Our German friend is at it again!!! [url="http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/80s-FENDER-JAZZ-BASS-LEFT-HAND_W0QQitemZ120503509337QQcmdZViewItemQQptZUK_Musical_Instruments_Guitars_CV?hash=item1c0e91a159"]http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/80s-FENDER-JAZZ-BASS...=item1c0e91a159[/url]

[quote name='Duarte' post='680005' date='Dec 10 2009, 10:43 AM']If you like the Stingray 5, consider a Bongo! Seriously, seriously consider one.[/quote] For about a second.. and then get another 'ray5

Very nice, but a 65k starting price, and $275 shipping is extracting the michael a tad.

Sandberg JM5 or PM5.... sound, feel and look great.

Cover the inside of the control cavity with the tapem and maybe the underside if the control plate.

TU-2= :wub:

It'd look better played as a lefty...

If it was a lefty i'd have ripped his arm off....

[quote name='0175westwood29' post='677002' date='Dec 7 2009, 06:56 PM']really is that good or bad? and if it needs moving can a mod please help me out? andy[/quote] Good in a musical sense..... was it self produced?

This may be of interest to you..... [url="http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Left-handed-Bass_W0QQitemZ300373119633QQcmdZViewItemQQptZUK_Musical_Instruments_Guitars_CV?hash=item45efa21291"]http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Left-handed-Bass_W0Q...=item45efa21291[/url]

Does it have 2 speaker outs to run two 8 ohm cabs?

[quote name='Lew-Bass' post='673069' date='Dec 3 2009, 12:37 PM']Considering my budget, would 'pimping' one of these be the best option? What's your opinion on the bass? I know beggars can't be choosers but my two other basses are in the colours that the squire is available in, and I would ideally prefer a change. Still, if it's the best option that wont stop me[/quote] If you've already got the pick up, just changing the bridge to a Badass/Gotoh style and some better quality machine heads will make no end of difference. I've got a gotoh style bridge, sandberg tuners and a seymour duncan quarter pounder in mine. Admittedly, i did rip out the jazz bridge pick-up.

Have a look at the Squier Precision Specials(?). Very jazz-ish neck, and you can upgrade the hardware with the money you've saved. I have one....

[quote name='chris_b' post='672850' date='Dec 3 2009, 09:01 AM']Always try Youtube first! [/quote] Had a look on youtube, but can only find live versions. Only got a laptop and sometimes the bass isn't very clear.

Oh he is.....

Has anyone got a studio version of this, preferably by Albert Lee? I've got to learn it and don't want to buy an album. If you could e-mail it to me, i'll PM my e-mail addy.. Cheers

Anyone built one of the Bogdon cardboard box basses yet.?

Used one live for a year to add a bit of grit to the sound. Not used it as a DI, but it's there if you need it, and the eq is very useful. Worth the money IMO.

Welcome...

I think Clarky will like that.... nice.
