  1. I have an Overwater by Tanglewood Classic Jazz, in black, with Fender PJ pickups. It's just a year old, in good condition bar the odd small scratch and scrape, has been professionally setup and is fitted with lovely D'Addario chrome flatwounds, and an after market thumb rest. It will come with the original pickups. These basses are excellent value for money, being somewhat better quality than a Squier but in the same price bracket. Normally this would go for around £150-170 secondhand but it comes with genuine Fender pups worth £60. So I think the value I've placed on it is fair. What I'm after is a Hohner Jack headless four or five string, in good nick, with active electronics. Plus cash your way to balance the books.
  2. I have a J and P pup of a Fender if anyone's interested in upgrading the pups on their bass? Happy to keep them but if you want them I can always develop this post with pics n details.
  3. would you split? I need the bridge pup.
  4. I need a Fender bridge pup for my tanglwater PJ. Would one of yours fit?
  5. Update: tracked it to a faulty pan pot
  6. Hi I've got a Tanglewater Classic Jazz (PJ config) and have just replaced the P (neck) pup with one off a Fender MIA Precision, retaining the original Overwater bridge pickup for now. But now one of the pickups won't work. Shortly after I installed the Fender neck pick up the pan, or blend?, pot decided to only work at one extreme - the bridge pickup. If I put the pot 50/50 in the middle I got some signal, but with it turned full towards the neck pickup - no sound. I thought maybe the Fender pup was knackered, but just to be sure I swapped the pickup wires over on the pot connectors, neck for bridge and bridge for neck. Then the Fender pup worked and the bridge pup didn't. So it's like the problem is with what would normally be the neck half of the pan pot's swivel range. But the cut out is both progressive and smooth and there's no crackle or anything from the pot. Is it possible for a pot to fail in this partial manner, or have I got some wierd phase reversal issue happening? If the latter, what's the answer? I tried to search for the issue and Seymour Duncan instructions mention that earth and power wires have to be reverse if pairing one of their pups with a Fender, but that only seemed to relate to pairing two single coil jazz pickups, and even then they don't mention one pup cutting out completely.
  7. so are these £50 (value) or £85 as in the body copy?
  8. Do the pups on the v7 hum?
  9. On the slim chance that someone has experience of both these puppies, I have the choice of a Hohner VI B Bass in decent nick, or a spalt mapled topped ESP LTD B206 in excellent nick for the same price. In terms of quality and tone, which is more beauty?
  10. Have a bump on me. I cannot afford it... well i can but my missus might seperate me from my important bits if I bought it. lovely looking bit of kit.

  15. Read this blog by New York pro Chris Tarry [url="http://christarry.com/my-p-bass-is-a-jedi-master.html"]http://christarry.com/my-p-bass-is-a-jedi-master.html[/url]
  16. Washburn XB600, black and active with soapbar pickups. Very good condition with no significant dings. Just setup, with brand new Overwater nickel roundwound strings and fingerboard oiled. It plays sweetly with a low action - 0.3mm relief and 1.4-2.6mm @ 12 fret string height. The fingerboard is not too wide for 6 string beginners or those with small hands. Truss rods both work fine. Pots don't crackle, and the quality tuners turn smoothly. Not too heavy and no nose dive on a strap. This is an excellent introduction to multistring playing for knockabout money. [s]£150[/s] £125 picked up from north Suffolk or posted for an additional £20, including insurance.
  17. TC Ditto Looper pedal. Brand new, only been out of the box once and therefore as new. It comes with a brand new power supply of the right spec. Please note the Ditto doesn't come with a power supply as new, so please factor in this essential add-on when considering the price. £70 posted. That's saving about £16-20.
