Interested if still available

Is that hardcover version?!

Cheers @Maude, appreciate the advice and well wishes

might take a tonne of pictures during the process and throw up a “look what I did” post in the builds section when it’s done

Thankyou for the heads up, no need to apologise! The point you made had been mentioned previously by someone else also, not really something I had considered previously to be honest

after mulling it over, think I’m gonna go with the plan of just painting, see how it goes, if it does start getting a bit ugly I think I’ll consider the pickguard route then but for now, think I’m just gonna see what happens really

Ah unfortunately it’s nothing that involved or complicated, he’s just going to fill the existing pickup routes on my sr300 and re-route for a PJ configuration. I plan to paint the body, neck and headstock all black and that’s about as exciting as it gets really

still trying to decide whether I want to retain black hardware or go for gold

Thanks @Maude will send him a message, see if he can help out

And just like that...all my searching gets trumped! 
Thank you for that! 

£30 ONO gets it to your door
 

Up for sale / swaps / trade are the active pickups and associated circuitry / loom that I have just taken out of my Ibanez SR300 due to a bit of a reconfiguration
 

pickups both have stickers on the underside indicating 

EXF 4ST F (Neck Pickup)

EXF 4ST R (bridge pickup) and has the active “sweeper style” eq
 

Controls and wires have all been labelled as they were removed so relatively easy to tell what goes where

all working perfectly, just surplus to requirements

trades /swaps considered, please PM me for further details

Any questions, fire away

Hey all, I’m about to embark on a bit of a project piece (with the help of our very own @Andyjr1515) and am looking for a bit of help if possible....

I’m looking at modifying and painting and old Ibanez SR300 that I have 

I plan on painting the headstock to match the body (already does but I’m looking at different colours) I’ve been looking all over the internet but can’t seem to find anyone that does replacement headstock badges/decals for the SDGR range, 

I did find one place that does water slide decals and have emailed them about doing a metallic / shiney / reflective one but 2 weeks later have had no answer back. Tried emailing Ibanez themselves but again, no reply at all!

does anyone know where I can source one from or does anyone have the know how to make one up at all?!

any help is massively appreciated, have attached a picture of the existing for your viewing pleasures / reference

To be honest, no. 
ive repainted guitar bodies in the past with “proper guitar paint” before and they’ve normally been rock hard in less than two weeks.

following all the same processes this time but with the cheaper wilko paint I couldn’t understand why it’s not hardening, didn’t know if it was me or the paint :-s 

maybe your right, I should learn a bit more patience

Hey all, 

Trying to keep this brief, 

lockdown = boredom

boredom = guitar build on a “what have I got laying around” budget

I’ve now sprayed the body with some wilko own brand spray paint (a can and a half of light, misting coats over a period of three days) roll on four weeks later and it’s STILL not drying or going hard, finger nail marks are easy to do and it marks easily enough with the creases of my hands, if I hold any part of it 

I can’t work out why or how I can get around It?!

im wondering if I cover it in a quick drying clear coat whilst it’s still in this state, would that work?!

or would it be best to start again and choose a different colour with some proper quality paint?!

any help or advice anyone can give would be great may appreciated

Up for grabs I’ve got a Lakland Skyline Series Jazz neck

Originally bought from @Raslee of this parish

Neck was used on my precision for some time as I prefer jazz width necks but have put the bass up for sale so have this now going spare

Neck has a set of gotoh style machines and is in good working order, Frets are all good, truss rod working as it should

Neck will need a new nut as the last one snapped because I’m a bit of a heavy handed goon

There is a small dent in the 4th fret under the G but nothing that you can feel or that affects its use / playability 

there is some chipping to the wood around the truss rod nut that was present when I got it, nothing that detracts from the aesthetics or usability

Trades or reasonable offers considered

Price includes UK insured shipping and I will ensure it is wrapped well

any questions, fire away...

Original neck back on it and a set up and she’s ready to go

PM’d

@AndyTravis & @ead bloody blimey, I didn’t even notice that! Definately a typo on my behalf! Has been corrected! 
 

cheers fellas

PRICE DROPPED TO £575 AS HAVE LAKLAND NECK FOR SALE SEPERATELY

Tentatively up for grabs I’ve got my 2008 Highway One Precision

Bass itself is in fair condition for a 12 year old gigged bass, a few nicks, scrapes and paint chips here and there, nothing horrendous, all genuine road worn badges of honour

Strung with (dare I say it) 7 year old labella deep talkin’ flats which sound just glorious 

The neck is still in as new condition and I believe, with it being the later model Highway One,has the dual reinforcement rods hiding in there somewhere

Pickups have been upgraded to Seymour Duncan SPB-3’s (I think) 

Bass still holds the original Badass II bridge with grooved saddles

This bass has been my pride and joy since I first bought it, my first proper Fender bass and I am reluctantly selling it to fund some other GAS related items

Would consider trades / swaps / deals for any of the below

Mexican precision bass, colour not important, if it has a jazz neck on it then bonus! the more beat up looking the better, no maple necks please 

Maple jazz neck or something similar that I can use on my ongoing ‘51 slab precision build

Ibanez SR bass, colour not so important, must have PJ pickup configuration 

Would also consider reasonable offers

Happy to work out a social distanced swap/exchange/meet

Any questions, queries, photo requests, anything at all, fire away and I’ll do what I can to accommodate

What are the chances this is still for sale?!

I don't have your bass but feel your pain. I had two early 90s Fujigen SR800s, fretted & fretless, sold them both. And often wish I hadn't.

Was a fantastic bass, rarely do they come up for sale anymore

Afraid I can't help with the hunt but I've found myself hankering back to a lovely CAR P special that I sold to @Damonjames of this parish about 5 years ago.  Bloody stupid decision, but at least now you know that it's not just you!

I’d imagine it happens a lot more than is shared ha ha

Is 6-7 years too late to get sellers remorse?!

trying to see if I can find the owner of a bass I sold a while back, see if it ended up In the hands of a basschatter with the VERY SLIM possibility, if it has, are they looking to sell it?!

the bass....

1993 Ibanez SR800le in a black-ish pearlescent type colour, was in good nick when I sold it and the original hardcase with it sadly was not in such a condition but still useable!

i sold it on eBay and if I remember rightly, was sent to around the bishops stortford area

i found this ominous weblink to the original eBay listing 

https://www.worthpoint.com/worthopedia/mij-ibanez-sdgr-sr800le-sr800-bass-502445751

Will try and see if I still have any other pictures of it and post them here

anyone recognise it? Anyone have it?!

would be most excellent if it was for sale again, I’d whip it back in a second 

thanks in advance all

Thanks for the input guys and gals, just scored myself a SVT 410HLF for an absolute steal, well chuffed!!

Cheers guys, appreciate the advice

Long story short...

My Amp - SVT II Pro

My Current Cab - none due to stupidly selling my SVT610 in the search for something smaller / lighter

currently eyeing up at very reasonable prices

Ampeg B410HLF

Markbass TRV 102 P

which way would you turn?!

or would you leave either well alone?!

opinions and experiences with both greatly appreciated 
 

Go.....
