    Oh... that DJ is lovely! No cash available I'm afraid. But have a good ol' bump on me.

    [quote name='Machines' post='54681' date='Sep 3 2007, 12:24 PM']Yeah that really bugs me with my Jazz - at least he redeemed himself with the Stingray . Personally single cuts don't feel comfortable to me. I have played 2 Shukers (the doodle included), and though very nice, aren't for me.[/quote] I really wanna try one out. I mean, do you mean uncomfortable in wearing it, or in playing it. At the moment I'm dreaming to take out custom job, a Fender-eque Jazz but with a singlecut body. Maybe Red with a rosewood board, pearl inlays and matching headstock. Yummy!

    That looks stunning!

    emm... I'll tell you what. For £240 I'll come over to you for a quick deal.

    [quote name='warwickhunt' post='53463' date='Aug 31 2007, 04:20 PM']£570 bargain if ever![/quote] I am speechless. Right when I was starting to gas over Streamers a sudden glut occurs on these fair forums, and then this happens.

    EDIT: Not really for sale at the moment as I'm not that desperate to let go. But if there's something for trade or part-ex and you're interested in this, talk to me.

    [quote name='tayste_2000' post='51672' date='Aug 28 2007, 11:58 AM']When you say part ex do you mean bass + cash to you or Bass + cash from you?[/quote] Both.

    [quote name='dood' post='49441' date='Aug 23 2007, 11:59 AM']Yes, I agree.. I think you can learn from watching any musician no matter what level they are at.[/quote] Definately. I guess I would prefer to see a bad originals band to a poor covers.

    Bump... cash offers are cool btw. But would still prefer a trad/part-exchange.

    [quote name='Geddys nose' post='50738' date='Aug 25 2007, 11:44 PM']Frusciante looked a little p*ssed off and avoided eye contact with the others,might be me but they normally look like they are having great fun [/quote] Well after your equipment kept on failing before the first song even properly begun, I'd understand. I hold the view, and after seeing him at Reading that he is one of the more tasteful bassists out there. His playing during the jamming sections and encore were spectacular. Him and Chad Smith were joined at the hip.

    Moral of the story... don't sell your basses. I regret my Warwick Corvette. Though after I got my Thumb, it wouldn't be needed so I sold it. Truth is, they are very different basses and I do miss the Corvette's look and what it offered tonally. My sister was upset I sold her too.

    Gutted I couldn't make this in the end. I'm still having the itch to get my greasy paws over OBBM's Lakland DD and see what is all the fuss about these Dark Star pickups. It was great of him to organise the thing in the first place. Will definately drag my behind to the next bash, be it national or regional.

    [quote name='Sibob' post='48091' date='Aug 21 2007, 12:09 AM']Oh a p-bass from my birth year......don't tempt me Si[/quote] Go on! You know you play her you'll wanna grow old with her... hehe. Thanks for the PMs guys. All responded. Also, thanks Jim and wateroftyne for the input.

    Liking the flyer idea. I do tell every bassist I come across about this haven away from drummers, guitarists and that sort of riff-raff. But flyers and stickers would help further the cause no bounds.

    This is a Fender Precision bass guitar with a black finish, black pickguard and a maple neck. An interesting bass. Has an S9 serial number but has an 1983 date stamped on the neck heel. Still retains that classic 70's look though, and looks absolutely stunning! It is not as heavy as other specimens I've played. I believe the pickups are vintage replacements because of the cloth wiring, but they sound awesome! I believe everything else is original. The bass is in general fantastic condition considering the age, especially the neck. There's a tiny hint of buckle rash but can only be seen in certain angles of the light. Not especially desperate to sell, and would much prefer a trade/part-exchange. Only thinking to get rid because my Fender Jazz's S-1 switching has the Precision tone pretty much covered, so this is just laying about doing nothing. Would be interested in (not exclusively) Laklands, Warwicks or anything you may have in mind Just try me! May be in interested in neo cabs too.

    Mate... what year is this out of curiosity. The features make the year quite early.

    [quote name='warwickhunt' post='46786' date='Aug 17 2007, 11:16 AM']It wasn't so long back that I noted there were a glut of MM and Sterlings.[/quote] I also remember the glut of 70's Fender Precisions!

    +1 for Stringsdirect. Consistently fast delivery and a good range.

    Carol is the name of Kylie and Danni Minogue's mother according to Wikipedia. I pitched the idea to Chris and he liked it!
  23. s_u_y_*
    Not surprised this sold so quick at all! If I had a bass or two fewer, I would have jumped all over this.

    [quote name='Beedster' post='46252' date='Aug 16 2007, 10:15 AM']Ha ha, nice one, Carol it is, cheers Froilan. Can't wait to play her through the Trace head I bought from you (which I might add was every bit as good as you said it would be). Played it against my other Precisions last night. The power output was noticebly lower, which at first I was a little concerned about, but after a while I realised I can get some far more earthy/gravelly tones out of it than out of the more recent basses. Fair to say that Carol sounds pretty much how she looks. I wonder if Kylie's mum has a 60 a day habit. Wonder if she smokes as well Chris[/quote] Hey... glad to took up the suggestion. But slightly gutted I won't be seeing you tomorrow with her and my ol' Trace in action. As I said before, that amp was made for Precisions! Maybe I'll see you with them at the next bash.

    [quote name='Alpha-Dave' post='46190' date='Aug 16 2007, 07:53 AM']However, I suspect it's actually due to the new, more stable Basschat that we've attracted more people to sell their gear![/quote] Amen! I always make a point of advertising this forum to bassists I meet. More users mean a healthier marketplace to trade in. Compared to eBay, sellers get a better deal and buyers get a safer and more friendlier transaction. Would be interesting to test out economic theory on trading down these parts.
