Anything that is chambered I would have thought! If you have the budget, a chambered Swamp Ash custom of some sort!?, and you can still keep the design traditional! Si

Would you sell your boss octave? Si -
Just a tiny bump for the added part ex ideas: - Boss octave pedal - maybe an Orange Bass Terror with money from me Cheers Si -
£800 on a bass that you'll grow out of in a year or two?.....very odd! Si

Hi all Continuing my little clearout I have my OLP 'Thing'Ray for sale! It's a stock OLP Stingray (albeit with the decal rubbed off) with the following mods: -Bartolini pickup -John East 2-band, 18 Volt preamp, active/passive pull pot on the volume, parallel/series switch -Schaller tuners I'm not sure what wood the body is, it's a good weight, probably 9lbs ish but can double check. I would normally assume it's basswood, but I was under the impression that basswood had very little grain!?, and this has grain in abundance. The body has some bumps and dings in line with a bass that has been heavily gigged, but nothing too serious, the lacquer is pretty thick! The fingerboard could do with a little clean (I'm not really o fey with cleaning maple), it has some flame in it and some tiny flecks of birdseye on the headstock. Nut width is: 42mm String spacing at bridge is approx 18mm (string edge to string edge) Think thats about it! I have a rectangular hardcase that I'll include for £15 I will post, but I would prefer collection so that the potential buyer can look over the bass in person I would also consider a part ex for an octave pedal, preferably a Boss OC2 or OC3......I would MAYBE consider an Orange Bass Terror as well, obviously with money from me....but that depends on another possible purchase in the pipeline.

DO it Dave.......................Do it! Si -
I'll bite..........have you got a weight for it? lol Looks lovely though! Si

Second gig tonight. EQ still flat, no need to touch anything really, again, tiny bit more gain than volume. Used my MIA Jazz bass (which is the best Jazz I've ever played), tone all the way up, bridge pickup all up, neck pickup about 1/2 up I think. Similar to last night, fantastic!!, bearing in mind I'm using this into an 8ohm cab, it's got volume and tone in abundance. I'm not sure what the issue was with the other member here who was complaining of it lacking low end, I find it very full across the frequencies, nothing is lacking IMO. Jack.......I may not give it back lol Si

Still loving this thread, keep up the good work! Si

I have to say, I've never played a Lakland that blew me away! The 44-02D I had was very polite and not very inspiring, the DJ I tried in gallery was boring as well! I think I just don't get them! Si
-
Phew, thought this was going to void the one I've just bought....book that is. But no, way too early for me lol Si p.s. You get my txt about that thumbrest Jim?

So had my first gig with the Terror last night, just an intimate little pub gig, plugged into my Ashdown 4x8. I was using my '85 Japanese Squier Precision, and everything sounded great, I was using the EQ pretty much flat, tiny bit of mid boost, but only just. Had gain a touch higher than the volume for a tiny bit of grind, but nothing 'distorted'. It all sounded fantastic! Another gig with it tonight which I'll use my MIA Jazz for I think, so we'll see how that fairs! Si

You're basing the quality and consistancy of todays Fenders on a bass that is 34years old? It probably just wants a good clean and service, but yes, the mid-late 70's Fenders were inherently heavy! And are you not sure what the brand is? even though you've said Precision. I'm not making sense of some of your post lol Si

[quote name='62P-Bass' post='806375' date='Apr 14 2010, 06:44 PM']I would try the hard sell on Trokey, but think buying his 63 P is going to keep him out of the market for a bit! Andrew[/quote] Ah we can wear him down haha! Have a bump anyway and good luck with the sale! Hopefully will get to see you play sometime soon! Si
-
Looking great! When was the refin done?, Is that genuine aging or reliced!? Just realised who's this is . Has Trokey played this yet Andrew?.....he's on a buying spree haha, get him to sell his '75RI and have this! Si

I'm currently borrowing HappyJack's, three gigs this week, looking forward to it! smile.gif Si

Sibob replied to Delberthot's topic in Amps and Cabs For Sale
What kind of trades are you thinking about for the amp? edit: Just read a list of basses above, anything else you're after? Just wondering I might have my modded OLP Stingray available, pending someone else not wanting it. Bart pickup, East 2 band 18v pre, Schaller tuners Si -
[quote name='Grand Wazoo' post='802853' date='Apr 11 2010, 06:27 PM']nice reivew albeit one has to appreciate that these are personal views biased by your own preference and taste. One man's meat and all that.... p.s.: none of your links work in the first post. Thanks[/quote] That's cos I started this thread quite a while ago, it got revived yesterday I think, so I doubt the stock that I originally tried is on the Gallery website anymore!? Si

Try the 21frets.com forum, tis a Fender Japan specific website with a LOT of info about the early Squiers and subsequent models. The main website is more about JV's and SQ's etc, but on the forum itself, there's a lot of info about Japanese instruments in general Si
