  1. Past hour
  2. Last push before it goes to the 'bay.
  3. I'm notn100% but I think so. I'm not sure that do another pj set.
  4. IIRC DJ was going to collaborate with Albey Balgochian to introduce a range of instruments under the "A Bass" brand and they were looking at setting up pre-orders. I registered my interest at the time. The Lakland DJ ceased to be for a while but soon returned when the "A Bass" thing came to nothing. I had a limited edition Lakland "Adam Clayton" DJ in a natural ash with black blocks and ChiSonic pickups for a while. These were Korean-made then shipped to Chicago for QA and set up. It was an absolute lead sled ship's anchor of a bass. I think it was commissioned by Bass Central and there was a small amount of config available like pickup selection and white or black blocks.
  5. It's definitely a Thumb and a nice looking one at that.
  6. One of the newer Classic Vibes. Upgraded pups/loom, bridge and black plate. Not weighed it but I’d say it’s less than 9lb. In pretty good condition, I’ve tried to photograph any damage I can see. The back of the neck is lightly sanded, which improves it in my opinion. It’s a really nice bass in one of my favourite colour schemes but something has cropped up that I’ve got my eye on. Collection from Blackburn Lancs is preferable but buyer can arrange a courier at their expense and I’ll add a beat up Gator case that is functional for shipping and gigging but has some issues.
  7. Darkglass is now the metal sound
  8. Just purchased a TC head of paddy ..excellent bass chatter ..great price and fast delivery.. thanks again mate 🤟
  9. Would love to see photos, but won't be clicking any links. Might be the only one, but when it's so easy to load a photo for everyone to see within the thread it makes the prospect of 'click this link to see...' suspicious and not worth the risk!
  10. Selling this ACG EQ01 preamp, fully working. Comes with East knobs and a new battery clip. John East's page on it - acg-eq-01-filter-pre-amp Cost includes shipping to UK
  11. I've decided to put this Jazz up for sale. It's a great bass but I've decided to look for a real late '70s Jazz. It's a 2017 Fender Japan '70s traditional Jazz Bass in California blue finish. It's an authentic recreation of a late '70s Jazz. The body is ash and the neck is one piece maple with a skunk stripe. It sports full size Japanese Gotoh tuners and the normal Fender bridge. A lot of these Japanese '70s Jazz recreations use '60s spacing for the bridge pickup, but this has the correct '70s spacing and 7.25" vintage radius. This model is not available anymore - the current iteration has a basswood body, smaller tuners and a 9.5" radius A previous owner has customized it somewhat; the white pickup covers and knobs are not original - it would originally have had black ones. I do not have those unfortunately. The body is light swamp ash - the bass weighs 4.2kg/9lbs 4oz. It comes in a fairly lightweight gig bag. The neck is in ideal condition with no marks/dents at all - like new. The body has some dents in it but the paint is all intact. Truss rod works fine, it's currently set up with a very low action with 45-105 Elites Stadiums. I'm in Bristol and you're very welcome to try it out through my amps. Collection preferred - I do not want to post it given the fairly basic gig bag. Happy to drive a reasonable difference for the right buyer however. The only trades I would be interested in would be either a genuine USA '76-82 Jazz, or a 2 band StingRay, with money added from me your way obviously.

  12. I know ESP thought about buying Lakland when Dan Lakin decided to move on. I always wanted a black DJ4. Finally got round to ordering one only to be told Lakland no longer offered that model due to Darryl taking his patent elsewhere. I was quite miffed, but to make up for it I got them to make me a one-off custom USA-made version with ChiSonic pickups ect. It's quite a bass. The Skyline versions are back now, but only in crap colours.
  13. I recently purchased this from a small solo builder. Fantastic build quality and to my ears it's identical to the Darkglass I had. I had no need for a DI like the original, this doesn't have one. So it's just a killer dirt box. It was a kind of impulse purchase for me, as awesome as it is I've really no use for it sadly (I can get similar with what I already have) . I put it on my board but it's had very little use so it's as new. £93 posted. Always happy to hear trades w.h.y(possibly another vintage micro tubes)👍 I forgot to take a pic, but I've put fresh pedal tape on the bottom (I can remove if needed)
  14. Would these fit in a standard Fender jazz do you know? Cheers
  15. Really good basses - GLWTS
  16. really interested in this ill message u
  17. It has two axes each of 3 positions; on my Ric I've got an SD humbucker, so I just have one with in single-coil and one with it humbucker. But there are lots of other options. https://www.freewayswitch.com/
  18. I had the stereo and sold it. Regretted it and bought the mono. It really is the Swiss Army knife of amp world. I’ve got a Markbass Evo 1 to try out at the moment which basically, has the Multiamp amps and effects but has two independent channels, which is exactly what I need. I think it’s what I’ve been looking for, for a long time 😁
  19. Today
  20. Filming a video next week for my YouTube
  21. It's got a nice brushed finish & a word on it. 👍
  22. I wanted to fit these to an FGN jazz bass because I love the 51 P tone. However, I don’t have as much experience of upgrading as I thought, and didn’t realise J pickups come in slightly different sizes. Subsequently, the neck pickup case has some marks and filing around the ears because it’s slightly larger than the cavity on my bass. They also need a bass with a more curved radius - the inner pole pieces are raised slightly.
  23. I had a Skyline Darryl Jones (Korea) and I had a Shoreline Darryl Jones. There was nothing between them, really. I preferred the Korean one as it was lighter and more "played in" but there was no difference in build quality or spec. Both were very good instruments.
