I have just picked up, courtesy of Freegle or Freecycle as it was, a bit of a dog jazz that has been poorly de-fretted, bits & pieces missing etc. With a bit of TLC it'll be 'workable' I'm sure looks like a RI model, with brass link from bridge to pick up. Thing is, having never heard the name/make before I thought I'd google it, like you do first thing that caught my attention was this gumtree ad: [url="http://www.gumtree.com/p/for-sale/fenix-jazz-bass-by-young-chang--sunburst-tortoise/107799274"]http://www.gumtree.c...toise/107799274[/url] Plese tell me they're not worth £299!

[color=#0000ff]We'll soon fix that for you[/color] I'd really like this song - it should be as uplifting as the video, but why does he have to always try and out-miserable Morrissey all the time?!

It's a bit strange to hear a song about everyday places I know so well, it's not quite like 'New York New York' down here Here's the video, made around the Cafe & seafront - shows a bit of Bexhill life [url="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bH13eUiDhmo"]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bH13eUiDhmo[/url]

[quote name='norvegicusbass' timestamp='1345419294' post='1777402'] I know that one of JPJ's heroes was James Jamerson and I think this is his most Jamersonesque basslines but call me biased as a huge Zep fan but it is better than all of JJ's lines combined.

Where are you? Difficult to tell what's wrong from here if you're near me I'll have a look for you. Cheerz, John

I've been contemplating the fretless TT, looks a lot of bass for the money, 1/2 the price of signature model Fenders like Tony Franklin & Victor Baileys. I emailed Thomman asking about the current stock having the same (Delano) pick ups as shown, but was told "[font="Arial"]Sorry, but this item comes with Sandberg PU´s." [/font] [font="Arial"][url="http://www.thomann.de/de/sandberg_california_jj4_rw_tsbfl_passiv.htm"]http://www.thomann.de/de/sandberg_california_jj4_rw_tsbfl_passiv.htm[/url][/font]

I haven't seen these mentioned before, apologies if I'm behind the times seem OK for the money if they're up to usual quality! [url="http://www.giggear.co.uk/n/squier-telecaster-bass/"]http://www.giggear.co.uk/n/squier-telecaster-bass/[/url]

That looks great Paddy a job very well done I often lust after a Fiesta red P myself @ MrFingers - Cheerz, John

No problems at all, everything I play goes through - Fender Gold Cable to TC polytuner into Little Bastard - 4x8 & 1x12. I have a bench magnifier which runs 2 daylight tubes, that can induce 50Hz hum into anything, 'til I off it! From memory the Jazz is no worse than any other & certainly no extra noise with either pick up solo. The only surprise I got with the '62 Jazz was the stepping on the tone pots, I didn't know they did that! The after market pots I have are just normal, smooth sweep.

I'm very happy with my AV '62 Ri Jazz, no problem with output compared with everything else & plenty of tone variation on both pups. I have stacked pots to fit in my Frank Bello but I've been lazy & not got around to it yet Cheerz, John

He got it so right 1st time! 60 years on & they're still top sellers

Same bass on ebay (not neccessarily THE same one, I don't know) anway £400 starting bid!

You're not wrong Looks good

[quote name='Ou7shined' timestamp='1344469986' post='1765230'] It's all the same air bud, [/quote] You have no idea if the air is the same or not if you haven't tested it, yes it might have started the same but after different compressor, filters, etc. even the pressure may well be more accurate on the machine where you have to pay 20p. [quote name='Ou7shined' timestamp='1344470347' post='1765232'] Absolutely. The reason you spend the extra on a Lindy Fralin is because it sounds different... the sort of different that is difficult to get all the time. [color=#0000FF]You're missing the point, which the OP was making in the first place - if you fit expensive pick ups to a sub standard or faulty wiring loom, how do you expect them to perform properly?[/color] Right again. Your 250k is the same as mine = the air in your tyres is the same as the air in mine. The type of air makes no difference as to how the tyre functions. [/quote] Wrong again. But enough about tyres
