Thomman tweed case in good nick few marks from age £30 collection Clitheroe or North meet up within reason post UK £15 -
sorry no scales but feels same as my jazz which is 9lbs -
UPDATE No it's not - it's hardened over the weekend and isnt suitable now!
-
Yes the bass gods stepped in and all fares well!
-
Just done first gig with it. Yep love it!
-
Yes used to do that but with this i have torn the fabric more toward D and G and then hidden under ashtray - means on all the time but suits my sound for what i do 🙂
-
wouldnt say exactly clean but has a short decay to length of the note which is what i want in muting but still some clarity
-
Not whole sponge just about an inch off it
-
After parts cut for standard MIA jazz. £2 postage on top -
Not the whole sponge just a 3/4inch strip approximately
-
I vote TI Flats or La Bella LTF

Bought this today and stuck under the strings on my jazz then cut into it where strings indented it. Then I slightly pulled it apart ahd kept doing so until the tension on the strings became light and it sounds great. less mutey than a Nordy and hidden under my ashtray - gigging it Friday PVA sponge - mailable and smells like Playdoh £2.90!

Thanks Michelle I have bought an American Original from a person in here. It’s great too

Update my guitar tech pal sanded the nitro of the neck and oiled it for me and it’s now perfect 👌 I would’ve done it but I wanted it to be a proper job. This thing is alive
-
Think the LPB precision is a fine looking thing indeed
-
I got an extra wide strap and it was fine for a 3.5 hour rehearsal- thought May get some gotoh lollipop ones one day
-
Just back and Mon dieu it was superb - going through ash down Evo 2 the old one with 8x10 - had to turn it down to quarter volume and a touch of gain. It’s a keeper! GET ONE!

Bought this from fellow BCer Fender Am Original Jazz in CAR I decided against the self build project for now and fell in love with this lovely thing and with la bellas on but switched out for TI flats and sanded down the gloss on the neck a tad and bingo - blimey what a great sounding bass this is. Articulate, warm yet punchy, bottom end full as a man who has seen a 3 for 1 in a pie shop and bought 6 pies for lunch! the neck is quite chunky - not a baseball bat but something to get used to and it’s quite heavy - would lightweight tuners make that much difference? It’s alright on a strap - I love the neck - gonna stick with it rehearsals tonight can’t wait 😛

Anyone got a 4 string bass mute contraption by Ellio Martina? Tried the website and filled in the form twice now and seems to have stopped making them. Prefer 19mm I specifically need a mute I can engage and disengage that allows me to play towards the neck. Can’t do this when palm muting and Nirdy mute is bit too mutey ta

It wasn’t the Roadworn aspect I especially interested in but the nitro vintage pickups and rosewood neck. So got a Fender American Original jazz on the way 🤠
-

“King of the budget jazz bass” Low End Lobster calls these and good reason. Firstly, the neck is like glass, smooth no edges, 9.5 radius so super fast to get around. Secondly, the new designed pickups are killer and the overall build is astounding for the money. Easily better than Squier CV and mid price MIM Fenders I have wire woolled the body to take down the sheen of the coating giving it a more vintage look Only selling this as have got nice 60s AO Fender jazz on the way - though if it doesn’t sell happy to keep as back up. Save yourself some money on the shop price. Still have box so can ship to UK for £20 on top or meet north west Pics of wire wool job to take sheen off below - mark on 3rd pic already on body when bought - i didnt bother me - sawe it as an identifying mark

I met him person and in face value I believed him, he was super apologetic but now with the “road worn” service he can offer, he was lying to my face. And I have a high BS detector- he says he bought it from a shop in 2009 and it’s not been played. But I asked him when was the neck last oiled, he claimed 2 weeks ago, which was plainly untrue as neck was very dry. He said the shop he bought from was closed and he was going to ask Fender- which raised an eyebrow 🤨 but by putting that ad back - shows him to be a scammer
