    [quote name='Angel' timestamp='1350249176' post='1836431'] I love the look of old beaten up instruments, and I'd really like the idea of getting some kind of slightly knackered Fendery jazz bass... [/quote] I'm sure I saw a Fender Jazz on evil bay that looked, how can I put it, used! Dodgy paint job though. Here you go - fretless though... http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/FENDER-JAZZ-FRETLESS-/120999163182?pt=UK_Musical_Instruments_Guitars_CV&hash=item1c2c1cb52e

    Aaaahhhhh! I feel your pain, this bass looks strangely familiar. Bump for a cracker!

    Purchased some straplocks from me. Excellent to deal with, and very patient with me when I accidentally sent him the wrong set! Hopefully all resolved in the next few days Harry!

    To resurrect a pretty old thread, I've just acquired a mid 70s Antoria Jazz from evilbay and I too am really amazed at the tone that emerges when you plug it in! It's a weighty beast and the body looks to be mahogany or some similar wood (too red to be alder or the like) but has been re-finished black in the past. It's going to be restored to whatever wood was there in the first place. I've got the original bridge and pickups, however both have been upgraded at some point for a Wilkinson bridge and Fender Japan p/ups. The neck is sweet and the binding perfect. Here's a pic as it emerged from the packaging. [attachment=120690:Antoria Jazz 1975 03.jpg]

    I have a set of Schaller straplocks now surplus to requirements. Please note that the buttons came from a bass of mine and are chrome because that matched the other hardware. The strap fittings are black (to match all those black traps out there). So you get the best of both worlds, matching bass hardware and stealthy looking strap when the bass is attached. £10 posted UK. Please let me know if you would like to see a picture. Thanks for looking. SOLD, thanks very much all.

    I've tried a few searches on here regarding this, but so far I've either not found the magic search term or, less likely, there are no threads on the topic so...Has anybody on here tried the two variations back to back, and if so do you notice a real difference?

    Just sold a Vintage V1004 Fretless to Chris. Very easy guy to deal with, plenty of PMs and phonecalls etc. Highly recommended to all BCers.

    [quote name='Machines' timestamp='1349381787' post='1825660'] P.S. what a great review. [/quote] Yeah, it was OK in parts

    Not bidding seriously just watching for curiosity really. It went for £190 in the end.
  17. ead
    tbh I didn't realise they were still in production.

    I've been watching one on evilbay and wondered if these are as good as the reputation of the 80's production that seem to have good press on here and elsewhere?

    For sale is this rather lovely VIntage V1004SPFL bass manufactured in 2009. The bass in very good condition and features through-neck construction with a spalted maple top and mahogany wings. It has a J/MM pickup combination and active 2-band electronics. All hardware is good quality Wilkinson parts in gold and the bass is strung with D'Addario flat wound strings. Here are a couple of pics. Plenty more are available on request. Our very own Machines reviewed one of it's fretted cousins on the forum here: [url="http://basschat.co.uk/topic/9244-vintage-v1004dx/"]http://basschat.co.u...intage-v1004dx/[/url] I'm looking for £225 incl. padded gig bag. Collection is preferred so you can see the bass in detail before buying, however I have a sturdy guitar box so can post by courier at additional cost. Thanks for looking and please PM me if you are interested. [attachment=119867:V1004SPFL 01.jpg] [attachment=119868:V1004SPFL 02.jpg]

    [quote name='Chris Horton' timestamp='1348578227' post='1815422'] Just found this - [url="http://cpc.farnell.com/_/22h-2d-b/knob-black-22mm/dp/SW02904?Ntt=sw02904"]http://cpc.farnell.c...904?Ntt=sw02904[/url] You can get them in 3 different sizes - 16mm, 22mm or 28mm food for thought............ [/quote] These look like they are for a 1/4" shaft, I'm after 6mm sadly. Good looking knobs though (can I say that on a Sunday?)

    I saw the BBG knobs and for smaller orders they are definitely cheaper than the Sadowsky items, but once you get to a certain number the Sadowsky ones are definitely cheaper. I'll have a look at the Farnell items, thanks Chris. Atm it's just you and me though

    Can any of you cognoscenti confirm whether a 'normal' 3-knob control plate has the same dimensions and screw hole locations as the 4-knob control plate? Supplementary question; does the 4-knob control plate have a 5th hole for the jack socket or are they routinely drilled through the body? Cheers

    I have one of the V1004 fretless beasties with a spalted maple top that I think represents excellent value, particularly second hand. Nice to play and pretty well put together too imho. [attachment=119550:Vintage V1004SPFL 01.jpg] [attachment=119552:Vintage V1004SPFL 04.jpg]

    For those who were mentioning fretless versions of the range, I just saw this on evilbay... http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Overwater-Active-Electric-fretless-Bass-Guitar-taken-in-exchange-NEW-condition-/400323104008?pt=UK_Musical_Instruments_Guitars_CV&hash=item5d351dcd08
