  1. If you had to keep only the one that had the best playability, which one would you keep?
  2. Removed from a Squier 70's Jazz that I bought for some parts. Truss rod seems fine. Complete with tuners. Happy to post for around a tenner anywhere UK Mainland / N.I
  3. It's a no from me. I thought I'd love them on the Ric, but it's just not the sound I'm going for at all. I think they've have about 10 hours of playing or so. I'm going back to something more mellow. £40 delivered anywhere UK mainland? Sounds reasonable?
  4. I've got a spare Squier CV Jazz neck here with tuners attached. Truss rod works fine etc etc. I bought an old Squier for parts and this is left over. Yours for a ton if you want it.
  5. Just imported from the States for my new Fender Jazz Pau Ferro neck. They were supposed to be for 16mm peg holes, but they fit 14mm. I'm not keen on shimming the peg holes or drilling extra holes on the back, so they're up for sale. Unused as per pics. This is the only set for sale in the UK at the moment as far as I can tell. They're lovely and light, but I'm going to have to go with Fender tuners Happy to post to mainland UK. Estimate £5-£6 delivery.
  6. Any thoughts on best method to fill in the white here, and with chip? I'd like it to be the same colour as the surrounding wood. Cheers
  7. So, here's the Squier '77 I've bought to create my Fender 70's build. I haven't received it yet, but I'm a little concerned that the previous relic attempt has gone too far? I wonder if light sanding may be key, but the gouge looks a little deep to me. Maybe best to wait until it's in before worrying too much lol.
  8. Had a Peavey Zephyr. Nice enough to play, but the neck pickup was waaaaaay to close to the neck heel. Gigged it once then sold it on. Looked cool though.
  9. 2008 with 2015 neck. Maybe it is. Does the neck decide the age if it's replaced on an earlier body? Surely the oldest original main component should be the age reference. All supporting original documentation refers to 2008 also.
  10. Here for sale we have my lovely Fender Jazz Bass. It's a 4 string American Standard model, built in 2008. I'm the second owner of this Bass. The lowdown: Body: Olympic White. Very presentable with minor imperfections. Most notable are the scratches on the rear, and a bit of paint chipping where the front strap button is. Other minor blemishes. Original tort pickguard is faded in places. I have a matt black pickguard included in the sale. Schaller strap locks are fitted. Neck: This is a genuine Fender replacement done in 2015. Previous owner was having issues keeping the old one straight, so it was replaced for a brand new, Fender America supplied neck. "A" string lock included as per photos. I had my luthier remove a sharp edge of the nut from the G side, as it was digging into my index finger at the money end. No buzzing evident. Strings: Unknown roundwounds. They came from my Japanese Aerodyne. They work well, sound bright and feel nice. Pickups: Tonerider passive set. Solderless vintage control panel with vintage paper capacitors from Northwest. They sound lovely. No hum. Bridge, control knobs and tuners are all unchanged from factory. Action. I think it could go lower. I think it needs a bit of a setup in all honesty. Accessories: Fender hard flight case, and all case candy is included. The only thing missing is the Fender strap, which disintegrated over the years, so it got binned. I might be interested in a partial trade with a Fender Mex / Japanese sunburst 70s style Jazz bass. It's a great bass, and has served me well at numerous gigs over the years. As I'm in absolutely no rush to sell, I'll hold out for the right offer, otherwise I'll just keep it and continue enjoying it. I've also attached a photo of my details on a post it attached to my Fender amp. I'm not with the bass at the moment, so hopefully this photo reassures in regard to me being a genuine seller. I'm located in the far north Highlands, but I'm happy to courier / take a discussion re delivery to UK mainland addresses. I will not send overseas. If you're local, any inspection is welcomed. Cheers
  11. Very true, but I'd find it strange to recommend and pay for a course that I didn't vibe with. Twice I tried it over the years. Kinda like getting him the same type of car I once had, but didn't like driving it. Lots of options out there thankfully.. Cheers
