gary mac Posted October 10, 2011 Share Posted October 10, 2011 Yes it looks good. Quality parts too. Be interesting to see if anyone bites. I think most buyers are reluctant to spend out on a bitsa, even when put together as nicely as this one looks to be.

The Bass Doc Posted October 10, 2011 Share Posted October 10, 2011 Yup, it's one I built a while back. I have no connection with the present owner but would suggest one could buy with confidence! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ou7shined Posted October 10, 2011 Share Posted October 10, 2011 (edited) Yep. Looks good and probably sounds sweet too with those Fralins. Although I'm always put off by claims of ultra straight necks, as to get a neck "[i]straight as a die[/i]" takes a lot of effort, especially when strung. I have a specially built jig to achieve this. edit : that's not a slight on your work Howard (just seen your post). I'm more on about the bogus and meaningless claims people add to descriptions.

Muzz Posted October 12, 2011 Share Posted October 12, 2011 This has been round the EBay block fairly recently - I was watching it then. Can't remember what it went for. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spinynorman Posted October 13, 2011 Share Posted October 13, 2011 A while back there was a butterscotch MIJ 51 P that had been modded for jazz pickups. At the time I thought it was an odd thing to do. To me it looks all wrong, but that's just me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tom1946 Posted October 13, 2011 Share Posted October 13, 2011 Looks really good, string spacing a bit uneven though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BottomE Posted October 13, 2011 Share Posted October 13, 2011 Oooh its probably a lovely bass but Jazz PuPs on that body Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shambo Posted October 13, 2011 Share Posted October 13, 2011 Just round the corner from me this. Belongs to a pro player called, unsurprisingly, Marty who usually has some choice instruments in his possession. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daz Posted October 13, 2011 Share Posted October 13, 2011 [quote name='Muzz' timestamp='1318429135' post='1402037'] This has been round the EBay block fairly recently - I was watching it then. Can't remember what it went for. [/quote] Possibly one of those high spec bitsa's that actually sounds like a table leg strung with welding wire.?
