Agreed, the Neck plate doesn't look right! And I think technically speaking, the case should be white if its an original '63 case Doesn't look like an era accurate refinish, but still, if it was all original 4k would be good money for this (half off for a refin). In fact, sure the neck plate is fake: 80,000s to 90,000s 1963 90,000s up to L10,000s 1963 L10,000s up to L20,000s 1963 There is that dash on the left of the number, but if that was part of an L, it would be too high!

I'm using a Novation Xio Synth to great effect currently! Si

[quote name='discreet' post='858952' date='Jun 6 2010, 03:43 PM']The current mrs discreet claims he used to play a butterscotch Schecter Model-T. Which is a lot cheaper! But no sonic blue, though... [/quote] Isn't that supposedly a bit of a relationship faux-pas? "This is my current girlfriend" But she'd be right in her identification of that Schrecter Si

That '65 in Sonic Blue is ridiculous! Stunning to say the very least!! Not really feeling the PJ one, but if its a player, go for it! Si

Yeah I've been using Doc Pro-Plugs since pretty much when I started playing! Think I'll go for the 15's for sure!. I don't play on loud stages really, and I'm not a drummer! Looking forward to it! Si

Bloody genius!! Try playing stuff like this, it's rediculously hard, as all the parts are written and set in stone!! It goes against everything we consider to be harmonious! I love Trout Mask Replica!! Little trivia for those who didn't know, Beefheart wrote out every instruments part for the album on Piano....every instrument, including drums. He can't play piano. Then he told the guys to learn what he'd written (having had his guitarist notate it). Makes for bizarre parts! Si

Getting fitted for my ER's on Monday, quite excited! I'm undecided between the 15's and 25's. My guitarist has the 15's and when he first got them he reckoned he couldn't hear anything.....but now loves them as he's got used to them. I'm thinking that the 25's might be a bit much. I enjoy gigs most when I have good tone, so don't want to completely isolate myself from the sound. Si

I've never had a pedal board before, but my current originals band requires a few bits and pieces, so thought it easier to put a board together! [url="http://img35.imageshack.us/i/pedalboardt.jpg/"][/url] Pretty basic:just the - Boss ME-50B for bottom boost, delay, chorus and wah, an - Boss OC2 set to no direct signal, for that slightly d'n'b filtered sound - Fx loop pedal to switch out the effects when my little keyboard synth is in use (made by my matey at Focusrite) - Boss AB2 footswitch to go between my bass and my Novation Xio Synth - T-Rex Fuel Tank 'Juicy Lucy' Signal chain is Bass/Synth>AB2>Loop>OC2>ME50B>Loop>AMP I can obviosly kick the loop out, bypass the OC2 & ME50 and go straight to amp. Lovely Si

Are you drunk? lol Cheers buddy! Si

I'm playing at Dingwalls in the Emergenza Band Competition semi-final, if we get through, we'll play at The Forum in Kentish town! If anyone is bored and has a spare £8.....then we'll be playing about 8:30 I believe, although music starts at about 7:30 with about 8 bands playing I think, so get the most for your money, come down early and support live music (but vote for us hehe) . We're live HipHop/Dancey stuff, so its an interesting setup for sure. Here's the myspace and facebook event links www.myspace.com/shallowandthedeep [url="http://www.facebook.com/home.php?#!/event.php?eid=117286768309866&ref=ts"]http://www.facebook.com/home.php?#!/ev...9866&ref=ts[/url] Sweet Si

If I want rosewood + blocks on a Fender Jazz f/board...
Sibob replied to thisnameistaken's topic in Bass Guitars
Yeah, they will be pricey, but everyone is raving about the new Fender quality! My '09 is fantastic But yeah, you could always try one, and if you like the feel of it, just pull out the electronics in favour of a passive setup! Si -

The new US Deluxes?: [url="http://www.fender.com/products/search.php?partno=0194580705"]http://www.fender.com/products/search.php?partno=0194580705[/url] Depends if you want active though, I love passive Fenders, but they don't make great preamps. Si -
Yup thats a Fender Japan Domestic JV (and a very nice one at that!!) The Domestics are pretty rare out of Japan I think, seeing as they were non-export. They were probably the same factory I would have thought! Fair enough that my statement that all JV's = Squier was wrong! But I do believe that all Export JV's were Squier! Si
-
They're just examples of particular guitars with JV serials, not actual specs. Seemingly someone had the same idea as your guy in the ebay listing Si
-
But all the Fender decaled JV's have a small Squier logo on them...... Having said that, this is JV exports we're talking about, if we're talking Domestic JV's, then there's no reason why you'd "add a sanded area to make it look like an early Squier", by all accounts, the domestics were pretty much exactly the same spec as the Squiers: [url="http://www.21frets.com/squier_jv/domesticjv.htm"]http://www.21frets.com/squier_jv/domesticjv.htm[/url] I have an A series Jap Squier Precision which falls vaguely as an '85, but it's an 'SQ' spec. bass. Si
-
It doesn't matter what he thinks it is or isn't! He states it's a JV (pending seeing the neck plate).....so therefore it's a Squier! If it's an early one, which it seems to be, the Squier logo small, Fender logo large. Late '82 that changed to large Squier, small Fender Simple as that, JV = Squier Si

Just wait till it ends....if it doesn't sell, send the seller an offer (of an amount you're happy with), pending playing it obviously......all they can say is no! Si

Massively overpriced for a refin and extra pickup! If you're coming at it from a collectors point of view that is, if you're coming at it from a 'good bass' point of view.....then £7000....really??? lol If you're coming at it from a Dave Pegg fan.....then clearly your a nuttery fan haha! Si
