    In classic black/white/maple. Just one very minor ding on the back of the neck, no other damage at all, anywhere. The ding could be steamed out or filled with a blob of epoxy, but I stopped noticing it very quickly. Pots and pickups seem to be original and work smoothly and without extraneous noise and under the bellplate, its all tidy. It has fresh .45 - .105 strings. Serial starts Z309 Comes with ABS Fender hard case (plush dark blue lining, hidden compartment, fender logo and headstock design outer), this is non-locking but all catches work smoothly. There are a very few minor scuffs on the case but thats only to be expected on a ten year old item. Please note that this beauty does not have the S1 switch, although its simple to add the series/parallel function with a push-pull DPDT pot. Can be viewed/collected from near Sutton In Ashfield (j28 m1), Nottinghamshire. I will ship (reluctantly due to risk) at cost based on reaching agreement with buyer. I do travel around quite a bit too so happy to meet to avoid risk if it can be arranged. I think this is worth £700 as its so nice, please PM me with any questions as I dont seem to get all email notifications. My feedback thread is linked in my signature. http://i1149.photobucket.com/albums/o600/geek99/US%20jazz/37617564-6CCE-435F-A7A3-BCBC09BAA0A1-3114-00000232B3FF7FBF_zpsa288c849.jpg STRAIGHT SALE ONLY (please) Update - bass now SOLD to a basschat member, case still available. Looking for around £50 for it?

    I picked up a pup from a classic 50s model on eBay for £8 Don't discount used eBay items - you can get more for your buck sometimes
  7. Geek99
    What previous listing ?

    [quote name='Evil Undead' timestamp='1376941818' post='2181348'] Cheers guys. I'm sure it will be fine, but bad experiences really sit with a person... I'm sure we've all been there. Is there any way I can tell just by looking at it whether the truss rod will be all good or not? [/quote] Hold the low E string at the first and last fret and look at the gap at the 12th fret - should be about 0.5mm - 1mm - even if its more or less its likely sortable provided you can shift the truss rod nut/screw by a quarter turn or so its probably ok. Edit for corrected value

    Just a thought but some cameras and phones encode their GPS location into the meta data of the images. You can show eBay that the images were taken at your house , not the registered address of the lister

    bump
  11. Geek99
    Yep I've not got as far yet

    [quote name='kemper162' timestamp='1376578805' post='2176367'] Huge thanks to everyone... feeling a whole lot better about it now. [/quote] I was awful for this Don't worry too much it does get better with time Maybe lessons would help ?

    Thanks chaps - first thing to deal with is new strings. Ones on it are older than god
  14. Geek99
    Yes it's string thru - thx for reminding me about that. Where do I get a matching black knob with button ? Any ideas people ?
  15. Geek99
    No it has a proper hard case and hang tags and its def urethane
  16. Geek99
    It's not got an S1 sadly - does anyone else gave an 03 that doesn't ? There is no secret button but I haven't fished the plate off yet to look there It's very fluffy sounding so I'm guessing it needs new strings
  17. Geek99
    Try also www.playbassnow.com and google Scott Levine who has lots of free stuff A little theory goes a long way Asking for help is also brave so well done

    I used to have a magna pro 2 - do you have pics of the cliff burton bass ?
  19. Geek99

  20. Geek99
    Yep agree
  21. Geek99
    Wow-really ? Where is the switch ? It has black knobs
  22. Geek99
    Early MIMs did have strat knobs I think
  23. Geek99
    Any features missing that are added to later models, or added that weren't on previous ones ? Advice please Thanks
  24. Geek99
    You'd be covered under parcelforce regulations if that's the case
