    Thanks chaps, yes one of those rare ebay bargains - it's got a slightly deeper neck compared to my JVs but much lighter in weight - its a classy bass and I would've happily paid more, these 90s MIJs are well worth scouting for.

    [quote name='OliverBlackman' timestamp='1341619473' post='1722061'] the bridge saddles are different to my tokai. Looks older if anything and i think mines an '86 [/quote] In the original ad he says that the saddles have been changed, also it would be an earlier model.

    I think that honor should go to Mr deanovw but I'd be happy to deputise if necessary!

    [quote name='Mr Bassman' timestamp='1341602897' post='1721791'] I'd say the neck at least is [url="http://hank75.blogspot.co.uk/2009/09/tokai-jazz-sound-1983.html"]Tokai[/url] judging by the machines 50 year old Fender machines look like this [attachment=112384:photo-11.JPG] [/quote] Agreed as soon as I saw the heads I thought Tokai Jazz Sound. Tokai also rather cheekily used an L prefix on their early MIJ serial numbers. Approach with caution.

    [quote name='jcater' timestamp='1341575769' post='1721142'] I have a 1977 Precision exactly the same as this which i bought new - £300 in Denmark street back in the summer of 77. Although i have retired it from gigs it is still my first choice for any studio trips. I think the price for this is really good value. I cannot believe that it has not already gone. jeff [/quote] Thanks for the kind words Jeff - I think it's on it's way though!

    Epiphone Sidewinder 'mudbucker' pickup for sale £22 incl postage in the UK. It's in very good condition. Here's a picture of one on an EB3 bass. http://www.music123.com/bass/epiphone-ltd-ed-worn-eb-3-electric-bass-guitar

    You wouldn't be interested in a part trade with my Kasuga Rickenfacker would you? I think this looks a very lovely bass.

    I have a no name custom Jazz bass with active pickups if you are interested. It was put together by a luthier and plays well, sounds even better and it's well made.

    [quote name='Rayman' timestamp='1341491197' post='1719910'] It's a fabulous example, I've seen it in the wood so to speak. Bargain. [/quote] Cheers Russ yes it's a beauty and I think the price is fair for what is a very playable and well constructed 70s era bass.

    To the top!

    [quote name='Stag' timestamp='1341355209' post='1717790'] Thought you sold this old bean? Is this back up with a vengeance? [/quote] I have a potential buyer who is coming to play it this weekend hopefully but it's still a bit tentative so I thought I'd give it a bump for insurance purposes!

    [quote name='Linus27' timestamp='1341350204' post='1717660'] That so looks like my old bass. May I ask where you got it from and how long you have had it. I think I sold mine around 2001/2002 on Ebay. [/quote] I got it from a localish musician from the Greater Manchester area who said he had owned it for many years.

    [quote name='Jimelliottbassist' timestamp='1341347408' post='1717590'] Me too. Serious gasssss. [/quote] Seriously good bass!

    [quote name='Bigwan' timestamp='1341327768' post='1717109'] Birth year precision... Not half tempted, but alas I'm brassic... [/quote] Like so many of us I'm afraid!

    Now with a small picture

    This is a Fender USA 1977 Precision, it features a maple fingerboard & original natural finish ash body. The bass weighs in at around 9.9lbs so not too hefty for a 70s era bass. Gone

    [quote name='discreet' timestamp='1341135064' post='1714058'] This 'duckface' meme had passed me by entirely, and I wish it had passed me by completely! Is this what the world has come to? PRESS THE BUTTON, SOMEBODY! PRESS IT NOW!! [url="http://www.rounds.com/blog/25-worst-cases-duckface/"]http://www.rounds.com/blog/25-worst-cases-duckface/[/url] [/quote] Same here - I asked my girls about it and they were also none the wiser.....however neither of them are of the orange spray tan giant butterfly eyelash type either.

    [quote name='Chris Horton' timestamp='1341127920' post='1713985'] Are these bass guitars any good to play ? [/quote] I got one exactly like this for my girlfriend a year or so back, it is actually a nice bass to play and sounds very punchy, it has a short scale and is small so perfect for her as she is petite( makes me think the girl in the eBay pic must be very very tiny ). It has a 'Duncan designed' pickup on it I believe was original to the brand. I keep threatening to use it at a gig for a laugh.The strange thing is that it weighs a ton and it's really difficult to get a comfortable strap position. I reckon the girl in the advert looks fed up because it's so damn heavy....

    Jedson were an import brand, not very well made and with cheap hardware and electrics, I think it's over priced.

    Hi I managed to get this as the seller was fairly local to me, football was on, not much info on the listing so I took a gamble and got a bargain I think! It's a '94 'made in Japan' virtually mint and super light, plays really well, I gigged it last night and got real compliments on the sound of it. This will be my primary gigging bass for the moment - I've been getting a bit worried about taking my '82 JV out to rowdy pub gigs lately!
