The Burpster Posted February 15, 2008 Share Posted February 15, 2008 Ok here goes, If anyone is interested, I'd like to swap my 1993 MIJ Fender HM 5 string for a Highway one P (any color except the daphne blue). Mine is red, with 3 J passive pups and a 5 way switch and Vol + Tone. Rosewood fretboard (47mm @ nut) and slender D neck. New D'addario chromes. Reason for change? it has 9mm spacing at the nut and I cant get used to it. So I want a '08 5P US std. But I do want a Highway 1 P. The wiring was shonky so I've replaced it new Switchcraft pots and socket, it genuinley has 5 different voices. My guitarist was going to have it but hasnt got space, and said.... "Ive got you, so I dont need my own bass" How sweet.!! Pic added now I've taken some. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OldGit Posted February 16, 2008 Share Posted February 16, 2008 "So I want a '08 5P US std" Talk to Jon Shuker ..... He'll custom make you one to your spec for not a lot more money .. It will take a while of course ... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bassbloke Posted February 18, 2008 Share Posted February 18, 2008 Do you have any photos of this bass? Also, do you have a cash price in mind? £300 I'm particularly interested in whether the control cavity is big enough to take a preamp, such as an Audere 3ZB.

bassbloke Posted February 19, 2008 Share Posted February 19, 2008 Alas, I have nothing to swap. I have a pretty meagre collection of gear compared to some of the people on this forum. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
