Hello from the States(Colonies for my UK cousins)!
ead replied to Riverbassman65's topic in Introductions
Not an area of the USA that I know. Welcome along and do join in! -
Hi folks I acquired this last year looking to fit it to a particular bass (which I then promptly sold). Surplus to requirements now, so save yourself quite a few squids on what is effectively a brand new pickup. As you can see from the pics whilst I have removed the cellophane, I haven't even opened the box. These are £85 and upwards in the UK if you can find any stock. Now sold elsewhere. Thanks for looking.

Thanks fellas. Initially I thought that it was one of the Epiphone Limited Edition Les Paul Special Basses (Pitch Black) but the pickups are different as are the electronics. I didn't realise Gibson had made matt black versions.

Hi folks. Anyone know what bass this guy is playing please?

Just purchased a gigbag from Si. As always a totally stress free experience. Many thnaks.

Just acquired a lovely bass from Chris. It arrived as described and beautifully packed. Great comms too. Chris is a genuine Top Banana, so deal in confidence folks.

Just reduced my burden of ownership by selling lee650 a nice SQ P bass. As always such a top bloke to deal with and had the usual good natter. Watching Lee play almost makes me wonder why I bother

I'm afraid that I have absented myself from social media in general apart from BC (and LinkedIn that I have to be on for work annoyingly). So not sure that I can help much there sadly.

I'm in too. Let us know how/where.

For sale is my 1983/84 Squier SQ Precision Bass Made in Japan. The bass is in very good condition and was acquired last year from a fellow BCer. I records very nicely and it's fair to say that it has not been a case queen! The SQ series were built alongside the JV models and were the MIJ equivalent of US basses of that era rather than vintage reissues. Japanese build quality, nice and light with excellent necks. Usual specs of Alder body, Maple neck and a particularly lovely dark Rosewood fretboard. This one is all original apart from the strap buttons, control knobs and pickup. This has a Fender Original pickup that sounds great paired to a Kiogon loom. I’m afraid that the original electrics are long gone. The neck has been gently sanded by a previous owner to create a less glossy finish and as a result is brilliant to move around on. The neck blemishes have been drop filled and can barely be felt under the hand. It’s a lovely instrument and weighs 4.0kgs by my scales. There are some minor cosmetic dings and marks but nothing structural. It’s a gigging workhorse and great as a main bass or backup. The bass will come with a Gator case and is currently strung with Thomastik-Infeld Jazz Flatwound JF344 strings. Any questions please let me know. Collection or meet up preferred, but postage will be considered (at extra cost obvs.). Here are some pics. What can I say, it's a black bass so tricky to photograph.

Definitely look for a headphone amp, or a pedal with a headhone socket. Maybe check this thread out:

Chris showing us how to break the fretless playing mold.

That's one of those vids that just make me hide my fretless basses and pretend I only play P basses due to my (more apparent now) talent deficit -
Great album with some really well chosen (fretless) bass parts.

Calling @ash who has himself recently had surgery on his hand.

Torn between McCartney and Duran Duran, plumped for the latter in the end.

Just acquired some strings from @green3101. Great transaction, item exactly as described and speedy despatch. Great comms throughout, deal in confidence folks.

Yes thanks, ended up being a full refund and no, not a Pulse II although I was sorely tempted. Still on a Spector theme and, having given up trying to find my original Legend 4 (with the 3-band preamp), I found an NOS Legend Classic in the same lovely Black Cherry finish with Bartolini P/J pickups that is light as a feather so loving that atm.

Just acquired a beautiful gig bag from Gareth. As ever an immaculate transaction, thanks again.

I've never been so insulted in my life In short, I have no idea, sorry. I normally adjust to suit the output so as to avoid clipping, but that's about as scientific as I get.
