  1. Selling my fretless 1971 Fender Jazz. As you can see the neck was replaced sometime in the early 80's by WAL (note the little whale logo) and has in inaid fretboard with the initials "MW" (this change was done for Mike Wedgewood, who at the the time was a session player with performers such as Elton John and Kiki Dee). He also had EMG pickups put in at the same time. I had it given the treatment (checking all electrics, adjusting intonation etc) by Bernie Goodfellow of GB guitars a few years ago, so I can vouch for its recent work having been carried out by a true master. I have had it for the last 15 years or so, but just plain old don't use it anymore. Also, frankly, I need some cash for a bigger car for arrival of new baby imminently ! I really dont want to end up giving this amazing bass away for virtually free, so even if you dont want it, any advice anyone can offer me would be greatly appreciated. I am a hoarder, not a seller, so dont really know the protocols for this kind of thing! I want £1,800 and am in the Reading area [attachment=118003:DSC03524.JPG][attachment=118005:DSC03525.JPG][attachment=118006:DSC03527.JPG][attachment=118008:DSC03528.JPG][attachment=118009:DSC03529.JPG][attachment=118010:DSC03530.JPG][attachment=118012:DSC03531.JPG][attachment=118002:DSC03523.JPG]!
  2. Thanks for replies all ... will get on with it later today !
  3. had two woolly mammoths that have both fallen apart on me now ... what the hell is going on? can anyone suggest something more robust (i thought they were supposed to be pretty tough) that works with an active bass and actually sounds half decent ?!
  4. evening bass players .... does anyone have any advice on how to sell a really nice bass (1971 fretless fender jazz with work done by noted legends) without ebaying it or letting a shop do it, thus avoiding effectively giving it away? I want it to go to a genuinely good home and I dont want to have my time wasted! (all the usual stories apply about impending baby, need bigger car, cant justify having it as I never use it etc apply). Sorry to ask such a cheap sounding question as my introduction ... but I thought you guys might have some sage advice !!! Any helpful suggestions really gratefully received ...
