[quote name='Marc S' timestamp='1444379910' post='2882665'] If you're not gigging the basses, but you play them regularly as long as you're enjoying playing them - keep them Perhaps use one as a backup for gigs? Or try gigging one - maybe they need some different amp settings / EQ'ing? [/quote] I have it up for sale at the moment but if it doesn't sell I have a plan, I'm going to replace the electronics and maybe to give a darker sound. I do intend to play it around and about but not in my band so am looking forward to getting it refined to my personal tastes.

I heard this bass in action last night at an acoustic set/open mic. I have to say that it sounded great.

[quote name='JapanAxe' timestamp='1443966369' post='2879031'] Hen's teeth, rocking-horse poo, etc... [/quote] Yes I know, I had one before and regretted selling so bought this one, which is equally nice and a rare colour too...I get the feeling I may regret selling this someone buys it but needs must. -
[color=#141823][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif]This is a beautiful example of a hard to find bass. It's used but in great condition with only a couple of marks on the headstock, and a strange small darkened stain under the lacquer on the back which according to fender was more than likely original and a stain in the wood. It has been professionally set up and plays extremely well. Neck is true.[/font][/color] [color=#141823][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif]Electrics are in A1 condition with no noisy pots etc. It comes with the original case, documentation and truss rod adjustment tool. Just checked the authenticity with Fender and all fine. Here are the details they gave me from the guitar's serial number:[/font][/color] Model Name: American Standard Precision Bass® Fretless Model Number: 019-2208-(Color #) Series: American Standard Series Body: Alder Neck: Graphite Reinforced Maple Fingerboard: Rosewood (9.5” Radius/241 mm) Frets: None, Fretline Position Markers Scale Length: 34” (864 mm) Nut: 1.625” (41.3 mm) Hardware: Chrome Machine Heads: American Standard Bridge: American Standard (Strings-Thru-Body) Pickguard: 3-Ply White Pickups: Vintage '62 P Bass (Mid) Pickup Switching: N/A Controls: Volume, Tone Colour: (709) Candy Apple Red (Disc. 7/98), (Polyurethane Finish) Strings: Stainless Flatwound 9050M, # 073-9050-006 (.055, .070, .090, .105) Case: Standard Molded Case Other Features: Source: CORONA (U.S.) Accessories: Molded Case INTRODUCED: 1995 DISCONTINUED: 1/1999 [color=#141823][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif]Stunning!

Yes it's back! I'm putting most of my stuff up for sale in an effort to get some funds together. This is a very "easy to live with" bass. It is nice and light and plays and sounds great. It does need a bit of love (which it will get if it doesn't sell) and there are numerous small surface marks etc as you would expect on a well used bass. if you fancy it don't let that put you off as it's class shines though IMHO and it has a touch of magic about it. It also looks great! Here's a link to a previous thread (I hope that is OK TheGreek): [url="http://basschat.co.uk/topic/244960-iceni-zoot-prototype-traded/page__hl__zoot"]http://basschat.co.u.../page__hl__zoot[/url] [color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif]EMG's There's a switch fitted but does nothing - controls are vol/vol/tone[/font][/color] [attachment=201973:zoot ff.jpg] [attachment=201974:Zoot b.jpg] [attachment=201975:zoot bod1.jpg] [attachment=201976:zoot h.jpg] [attachment=201977:zoot hb.jpg]

Well i need to sell something so am putting up almost all my basses for sale. If something sells I'll take the rest down. Here is a very nice Bass collection. The model is a bit of a mystery-maybe a 420 and it has a more natural finish than the usual high gloss. It's active, lightweight and plays beautifully.

[quote name='TheGreek' timestamp='1443525444' post='2875479'] Traded basses with Ed...nightmare dealing with UPS who kept telling me that my address didn't exist - Ed was a gent though and was sympathetic to my ranting. Bass (eventually) arrived well packaged and plays like a dream now that I've fitted a new set of of Status Tapewounds (very highly recommended BTW). No hesitation dealing with Ed again (as long he uses a courier other than UPS)... [/quote] I'm glad that your happy. me too Best wishes

Watching with interest....is there a date yet?

Good advice above that about covers it. I'd just add that LTD ESP 205's and Cort Crubows also seem live good value for money.

[quote name='Mornats' timestamp='1443119920' post='2872460'] A couple of minor gripes now that I've had it a week. On the pic below you'll notice that the strings don't pass directly over all of the pole pieces. If you check out the E and G strings and note how far they are from the sides of the neck you'll see they're not quite centre either. It doesn't affect the playability or the sound or the volume of each individual string so it's only my OCD it bugs. I don't think I should be bothered by it really. [/quote] Well it looks great and if the performance isn't effected why worry. Would you like a replacement...probably not The crackle on the other hand..yep they should get that sorted ASAP

Nice, have you got matching outfits to go with each. A 5 stringer...that's what I need

[quote name='Painy' timestamp='1442860780' post='2870101'] My old trans red fiver is still the one that got away for me. Traded it in against a TRB about 15years ago which sounded great but never really felt as comfortable as the Bass Collection had. [/quote] Don't say that I'm struggling to keep mine at the moment. I need to sell some stuff and my higher end stuff hasn't moved yet. The fretted BC at the top is being traded and I'm just contemplating if I should move on the fretless Note: I love them all thats the trouble

Very nice!
