    Wish you were local so I could try this out. P bass pickup with Jazz neck is what I'd like. And just sold my P bass yesterday.

    I thought they were flats. Flats on a Stingray sound so cool. [quote name='musicman1' post='1278944' date='Jun 22 2011, 07:40 PM']its strung with DR hi beams that are about 1 year old so they are really dead, just the way i like it [/quote]

    Sounds great, what's it strung with?
  4. Quatschmacher
    Sold.
  5. Quatschmacher
    Not to tempt fate, but it seems I have a sale pending.
  6. Quatschmacher
    Bump.
  7. Quatschmacher
    It may happen soon as I'm getting more interest from people of late.
  8. Quatschmacher
    Bump.

    What's the nut width on this?
  10. Quatschmacher
    Check out a Stingray with the SLO Special neck. It's basically a Sterling profile neck (1.5" nut) but standard Stingray headstock and body.

    No worries. This is the music that finally made me realise I needed a P bass in my life. I almost bought a CIJ 51 P from Electro Music it was a real bargain, but was holding out for the one I have now.

    If I throw in a free pint of my blood and the shirt off my back am I more likely to get a bite?

    Check out Bill Withers records with Larry Dunlap (he plays the tele-style P bass):

    [quote name='PaulDumbell' post='1264141' date='Jun 10 2011, 04:58 PM']all black 3 EQ with maple neck[/quote] Sorry for the confusion, I actually meant the OP's bass, but because I forgot to state that and the fact that my post came right after yours it did seem like I was asking about the Stingray. Oops.
  15. Quatschmacher
    Maple or rosewood board? Presumably natural body?
  16. Quatschmacher
    There was a guy who put up an ad in the wanted section yesterday who was looking for a fretless jazz and a CIJ was on his list.
  17. Quatschmacher
    Sure this is a great bass. This is the combo I'd get if I were getting one. If someone were to buy my P I may well be interested. Free bump.
  18. Quatschmacher
    You could try this one with a 40mm nut: [url="http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=127715"]http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=127715[/url]

    Check out this Youtube clip of a recent Jools Holland episode, it is hilarious. Fantastic to see McCoy Tyner on there, check out Jools's face when the musicians run completely over their allotted time.

    [quote name='bassmanjake123' post='1196817' date='Apr 12 2011, 02:04 PM']hello there Just a question is the bass all original. And is the fender name on the headstock one that you've put on yourself ? is it a USA made one as well ? many thanks jake[/quote] Bass is all original (that includes the headstock decal). "CIJ" means "Crafted In Japan" so, no, it is not a USA made bass. Have a search around on the forum and you'll find a lot of info about these models.

    [quote name='Beedster' post='1182367' date='Mar 30 2011, 03:41 PM']There's something quite cool about a guy on a bass forum selling a keyboard to buy a new flute [/quote] Yes, bit odd, I know. Bass was the first instrument I took up, but flute is actually my first (i.e. main) instrument. Piano is something I use to compose but I am far from being called a pianist so it's the thing I have to sacrifice in order to get a new flute. [quote name='Dodge' post='1182972' date='Mar 31 2011, 08:39 AM']Location?[/quote] Sorry about the late reply on this - I forgot to track the topic so only read the replies today. I'm in Sheffield.

    Sorry for the [url="http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=127715&hl=cij"]shameless plug[/url].

    Like many people, I got into jazz via Kind of Blue; a music teacher gave me a tape with that one one side and Jaco's self-titled album one the other. It was Cannonball and Trane that got me started. The same teacher gave me a few compilations with Mingus (Goodbye Pork Pie Hat), Silver (Song For My Father) and loads of other great stuff and this was enough to set me on my journey. [quote name='Mr H' post='1192336' date='Apr 7 2011, 10:03 PM']Eventually I bought a Charles Mingus compilation which featured Eric Dolphy and that was pretty much it - got loads of Mingus/Dolphy recordings over the next few years. Eric Dolphy is probably my favourite musician.[/quote] Nice to see another Dolphy fan. Eric is also one of my favourite musicians, though it took me several years before I really got into him. I bought out to Out To Lunch not long after getting into jazz because I was exploring flute players. I really wasn't into it but kept going back to it over the course of about six years before I finally got it. Incidentally, if you're a fan of Eric's bass clarinet playing you owe it to yourself to check out Louis Sclavis (if you haven't already).

    So so tempted. I love my Sterling but would really love to have this in order to have the bridge with mutes. If I knew I could sell mine on straight away and not lose money I'd do it.
  25. Quatschmacher
    Good job this isn't a UV70 or HPJ otherwise I'd have probably given in to temptation by now. Have a free bump.
