Stingray5 Posted January 21, 2021 Posted January 21, 2021 Andy, it was bugging me that I'd seen the TXJ-4 somewhere else and last night I had a light bulb moment. I completely forgot I'd previously downloaded some pics from a sale I spotted on Ebay a couple or so years ago. As you can see, it's the same model and colour except it's a 5-string. One other thing to note is that the model was listed as a "Tune HAS-5". (Might be part of their Hatsun's endorsee series?). Not sure if this has helped or just confused things further for you. Sorry! 😕😉 Quote

AndyTravis Posted January 21, 2021 Author Posted January 21, 2021 (edited) Just home. And I’m going to clean it up. Smells mildly of cigarettes. As an ex smoker...this is a repugnant stench. Edited January 21, 2021 by AndyTravis 1 Quote
AndyTravis Posted January 21, 2021 Author Posted January 21, 2021 Hmm, I need a buffing wheel. Dirty... Well, it’s been 20 years... And now I’m going to set the bugger up. bit of a klonk on the fingerboard at fret 1. Anyhow, it’s really well put together. 9 Quote

I hope the sound and playability are equally good. Interested in hearing your thoughts Quote

Interested in hearing your thoughts It’s top quality - like the Godlyke I sold to @bassfan (they’re deffo from the same factory - Deviser/Bacchus) playability is great too now the mange is off it... it’s had a life though - for sure. Swirly 🙄 One of the switches may need cleaning out as a bit intermittent. But it’s magic. May tweak the setup as I did it all in haste. 4 Quote

He’s really handy - particularly if you love Japanese gear. Absolutely spot on guy. And it was packed well enough to survive a fall from an aeroplane. Heads up guys - he’s called Denis and he’s absolutely sound. https://reverb.com/shop/denniss-gear-bazaar-167?utm_source=rev-ios-app&utm_medium=ios-share&utm_campaign=shop&utm_content=929219 3 1 Quote
