  1. No buzzing. It's just like a complete lack of sustain. That's the only note on the whole neck to suffer in this way. Will check with a straight edge though, ta.
  2. 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 ... ...
  3. 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. πŸ€”
  4. You are Jaco, and I claim the £5 prize. 😁
  5. I do like a TRB 5 P2 Nilo old bean. Good choice. πŸ˜ŽπŸ‘
  6. Every time I tried to play by ear, my nose got caught under the strings. πŸ€₯

  8. Agree with Walshy in all respects.
  9. Ovation Elite 5 or Kala 5 into Line 6 Studio 10. Sorted.
  10. Good evening to you and welcome aboard. Best wishes Snorkie
  11. More than happy with my TBII from '64 in Inverness Green.
  12. Yep, I had one of these. Very impressive bass with great looks and sound. Unfortunately, a failed MOT put paid to mine though. GLWTS
  13. I can't argue with that. 🫀
  14. Can't afford a '59 Fender, so have a CS '59 P-bass instead. πŸ˜‰
  15. 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.
