I don't think you should dis the whole of Hastings - for the behaviour of one lunatic bar owner! He probably has a personal problem with one or more of the Soap Girls which got out of hand - but who in their right mind has a bucket of 'blood' ready to throw at an act? I hope they sue him!

[quote name='TheGreek' timestamp='1446809487' post='2902497'] KiOgon, it's virtually on your doorstep... [/quote]I really need to go to spexavers - didn't notice that! Should I have a look at it

It doesn't look too bad - in those days they didn't think anybody would ever need to go beyond the 12th fret

But I can't see Fender in the title? http://www.preloved.co.uk/adverts/show/107887438/vintage-jazz-bass-guitar.html

[quote name='colgraff' timestamp='1445873812' post='2894891'] I reported this guy for attempting to pass off a Vintage Bass as a Vintage Fender Bass which is very different. He is quite devious and probably doesn't actually break the law, but as the asking price is vastly more than the new price, he is definitely pushing his luck.

The price is up to him, with a hard case as well it's no dearer than new by my reckoning!

Thanks JapanAxe Yes I do a stacked V/T for these to retain the single pot hole scratchplate or if you want to drill for another pot, no problem. Cheerz, John

Another perfect transaction with Bryan, great communication & instant payment - deal with confidence. Cheerz, John

If you've decided on LaBellas, I would go for the lightest gauges on a Jazz bass - http://www.labella.com/products/760fx/ or http://www.labella.com/products/ltf-4a/ I find the bigger gauges a bit heavy for a J neck IMO, IME etc. just my 2pworth Or of course you could always go TI JF344's http://www.thomann.de/gb/thomastik_jf344.htm

Taking all of the advice above how did we ever manage when listening to nothing more than a transistor radio from Woolworths, tuned to Luxembourg or Caroline, under the bedclothes, in the dark

Well - they all look proper enough to me! Real old school Nice collection

Howdo from down on the coast - Bexhill

Plugging the body holes & re-drilling is obviously the way to go - if they are done right then they should line up with the neck holes assuming those are standard - but it's a suck it & see really! Good luck

You can get a free 'energy meter' from some suppliers, eg: British gas which will show you how much you are using, so you can actually see the amount in pounds&pence or KWH whatever you programme it in. I've got one, somewhere - it didn't take long for the novelty to wear off but they are good You can go around the house & switch individual items on & off & see exactly what they're costing! Here you go! https://www.britishgas.co.uk/smarter-living/control-energy/smart-meters.html

I'll wait for the plasterer's radio version ( please don't google that!) https://www.google.co.uk/search?q=plasterer%27s+radio&tbm=isch&tbo=u&source=univ&sa=X&ved=0CC0QsARqFQoTCJ7jubGPpsgCFUk3FAod2k0FQA&biw=1680&bih=913

Just smack him someone please at least unplug him
