Been playing with La'bellas recently and forgot how much I like TI flats, a pitty they don't come in a higher gauge though...

You're so right, and I'm by no means certain I'm going to move this on, it just seems a bit of a waste sat in my front room. I may just accept that it's going to get the occasional knock and gig with it, I shall see what happens. This is from 2013, number 88 of 250.

Think I'm going to gig with this old girl next week but not so keen on the Pyramid gold I put on last week, I have some old TI flats or some chromes....... I think the TI flats win out...

This goes down as a very tentative feeler. This is without doubt the best sounding amp I have ever played through, I've played three medium sized venues with ease with this, however the last time I took it out it got a little dink on a corner (actually a tiny dink which you can see just above the A on Ampeg), but it was enough to make me leave this in my front room as a rather extravagant practice amp! It's not the easiest thing to transport, in fact it's rather awkward, there are metal studs on the back suggesting that you can lay it down however I don't like the amount of pressure it puts on the head brackets so always stand it up in the car. I would consider a trade for a Mesa boogie walkabout which is something I'd feel happier gigging with, with cash my way, let me know.

I found that I would need the eq so that the bass was about 3 o'clock and treble at 1 o'clock for a nice fat sound.

I am a Precision person, and that is a beaut...

another price drop, yours for only £3200 English pounds

It's certainly a beautiful looking bass, and no spare strings 🤔

Basic error..I forgot to mention this beauties weight!! For those of you who are interested she weighs in at a rather shoulder friendly 7.8lb

What's the internal dimension?

[quote name='Bbiigg Kev' timestamp='1484740400' post='3217922'] Could be worse, could be a six [/quote] 2 spare strings?

[quote name='Bbiigg Kev' timestamp='1484666175' post='3217300'] How about a Grand Master Custom five string [/quote] Unfortunately I'm not sure what I'd do with that "spare" string

[quote name='Bbiigg Kev' timestamp='1484654117' post='3217164'] Do you need cash or is a trade an option ? [/quote] Could be interested in a partial trade for an late 60's or early 70's Fender.

Having done a little more research into the case, I'm not 100% sure it's an original Fender, it could be, but I'm not certain. Either way it's a cool case with loads of mojo which goes with this bass beautifully. So a couple of hundred quid off, price drop to £3300.

Towards the end of 1964, Fender starting using pearloid fret markers, below are the fret markers from my June 64 which has the "clay" (or whatever it was) fret markers.

It still has the clay on the top dots though, they didn't go until 65 I think...

These are great, added to a CMD121p is the perfect rig..
