  1. Thanks Silverfox, Yes the build quality is first class but unfortunately I am selling all my basses as I no longer play so someone will very pleased with their purchase of this beauty. 😉
  2. NOW SOLD I'm putting my Late 70's or possibly early 80's Tokai Hard Puncher up for sale only, I need the readies 😉. This is the Spaghetti type Logo which Im told is the earlier model. I bought this off a Guy in Scotland who paid £899 (Ebay receipt for it if you want it ) which was a bit on the high side, Im asking what I paid for it so no profit making. The frets are hardly marked and Im guessing that it got very little gigging, few marks here and there with the main chip as shown in the pic. All original except for the covers which are brand new and came with the Bass, truss works, electrics work as they should and the neck is in good straight order. The bass came with heavier strings than the ones I have on which are 105-45 so the nut is cut a side lower that normal, plays fine but could be improved depending on your preferences. Nut width is 42mm and weighs about 4Kg I have an old case which has no clasps but will do for the courier and keep the bass safe on its Journey.
  3. What a thing of beauty, such perfection 😍
  4. Hi Nord, What version is this one Cheers
  5. Easily worth a lot more, the hardware is solid brass and varnished, I have one of these but never heard of the vinegar trick as mine has the same tarnishing so might give it a try
  6. Hi There, Would be interested if you could include delivery. Cheers Brian
  7. This little beauty is now sold, thanks for looking guys
  8. The bass sits nicely with my broad strap, does drop a little bit but not that noticeable, the neck is lacquered but hard to say how heavy but its very nice to play and it does not bother me as I prefer the type of finish. All in all a fabulous bass
  9. Mid 1980's White Fender Power Jazz Bass Special. It's basically a Duff McKagen artist bass, but with an active circuit, which is the "power" part. Bought this off bass chatter xilddx a few years back This is a precision special with a lovely Jazz neck. Precision body, Jazz neck (22 frets)and P/J loaded. Pickup selector to switch between J pickup, J/P or just the P pickup. The P pickup is reverse mounted also to give a a warmer lower tone to the higher strings. 1 master volume. 1 Fender TBX control, treble/bass cut. Has a middle detent on the sweep for a flat tone, turn one way its cuts bass turn the other it cuts treble. 1 mini toggle switch. Switches from passive to Mid boost to Low boost. This switch controls the active tone circuit, the ATE circuit. 1 frequency sweep knob. This is bypassed when the mini toggle is off(passive) and all the standard Precision special passive tones are available. when the mini toggle is in mid or low boost mode this controls the frequency which is being boosted, I don't know however the parameters of the frequencys, or whether it's shelved or not. Battery compartment for the active circuit is located on the back, and is screwed in. This is all Original One of the F logo caps is missing from one knob and I cant as yet find a replacement, various chips here and there as photographed but in very good condition otherwise, good life in the frets. This is a versatile P-bass, it does standard passive P-bass tones to some thick lead jazz tones with the active circuit engaged. You can get a great slap tone by using the low boost and setting the tone knob to the middle detent with both pickups selected, best I've heard anyway. Even with just the P/U selector you can get a standard P, to a suitble less thumpy P to a standard jazz bass tone. The active circuit is hard to describe, the only way to describe the low boost when the sweep is set really low is like the "low" button on some amps, never really played with the mid boost as it suits a mid scooped EQ better. Ive usually only used it when I need to rage with my fingers to killing in the name, and as such would suit some of you heavy metallers out there or harder rock. It has a lot of natural treble which can be EQed out with the basses controls, but again I played it mainly with fingers and slapping. This is a great playing and sounding bass, the neck is nice and fast and those extra frets do make a bit of difference. I am selling quite a few basses over the next few weeks due to not having the time to play anymore so no trades please as I just want a straight deal THE PRICE INCLUDES SHIPPING COSTS TO ALL UK ADDRESSES
