    Yep, it's from the Big F and was bought some time ago second hand. Plays well and looks good, but it does suffer from a dead-spot on the fifth fret on the GString (fnaar!) No doubt there has been a thread on this subject before, but thought I'd do this one to keep it fresh, without references to 'them there new-fangled Precision Eelectric Basses'. This bass is a Jazz btw. I know about the 'Fat Finger' thingy that can be bolted onto the headstock, but understand that this only moves the dead-spot to another place on the neck? Looking to see if anyone has a solution to this problem (and yes, 'sell it', ' don't play a Fender', etc., are all rib-achingly funny). Anyway, over to you fellow burblers ... ...

    Hello.

    Agree with this, but if it was made in, say, 1991, it's now 33 years old. Don't know your age or when you started playing, but in my case, that was 1975, so a 90's bass to someone today, would have been like the younger me playing an electric bass from 1942 (and that would have been impossible and if it had existed, it would have been considered a 'relic', never mind 'old'). Time flies I'm afraid. 🤔

    Every time I tried to play by ear, my nose got caught under the strings. 🤥

    Yep, I had one of these. Very impressive bass with great looks and sound. Unfortunately, a failed MOT put paid to mine though. GLWTS

    I can't argue with that. 🫤

    Can't afford a '59 Fender, so have a CS '59 P-bass instead. 😉
  24. snorkie635
    Buy it and charge it to @Frank Blank. He'll never miss the dosh. 😁 I'll say nothing to Neeps if I can have a shot on your new, vintage, rare, pristine bass.

    There's an original just north of £800 for sale in Vintage, Rare and Retro guitars at the moment. I am not affiliated in any way btw. 😎
