    If it's anything like my Jazz copy Retrovibe it'll be feckin' loud

    I'm looking for one quite seriously but I wouldn't buy this on principle, and I suspect not many others would. Good luck with the sale.

    I wouldn't tour with just a Squier bass, especially abroad. I have a 51 reissue P which is an awesome bass but....... Trouble is they're all over £100 so it's a non starter anyway

    And the price is?

    Hmm in defence of guitar shops (I retired from owning one) emails very rarely result in a sale because the punter is trying to find the cheapest price. I couldn't ever compete with the likes of 247.com or GAK so what's the point of finding a price? I always answered emails like that with " Sorry I can't compete with the big shops". It's very timewasting too when you have to ring a supplier to check stock & price to discover that you can't compete and the punter never replies and says thanks anyway. If I've had a busy day (usual) I don't get much chance to read emails. When I did give someone a price they come back and ask you to pricematch with GAK!! Gak often sell stuff cheaper than a small shop can buy it. I always said no to that whether I could or couldn't. Doing that 8-10 times a day for nothing gets very tedious. If I was serving and the phone rang, depending on what I was doing I would excuse myself and answer it quickly. If I was selling a capo or strings I'd ignore the phone until I'd finished, if someone was trying a guitar out answering the phone isn't a problem. I was really hot on service in my shop and I had people coming from all over the UK to buy stuff. I can't stand bad service when I go into a shop, there's no excuse for it.

    Part ex with a MIM Jazz +cash? Must have a maple board though....
  13. tom1946
    Are the pots etc' by CTS? is it a fender body? Will it take a standard jazz neck? thanks.

    To a point I agree with CO5ths, I've had some really good MIM's but the USA Jazz that I still have will knock them all into a cocked hat for quality, superb rolled edges on the neck, total playablilty out of the case. It just reeks of high quality. I've had it for a year or so and the neck never needs adjustment, it has S1 that I only noticed the other day I've had a deluxe MIM too and it was a good bass but not in this league.

    Steven! how are you? hope you had a nice christmas mate. I used to think 2 tone sunburst was dull but as I matured into a man I realised that it's really a very cultured combination for those in the know I'm trying to buy a bongo that's on here.
  21. tom1946

    I used to watch his adverts for a while to pick up any 12 stringers going cheap. Every advert was "Here is another one of my band's 12 strings, selling them off as I don't gig now" I stopped believing him after around 34 or so
