  1. Thank you gentlemen. Much appreciated.
  2. My 2006 AVRI Precision is buzzing or perhaps humming would be a better description. When I touch the strings or one of the knobs the humming stops. However, when I touch a pole piece the humming gets louder. Any advice good people?
  3. The need for the change to the new software is perfectly understandable. It will just take a wee while for it all to calm down and for everyone to be familiar with all the features of the site. People, by nature, don’t like change but it is one of the most inevitable things in life. Well done to all those who spent many, many hours to make the changeover. Everything will be fine!
  4. [quote name='yorks5stringer' timestamp='1510132653' post='3404121'] Maybe I take out a side ad with Google: 'Hot Russian Babe wants to buy your pickup'? That should get his attention... [/quote]
  5. Thank goodness for that. Someone is getting a cracking bass!
  6. I wonder how 2008 - 2016 compares to the new American Professional Series. Anyone?
  7. What pickup would give me the closest to old school/Motown?
  8. Got a couple of questions: What is the difference between a Jake and a Jake L? Is it correct to assume a 34" scale unless otherwise stated? Thanks.
  9. I really fail to understand why this is still here at this price. When late 70s precisions go for what they do it makes no sense that this bass is still here. 82 - 85 basses are marvellous. They were built alongside the first reissues which command high prices. Quality had returned to Fender. These basses are superb and, I am sure, will be highly sought after as people realise this was a great period for bass building at the Fullerton factory. No more massively heavy late 70s building. Please someone buy it and put me out of my misery.

  11. [quote name='Lightlyseared' timestamp='1508600135' post='3393233'] An 80s L2000 has the three bolt micro tilt neck joint, a new one will have a six bolt neck. Most 80s models will have a metal control plate and black powder coated bridge. Necks vary considerably as customers buying direct can specify the profile and nut width. I've played a huge, deep '81 with a 45mm nut and others that were jazz-like. G&L have limited edition "Custom Creations" which are essentially limited run models. All G&L USA direct orders are in a sense custom shop instruments as the buyer chooses their spec from the available options. [/quote] Many thanks. What a great reply!
  12. I have a question for G&L fans. How does a mid to late 80s L2000 compare to the 2017 offering from G&L? Also, do G&L have a custom shop as I have seen an L2000 on eBay being described as a custom shop instrument?
  13. Since photobucket went tits up I thought I'd post up another pic thanks to imgbb! [url=https://ibb.co/c775D6][/url]
  14. There are excellent instructions on the forum as to how to post pics. I'm afraid you stand very little chance of making a sale unless you either post pics or post a link to pics. Please regard this as friendly advice and not a criticism. Good luck with selling your bass.
  15. The picture isn't even a bass guitar.
  16. If a well meaning friend or relative increases your budget for your birthday you might consider a pre-owned Mesa Boogie Walkabout Scout. Huge sound for a 1x12 300 watt combo.
  17. Lulu is a very talented singer. I just wish that she wouldn't put on an accent when she speaks. Be proud of your roots and where you come from.
  18. Bass now sold pending payment. Thanks for all the enquiries.
  19. [quote name='Spoombung' timestamp='1506764710' post='3380941'] Superb basses [/quote] You're not wrong. They are indeed very nice basses.
