Move up to Glasgow, look on gumtree and you will find lots of people looking for bass players. The majority of the advertisers are off their nut but hey you`ll get a laugh. Seriously, stick an ad in gumtree and partysounds as they are free and get your own thing together. Jez

Guy finds 62/63 Shell Pink Jazz Bass..it's all going off on Talkbass
jezzaboy replied to umcoo's topic in General Discussion
It`s all kicked off again with our friends across the pond. After having another thread about this bass stopped, the guy has had the bass inspected and has put up lots of new pics. Worth a look.

Good to here that Steven as I have a MD coming my way on tuesday! If this was Talkbass we could start a club!. How did the gig with the new band go? Jez

I have 2 squiers at the mo and they are both good. I have upgraded some of the hardware with half decent budget gear and have gigged them lots and I have never had any complaints. Like all mass produced things, if you get a good un, bingo!! Jez

Here we go regarding the neck: Blocks and binding were introduced in 66 The large block decal goes on the P and Jazz from 69 and was changed to the smaller size fron 76. At the same time the serial number moves from the neckplate to the face of the headstock under the logo. From 75 onwards, the jazz 3 bolt neck becomes the norm. This looks like the neck on the bass in question due to the truss rod. So, I reckon it`s a 75 or 76 neck. All info from the Fender bass book aka "fender bass bible." Jez

Hmmmm, not sure about this Wal ... at all.
jezzaboy replied to Clarky's topic in eBay - Weird and Wonderful
Don`t know about the bass but if it sells he should use some of the money for a full stop. Jez -

This is a feeler for the moment as I`m not 100% certain of moving this on. It`s a Fender classic 60`s Jazz that I bought from guitarguitar last year. I lusted after one of these for a while as I really like the sunburst finish, reverse tuners, the gloss neck, tortiseshell scratchplate.... I am playing with a band at the moment in the studio and on friday took my Squeir P bass down for a change and according to the guys it sits a lot better in the mix as they say. I was going to get a P pickup fitted to this but it was gonna cost around £140 all in and it would destroy what the Jazz is all about. So what I`m looking for is a P bass. A classic 50`s, Mike Dirnt, a decent Mex standard, one of the classic vibe P basses or a Yam 414 or similar, you get the idea. I would do a straight swap for the classic 50`s or a Mike Dirnt but would be looking for cash my way for the others depending on what it is. As for a cash price I would be looking for around £460. As for condition, this has a few marks. A small ding on the front near the jack socket is the only one visable from the front, a small ding on top of the belly contour, 2 very small marks on the laquer at the end of the headstock-these are on the edge and cannot be seen from the front and one very small pressure mark on the back near the bottom. I have tried to photo them. I will be putting the original Fender strap pins back on. Any offers please pm me.

How close to the original bass line would you play in a covers band?
jezzaboy replied to molan's topic in General Discussion
I try and keep as near as possible to the original bassline until I run out of talent/ability which can happen very quickly! After that I just make up a part that sounds ok to me and hopefully the rest of the band. Jez -

Bands would be great things if it wasn`t for the tossers that are in them! Take a break and you will return revitalised, a better man for the experiances you have had. Jez

Fender USA '62 Jazz Bass refinish at home
jezzaboy replied to kevin_lindsay's topic in General Discussion
Superb job there. Don`t usually like pink basses but the matching headstock really sets this one off. Jez -

I got this in a trade a couple of weeks ago from Pikeman. It is a brilliant piece of kit in fantastic condition but as I am bandless and in love with my Fender Jazz, I`m offering it for sale for £340 posted or £330 collected. As most of you are aware, the SR series have slim necks, are lightweight and the 500 has Bartolini pickups and active circut. It is fitted with Schaller straplocks and they will stay with the bass. There are no chips or any damage on the bass. If you need shipping, I will place it inside an old padded gig bag and pack it well. Please note the gig bag is intended for protection only although it could be used. Payment by paypal as gift or by cheque. If you are collecting the bass, I will supply a nice shiny Fender gig bag. No trades please. Any questions fire away.....

£33 to see what is really only a covers band
jezzaboy replied to Blademan_98's topic in General Discussion
Weren`t the APF the guys who played Gilmours 50th birthday party? Not a bad endorsment. A few years ago I went and seen a Led zep tribute band, a whole lotta led I think, at the Ferry and the same year Page and Plant were touring. Guess which one was better? Yep the tribute band. £33 may seem steep but by all accounts it`s a highly profesional show and it`s not like you are gonna see the pinkies anytime soon. Jez
