Love this bass....have a bump on me

Yeah sorry guys....itchy trigger finger on the tablet

Lee Pomeroy,yes that's the guy.

felt sorry for Ella Henderson who was supporting, she's got a great voice but the sound was shocking,typical support act sound,all Boom Boom Boom.

Anyone know who the drummer was ?

Well,got dragged kicking and screaming to see Take That yesterday by the missus,must admit I wasn't expecting much but OMG.....I f....g loved it.

The band was brilliant especially the drummer,didn't catch has the bass players name,think it was Lee something ,left handed guy with a cool looking black Ricky.

Wish I was going again tonight......

I'd probably leave the neck as it is if it's all original, obviously the bodies worth has been decreased, but if you ever sell it, the neck would up the worth if its untouched.
However if the neck has also been fiddled with previously, refinished etc, then why not!

Yeah I take your point Si,the neck is original and one of the best Fender jazz necks I've played and that's the main reason I've invested in the renovation work to be honest.

I'm thinking about having a matching headstock,I've got some buckeye left and Brian has the Fender decals so can get the logo and serial number back on, must admit I'm very very pleased with it and it sounds great

Thanks guys,here you go

Well,after playing this bass for a few months,I decided I wasn't going to sell it,so I bit the bullet and here's the finished bass

£600,is that just for the cab ?

Been playing for over 40 years,loved every minute of it,probably describe myself as competent

My two older brothers .....one a drummer, the other a guitarist...before I knew it I was in a band

I'm looking for a bit of advice on pricing 1970's vintage Fender jazz bass pickups.

I've got a 1978 Fender jazz bridge pick up , a 1982 Fender jazz bridge pick up and a 197--? last number unreadable, fender jazz, neck pick up, I'm looking to sell them on but I've no idea as to pricing them.

Any idea's ?

Thanks in advance Ian
