  1. I suspect he probably knows something we dont.
  2. [quote name='Tonci' timestamp='1497701820' post='3320131'] Why is that? [/quote]Because there cheaper, and they have an 18v capacity preamp. Better bridge, more comprehensive eq.
  3. I do like nickels but I find they take away some of the single coil sound/magic.
  4. [quote name='mikel' timestamp='1485376112' post='3223543'] That is no reason not to visit and post on Basschat. You are a bassist at heart, always will be. [/quote]This.
  5. Gotta love that. !! I wish i had the cash from my Sire for this. These 50th's dont come up very often.
  6. I actually prefer these top end MIM 70's jazz basses to the American Vintage AVRi's.
  7. It's the one bass I have no desire to own. Don't like anything about it.
  8. It's a great jazz bass. New Nordstrand single coils. New Hipshot A bridge. New DR Fatbeams on the bass. Sounds fantastic. 9.2 pounds. It' got a chip in the paint where your arm rests. And a ding under the upper horn. We all know about these basses. I can deliver,or meet up with the bass within a reasonable distance.
  9. I forget how old he is now. His playing has always been so very musical. Wonderful bass playing from this guy. When people say, natural talent, this is what i think of. [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YBWglMo5058[/media]
  10. Ahh sorry. me didy missy something. i didnt know they did a 5 string Vintage to be honest.
  11. This is the Jazz I'm interested in. https://www.andertons.co.uk/p/V9ALDER5BRS/electric-basses/sire-marcus-miller-v9-alder-5-string-brown-sunburst
  12. [quote name='timhiggins' timestamp='1496937267' post='3314850'] No its 509 at Andertons for the same model as far as i can tell ,which is a whole 2 pound saving [/quote]Am I missing something.? https://www.andertons.co.uk/p/V7VINSWAMASH5BK/electric-basses/sire-marcus-miller-v7-vintage-swamp-ash-5-string-natural maybe you mean the P Bass.?
  13. There alot more expensive than Thomann. Ash V7 5 at Thomann with free shipping is£511. same bass at Anderton,s is £559.
  14. Are we talking about the guitar or the bass.? I cant think of the last exciting bass solo, on its own without some chords in the solo.
  15. One word. Maruszczyk.
  16. https://www.andertons.co.uk/p/0242400503/electric-basses/fender-modern-player-jazz-bass-v-5-string-satin-2-color-sunburst
  17. possibly the sexiest bass body shape ever.
  18. Impossible to define. because there are biillions of different ears in the world.
  19. There is a reason why i think hes the best bass player alive. Hes not just a bass player, he's a multi instrumentalist. THAT, is what what makes him the best bass player alive today.. imo. Funk on the bottom, and Jazz on the top. [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9Yf1k22-RH0[/media]
  20. Anyone notice it has the proper 70,s pickup spacing.? It's what Japan Fender used to call a non export model.
  21. The LH3 found in the later 5502 is great. I had a 5501 Deluxe. Put in a Glock preamp and a pair of Nordstrand Fat Stacks. Sounded amazing.

    NBD.

    [quote name='BassApprentice' timestamp='1495619483' post='3305287'] Happy days! Didn't realise these were routed so cleanly (i.e. not a big old chunk out the body) so you can remove the scratchplate. If I wasn't tempted before I am now..... [/quote] Well there isnt a route as such, but the front pickup routing is not as snug as the back pickup. Was the same on the 5 string. Just to let you know.
