Any idea what year this bass might be? Best way to check?

[quote name='Twincam' timestamp='1467301025' post='3082678'] My whole setup isn't the best ive ever had but actually tone wise ive never been happier. Its fairly simple. Warm and well rounded without being to dark or muddy. And the best thing is if something went wrong or it for stolen it wouldn't be a disaster. So I'm worry free!

Should get that yellow jazz build with the lakland neck thats for sale on here, it's a stunner!

3 now. Would be about 12947 if I had the money/permission though

[quote name='Bassassin' timestamp='1467283532' post='3082472'] Good opportunity to point out once again that my £60 pawn shop MIJ Jazz copy is the nicest bass I've ever played: [url="http://s1276.photobucket.com/user/LanterneRouge/media/CSL%20Jazz/CSLresize1_zpskufavwxd.jpg.html"][/url] If I was ever in the position to spend silly money on a custom bass, most of it would be a replica of this thing!

Get a Tokai Hard Puncher

[quote name='Japhet' timestamp='1467194182' post='3081758'] Mine has quickly become my 'go to' bass. I put a set of La Bella flats on it and a set of Custom Shop 62 pickups in it and it sounds lush now. [/quote] I don't know if I'll be changing the pups on mine. I like them just now but no doubt I'll end up wanting a change

[quote name='Paul S' timestamp='1467045290' post='3080752'] That is beautiful. Also my fave colours - BBM. Out of curiosity, how much does your Hard Puncher weigh - and what is the width of the neck at the nut? [/quote] 4.2cm width and 9.4lbs (bathroom scales)

[quote name='ColinB' timestamp='1467047338' post='3080776'] That's a beut! [/quote] Thanks

I'll try get it weighed/measured tonight if I get the chance it does feel light but I'm used to playing my 5 string behemoth

[quote name='discreet' timestamp='1466891650' post='3079635'] Bwa-ha-haaah!! Enjoy the feeling, it won't last. I'm pleased with my current Markbass amp, but have a sneaking suspicion something else may be getting pushed through my letterbox. And I don't mean the postman's cock, like last Thursday. [/quote]

[quote name='deanovw' timestamp='1467031065' post='3080584'] That one is a Fender. [/quote] That is a stunner!

Just managed to play the bass now. The strings need changing but even then the sustain is brilliant! The first precision bass I've played that's easy to play. I've played a few and the neck were too chunky but this is lovely. The output is pretty high too from the pickup. Happy chappy!
