    I think you are talking about the long scale Jag NewF? The short scale as far as I know is only passive?

    One with Rory and Gerry McAvoy.

    I have owned a SS Jag and very nice it was to. Stock, it played nice, spent a few quid on tuners and a bridge but kept the original pickups and it was a cracking little bass. Should have kept it but hey ho. If you have played the Squier, I would go with it as they can range form dreadful to great and you seem to like it. There is a large thread on the Jag on a US bass forum

    The worst one I can recall was a drummer who played a Town called malice 3 times and he played it different each time. He then told me I was doing it wrong so I played it by myself note perfect just to show him but to no avail. As was said earlier, the longest 10 mins is when you are packing up your gear after having words with 4 other guys who know they are right!

    Played the Hard rock cafe in Glasgow last night. First time in there and the staff and the promoters, Shock city, looked after us very well. Free soft drinks, a meal, great sound guy and the place was full. Only drawback is it`s in the pedestrian part of the town and there is no back way in so we had to park the car and move the gear with hand barrows. And the parking is a nightmare. But you have to expect that in the middle of the city. Used my new Sandberg and was well impressed. This was our first gig for the promoters and they were so happy they payed us an extra £100!! And they will get us more and bigger gigs in the future.

    I sold one of these to a guy from the Dundee area a few years back and met him at the SECC when he went to see LS so just thought I`d ask. These are cracking basses and this is the best colour combo. GLWTS!

    Nice to hear of the good side of retail sometimes. Glad you are happy with the deal!

    Hi Shawman. Might be a daft question but did you buy this G&L whilst in Glasgow seeing Lynard Skynard? If not have a bump on me.

    It`s having a wee snooze.

    If you like the OLP, a secondhand MM from here will be dinky. There are some nice ones for a grand or under. Especially that black and maple jobbie.

    Right, this might be a stupid question but hey it won`t be the first! I have been reading the FRFR thread. Now I have just saved rock n roll by buying a ABM 500 and was looking at getting a 15 " cab to go with it. Would I be better looking at a passive pa speaker rather than a bass cab? Are the passive pa cabs a good bet to handle a bass amp as most of what you hear at gig is foh anyway?

    Straight sale only now.
  15. jezzaboy
    Good point. Thats the only pics I could find of that style of head.

    After Bridgehouse saves Rock n Roll with a Marshall, here is my own contribution. I sold my Rumble last year as we were mostly doing gigs with supplied backline, there is now some gigs on the horizon where we need to bring our own gear. So a good excuse to get something with a bit of oommph. As a long time Ashdown fan, I spotted this in GG so pulled the trigger. It`s an ABM 500 EVO 2 but I havent seen any heads this size. It is in what looks like an official Asdown head sleeve but all the heads I have seen are a good bit shorter without the vents at the ends. This style of head looks like the ones fitted to the EVO 2 combo. I might drop them a line and see if I can get any info. It looks like it has never been used and is almost mint and needless to say the wife had a bloomin fit when I plugged it into my ABM 2 x 10 cab and gave it a bit of welly. It`s heavy, large and I love it already! Just need the 8 x 10 now... The saviour of Rock N Roll part 2!

    Having just bought a Sandberg myself, whoever gets this will be well happy. Great looking bass and a fantastic price. GLWTS.
  18. jezzaboy
    Price drop to £360. I have fitted the original bridge on the bass and it looks better. The hi mass bridge has left 4 very small indentations on the body which can only be seen when you tilt the bass into the light. They are so small, I can`t photograph them. Due to this, I will give you the hi mass bridge if you buy the bass and you can either fit it back on or punt it for cash. This price is a final price drop and if it doesnt sell at this price I will keep it. Collection preferred but if you want to arrange a courier, I will stick it in a hard case for protection and have someone here to hand to the courier. UK only and payment by bank transfer if it needs posting.

    Somebody has a Sire P/J for sale for silly money in the classifieds: nudge, nudge, wink , wink! But of the 3 you have mentioned, I would go with the Yamaha BB 734. The neck is between a P and a J, active / passive 3 band eq and a rock solid neck with the fancy mitre joint. I don`t think they do an Electra in a P/J version? Never owned a Schecter so don`t know. I own a Sandberg and it`s fantastic and have owned a few Yammies, still have an BB 1024 and if I was buying without playing one first with your budget, I would buy the Yamaha.

    There is a black one of these with a maple neck at bassdirect for £1295. Elsewhere on the site is a soft aged version and it says that it is a £285 option which is a lot of dough. Lovely looking bass GLWTS.

    Ooooooo shiny thing, with lights! Absolutely no use to anyone. Mine arrives next Monday!

    Unfortunately H it was not bought by someone on here but hey ho!

    Due to an expensive recent purchase I`m putting my Sire P7 up for sale only, no trade thanks. This is Version 2 with the new pickups, ebony board, matt finish on the back of the neck, gloss finish on the front of the headstock. The tuners have been changed to a brand new set of Schallers and the bridge barrels have been swapped for Wilkinson brass ones as I don`t like the look of the original ones which will be included. There is also a fresh set of D`addario strings fitted. It is fitted with the 18 volt pre amp which is a great bit of kit as the threads on here will confirm. The specs are below. It weighs 8.5 to 9 lb, it`s as near as I can tell from the Mrs scales. It`s a £460 bass new, this is as new with £60 worth of tuners and new strings thrown in. I would much prefer collection from Paisley just outside Glasgow, don`t mind driving a bit to meet up or I have a hard case which I can stick it in but you can arrange your own courier and I will make sure that someone is here to hand over. If you are wanting to do this, payment would have to be by bank transfer, UK only. Body Material: North American Alder Shape: Sire Precision Bass Type Neck Material: 1 Piece Hardmaple Shape: C-Shape Scale: 34” Neck Joint: 4 Bolt Steel Square Plate Fingerboard Material: Ebony Radius: 9.5” Frets: Medium, 20 Frets String Nut: Natural Bone 38mm width Binding: 1 ply Ivory Inlay: White Pearloid Block Electronics Pickups: Marcus Super Precision Advanced (Neck) + Jazz Advanced (Bridge) Preamp: Marcus Heritage- 3 with Middle Frequency Control Controls: Volume / Tone (Dual Pot) | Pickup Blender | Treble | Middle / Middle Frequency (Dual Pot) | Bass, Mini Toggle (Active / Passive) Knob: Modern Black Plastic Hardware Bridge: Heavy Mass Standard Tuning Gear: Sire Premium Open-Gear Hardware Finish: Chrome
