  1. Oh no! Why did this have to turn into yet another I love/I hate Mark King thread. Can't we all just accept that there are two camps and be done with it. How about a fanboy starting a 'I LOVE MARK KING' thread and then those that do can indulge themselves and those that don't can, with a huge amount of self-discipline, ignore it.
  2. Oh my! What a bass. Sorry to hear you have to sell. All the best!
  3. I have one of these basses. They are truly superb. This is a great price for a quality bass. All the best with the sale!
  4. I'm building a precision for my son at the moment. He wants a precision but with a Jazz neck as he's really a jazz player. I got a Mighty Mite neck and am well impressed. The body I got is from a Squier. The neck pocket will need a tiny bit of work to make it fit. However, I would rather have a wee bit of work to have a tight fit than have the neck falling into the pocket.
  5. I have an 83 Fullerton Precision and I can testify to the superb quality of instruments from this era. This Jazz looks fantastic, best of luck with the sale.
  6. It's a shame that this thread is still open. How many people have to have a go, and how often, before enough is enough?
  7. How about cutting the guy a break and leaving his for sale thread alone. He is trying to sell after all. The other thread has plenty scope for amusement.
  8. Bought a drum machine the week before last. I've also bought, sold and traded basses on here. It's the first place to go. Nuff said!
  9. [quote name='Lysdexia' post='1020435' date='Nov 11 2010, 05:34 PM']My usual, decorative stands don't come free. They are also moody, prone to changing their minds at the last minute and require constant attention. That's got sod all to do with this glorious Jazz I'm selling, but thought it might cheer you until the next time I can get all the elements together at one time [/quote] You just had to show my old gretsch didn't you. I'm now a wee bit sad. Wait a minute. What's wrong with me? That photo warms my innermost being. To hell with the gretsch! I can also testify to Jimmy Moon's work. It is always of the very highest standard. Good luck with the sale Andra.
  10. Just bought a drum machine from Golchen (Jon). A nice, friendly straightforward transaction. This is the way it always should be! Thanks Jon.
  11. The natural velvet finish is pretty rare. Although I don't think that it will affect the value greatly. I liked the finish. That nice satin feel was just the ticket!
  12. I would love this bass as I have a 1983 Precision in the same colour combination. Best of luck with the sale!
  13. That's great that the Jazz has gone to a good home. It's just a shame that it wasn't my home! Life is good up in speyside. The air is clear, the lassies are pretty and the whisky is made next door!
  14. [quote name='RAY AGAINST THE MACHINE' post='1010003' date='Nov 2 2010, 08:21 PM']Need to know what music you're into, your fave bass players etc.[/quote] I'm fairly old school. Blues/Soul/Motown/a bit of funk. Players include Jamerson/Babbitt/Jemmott/Pino Palladino/John Paul Jones.
  15. Oh I just remembered - I hope you don't mind me using your fotae for my avatar Andra. Best of luck with the sale, it's a superb bass and would grace any player's collection.
  16. Thanks for the replies. I'll definitely keep an eye out for anything in licklibrary especially if you are involved dood!
  17. We bow in your presence mighty one! Seriously, well done.
  18. I briefly had one of those FMT jazzes. It was a great bass and I really liked it. However, my pro-bass playing son in London also fancied it and it quickly became his main instrument. It is still his main squeeze. Andra is a great guy to deal with so have no worries. I only wish I had money but there again my son may then decide that he needs a backup!
  19. I fancy having a go at one of those DVD instructional courses. Has anybody got any experience of them, and if so, can you give a recommendation? Thanks!
  20. This is maybe a long shot but I wondered if anyone can throw some light on an accessory that Bob Babbitt has on his precision close to the bridge. It looks like some kind of muting device. It can be seen on an ad on page 13 of the October issue of 'Bass Player'.
  21. That's a cracking looking bass. If I wasn't already well served in the precision department I would be really tempted. Have a free bump for a nice bass.
