[b]Bartolini Original Series P/J pickup set[/b] For sale is this set of Bartolini P/J pickups that I bought on here for a project that never happened. They have some light scuffing on the casings roughly where the string pass over them but are fully serviceable. The split coil Precision type pickup is an 8S. The single coil Jazz type bridge pickup is a 9J-L1, this is the noiseless humbucking version. Here is the link to the Bartolini website with specs etc.: [url="https://www.bartolini.net/product/p-j-bass-original-series/"]https://www.bartolin...riginal-series/[/url] The P pickup 17cm of cable to work with whilst the J pickup has 18.5cm of cable to use, so plenty for pretty much any bass I can think of. [b]NOW SOLD THANKS[/b].

Just sold some strings to Adam. Paid really promptly and a real pleasure to deal with. Highly recommended BCer.

Protoje also worth a listen.

For sale are some very lightly used black D'Addario tapewound strings. They were originally a 4-string set and then I bought a B string which I promptly never used and which remains unopened in its packet. All the strings measure 37" from ball end to the start of the silk at the neck end. Overall string lengths and gauges as follows: B 135 brand new unopened E 105 43" A 85 44" D 65 45" G 50 43" A 5-string set is around £55 new so these are a [b]bargain at £35 posted to the mainland UK.[/b] Thanks for looking and happy to answer any questions.

34" V Jazz Style Basses with 24 frets (or at least 22) Help
ead replied to knoxy26's topic in Bass Guitars
I believe Sandberg TTs have 22 frets (my Cali II does but can't vouch for the whole range). I think the Electra is very good value and well built if you can find one. -
[quote name='eude' timestamp='1462784088' post='3045570'] I'm not sure using me to model the bass is a good idea, you might put folks off Eude [/quote] Is it true that you're 6' 10" and a former linebacker for the Pittsburgh Steelers? -
Just acquired a gig bag from Nige; totally solid citizen as has been said many times. Thanks very much.

Can't believe this is still here. If only I could buy some talent to go with it -
^ indeed

[quote name='Geek99' timestamp='1465543909' post='3069074'] Probably quite a lot, I would say. I would seriously doubt that the Fender branded ones are hand made by seasoned professional plastic carvers deep in the Appalachian Mountains before being wafted over Leo's signature to acquire magic. [/quote] Is that the northern Appalachian mountains or the southern Appalachians? I wouldn't touch those southern ones with a barge pole.

I listened to it three times on the trot last night (I know, I know, I should get out more) but it is magnificent. -
I look after my gear too. My AGCs can be seen in the pubs and clubs where we routinely play. OK they're neither Foderas nor Sadowskys but I couldn't justify the price for one of those seriously high end instruments. I also have one cheaper bass that I will take to the one or two venue that are a bit 'lively'.
-
Apologies if this has been seen before but a friend told me about this and after having a listen tonight I thought I should share it just in case it has been overlooked somehow. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d_Va3e_52TE

A bit late in the day I know, but I have an ACG SEQ in a J Type bass. It has a volume/blend stack and a single filter knob for each pickup, kind of like two really good tone controls with what sounds like a broader sweep than the passive setup. There are some trimpots you can tweak inside but I've never felt the need other than to turn the peak overshoot gain right down.
-
On the active bass is there any kind of trim pot in the circuitry that you can use to set the output level?

[quote name='sblueplanet' timestamp='1464729479' post='3062017'] I believe Scott uses these himself on tour and in the studio. Must say something as to the quality. [/quote] This is true, he is currently using them with Big Country. -
I've played a few of these and they are great basses.
