[quote name='davidak' post='970551' date='Sep 28 2010, 01:14 PM']Don't know if it is more due to 70' pickup position or body wood, but that is what I feel. 75 is great instrument, but not for my needs at the moment.[/quote] this is exactly what I would like to know I prefer the look of 75 series over 62, block inlays are cool no matter if on rosewood or maple board, but I would like to settle down a bit with my tone (i have mij 75ri ash/maple). what´s the way?...alder?...pickup spacing?... very nice bass davidak, congrats

can someone compare quality/sound between MIM classic series nad CIJ series?

Chris sold me very nice sounding Vintage VJ96 fretless bass and sent it to Slovakia. Superb seller, pleasure to deal with. Hope to deal with you again Chris:) Stefan

svt vr + 8x10 :wub:

I would prefer 6x10 instead of 2x15 because I like faster loudspeakers and I think that 6x10 and 8x10 can play also those phat tones like 15s, and I dont think that 15s can produce sound of 10s. but if you prefer 2x15 than stay with those 15s. good luck.

my mij jazz

this instruments are great, I do have the same bass as the one I posted before, but in natural...I wish I could buy more of this instruments. There is one non export jazz in classifieds right now with matching black headstock. Pure hell for me, but my girlfriend is going to kill me if i buy new bass instead furtniture for our flat

[quote name='dlloyd' post='852984' date='May 31 2010, 10:19 PM']Was it new or used?[/quote] I think he told me it was used. I see - they sell used, but they don´t sell new.

[quote name='dlloyd' post='852715' date='May 31 2010, 03:47 PM']As far as I know, the following are export CIJ models: Sting Precision Steve Harris Precision Marcus Miller Jazz Aerodyne Jazz (not the one with the pickguard) Geddy Lee Jazz Um... that's all I can think of. Feel free to add some more.[/quote] I´m not very sure with this. a friend of mine bought from ishibashi few months ago this

[quote name='dlloyd' post='852603' date='May 31 2010, 03:01 PM']And it's a non-export model, so they won't sell you it anyway... unless you go and pick it up in person.[/quote] that´s not good how can you find out what bass is non-export? I´ve tried to use translator, but it did´t work very well

those japan instrument are very nice. it´s a bit pity that shipping and taxes make the final price quite big, but i think that this japan fenders play perfect and they look way cooler than US production.

[quote name='howieee' post='840328' date='May 17 2010, 11:50 PM']i tried the ampeg cl and vr heads. they`r both very good. but i found the vr distorts alot later than the cl as the vr doesn't have a control for the pre amp. its just got a master on each channel. i will say however it weighs almost 6 stone! i began to get back pains after about 5 days! brand new they`r stupidly expensive (i got the vr head second hand for just shy of £1100) but boy am i glad that i have it. im currently in the process of making a case for it as i now cant afford to buy a proper flight case![/quote] I know exactly what you are talking about back pain is the dark side, but my god that amp sounds great

awesome looking bass!
