  1. I've changed my mind before about selling this, so you'd better get in quick and grab yourself a great deal while you can. 👍
  2. Just been asked the weight of this bass. I've weighed myself holding it on the bathroom scales, weighs in a touch under 4kg.
  3. Higher def photo of the buckle rash (all superficial surface scratches):
  4. I think the black finish with black inlays on a maple neck looks cooler than on the limited run red version. And a lot more rock 🤘.
  5. Are you the seller of this bass by any chance? 😉
  6. There you have it everyone. Stone cold proof that this is a legit, one of a kind Geddy Lee Jazz Bass going for a seriously good price, and that @LewisK1975 is a great guy. 👍
  7. BB234s and BB434s. Just asking for a friend..😉
  8. So standard sized P and J bass pickups wouldn't fit into BB basses as direct replacements??
  9. Change the pickups on the Yamaha bass perhaps? DiMarzio do a nice PJ set that are great for the money.
  10. I'm in the process of moving flat in a hurry due to the landlord selling the property so unfortunately I need to raise some money quickly - this is a reluctant sale. As a result of a Fender factory mess up, this bass (serial number: US15099634) is a USA Geddy with a neck with black fretboard inlays (meant for the limited run red version), rather than the standard pearloid inlays. This is a unique one of a kind USA Geddy. More details on how this came about, and some correspondence with Fender to verify this, can be found on this thread from the bass's previous owner: https://www.basschat.co.uk/topic/302288-withdrawn-fender-usa-geddy-lee-signature-jazz-bass/ Plays and sounds as good as you've heard these basses do, the pickups are absolutely huge and beastly sounding and the tone control is the most effective and wide ranging I've ever experienced on any passive bass. The neck has a unique and super comfortable oiled back of the neck finish in addition to the period-specific finish and binding on the rest of the neck. Comes with Fender hard case with all the case accessories. Condition is overall very good with a dent on the bottom edge of the body, a bit of light finish scratching due to buckle rash and a couple of very small knocks on the headstock (please see photos). Due to the fact I have to move home, this is collection only from Preston Park area of Brighton. The price is firm, and reflects the need for a quick sale whilst also hopefully making it more appealing as a cash on collection only sale. Here is my feedback from previous Basschat sales for assurance of an honest transaction: https://www.basschat.co.uk/topic/306417-feedback-for-edlib-3/ If you have any questions or want additional pictures, message me. Thanks.
  11. Wow. Used StingRay going for more than a brand-new StingRay Special currently costs, and without a case! GLWTS bud! 🤯🤣 https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/175430296035?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0&ssspo=qnbqxc6aske&sssrc=2349624&ssuid=chYBtFrLRES&var=&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY
  12. To use the words of Rick James: 'cocaine's a hell of a drug!' 😁
  13. This is one shabby display. One of the worst that springs to mind from a pro bassist:
  14. I can't believe what I'm reading! Maxwell Murder, for me, is up there with the best bass solos ever. I absolutely love it 🤯
  15. Price drop: now £275. Really a rather good price for a rare and cool bass.
  16. They're great pickups!! You'll be very pleased with the difference they make to your Squier. 👍
  17. Indeed, they've not managed to release anything since that comes close to the brilliance of BSSM, let alone topping it.
  18. Seething with menace! Love that, that is a totally spot on description of that album! It's a totally unique sounding album in their back catalogue. The last three or four have sounded largely the same for me.
  19. As I mentioned previously, One Hot Minute is an album I've grown to appreciate more and more over the years. I dig the Dave Navarro era, anyone else a fan of the more rocking Navarro Chili Peppers? Also that album to me, is Kiedis's songwriting as its best. The lyrics are really memorable and coherent.
  20. And you have to admit the timing points towards money being a motivating factor. Anyhoo, there may be some great music on the rest of the album where they take some chances and bring back some of the energy of their earlier music.
  21. I have to say I'm not entirely convinced John Frusciante's heart is in this. Him rejoining for the second time after about 12 years of working on his own music - totally unlike RHCP, came very shortly after reports that he took a big financial hit with a very costly divorce settlement. All of a sudden he's back in the band. The cynic in me says he's just going to stick this out to bank the cash from an extensive tour where ticket prices are getting into Rolling Stones levels of expensiveness, and then go back to doing music he actually cares about.
