ricksterphil Posted June 18, 2018 Share Posted June 18, 2018 (edited) Just picked up this Bass Collection Pbass off Gungetree It's a real corker and was £90! It's not too heavy, has a slim-ish 40mm neck which I really like and sounds great. An after market loom and a Squier pickup have been fitted An awful lot of bass for the money!

Sibob Posted June 19, 2018 Share Posted June 19, 2018 (edited) Yeah they’re really great for the price! I have a fretless Jive, and it’s excellent! Si Edited June 19, 2018 by Sibob 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ricksterphil Posted June 19, 2018 Author Share Posted June 19, 2018 Nice! I might keep an eye out for a fretless version - always hankered after trying a fretless, just never had the courage! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Si Is that just the regular Jubilee Gold? I've been desperate for a gold jazz and liked the look of the BC Jive, but wasn't sure about how good the gold would look. That's beaut though!

Grahambythesea Posted June 20, 2018 Share Posted June 20, 2018 Wow, what a find for the money. I was looking at one asking £200! Worth putting up with that awful logo. 😱 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Worth putting up with that awful logo. 😱 It's not the best, good job you can't see it when playing! Had a few noodles on it now and having tweaked the action a bit, it's impressed me a lot. If like me you find a jazz neck a bit too thin and a precision a bit too wide (at 42mm), these are just about perfect. Even the missus was impressed - particularly when I told her what it cost. I should have said it was £500 - she then said 'Well why did you have to spend £XXXX on that other one'? .....said while pointing in the direction of my Mike Lull!
