Was it Find The Escape? Si

Where we at then? Seeing as Alien is in Milton Keynes after me, I might try and get it to him and visit Andy Viccars at the same time Si

Plenty of stock basses are geared for the tuning, Conklin 7 strings, Warwick Dark Lord 4 string (tuned F#, B, E, A) Si

[quote name='Mr. Foxen' post='640459' date='Oct 29 2009, 08:15 PM']Nice colour match around the decal.[/quote] All aged Fenders look like that around the decal. Check out the Custom Shop Time Machine series, they make it look like that too I think it looks nice, still looks like a '68 Si

Mint condition. 1998 custom shop Emerald green finish (flame top & back) Thru neck, mahogany wings/neck Ebony fingerboard w/ abalone cloud inlays Grover machineheads Hardtail bridge Dimarzio pickups Electrics: Master volume, pre-amp volume, tone, 3 way toggle switch, 6 way rotary tone control, pre-amp, coil tap for each pickup, phase switch Complete with original hard case as supplied in 1998 It is also signed, on the rear of the headstock, by Bernie Rico, the now deceased head of BC RICH I work with the guy who's selling it, so if you PM in the day, chances are I can have info for you instantly [b]Sensible offers around £2000[/b] Cheers Si -
Crikey, it's Status exodus month Si -
Cheers dude, good to hear from you! I'm not really in an Ibanez mood, so you're safe haha! Si -
Cheers fede Yeah it's a quality bass, and it's only the fact that it's not a 'real Fender' that it's not listed for more Si

I don't know about James, but I have seen pics of Simon Neil (Biffy frontman) using Squiers before. So even if they're not using the current signatures over their CS's, they've supported the Squier name in the past!. In any case, Signatures Squiers are to get the kids playing, nothing more Si

I have, and use A LOT, a 2003 MIA Jazz (with S1). It's fantastic and the benchmark that all other basses have to live up to.......none have yet, and although I love my 1973 Jazz, that doesn't either (although it may well do after the refret it needs). So although I agree that you probably have to shop around, and I'd probably go second hand as the RRP is a bit steep, I think they're worth a punt! Si
-
Yup, am potentially willing to post at your cost, would have to find a price, but think it would be around £10. There is no neck-dive at all, just strapped it on (and I wear my basses quite high) and no dive. My gf even tried it out just now, she has experience of Thunder birds having bad dive, and thinks this bass is great for balance Pictures can be provided haha Si

PM's sent regarding price innit Si
-
Thanks for the offer man, I've no use for a Compressor though thanks! And I'm not on good terms with anything Brandoni lol Si

Hurrow all I've decided that this could do with moving on, I realise that it's not worth much to anyone but me seeing as it's been a project bass for around 8 years haha. You may remember it from these two threads: [topic="5336"]Main Build[/topic] [topic="60626"]Jazz Pickup addition[/topic] Spec is: Body - Pearl White (has a nice 'sheen' to it). Alder (I think), it's certainly comparable in weight to my Alder bodied US Jazz (could double check for sure somehow) Neck - Maple Allparts Jazz neck with S9 serial Fender decal Tuners - Gotoh standard Fender replacements Bridge - Generic Fender style Pickgurard - Generic 3ply W/B/W Pickups - one Dimazio Model P & one Dimarzio Model J Electronics - CTS mini pots and all well shielded [url="http://img188.imageshack.us/i/15092009612.jpg/"] [URL=http://img142.imageshack.us/i/15092009613.jpg/][/url] [url="http://img134.imageshack.us/i/15092009615.jpg/"][/url] So yeah, it is what it is, a very solid and substantial bass, without being heavy (around 9lbs). A couple of dings on the body which I can photograph closer if necessary, but nothing you would see from a distance. Neck is in mint condition. [b]SOLD[/b] Cheers Si

I think that's the Jazz Deluxe I used to own! Glad you're getting on with it better than I did Great collection! Si

What kind of trades are you looking at Rayman? Si

I still maintain that Andrew Borger is one of my faves, he really plays around with this song whilst keeping the groove! Si

[quote name='steve-soar' post='631353' date='Oct 20 2009, 02:23 PM']Hi Si, well done on the job front. Save your money, you have some wicked basses already.[/quote] You are of course right, I have some lovely basses, three in particular. But there are two that could get replaced by even lovelier ones. My Drop C OLP Stingray and my parts P/J are both currently not Jazz Basses lol, something needs to be done :-P [quote name='GreeneKing' post='631355' date='Oct 20 2009, 02:24 PM']Good news Si. Will you get a trade discount?[/quote] I should think so, although like I said, they don't really carry a lot of stock, so I'm not sure what's available to me....I know they deal with Fender time-to-time Si
-
....in a guitar shop....pretty small one, but it's a wage! Over the last few weeks (while the job has been pending), I've been window-shopping my non-existing pay packets on the following: - Custom Shop Fender Jazz - Status Vintage GP - a lightweight backup amp Fortunately all of this is looking a lot more likely now .............now do I put in the order for the CS!? Si
-
Anyway Does anyone have any pics or info about the line of Jazz & Precision style basses that Status used to do? I'm talking about the line that preceded the current 'Vintage' line! Any ideas? Cool Si

Hahahahaha, was literally just checking this thread again and my Sister pops up on facebook telling me to watch this: Hehe Si

[quote name='Musicman20' post='630590' date='Oct 19 2009, 06:10 PM']My other issue is that if you sell a custom...you never usually get the value back that it should retain.[/quote] Yeah but that's the same with any bass guitar, or instrument in general, that isn't a vintage Fender lol Si
