  1. Thats good news. Can you show us where you buy a set of secondhand fender jazz pickups for £15 please? 😀
  2. The neck pup looks original, the bridge is definitely a cheap ceramic pup (i.e not original).
  3. I would agree to cash as well. Except with the pandemic - that really isn't an option!
  4. Pickups from my newly acquired Fender Vintera 50s Precision. Not needed, so ups for grabs. £40 posted.
  5. Set of 4 inline chrome Schaller machine heads, excellent condition, comes with bushings and screws. £48 posted.
  6. An active bass you need to add a small battery in order for the bass to make a sound through an amp. A passive bass (like yours) you just plug into an amp (no battery) and it plays.
  7. Something of note with the Vintage MM's is that if it has three knobs it's passive, if it has four knobs it's active. The OPs is passive. 👍
  8. Save yourself a load of money and get a Vintage v90 reissued bass, superb for jazz and funk.
  9. The bass is a "Vintage" brand from the 90s. The Vintage brand is a subsidiary of Encore, same brand, made in same factories, just different logo on the headstock, so quality-wise is identical to an old Encore. I had an old Encore which had the same style serial number at the bottom of the neck, like yours.
  10. Helped out by a very kind BCer. 😀
  11. Does anyone know where I can purchase a set of four cheap tuner bushings, like those used on any precision or jazz copy?
  12. SX basses are well made, generally the electrics and pickups let them down a little. They are basically the same quality and value as the older "Vintage" brand, not the "Vintage reissue" one's.
  13. Depending on wear and tear, between 10-30%.
  14. I'd request detailed pics, and decide how much discount is reasonable, and demand it. Alternatively, you'll have to wait to they get new stock. Or, cancel order and buy elsewhere.
  15. Brand new Thomastik Infield JF344 long scale flatwound strings. 43-100 guage. £38 posted.
  16. I don't know, the strings are brand new. I'm pretty sure they are lower tension then your fender flats.
  17. People will need to bring an empty bottle or three, I wouldn't want to use a port-a-loo, not to mention hand sanitizer. 🤤
  18. Hi Tony, you may want to post your question here... https://www.basschat.co.uk/forum/12-repairs-and-technical/
