    Done a bit of research and you have opened a whole new world of lunacy for me Richard . Really kind your advice and offer of help, top man

    Excellent Richard, very kind, many thanks for that. As you've got previous for this and you do a great job, you don't happen to have done a kind of build thread have you?

    Half hearted bump. I really would like to buy GILLY's PUMA, but looking unlikely. The other chap who has one of these for sale is including a speakon/speakon lead. I will also include buyer's choice of lead, speakon/speakon or speakon/jack. Thanks for looking.

    Wow, looks great well done. Any "before" pics? Any chance of links to products used (especially on the 'plate)?

    Thanks chaps. These basses are very well thought of by many. Couple of tentative pm's replied. They have been on sale since Jan 2009, although not that many come up second hand. Fender prices have rocketted over the last couple of years. Plenty "new" available at £1275 .

    I can't do anything but speak from experience. I have a fairly recent Chinese Classic Vibe 50's Precision in LPB and even stock spec it's an astonishing bass. Fairly sure this series is also regarded highly by many.

    400 Jazz and 400 Precisions made in 2012. That's really not a lot of these basses for the world. They don't come up very often and it may be a LONG time before Fender do another run. Anybody liking, might be an idea to jump rather than hesitate. We all know with Tom, it'll be a good 'un.

    I've got a decent reputation on here. Having just dealt with Alan, I still have a lot to learn. We did part cash/part ex. He did payment/box up before I'd even managed to sort a box. His packaging was superb, delivery time daft fast. Now, the bass received. A humble 2005 Mex Standard Precision, with upgraded bridge and pick up. Astonishingly well set up and he'd obviously just oiled the board. What a player and what a sound. Simply put, I simply can't recommend Alan enough. Thanks fella.

    Nothing of massive value, but all good playing and sounding workhorse basses .

    Typical lovely Ibby with MAPLE board and one of the elite gear whores on Basschat. What's not to like! Good luck Tom.

    Doesn't a firm do neons in white, green, orange etc?

    Interesting upper frets access.

    Thought this went on Facebook in about 5 seconds flat Dan, or was it another dreamer ?

    Thanks for the review The Daivisch. They looked quite good on paper. Not sure of the GB Contour head, but I know with the Streamliner there is no issue with volume. Only reason I'm looking at moving mine on is I now have a Schroeder cab and Jorg really does endorse EICH (hence looking for a TecAmp PUMA). I was really surprised with the jump in perceived volume when I changed from Barefaced to Schroeder, although had to EQ completely differently for the Schro. Plenty of excellent used heads for sale on here. Is it perhaps worth taking your head into a shop or a bass bash and trying your head with different cabs? Thanks again, cheers, Karl.

    Keep this, sell me the Fender 60th and I'll go stay at my mother's in Mowden (BIG brownie points)

    Jolly poor form boy, I expect high entertainment from your humourous adverts

    Next ?

    Right Tom, pay attention, I shall zay zis only wernce. It's not a Telecaster neck. Part of the evidence is that it says PRECISION on the headstock . As Jono rightly pointed out, it's from a CV 50's Precision. In this case, maple board on maple neck (now discontinued, replaced by White Blond). Folks call these a Telecaster headstock, but it's actually the original early 50's headstock style. This headstock style was brought back into production around '67 with the release of the Telecaster bass. Since then it's been used on all sorts of basses.

    Nice one Rhys, appreciated
