  1. Cheers for the bump mate
  2. yeah they're lovely to handle and sound just as a jazz should
  3. This is a beautiful Mex made specimen with a gorgeous gloss finish and unique colouring. It has rolled finger board edges, no sharp frets, very sweet growly and punchy pick ups and a lovely maple figured neck. [b]Very high quality build and in no way comparable with some early edition Mex Fenders you may have played or heard about.[/b] Has a chip on the pickguard from when I took it off - almost like a pressure release some paint popped out from under the screw [attachment=118899:Antig 1.jpg] [attachment=118900:antig2.jpg] [attachment=118901:antig3.jpg] [attachment=122665:Pick guard chip.jpg] Aside from the chip I can't see any marks on it, it's in amazing nick. I'm selling it for what I paid - they average around £550 ish new I can take more photos for those interested. Here is the spec from the Fender website: [color=#666666][font=HelveticaNormal, sans-serif][size=4]Fender’s classic yet seldom-seen Antigua finish returns for this special Jazz Bass model. The distinctively shaded body hue debuted in the late 1960s and was briefly revived with a more graduated greenish tint in 1977, when it first appeared on a Jazz Bass (on both body and pickguard). Antigua-finish Fender instruments have appeared only sporadically since the late 1970s and are rare finds now prized by discerning collectors worldwide. This new special-edition Antigua Jazz Bass is available only in limited quantities and is an authentic evocation of one of Fender’s most historically exclusive finish options.[/size][/font][/color] [b] General[/b] [b]Model Name[/b]: Antigua Jazz Bass® [b]Series[/b]: Factory Special Run [b]Color / Part #[/b]: [list] [*][b]Antigua[/b] 014-0053-350 [/list] [b] Body[/b] [b]Body[/b]: Alder [b]Body Shape[/b]: Jazz Bass® [b]Body Finish[/b]: [list] [*]0140053350 Polyester [/list] [b] Neck[/b] [b]Number of Frets[/b]: 20 [b]Fret Size[/b]: Medium Jumbo [b]Fretboard Radius[/b]: 7.25" (18.41 cm) [b]Fretboard[/b]: Maple [b]Neck Material[/b]: Maple [b]Neck Finish[/b]: Urethane [b]Nut Width[/b]: 1.5" (38.1 mm) [b]Scale Length[/b]: 34" (86.36 cm) [b] Electronics[/b] [b]Pickup Configuration[/b]: S/S [b]Bridge Pickup[/b]: Standard Vintage Alnico Magnet Jazz Bass® Single-Coil Bridge Pickup [b]Neck Pickup[/b]: Standard Vintage Alnico Magnet Jazz Bass® Single-Coil Neck Pickup [b]Controls[/b]: Volume 1.

  5. [quote name='AntLockyer' timestamp='1345920087' post='1783213'] It's when they get released into the wild that things start to happen and the true voice come through. [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BH11YFqMoB0[/media] [/quote] do you name of this track?

  14. [quote name='Happy Jack' timestamp='1345047912' post='1772857'] We've all got so bored with hearing about the Recession that we've stopped noticing the bleedin' obvious. There's MUCH less cash out there than there used to be. It's not just pubs that are going bust and closing, it's all sorts of venues and potential venues. It's not just landlords who are feeling the pinch, so are a lot of people who five years ago would have hired a band for their 40th party or their Silver Wedding but will now settle for a selection of toons played through their daughter's iPad into the house PA. And that's just the demand side. Look at the supply side, where you have a growing number of people prepared to play for very little, or even nowt, and you have to question why people will continue to pay serious money to hire amateur or even semi-pro bands. I'm no happier with the situation than anyone else, but there's no point sticking our heads in the sand ... it's only going to get worse, and for several years yet. [/quote] but very rarely are performers PAID to perform in Edinburgh anyway - they go there on the basis that raise their wages either through financial support for their product (comedy/drama/music etc) through subsidy or privately, or they earn what they make at the box office[b] AFTER [/b]they've paid the hire fee back to the venue from what they've made by the end their three week run. I see the idea of allowing comedians to perform for free as a reaction AGAINST the out of control commercialism of Edinburghwhere veneus charge crazy rental prices, - it's more than likely an 'alternative' venue set up to provide a platform where I'd imagine the comedians are charged nothing by the venues and then what they make goes straight into their pocket.
  15. Alain bought my Yamaha 5 string - nice guy, good comms A pleasure. Chris
  16. aye (this is my new secret method to transgress [color=#ff0000][b]The Mods[/b][/color] 36 hour ruling re. bumpage - I just reply to everyone
  17. I guess Olli there is that thing, as you can observe a lot on BC now, that people wait for the subtle price changes that thse days make the financial plunge somehow more worthwhile -
