GW - Great photography!

How long did it take you to find a 'good un'?

Im about to order a Jazz in 3TS/Rosewood from GAK...I have no way/no time to go round looking for the one, so Im going to have to try a few out...hopefully the first one will be good.

That day I spent 4 hours in Guitar Guitar Epsom. These guys really have a huge stock of basses, thanks to their massive store showroom, they carry many brands but they have loads of Fender from USA to Mexicans to Squiers. At the end of the day it was a tough choice between this one I got, and a Sandberg California Hardcore Aged with a mm style pickup in the bridge and a split p in the neck but the price tag on the Sandberg was a turn off for me as I really didn't think it was worth £1450

My latest P, I couldn't resist the call of the sunburst, came with BadassII & USA pick up (I'm told), I've given it a good clean, a tort plate, a set of Fender Flats & a complete setup. It does everything a P-bass should, very nicely

[EdwardHimself]

V. nice bass GW. Then again, i suppose something like a precision would have to be pretty special to please fanned-fret man

Not got a photo of mine, but they are exactly the same colour scheme as these.

cheers guys

It's a 57 with v neck, most punchy and responsive bass ive ever played tbh

Here's a Maya fretless I bought here from Rapscallion earlier this week. I swapped out the tort scrathplate for a black one and gave the whole bass an overhaul today on my day off All it's waiting for now is a wiring kit from KiOgon and it'll be done.

Looking very smoooooooth indeed internals are on the way

[rapscallion]

Looking awesome Jerry

[waynepunkdude]

New one for me

[Lorne]

Ah, well, if it doesn't actually have to be a Fender, then this is the closest I am ever going to get to owning a Precision (Unless I find that Lake Placid Blue ESP I should've bought in '92)

That looks rather splendid Angie.

I'm a very recent convert to flats, can't believed it's taken me since 1973 to try them no point rushing these things.

Very nice, is it a real one, or CS?

[ojplaysbass]

I'm in. it ain't flawless but it's mine. all mine.

I wish I could see it, cause I like "ain't flawless, but mine" basses

Thanks, heavy as a heavy thing as well, turns out it's kinda rare being a neck thru ST bass, they made quite a few bolt ons, but not many thru necks

I took some new pics of the Bacchus P
