[quote name='xilddx' timestamp='1366541639' post='2053661'] I have no complaints whatsoever. It a wonderful forum and very well moderated for the most part. The odd few complainers don't really indicate a trend for me. [/quote] This. It's a model of how an Internet forum should be. The mods should be harder on the 36 hour bumping rule in market place but that's my ONLY criticism. They do a good job and I have learned lots here from the people

I don't play gigs but I would have no trouble wearing them

It does ring vague bells - think I saw a review once in BGM ?

20-30 quid then seems fair - I shall put them Through the washing machine

I have two of these spare. Both are black with white Fender logo in really good condition. Came with Japanese fenders Quite thickly padded Does anyone have any idea of what a fair price for these would be ?

Yeti was unfailingly polite and willing to learn about basschat. We had a good trade. Happy to deal with him again.

It's not cheap to stock fender

I have it. Almost done but progress is slow due to demands on my time. I'm a bit disappointed with it TBH

I want it for a replica project - sunburst and maple 73 p in alder and nitro When I mentioned John mcvie I was just trying to give a general idea of what I wanted soundwise It doesn't have to be perfect

Thanks Want sound like John mcvie in dreams off rumours album

Never done so - but would like to. Intending to jam soon with a friend who writes songs but nervous due to the laughably small amount of practice time I get

thanks - dont know how expensive they are.

Thanks - think its between the wizard trad and Duncan spb1 Aiming for the sound on the Joshua tree which to me, along with John mcvies sound, is the definitive p bass sound

i was after making a 73. Andy at Wizard says his Trad model should sound like a late 60s early 70s pickup (although I hear what is being said about variabliity of components and manufacture). Anyone got any wisdom to share on what Andy is saying ? from my perspective close is probably ok - im not [b]that[/b] much of a purist.

Is the pickup in a real 70s p the same as the one in a 60s p ? Do they sound a like? Can anyone advise which fender or aftermarket pickup would sound most like a real 70s p ? Given alder nitro body with maple neck Planning a build .... Thanks
