There's a couple for sale right now in the marketplace, budget depending of course

i wouldn't worry about it being a badass bridge, its a straight replacement if you ever wanted to put the OE one back on, and they're nothing special.I'd buy it, if it were me.

i've had a jap strat and jazz bass - I regret selling both.

[quote name='SpondonBassed' timestamp='1495272840' post='3302594'] Fair enough. (You're not a nun either are you?) [/quote] No- I have small children and a long commute

[quote name='bazztard' timestamp='1495209841' post='3302206'] THIS fret wraps reduce unwanted finger- on- rounds noise and resonances anyone suggesting it mutes fretted notes has a poor understanding of physics , musical knowledge and logic [/quote] Only thing that will do that surely is a bridge end mute

[quote name='SpondonBassed' timestamp='1495262292' post='3302473'] I like the idea as a "get out of jail free" option to have in the bag when jamming but I'd want to relearn, in my own time, the tune on an open fretboard later. I don't have any tunes in my rep that require special tunings other than drop D for which I have a five. I like to keep things simple. [/quote] Sure but I only play st OM nights and get zero practice time so it's my best option

i shamelessly use a capo when I'm feeling too tired to think about moving a pattern to another key I've not troubled what anyone else thinks

[quote name='wateroftyne' timestamp='1495133712' post='3301596'] *squints at photo* How does it have any effect on non-open strings? Am I missing something? [/quote] I had the same thought...

Who has this now?

Doesn't the crime flake off with real use ? Certainly gave a good enough result for my purposes

yes, typo on my part there, typed E meant N - pesky iphones some info : [url="https://www.talkbass.com/threads/fender-jazz-bass-with-a-one-piece-pickguard-american-traditional-90s-mim-etc.857688/"]https://www.talkbass...mim-etc.857688/[/url] If you read down that thread, you'll see a suggestion that they also made some of these in 83 - an E prefixed serial so I was potentially right without even knowing it. Go me. So those would possibly be US-made as the NAfta maquiladora thing hadnt really got going then.

[quote name='NancyJohnson' timestamp='1495022002' post='3300499'] I'm sure this is how my wife does her roast potatoes. [/quote] in tupperware ?

Late 80s American made What's the serial ? E8 something ?

ohh [sad face] too much - enjoy though

Oh nice can I ask how much? Not that I have a birthday coming up at all

Try a mixture of vinegar, green toilet duck and a little salt-don't be tempted to put it near a metal container-it will burn its way through aluminium - Tupperware works well

[quote name='stingrayPete1977' timestamp='1494930135' post='3299609'] [url="https://www.netlawman.co.uk/ia/selling-goods-non-owner#Seller"]https://www.netlawma...on-owner#Seller[/url] in possession after sale This sums it up as clearly as possible imo and for all but the most complicated of cases as long as you can prove the goods are yours you'll be handed them back and the buyer, in this case cash converters, lose out and need to take up the dispute with the person that bought them in. [/quote] Assuming that person hasnt injected the proceeds by then

i know a guy who has 30, and THEN bought one more off me. Yes he is a member here

[quote name='Stylon Pilson' timestamp='1494925093' post='3299559'] I don't believe that this is correct. With the exception of some very specific circumstances, you can't sell something that you don't legally own. The general rule is that the original owner is always protected. S.P. [/quote] True - but consider the concept of second buyer without notice

[quote name='SpondonBassed' timestamp='1494917191' post='3299475'] Don't let the shop know if you can still avoid doing so. As said already see if you can secure the gear with a deposit. Even if you never get that back it's worth it for a beloved guitar. The Police may take some time. [/quote] Totally disagree from a legal point of view, once you've told them they will be handling stolen goods if they sell

[quote name='Bassmonkey' timestamp='1494883835' post='3299357'] Cheers guys. I am gonna go there tomorrow and take it from there. Sure it won't be the first time this has happened. [/quote] No they should hold it as soon as you advise, as it isn't theirs to sell once they know Give it to them in the form of a letter
