  1. Bump! Now with free Dark Chocolate Mars bar :wub:
  2. Trad? Not heard of that.. Who makes it?
  3. Late Sunday bump.
  4. Last reduction. Now £135 delivered, that is less than trade price for a new Action bass! If it doesn't sell at this silly price, I'll donate it to a good cause.
  5. Hi all, I have just bought an MIJ Precision and am not impressed with its output, it seems quite low. I've checked the wiring and it seems ok so I'm going down the route of a new pickup. I'm very impressed with Wizard jazz pickups so I'm going for either a Thumper or the Area 51 stealth bomber. Anyone had experience of either? I do like a lot of bottom end but I also like to be able to lighten it off a bit too. Any comments or advice very welcome
  6. Without pictures it doesn't exist
  7. Check out this guy too. [url="http://www.fareastguitars.co.uk/"]http://www.fareastguitars.co.uk/[/url]
  8. Mine just arrived, an ebay purchase. 1989 dark red with gold fittings and absolutely mint condition. Very well cared for too. Can't believe how light it is after my other fenders. It has black nylon strings fitted and consequently there is no fretwear at all! I can't cope with them so it'll be getting restrung pretty quickly.
  9. I have the same problem! I've just bought a Jap P bass from 1993: this one: [url="http://www.fareastguitars.co.uk/usedpb1.htm"]http://www.fareastguitars.co.uk/usedpb1.htm[/url] It weighs 7.7 lbs! light as a feather after my US models so they are out there if you search a bit. I'm also waiting for a Fender P bass Lyte to arrive that I bought off ebay.
  10. Reduced to £250 for a quick sale.
  11. Yes it was Jules, missing letter u though
  12. Just bought a bass from Mike, another great transaction, no fuss, no bother, great comms etc' Deal with every confidence folks.
  13. Bump....
  14. Really pleased that you like it because I'm almost there saving for one, it just looks outstanding! ^_^

  16. Hi folks, this is my Cort Artisan B4, it is a new bass but it has a small graze on the back, not huge but it is noticeable. I have pictured it and it can't be seen when playing. SPEC' Construction Bolt-on Body Swamp Ash, Mahogany Neck Wenge/maple 5pc, Modern 'C' Shape Neck Width 1F: 40mm/ 24F: 64mm Neck Thickness 1F: 20.5mm, 12F: 22mm Fingerboard Rosewood, 15 3/4" Radius (400mm) Fret 24/ large (2.7mm) Inlay Abalone Dot Tuner Hipshot lic. Scale 34" (864mm) Nut Graphite Black Bridge EB12(4) Pickup Bartolini MK1-4/F & MK-1-4/R Control Bartolini MK-1 EQ/ 1V, 1 blend, 3-band, EQ on-off S/W As you can see it has all the right bits on it and with the swamp ash and monogamy body not too heavy either. I was going to keep it for my main bass but I've managed to buy a Fender Lyte AND a 1993 MIJ Precision with an ash body the weighs just 7.75lbs with a maple board so that ticks all my boxes. Sold with a gigbag as always with me. [b]You can get these on t'internet for around £450, I'd like £250 delivered, which is a bargin! [/b] Thank you for reading.
  17. Don't suppose YOU know how old it is?
  18. Well I hope this does turn out well. I was a Tanglewood specialist dealer until I retired Last year and I still have some of the 'exotic' electro acoustic guitars that I can't sell. Have to say the Canyon was a good bass for the money.... As Chris says, everything is done to a budget.
  19. I use Marvel and have never had a problem. Speak as you find I suppose. I have them on 5 basses now. ^_^

  22. Hi Fede, that sounds lovely! Bump for a great guy to deal with.
  23. What's the best price on these? I was thinking of an investment.... I've seen £879.
