  1. Past hour
  2. Just picked this up, thanks I havent really pushed it to be honest but will give that a try
  3. The guitars I've built myself, bone. The guitars & basses I've bought? Not a clue without looking, and certainly nothing I'd lose sleep over though
  4. And like this 64
  5. Sounds like a fake then
  6. Today
  7. Selling this bass as I originally picked it up as a backup to my main touring 4 string, a white MM with all the same mods. They’re both great basses but I don’t have as much need for a direct duplicate as I used to and it’s too good to be sat around not being played. I had it re sprayed with this smokey black burst which maintains the look of the natural grain. It’s picked up some nicks and scuffs which I’ve pictured. I love the way it looks and sad to let it go. The neck has a beautiful flame to it and it and the fretboard are unblemished. Fitted with a John East MM preamp, hipshot drop tuner and schaller style strap locks, otherwise all original and in great condition. Will ship in UK for £30 or meet in London area. Open to offers and happy to answer any questions. Thanks! James

  8. Stunning bass. I’ve the exact same model and I love it so much. Good luck with the sale!

  10. Yeah, looks like they've stuck a spaghetti-type decal on it, as mentioned by SurroundedByManatees above, which was never used on a Jazz, only P-basses up until the mid-60s transition period. P.s. as far as I know, it was always a waterslide decal on top of the lacquer until they brought in the TV logo at the end of the 60s, after which they nitro lacquered over the top of it, hence why most well-used late 60s-70s fender headstocks have gone brown over time.
  11. Is there a difference?
  12. ...is that the Quick Start Guide Instruction Sheet for the Boss TU-2?.. 🤣
  13. Looks like a P bass decal rather than jazz bass
  14. Good condition MIDI controller in working order with original packaging. One small mark on front edge. Clean Velcro applied to underside. Price includes UK postage. Collection welcome.
  15. They sound beautiful when pushed with a P Bass.
  16. The time it got REAL hot, it was running into an Eden ex112 4ohm cab. I've used that setup before but not had that heat issue. Only difference i can remember were my settings. I had cranked the gain on the amp quite high, something around 3 o'clock i think and the master volume was about halfway. I was running the tidal wave, drive about 3/4, volume maybe just below halfway. I was also using the zoom b1on with a distorion pedal almost always on. Sounded awesome but like i said, the amp did get hot.
  17. That would do it for sure. The amp will be cooler running into an 8Ω load that if it was pushing a 4Ω one.
  18. I have copies of some of the Eminence designs. David Basslite_S2012_cab.pdf
  19. I think it’s worth bearing in mind that if you bought this, and then later decided to move it on, all the questions you’re asking now will get asked by potential buyers. I’d imagine plenty of them would have reservations about the same things we’ve discussed here, so it might not be the easiest bass to sell. If it’s a great player, then you might be ok, but if it’s not (and a warped neck won’t help) then I fear you’d be stuck with a bit of a dog.
  20. Not in my experience playing my 5-string through it. I have a v5 500 combo btw and they have since brought out the 800s. That is plenty enough for the pub gigs I play and more than enough for the occasions where we have full PA and it's just used for on stage monitoring. Places to try a range of amps are very few and far between. You just have to read reviews, listen to demos, ask for advice and ultimately take a bit of a punt. I'm very happy with my Rumble. There are a few BC members using them and they very rarely appear in the classifieds, I guess that says something. But then ask 10 people and you'll get 20 different recommendations 😂
  21. Bass board (half in rack .. pics to follow) Guitar board
  22. What varies is the electronics of these early models. This one has the original Japanese electronics. Is it of worse quality? Hehe, I think the Japanese electronics are just as good as the others. Even much better.
  23. Would love to hear those EAE pedals again Joe & that Fairfield accountant !
