  1. [quote name='tommorichards' post='1249846' date='May 30 2011, 01:20 AM']Am i missing something? £750 for a squier?[/quote] It's a '83/'84 Japanese made Fender which at the time blew the socks of anything that was coming out of America. The build quality was flawless (unlike a lot of US stuff at the time). These JV series basses are highly regarded and sort after and command a decent price. I've owned a couple of SQ Precisions and they were excellent in every way.
  2. I've held off listing this on ebay as there has been some interest here but all has gone quiet. Last bump and then its ebay time.
  3. Ebay looming BUMP!
  4. And back up for sale
  5. [quote name='Oldman' post='1242227' date='May 23 2011, 09:01 PM']Please, this bass is not cheap..........it's inexpensive..........its also superb.........fretless it would be mine.................good luck[/quote] Cheers. Let me just find my pliers! [quote name='Randy_Marsh' post='1242298' date='May 23 2011, 09:37 PM'] Crikey Paul! That is a beaut. Good job you have another one as backup [/quote] I wish I could have a few more and a certain fretless would be nice but with one thing and another I'm a little over stretched. Along with my '73 Precision this will be one bass I'll regret selling.
  6. [quote name='warwickhunt' post='1242054' date='May 23 2011, 07:09 PM']I have my 1990 with the predominantly Maple neck up for sale and there's no way I'd let it go as cheap as this![/quote] I know, but desperate times mate! I'm gunning for a quick BassChat sale but failing that it'll go on ebay for a fair bit more.
  7. Pics or no pics this is a great amp at a bargain price! I've been completely amp GAS free after buying mine.
  8. Wow! I've never owned a Genz amp but I did have the 6x10 cab and it was outstanding, but big! Used it with my F1 which looked lost sitting on top.
  9. Out of all the basses I've owned, gigged and parted with its the precisions I miss the most. I love my Warwicks but there will always be room for a P-bass. Its nothing to do with image, I'm too old and smelly to be bothered about all that stuff. But the Precision just has that tone that on occasions has made me turn around and smile at my cabs with that noise coming out of them.
  10. [quote name='Doctor J' post='1229696' date='May 13 2011, 09:57 AM']and is now away getting a much needed refret.[/quote] Very nice and what lovely flame. Are you replacing the frets with the Warwick brass jobbies?
  11. [quote name='mikhay77' post='1229300' date='May 12 2011, 08:51 PM']Keep forgetting to put up me Wick.lol.A very rare Warwick Streamette in mint condition!Mirrored active Ps,curved body ala thumb,Birds eye maple plus numerous other woods tboot,really nice player and kickin sound,[/quote] Now thats porn!
  12. [quote name='wilko_66' post='1228080' date='May 11 2011, 09:27 PM']still here! Who wants it?[/quote] ME! I'd love another one but bank says no. Folk'll trip over themselves to snap up Fenders for this kind of money but ignore rare opportunities to get basses like this. Very strange.
  13. Looking at the completed listings there are some 'good' prices depending on your point of view. It dose seem an unpredictable market.
  14. Guess what bass I'd prefer!
  15. I'm really quite envious as its something I'd love to do. What makes it worse is that I'm in a darn good band which dose gig a fair bit but only around the same old local venues. I've almost given up trying to motivate them.
  16. [quote name='Ou7shined' post='1216354' date='May 1 2011, 09:35 AM']Sheesh. The gall of some folk eh.[/quote] Can a seller demand that you cover the fees?
  17. Linky! [url="http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/HARTKE-HX-410-HYDRIVE-CAB-/110681310198?pt=UK_MusicalInstr_Amplifiers_RL&hash=item19c51ec3f6"]http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/HARTKE-HX-410-HYDRIV...=item19c51ec3f6[/url]
  18. Its suddenly changed to a fancy black 5 stringer. Looks very nice too but still expensive.
  19. Didn't the '76s have plastic knobs?
  20. Stroof! I wish I hung onto my pre Ernie!
  21. I have seen Precisions from this era in this state before. I owned a '78 (IIRC) in a lot better condition which I sold for about the same price to somebody here a couple of years ago. Also the case is worth a few quid too. Sellers reputation aside, I'd put my neck out and say that its not been reliced. If so £800 is a wee bit of a bargain, maybe?
  22. For the money you're looking to spend you'll be getting good gear. Let your ears decide so try as much as possible. The stuff in my signature is there after years of trying out different gear. I've owned more amp/cab combinations that I care to mention but I believe what I've got now is the best for me. Although you may think it stinks!
  23. I've just had a very strange look from my house mate whilst playing along to that! Like that bass.
