parker_muse Posted February 24, 2011 Posted February 24, 2011 (edited) Hey guys, Bought this from The Bass Gallery in Camden on the 14th of Feb. I've used it for one rehearsal and one gig, so as you'd expect its in minty fresh condition. You know the score on these, PJ set up, stack knobs, gorgeous looks. I really like the PJ tone but i can't get on with the neck... It's a bit 'precisiony'. Was professionally set up in the gallery and has a lovely low smooth action. When i tried it in the shop to tone pot on the P pup was crackly so they took it apart, had a fiddle, and its as smooth as a baby's bum now. Hit me up with trades! EDIT: Interested in a pedal capable of a valvey grind + cash my way or straight sale. Still has the plastic on the pickguard! No pics as of yet as the bass is in cheltenham and i'm in birmingham.

LemonCello Posted February 24, 2011 Posted February 24, 2011 How about a trade for my mint Squier VMJ, all original with the exception of some Schaller strap locks with some bunce your way. I've found out lately that I'm a Precision man! LC
parker_muse Posted February 25, 2011 Author Posted February 25, 2011 Very interested. Would you be able to get over to birmingham/cheltenham? Tom
LemonCello Posted February 25, 2011 Posted February 25, 2011 I am in Cardiff on the weekends and in Peterborough during the week. I could meet you near either Brum or Cheltenham depending on where you are. Let me know and I'll keep the Squier with me at all times. Cheers, Gary
parker_muse Posted February 25, 2011 Author Posted February 25, 2011 Okay, i'll have a think about it.
parker_muse Posted March 3, 2011 Author Posted March 3, 2011 Crap i forgot i didn't have any pics up. I'll do some now Tom. Its nice and light too...
parker_muse Posted March 7, 2011 Author Posted March 7, 2011 There are no marks or dings on this... it's just very very reflective!!!
Jono Bolton Posted March 8, 2011 Posted March 8, 2011 Is the back of the neck finished in black as well?
parker_muse Posted March 8, 2011 Author Posted March 8, 2011 Nay, just beautiful maple with a lovely rosewood skunk stripe.
dannybuoy Posted March 11, 2011 Posted March 11, 2011 You say the neck is too precisiony? I thought it was a bit too jazzy! I'd love one but don't get on with really skinny necks I'm afraid.
neepheid Posted March 11, 2011 Posted March 11, 2011 +1, official specs say it's Jazz width (38mm) at the nut. Is it really chunky front to back or something?
