  1. And replied 😆
  2. Awww I had a streamer Lx in exactly the same finish, with the slim wenge necks (p J pickups) one of the best basses ive ever owned! Just beautiful, if I had the cash id be very tempted 😆 Have a bump
  3. Exactly the same as mine!! Just gorgeous 😆
  4. I'd have thought connectin it to the ray preamp would provide the power as an EMG circuit would.
  5. [quote name='Rumple' timestamp='1469445275' post='3098290'] I've owned a JV Strat since the early eighties, it's an excellent instrument but in this day and age I'm sure you could get something to equal it in quality for less money. [/quote] I completely agree! The classic vibe squires are fantastic for the money and those limelight copies get a lot of love. Even modern day japanese basses are fantastic (bacchus etc). I feel there are some far more interesting fender inspired basses coming out of Japan these days.
  6. [quote name='Bassassin' timestamp='1469450173' post='3098349'] I need to get out more... [/quote] lol 😉
  7. Very informative! Thanks again J back to the OP! Yes get a Japanese fender copy,they are great. Sadowsky metros are Japanese made and are silly money.
  8. Pedant away J It's all good!!!! Here's a little thing that confirms your right! http://www.music-trade.co.jp/tokaihistory.html It does mention lawsuit era guitars meaning all of the Japanese copies at the time. Whether or not fender sued these companies is Moot as fender employed them all at different stages to make Japanese fenders. thanks for the info J
  9. At the moment!! The Green Spector NSCR4 on here and the new flea signature jazz in shell pink!! I'd still like a Nate Mendel P bass too 😆 I wish I had the money to get my old Ken smith back too 😟
  10. Don't discount the Tokais either! They IIRC they were made by matsumoko and created the infamous "lawsuit" fenders. I recently picked up an 83 tokai fretless jazz in an unusual Teal colour and the quality is on par with my 82 JV jazz. These are going for a lot less as they currently don't have the trend factor,but the prices are rising. At over 1k I wouldn't consider a JV now as I feel there are plenty of decent basses in thay price point which would be better value (although not collectable im sure). I was lucky I paid £120 for my JV back in 93 and i recall one or two jvs floating around the north east for not much money. I foolishly didn't buy a jv precision in leeds for £150 many moons ago. Oh to have hindsight eh! I passed on an old Wal for £800 too!!! Kicking myself I bought a warwick instead 😂
  11. I really hope you can sort it and don't have to sell!
  12. Wow that was quick!!
  13. I wish I had the cash to buy this! Dave Wilsons finishing work is second to none! I once owned an old warwick he'd refinished it was stunning. This is a daft price for this bass! Have a bump 😆
  14. My wife would never buy me bass gear in a million years 😆
  15. Wow!!! Not for the faint hearted!!!! 😉 beautiful bass for someone up to it!
  16. I used SWR stuff for years and it was THE rig to use for while. I absolutely loved it all,even the early workingman stuff was great. It amazes me how cheap you can pick this stuff up for now,when I think about how much money I spent 😅 IIRC when fender first bought the brand,they released a new line of bass rigs,which was very similar to the SWR! They then ran the brand into the ground 😕

    cat vs cab

    A blunt gillette razor lightly scraped works well! My three mini tigers love to kill cabs,which is why I don't have carpeted cabs,and they have covers and i cover the covers 😅
  18. Wow fantastic!
  19. Got a few bits im not using Evidence Audio Lyric HG 15ft cable - TRADED! very high end cable, I bought this quite a long time ago,when I had a lot more disposable income (before kids). At the same time I bought some used Zaolla cables on here, as a result the Evidence Audio was used twice as i much prefer the Zaolla. It has been sat in a case for years and not used,I have taken it out with me as a spare and never needed it. Fantastic warm/clear audiophile sound, but the cable is quite thick and not very flexible, I really don't need a 15ft cable either. bass direct have These at this length for £99 so ill do this for £40 delivered. Pedal interconnects x4 I've 4 pedal connectors, one is an unused planet waves one (rrp 4.99) and three generic ones. One of these can be adjusted between pedals of different brands All are unused, £11 delivered for the lot or £3.00 each. many thanks
  20. Great show! And some very tasty bass lines!! I was asked to do sister act before the Christmas,however I couldn't due to moving. There is an oc2 up at the mo for £80,however to get it to track fast lines well,its best to play right up the neck,great sound though 😆
