESS! ARGGH!) Ive owned it 3 years. it needed a good service but now in good condition (thanks to Nobles, Cardiff). Ive kept it in a rackmounted flight case. a bit of the front paint has come off the face but not major (pictures to be taken to show this- SEE AT BOTTOM- I SHALL TAKE BETTER PICTURES IF REQUESTED!) In total, its played around 10 gigs since its been serviced as Ive not been doing anything major thats needed me to take it places. Hows about £220? (with flight case, can be sold without) REDUCED TO £200 WITH FLIGHT CASE Im happy to look into the idea of posting this. Due to imminent move Im not able to consider trades for this! CAB IS SOLD SWR Triad 1 Cab. one of the early ones thats in good working order. a little bit rough around the edges due to being through a few gigs/attacked by my old cat (its got that fuzzy lining on it). I have one picture of the rig so far which I will upload but will take more pics. CAB IS NOW SOLD!!!! head is sold. all sold for 350 Will sell as a complete rig for £400 but happy to split.

    I have a Laney combo that's sitting doing nothing. Not sure on the model number but will check it out later(it may be an RB7) The controls look similar to the head pictured.

    I have no experience with instruments but I have experience with camera equipment. We took roughly 300 grands worth of equipment and put it all through as luggage. didnt lock any of it but used cable ties. It all went swimmingly however, one of the crew managed to pick up an 80 grand lens from some other company...(apparrently it was on its way to a Madonna video shoot) I'll point out that all the kit was in peli cases with custom cut foam. they are virtually indestructible. If I ever need to take a guitar abroad, Im getting a peli case!

    Well, probably not as much as I paid it! I'll have to research the going rate for one and get back to you but Im open to offers
  19. Stu-khag
    Well here's my rig. Swr 350 (mk2?) and I think its a Triad 1. Would ya believe Ive not gigged with it in over two years (and it got serviced just before its last outing doh!) It was such a blast playing it live and I love the triad 3 way speaker setup Its currently used as a key stand in my old flat. Such a shame Im not gigging for the forseeable.(Coming to a for sale site near you!)

    I'll keep my eyes peeled for it here in Cardiff.

    I bought a job lot of gear a few years ago and it included a 5 string vintage musicman copy... Really nice looker and sounded good to me but Ive never got on with 5 stringers so sold it. the guy I sold it to still has it and its his main axe
  22. Stu-khag
    the only advantage I can see for these is that it wont matter if you knock them about a bit- I find the first few dings on a new guitar quite painful, its only after a year or two that it doesnt bother me.
