  1. The early Highway 1 Had truss rod access at head --after 2006 it was at the body end! -- Its not a Special sorry but there was another model USA with Truss rod access at headstock -- can't remember its title! Will.
  2. Looks like a Highway 1 or USA Special that has been refinished!
  3. Hi Jim Its a lovely Bass and I have enjoyed restoring it -- The Active circuit took some figuring out but is now working perfectly! Plays superbly and sounds awesome -- Pity its not a short scale otherwise it would not be going anywhere but I struggle these days unless its a short scale or very slim neck! Seasons greetings to one and all Will.
  4. [color=#000000][font=Helvetica][size=3]Lovely Musician Bass from June 1982 ---It has been Nicely stripped ( Originally White ) and has had many coats of Tru Oil applied and looks great![/size][/font][/color] [color=#000000][font=Helvetica][size=3]When I got it it had a cheap and nasty Musicman style pickup fitted in the neck position and the guy didn’t have the original Ibanez one so I have installed a genuine Gibson Thunderbird Pickup which sounds fantastic and blends well with the existing bridge pickup![/size][/font][/color] [color=#000000][font=Helvetica][size=3]The original active circuit has now been checked over and reinstalled correctly and works great! Passive mode works perfectly too.[/size][/font][/color] [color=#000000][font=Helvetica][size=3]As you probably know these are not lightweight basses but this one is a comfortable 4.7 kg and balances really nicely. Comes fitted with Straplocks and a nice “ Comfort “ Strap[/size][/font][/color] [color=#000000][font=Helvetica][size=3]Only other parts I have changed are the 3 Eq knobs for ones very similar to the original —The other 3 are the original Ibanez Sure Grip ones![/size][/font][/color] [color=#000000][font=Helvetica][size=3]Comes with a decent Hard/Soft case![/size][/font][/color] [color=#000000][font=Helvetica][size=3]Plays and sounds fantastic — a real Classy Bass![/size][/font][/color] [color=#000000][font=Helvetica][size=3]You are more than welcome to come and try it for yourself — No obligation![/size][/font][/color] [color=#000000][font=Helvetica][size=3]I have put a lot of time and money in to this Bass so would be looking for £350.00 Collected from Leeds ---May Trade for a Nice Jazz with Slim Neck with block markers or an interesting Short scale![/size][/font][/color] [color=#000000][font=Helvetica][size=3][attachment=207821:IMG_1818.jpg][attachment=207822:IMG_1819.jpg][attachment=207823:IMG_1820.jpg][attachment=207824:IMG_1821.jpg][attachment=207825:IMG_1822.jpg][attachment=207826:IMG_1823.JPG][attachment=207827:IMG_1824.jpg][attachment=207828:IMG_1825.JPG][attachment=207829:IMG_1826.JPG][attachment=207820:IMG_1817.jpg][/size][/font][/color]

  10. [quote name='thebuckets' timestamp='1450013795' post='2928758'] I think the Z5 serial number dates this to 2005 and that the p bass 60th anniversary was 2011. neither fact takes away that this is a fine looking USA p bass at a great price. have a bump [/quote] It refers to Fender's 60th anniversary as a company -- They were founded in 1946 ( My birth year ) and were on all Fender guitars and basses in 2006 -- Z5 neck was probably made in late 2005 and assembled in 2006. Will.
