  1. Why is this? I've been lucky enough to own a few (still have one) and they're really fantastic basses. Is it a style and fashion thing? If so, is the time to buy a future classic?
  2. Spotted this on eBay last week, listed as an American Deluxe, but it's clearly got an Indonesian Squire neck and certainly isn't a Deluxe. I'm doubtful if it's even a Fender body! I reported to ebay but it's still live... Why?? https://rover.ebay.com/rover/0/0/0?mpre=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ebay.co.uk%2Fulk%2Fitm%2F273755648756
  3. That is a bargain. I've got one of these (mine's a 97) and it's a joy. The neck is pretty much perfect, nice and slim, super smooth and very playable. The body is so comfortable and it sits lovely on the strap and knee. Believe it or not, this was my weapon of choice for my last funk & soul band. It cuts through the mix beautifully, just enough treble and plenty of thump! Whoever buys this is getting an absolute belter, glwts!
  4. I imagine it would make some difference, not sure if it would be audible anywhere other than in the studio though, although I'd love to hear your thoughts if you do a/b them. My PJ Jazz has gone off with my tech today so I can't do any measurements until the weekend, but I assume it's either Reggie or Blacktop spec as the scratchplate doesn't look homemade. Hoping it's a Reggie as I want to get a tort plate for it 😬
  5. Looks like you're right. The Reggie Hamilton Jazz P pickup seems to be set back a little from the traditional P placement
  6. If I hadn't just bought a 60s Jazz modded to PJ, I'd be all over this.
  7. Heads up, theres a Fender Reggie Hamilton Jazz with PJ pups on ebay atm - https://rover.ebay.com/rover/0/0/0?mpre=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ebay.co.uk%2Fulk%2Fitm%2F163583437859

  9. I've just picked up a used MIM Jazz which the previous owner has had converted to PJ. Could be an option if you get a reasonable priced Jazz and get the work done. I would think the conversion would be pretty straight forward, getting a scratch plate may be a bit of a hassle but not a huge deal.
  10. Genius! Stealing this thank you 😁 Now to find a android/Windows version of Capo translation software. Awesome post 👍🏻
  11. I own the 4 string "twin" of this bass and can honestly say, it's an absolute beast. Solid, beautiful to play, awesome sound, lovely neck, just an all round stunning bass. At this money, it's an absolute bargain! If I could cope with the extra string, I wouldn't hesitate to buy this. GLWTS!
  12. Really need this gone now, GAS has got the better of me... £450 and she's yours!!!!
  13. After a surprisingly disappointing interaction with BD, the bass I was part-exing with was sold to someone else so the Warwick is still for sale...
  14. Awesome, closest I'll get to a yob too... You defo not interested in trades..? 😁
  15. 😮 Not usually a fan of white basses but that is just lovely. It looks quite creamy on my phone, is that a fair representation of the colour?
  16. Personally I'm inclined to agree, I do love the simplicity and authentic look of an ebony board, but if it helps the player hit notes more accurately, it could be justified to override asthetics. Each to his own I suppose 👍🏻
