  1. I'd try if I knew what TLA was?😆
  2. Horses for courses I guess. I really like the simple basic look without scratch plate. The big thing for me with the recent FSR is the pickups are so much better than the lackluster ones previous Aerodynes have had. Only opinions borne of my own experience.
  3. Yet another superb ambassador for Basschat, Mark has been an absolute joy to deal with. Great comms, packaging, item even better than described, sent & received very quickly. Fully recommended. Thanks for everything Mark, much appreciated.
  4. Don't know if the link will work, but new band, recorded on iPhone last Saturday, our first gig together. Cobbled together showreel. These FSR models have MUCH better pickups than ANY Aerodyne (or indeed Fender Japan basses) I've had before. My Cal Blue Jazz was lurking behind the back drop, if anything it plays even better than the P. I love them both, fabulous basses for what I need. Try video again
  5. I was guardian of this fabulous bass for a good while. Hmm. Looks like it's gone, someone is going to get very lucky.
  6. Perhaps your predictive text is mixing your Ultimate with Fender's Ultra. Lovely bass.
  7. Thanks for the reply. I have no trade I would have been looking at cash.
  8. Does this include the original Fender branded hard case?
  9. Negative. The P neck dives a little however my inner arm is over the body when playing and this negates most of that slight issue. I'm not keen on the look of the Jazz's tone/vol controls. Positives. Both are quite light, I love the simplistic no scratchplate look especially with colour matching headstock. 12" board radius is great and sets up beautifully, torque adjustable tuners, MOP effect markers, medium jumbo frets (don't like like narrow tall). The BIG thing is the new "vintage voiced" pickups are FAR superior to any on the previous model Aerodynes I have owned/played. These basses sound excellent (to my taste) with no effects & flat EQ. Very impressed with them, great package but I'm not sure the P is long term simply because of nut width. We'll see.
  10. Friday night was St. Patrick's day lunacy with beer spilt on monitors, pedalboards (not mine I don't use pedals of any description) and a bent mic stand which surprisingly failed gto stop a 16 stone punter hitting the deck. Saturday night was Dormans Club (ex British Steel works club) a place I could use the two new girls again, in safety. Suffice it to say Friday night's gig was more rewarding in dancing punters than Saturday nights.
  11. Taiwan. Fabulous basses and I'm not looking again until sold is in the title, my wallet's gone white with fear 😆
  12. John Torres one of the greatest Fender neck guys!
  13. I'm 6' 1" and I still have to get a taxi to the low F on a T'Bird.
  14. Bass Collection Power Bass 2020, made in Korea. 40mm nut, fast shallow neck, super condition, any "dinks" are the light playing tricks. Weight 9lb. Decent gig bag included. Big saving on new. Astonishingly good P type bass with great tonal sweep on the pickup. Since I got it, it's become my main gigging P. The bridge alone appears to be around £140 https://www.basscentre.com/bass-collection-power-bass.html REASON FOR SALE, I'm going to commission a white one, with maple board, mirror 'plate & Babicz. No trades thanks. £350 collected from Darlington. £380 couriered mainland UK. If you are interested please be decisive, cos I ain't on this one. It's a great bass and I'm not sure I'm doing the right thing. Feedback available, thanks for looking.
  15. The perfect Precision imo. If it's still around when my Rick is sold....................... GLWTS David.
  16. 9lb 2oz. As you'll know David, they are Maple & Maple doesn't do light (ask Steve Harris 😁).
  17. £1700, price is pre-haggled for buyer's convenience (they are £2.5k new now, if you can find one). This is the model without the sharp edged wrist slashing binding. 2 little dints, slightly sticky pick up selector switch, all reflected in price. Has the treble bezel pickup surround with thumbrest to make it easier for finger style. TRADE, I may take a Fender Elite/Ultra (Jazz or P), plus £250. Excuse photos, I can never get 'bursts even close. I might courier if buyer sorts it, I may meet halfway. No need to sell, just rarely use it. Thanks for looking.
  18. As always a pleasure to deal with this Basschat legend. Lozz is simply a great bloke who makes any sort of transaction simple. Hugely recommended. Thanks again mate.
  19. Always a pleasure dealing with Brian, we are serial offenders 😆. Great comms, instant payment, decisive, simply A+++++ Thanks again Brian, until the next time 😁
