  1. Cool bass Peter, very cool indeed.
  2. [b]TRADED[/b]
  3. Not the duvet though, you can get your own.
  4. There's been a few questions about exactly what's on offer..... [IMG]http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v313/russjm/2012-12-28124001_zpsb3ec0229.jpg[/IMG] Everything in the picture is what you get!
  5. I was looking for around £700
  6. No mate. It's a Standard USA Jazz, but the previous owner put stacked knobs onto it for the '62 look. The original controls are included with the bass, should the new owner want it back as stock.
  7. TRADED I'm a Precision man....so I want another one....... I'm looking for a USA Fender Precision in a trade please, for this lovely Jazz, complete with it's original controls, ashtrays, and SKB Hard case. This review is worth a read too, these basses are crackers: [url="http://www.bassguitarmagazine.com/component/content/article/37-bassguitars/209-fender-2008-american-standard-jazz-bass-issue-35.html"]http://www.bassguita...s-issue-35.html[/url]
  8. This thread is a year and a half old mate. Please send a private message to the seller.
  9. [quote name='Cosmo Valdemar' timestamp='1356556771' post='1911216'] My dear Mum and Dad got me a Hofner Violin bass - gobsmacked to say the least. Always wanted one in tribute to Macca but could never really justify it to myself, not being able to imagine hen I'd put it to use. Well, it's a wonderful little bass, and it goes 'plonk'! Good old Dad (the mastermind of the operation) got a hardcase, 'proper' Hofner flats and authentic Hofner knobs to replave the bog standard black ones that come as stock. I'm genuinelly chuffed. The Mrs got me the Goblin box set (prog bass overload) and the Led Zep Celebration Day Blu-Ray (very little bass sadly). [/quote] What an awesome family you have, top notch pressies.
  10. Same age as me (no I'm not Kirkys wife), nice.

    SOLD

    Come on someone buy this for crying out loud.
  12. [quote name='Doddy' timestamp='1356359828' post='1909483'] Out of his studio albums 'The Space in Between' is my favourite. 'Mystery to Me' is cool,and 'It Only Happens Once' is more electronic/experimental. For live albums I'd get 'Live at the 55 Bar',which was his only live album released on CD. [/quote] and my favourite track is 'Mana' from the 55 bar. I'm a big fan of Janek, and jazz generally. To me it's just music. I don't give a bollocks what people want to call it in terms of a genre, to me it's just music. I'm a rock player, but to me all good music is fabulous, whatever you want to call it. Go and sample some of Janeks' music. Open your ears and enjoy, and don't let anyone unload their blinkered opinions onto you, just make your own mind up.
  13. Mother in laws' xmas party for me and I was driving..... Not had a drop of anything for days. Tonight's the night though.....in fact, I think I'll start now.

    SOLD

    FYI .....My trade offer still stands.
  15. I don't like a low action. I clank the strings like a horse galloping on tarmac, so my basses are normally 3-4mm at the 12th. I like a bit of daylight between the string and the fretboard.
  16. Withdrawn
  17. It'd look lovely in your collection it really would.
  18. Oh, and the ashtrays come with it too.
  19. Up for sale here is my 2008 Fender Jazz........ [url="http://www.bassguitarmagazine.com/component/content/article/37-bassguitars/209-fender-2008-american-standard-jazz-bass-issue-35.html"]http://www.bassguita...s-issue-35.html[/url] Fabulous Jazz, but I've seen something else I want, so it's up for sale. The previous owner had stacked knobs fitted, but the original controls come with the bass, and it's proper SKB Fender case. £700. I CAN post, but I'd rather meet somewhere (within reason) as I travel up and down the country for work, but if you live in Cornwall or Dundee then that might be an issue [b]WIthdrawn[/b].....It's way to awesome to let go. I'll find the money another way.
  20. Geddy's just the cat's pyjamas isn't he?
  21. Cool thanks for that, just got, kettle's on, sorted. Beats Dickinsons Real Deal everytime.
  22. Mexican version I think?
  23. Oh didn't I say? I want another Stingray.
  24. [quote name='Hutton' timestamp='1355332016' post='1897085'] Well there you are. You see the problem is that we all come to this from our different experiences. I played a MIM 50s RI Precision and thought that it played horrible and sounded not a patch on my other precisions. [/quote] Each to their own
  25. In answer to the OP. No. However many of the points raised above give very good reasons as to why the bass is priced up there. If it was MY bass, and I was selling it on here, I'd ask around a grand at the very most, while expecting to accept an offer of around £900. It's not worth any more than that in my opinion. "Old" (subjective) basses are overpriced, just because they're getting on a bit automatically makes them more valuable. I've had a couple of 70s Fenders that have been rubbish. My MIM 50s RI Precision batters them all on all counts, and at a fraction of the cost.
